Nintendo Gaming / Any news on next GB Zelda?

« on: September 07, 2003, 09:59:33 AM »

Has anybody heard anything about the next GameBoy Zelda?  I thought I heard about something called The Triforce Gods, but I think that turned out to be the Four Swords redo-thingy.  I know everybody's waiting for WW2 (myself included), but I think that the GB Zeldas were pretty sweet too.  If anybody's heard anything, give me a heads-up.

Yeah I definetly wanted to get it when it first came out, but all I heard was that it was crap.  Once it goes down to like 15 bucks around here I might get it.

I will definetly be getting Starcraft:Ghost.  Everything about it just rocks and there is no way Blizzard would put out a game that was sub-par.  But I hadn't heard any of these rumors that it wasn't coming out on the Cube!  Now I'm sad.

If Link takes the Master Sword out of Ganon's head, he'll revive him just like he freed the monsters in the castle when he pulled out the sword in WW.  I think that there will be a new villan, so no Ganon means no Master Sword.

MM did have a 'master' sword, but not THE Master Sword.  Unlike in OoT, where you had to find the Master Sword, in MM you took your sword to the smothy and if you had enough cash, he'd upgrade it two times.
If WW2 is going to be what MM was to OoT, then maybe it won't have the Master Sword.  But MM wasn't a real sequel, so if WW2 is a sequel, it might have just about everything the same as WW except in a new place.

NWR Feedback / No Metroid?!?

« on: August 15, 2003, 07:17:17 PM »

I was kinda surprised that there is no Metroid discussion in the game-specific forums.  I mean isn't that a big enough series?  Believe me, I would start it, but I've only just started playing Metroid, so I still know like nothing about the series.  Are there really not enough Metroid fans out there to start a discussion?  That's kinda sad.  Where are all you guys?

I think that the games up to this point have been fine without voice acting.  Maybe that's just cuz I'm an old-school gamer, but if Link starts talking in the next game, that will totally change the game.  Perhaps talking in cutscenes would be ok, but not in everyday conversation with NPCs.  I mean, Link has looked kinda dumb in the cutscenes before, just silently standing there.  But then the game would be awkward since characters would only talk some of the time.

I'd like to see the next Zelda to be half-land, half-water.  That would be cool.  But I don't think that the boat will be back.  I wasn't too clear, but wasn't the boat really the King of Hyrule in a different form?  If he was, then he definetly won't be in WW2, cuz he stayed behind, remember?  It would be cool if your mode of transportation in WW2 could go on land and water, like Dimitri the Dodongo in the two Oracle games.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:idea for a Zelda game

« on: August 06, 2003, 05:59:49 PM »

All right, I have to admit that would be cool.  But then it wouldn't be a Zelda game anymore.  Zelda isn't a RTS(real-time strategy) game.  Now if you could put Zelda characters in a RTS as secret characters that would kick ass.

Hey I never said that I didn't like Majora's Mask.  I thought that it was a great game, too.  I just meant that I wanted to fight a better boss than the Mask.

I gotta agree with u there shorty.
How many people really want to see the end of this story?  It's just stupid and dosen't belong in a Zelda fan forum.  Go trash Zelda somewhere else.

You guys bring up a lot of good points, and I'm gonna try to hit the big ones.

I think that for WW2, Link and Tetra/Zelda will come to some new land that was created by the seeds of the Deku Tree.  If this is true, you can bet that their new foe will most likely be some spirit who had dwelt there for centuries since Hyrule was first flooded.  He'll abduct something/someone and Link must retrieve it/him/her or lift some curse from the land.  It's true that there have been successful games without Ganon, but how many people want to face another Majora's Mask?  I think that though the games without Ganon have been good, the best ones had Ganon.  This leads me to my next point:How many Zelda games have not had the Master Sword? (That's an honest question, I haven't played all of the games.)  In order for Link to get the Master Sword back, he'll have to return to Hyrule and pull out the sword.  This will most likely resurrect Ganon, who will reveal that the entire quest up to this point  was a trick so that he could be revived.

On minor notes:
1)  I agree that Termina would look good cel shaded, but I don't want to go back there in a new game, remake or not.
2)  I think that if WW2 is truly a sequel, characters such as the Rito brought back to further recreate the connection.
3)  I like the theory that Link's Awakening takes place after WW.  Maybe it even comes after WW2 and bridges to the next game.
4)  I think that WW2 will be fine with this engine, but I don't wanna see a WW3.  After this one, I would like to see a new concept with a new engine, and just maybe, those 'real' graphics we all know the GameCube is capable of.  (Picture Zelda with the graphics of StarFox Adventures.)
