I don't play my Wii with anybody else locally, so no online play is a huge disappointment to me. Hopefully the single player is good.

I'm not surprised to hear that a new Zelda is in the works but if they don't have anything to show now then it probably won't be released until another two years or so. Still, it is good to know it is coming eventually.

The four players in NSMBWii is that complex? Given that games like Conduit and Mario Kart Wii have 12-person online... but then again, Brawl supported up to four and that had some bad lag. Given that Brawl depends a lot on accuracy, where Mario Kart Wii deals with its lag by making attacks and positions less precise, NSMBWii seems to depend on accuracy as well, from what I've seen.

I don't know what happened with Brawl. When I played it online a few weeks after launch it was fine, I never experienced lag until I tried playing it online again a few months later (normally lag goes down over time, not gets worse).

Me too, I played a lot of lag free Brawl with friends in the NW, SW, SE, and me in the NE (As far away as you can get in the US) without incident. Brawl is capable of it, but it's a narrow window and a lot of things can gunk it up....

Thinking about it, it might be because Europe and Australasia were added to the mix: more distances to cover. The lag could've been made less worse if there was the option to play regionally rather than only worldwide altogether.

Miyamoto, you fantastic person. You're gonna make me end my boycott.

Odd that there was no mention of Pikmin 3.

New Zelda is hardly an announcement. New Zelda is inevitable. It could be years away. I'm happy that it's adult Link though. The Celda fans have the DS games so I think it's only fair that realistic Zelda gets the consoles.

No Pikmin 3 info of any sort is disappointing. Nintendo has shown some 2010 titles at E3 this year. So is Pikmin 3 a 2011 title? Had they just started it last year?

Realistically though I didn't really expect Miyamoto to be announcing all sorts of games at this thing. That's what the conference is for. I think last year was an exception because Nintendo **** the bed and Miyamoto felt pressure to say SOMETHING to calm things down.

Just imagine how epic next years E3 could be.

Galaxy 2, Metroid, Zelda, Pikmin 3

I include Galaxy and Metroid because they arn't playable to my knowledge.

I thought that idiotic term "Celda" died years ago when the game got universal praise from critics and sold millions of copies, thus proving haters wrong.

nickmitch · « **Reply #34 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:23:11 PM »

I love Celda games.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #35 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:24:38 PM »

So do I, Wind Waker is my second favorite Zelda game (after Twilight Princess). I just hate the term Celda.

Mop it up · « **Reply #36 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:25:21 PM »

I love games which pass off poor graphics as a stylistic choice.

Smoke39 · « **Reply #37 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:27:34 PM »

Please don't turn this into another argument about which art style is better. Different people prefer different styles, the end. GAWD. O:<

Stratos · « **Reply #38 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:34:57 PM »

I actually view Celda as a term of endearment now for the game. I like it so I call it and games like it Celda. It's not a negative word when I use it.

nickmitch · « **Reply #39 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:42:55 PM »

I feel like the graphical style really changed the feel the game and the term "Celda" makes it distinct from the rest of the series like it is.

Mop it up · « **Reply #40 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:44:54 PM »

Who first coined the term "Celda"? Wasn't it fans of the game? I didn't think it was meant as a derogatory term...

The new Link will have a beard.

Just you wait and see...

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #42 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:48:23 PM »

It was from people who were bashing the game just because it was gonna use cel-shading (the same people bashing a game before they even played it themselves).

Maybe it could become a good term. "Yankee" started out as a insult that the British would call Americans, now it's a term of pride.

Stratos · « **Reply #43 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:51:24 PM »

Yeah, some forums actually censored the word 'Celda' at one point because of the flame wars that ensued from it.

Glad you came up with Yankee there, TJ, as another real life example came to my mind that I'd rather not bring up that went through a similar transition.

Same with the word n*gga.

everybody uses it as a term of endearment now... well except the racist.

That reminds me of a drawing I saw by somebody who could never beat the first Zelda game. The drawing was Link as a senior, because the person imagined that that's how old Link would get by the time he could beat the game...

Everyone does? I thought only black people could use it or else it was racist.

The term dike also got retaken as a normal term, though that one started out OK but was taken over by others for negativity and then retaken recently.

Would he loose his girlie charm and replace it with rugged manliness?
