It's like a dictorship asking it's citizens how often they vote to determine whether or not to hold elections.

[X] Handheld video games over the Internet (online gaming)"
Is that even possible with the current handhelds right now?

You've got a PC, Ian.

At first I was appauled...then I thought of an MMORPG set in the Zelda universe where you create a person of any race (I'm thinking of the races and world of OOT but any will do) and a huge smile broke across my face.

MMORPG's are the worst genre of anything ever.
Post by: Ian Sane on May 11, 2005, 03:01:54 PM
Maybe that's the game. You go around killing all the online people ruining your Zelda game.
"Who's that guy? It's an online person! Kill it to receive a heart piece!"
So, yeah, I didn't pick Zelda or Metroid. I don't need those games perverted by current market trends.
Post by: reverend_tod on May 11, 2005, 03:06:21 PM
Metroid? Why WOULDN'T metroid have an online death match? If the Revolution release doesn't it'll be one of Nintendo's biggest mistakes ever. Just look at Halo and Halo2 on xBox's live's popularity.
PS: Ian Sane; do you post on the Operationivy.com forums??

What the hell? You already feel that Metroid Hunters has tarnished the series, so how would adding online make that any different? It would benefit all the people interested in it, and it wouldn't hurt you any. Same with Zelda; we know there's a Four Swords title in the works, so how could adding online functionality make things any worse?
That doesn't make any sense. For everybody who voted against those two going online, I NOW HATE YOU even more

I don't want the whole industry being perverted by current market trends. One day you guys will understand.

That's the point. By saying that I don't want Metroid to be online I'm voicing my disagreement with Nintendo turning it into an FPS to please the genre sheep who can't understand how Metroid Prime can be viewed from a first person perspective yet not play like Doom. I don't want any major multiplayer focus for Metroid so of course I'm not going to say I want Metroid online.
As for Zelda I like Four Swords a lot but this doesn't say "Four Swords". It just says "Zelda" and I don't want the main Zelda series made online for no good reason. If they misinterpret my response as me not wanting Four Swords online that's too bad. Next time they should be more specific. I think it's worth them not misinterpreting my response as "bring on the Zelda MMO".

Yeah that's exactly what I do.
And you haven't shown me one good reason that the Zelda series or any other would be ruined by being online.
If it is an entirely seperate game then who cares? Will it detract from playing the main, one player adventure that the games normally are? If you say it will then you had better give me a reason because I simply don't believe it will and can't think of a single reason it would.
Plus, if you don't like it--who's forcing you to play it?

But if I hate it, who's making me a new Zelda series?
