i don't care if zelda '05 was made so mature that it got an M rating. i mean, don't get me wrong, i'm not a big fan of excesive amounts of blood gushing all over the place. but if zelda was a bit more mature i think that could definetly help nintendo's "young" image. I"m not saying ALL zelda games. but console zelda's could use a little more sex. maybe violence too. i definetly think that zelda games that aren't main console games should stay with an E rating so we can get the young ones hooked on the big N early.
and erm, a side note... if the revolution is supposed to be a..... revolution without "sitting in front of the TV with a controller" as previously mentioned on this thread. this has led me to also think about the posiblitly of virtual reality. I've played Virtual Reality in some fancy arcades and they have all pretty much sucked. it was kind of like a pipe dream of nerds back in the tron days. the motion sensing was very slow, when you turned your head the world around you would kind of drag to where it was supposed to be.
But with the revolution comming in what? '06? couldn't this really be the time for VR to become norm, (please don't even bring up virtualboy, that is just sad) i found this little interesting article over at
engadget basically from what i understand is this company went from your 'basic' 3D LCD that requires you view from a certain angle or 'sweet-spot' then they perfected it, making in 3D from any angle. and put it on a cell phone. Now they have a goggle-type heads up display that is 3D for the phone. i don't really get it. but if this is all happening in japan, and nintendo is japanese...... dammit i want a true 3D zelda.
i think from a development standpoint it would be as easy as programming for another camera angle, then send one image to each eye. duh. i guess what it really comes down too is how much of a dork you want to look like wearing 3D VR goggles on your face. maybe we should just wait for brain or retina implants, so as to save us having to look like geeks. (not that i mind i'm just being observant of humanity's need for practicality and attractivness)
sorry to have ranted. notice how i made paragraphs to save you getting a headache? *whitespace*
