In a recent Iwata Asks interview about Link's Crossbow Training, Shigeru Miyamoto mentioned his love for First-Person Styled video games.
" I think it is more comfortable, more natural. We are creatures of habit. We don’t look at our feet when we’re walking around, and we're always trying desperately to take in the scenery while we're living our lives. So, even in these games I want people to be able to get really into the 3D geography, so it feels like you’re really there, since I think it’s a really natural thing to be able to look around while you’re walking. At first when we were developing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, I even proposed using a first-person perspective."
Could this be a foreshadowing of the Wii Zelda that is currently in development? Remember, Shigeru Miyamoto himself said that Twilight Princess was going to be the last Zelda of it's kind. Whether that means a new control scheme (motion) or a First-Person Adventure, is not known yet.
