Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild ended up stealing the show at E3 this year, against all odds- it was so great that even Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida took note of the game, stating his excitement at wanting to play the final release. But he wasn’t the only notable gaming executive who took note of the game, and how great it looked- Xbox head Phil Spencer apparently thought the game looked great, too.

Zelda is apparently not the only thing he is excited about, either. It seems as though he is also, much like all of us, waiting to see what Nintendo has in store with the NX, their enigmatic new machine that is due out in March next year. “When Nintendo launches a new console it’s an exciting time for the industry,” he said, before adding, “And Zelda looked good at E3.”

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is due out next year on the Wii U and Nintendo NX.
