Weird. I just got done beating Link's Awakening it sounds like they're making a new tiny Zelda game. I'm in the middle of playing Superstar Saga and just watched this. I should go play Earthbound next.
I don't know, Wikipedia has been updated with this but not much details so far. It seems from this couple minutes that there's definitely some kind of AD inspiration, maybe even some folks from the AD team made it on to this dev team.
That's very cool, but I think they should have waited a bit, maybe even move it to the Switch 2. Three Mario RPGs in a year is a lot, maybe space them out a bit more to prevent fatigue, you know?
Don't worry, we'll all be able to purchase the game on Switch 2, eventually. And anyone who missed it or wants to play it again will pick it up. Everybody wins, except our wallets!
