The Future Of Zelda?

CriousGamer Writes.....Fans have been somewhat disappointed with the last delivery of the series, and many have said that the same formula would be fairly spent, Nintendo has revealed that Twilight Princess (GC / Wii) would be the last Zelda as it what we know. But what is the meaning of this statement?

Like I said prior, I won't play another Zelda until multiplayer is programmed in. I must be able to deathmatch with Link and Ganon in a gladiator arena or it's just not worth $60. Zelda's single-player campaign just doesn't cut it anymore. It's fine it's there, but in today's gaming climate, Zelda MUST have online play. </sarcasm>

1.3 - Must have online play? No
But I would love it, and there are definitely lots of possibilities, especially if you consider the amount of weapons there are in zelda. Bombs, boomerang, sword and arrow would make for awesome deathmatches. Capture the Triforce, use magic, whoever gets zelda the most time, "Epona Kart", sword fight, etcetera =) I mean there are already multiplayer games with Zelda characters, sheik, ganon, link and Zelda included. Smash Bros anyone?

Some games could definitely benefit from multiplayer. I still don't know why Uncharted came out without multiplayer when it could have surpassed Gears of War if you consider what you can do in the game in terms of gameplay. Treasure Hunt, Pirate shootouts, flag stealing, recover the kidnapped girl... seriously.

lol i agree, people are stupid for putting so much emphasis on multiplayer, let us not forget how valuable trophies/achievements are because the next zelda won't be the same unless i get an award, "you have achieved the care bear award for unlocking more than 10 heart containers", lol

2 - nintendo are kings when it comes to
game development,super mario galaxy is without a doubt the greatest game in this generation in my pure honest opinion,every single second in smg is a 10\10,everytime I play it,I became fully immersed in a world full of pure gaming heaven,soundtrack,even the graphics of smg are amazing,amazing art,rock solid 60 frames\sec

super mario galaxy is a representation of how talented nintendo really is,it's just unbelievable 100\10

now....

I admit im little upsit with thier new casual thing and sometimes my emotion drives me to bash them but im heart,nintendi 4 ever,an idea just come across my mind about nintendo and thier future plans

see....

I got a feeling that they will announce a new wii hd soon,have effecient power to compete with 360\ps3 and also have wii motion plus AND KEEPING THE ORIGIBAL WII AS IT IS,both wii and wii 2 hd will sell a lot together and a new mindblowing zelda hd will be developed for it with motion plus which look to have infinte potential

who agrees with my theory?

im I crazy or something?

feel free to agree\disagree\reply :)

2.1 - 10 years in development
And miyamoto at the helm of the team. I say 10 years because Mario Galaxy is what "Mario 128" was supposed to be. And that game was in development after Mario 64 came out. Yeah, mario games are great, but there's a price to pay for that greatness, and that is waiting 5 f***ing LONG years for every god damned Mario game.

4 - I think Nintendo were hinting towards a
fully new Zelda for the Wii. With all the trimmings (1:1 motion etc.)
And Twilight princess was epic. For me it is one of the few games this gen that I enjoyed going threw. The story and ending were really well done and was under-rated by the American 360 loving media. MGS4, Twilight Princess, SMG and KZ2 share that epic game aura that carries that game.

*Fun fact for N4G users- SMG and Twilight Princess are the two HIGHEST rated 1st party exclusives THIS CURRENT GEN. on metacritic and gamerankings* Sorry fanbots but its true.

Miyamoto has already expressed the Zelda series' need to become more accessible to a broader group of players, stating that "lot of people who bought the Wii are not necessarily the types of people who are interested in playing that kind of game."

not too good news but lets hope they change their minds

Rambi, swinging your sword with Motion plus is also more accessible,
It doesn;t mean it will become worse, if they use 1:1 controls it could become better and accessible.

Good point. And this is Miyamoto we're talking about. He was the first person to point out that casual games are harder to make as it is more difficult to keep the gamers' interest. I hope u are right.

response to #1
Jeez.. I didn't notice the sarcasm at the beginning as I was already so angry. I never realized how mad I could get seeing someone mess with that franchise.

I'm hopeful that the next game will include some changes and maybe steer away from the whole repetitive dungeon crawling experience. A little is okay, but the whole game functioning in that manner would probably frustrate me, and I'm pretty patient and enjoy the gameplay in the Zelda and FF series. I'm mentioning FF because they have an issue with repetitive gameplay as well, only worse. (In my opinion. I think it's the battle music that gets to me.)

Also, I can't leave this reply without saying how.. poorly written... that article was.

" I'm hopeful that the next game will include some changes and maybe steer away from the whole repetitive dungeon crawling experience. "

Even it being " little" it would kill the franchise since every game has pretty much been about that.

Every Zelda game is the same sure but it does not make it a bad one, But i think they should stop target the fans with every title and start making a totally new experience with Zelda.

9 - Casual Versions
The statement: "lot of people who bought the Wii are not necessarily the types of people who are interested in playing that kind of game." is really what Nintendo is doing to anger its biggest fans. So does this mean that Nintendo needs to design a new system for hardcore gamers? Then these hardcore games can sell on that more advanced system and the Wii systems can continue selling to grandma?

This is the wrong attitude and the worst way to answer to hardcore fans. Oh damn, I guess there are other systems.
