Nintendo Gaming / Re: People want a Majora's Mask 2? It's already here

Let me clarify. When I meant a 'Majora's Mask 2', I meant a game that doesn't take place in Hyrule, that doesn't have Ganon, the master sword, the Triforce, and many of the Zelda cliches and such. In other words:

WW is to PH

as

OoT is to MM.

In fact, they seemed to combine the best aspects of both Majora's Mask and Wind Waker in PH. Thus making it the ultimate Zelda spinoff.

So I just listened to the OoT 10th anniversary podcast (which was great btw). One thing that caught my ear, although this isn't anything new, and in fact seems has been getting more and more vocal, is the desire for wanting another  game in the Zelda series that's similar to Majora's Mask.


It's amazing to think that there would be such a backlash at something like Twilight Princess for being 'too similar' to Ocarina of Time. Sure, I could understand some people would be disappointed if they didn't like or hated Ocarina to begin with. But dang, I didn't think it would be THIS widespread!


In any case, I think people seemed to have missed something crucial in all this hubbub. The Majora's Mask 2 that many of you wanted has indeed already come out. The game is called: Phantom Hourglass. Oh, sure it's on a handheld, so it's not EXACTLY the MM2 that you may think, but it's pretty much the spiritual successor to that and Link's Awakening. Why do people choose to ignore this fact?
