It's a good thing there's a **** ton of great looking games from both Nintendo and third parties coming next year.
No, I mean something made by Retro themselves without Nintendo telling them to use one of their IPs. And it has to be something that would come out in America.
I dunno I'd like to see a Zelda done by retro.
Just cause Retro did good with turning Metroid into 3d doesn't mean Zelda needs to go to them.
Retro is based in Houston; I'm pretty sure anything made by them will get an American release.
Nintendo is abusing Zelda. I trust Retro far more than Nintendo right now.
Sin and Punishment 2 looks similar to a Starfox game, they are both on-rail shooters and Saki can now fly on some levels.
If you said Pokemon was getting abused, I would agree, but Zelda? Zelda games aren't put out that often, hardly abused at all. The real problem with Zelda is that it needs a drastic change to its gameplay to avoid becoming stale. If you think difficulty is the problem, this is not the series for you. All the Zelda games have been easy, II was just the exception.
That could be said of ANY game. A game is not fun when I have to enforce my own moral rules. I like it when I am free to use any technique I wish because the game difficulty actually calls for it.
Nintendo has explicitly stated that they're going to make Zelda "more accessable".
Yes. Zelda will now become an educational video game.
Those games weren't hard. I can fly through all those games easily with few deaths. TP was easier, but that's because all games today are easier, not just Nintendo's games. Consoles today have better and more responsive controls, clearer graphics that make it easier to see obstacles, and most companies are adding tutorials to their games so people understand it better. I doubt Retro could even make a new Zelda as hard as something like the original Mega Man.
I agree. Megaman is no longer a challenge for me but its a lot harder than most recent games. I swear.....why cant nintendo put difficulty settings on their
You doubt Retro could make one as hard as the original Mega Man? It's not that hard to make the game harder. Nintendo puts effort into dumbing it waaay down.
Seriously. Link to the Past was my first Zelda game and I thought it was FREAKING hard!!!
Really? It was my first game PERIOD, but that's what got me into hardcore gaming. The only hard thing is figuring out the puzzles and how to beat bosses. This is basically my favorite Zelda, and I find it really easy and I rarely die. And I would probably find the next Zelda easy even if they decide to make it harder. And accessibility =/= easy. It probably means the next Zelda will have a better control scheme using Motion Plus, and swinging a sword like real life is something that everyone understands. But Zelda is a very easy series, at least to me, so I don't expect a new Zelda game to challenge as much Mega Man 9 (and I'm very good at classic Mega Man games, btw, so MM9's difficulty shocked me).
Megaman 9 isn't hard... Wiley's castle is pretty tough but......
Yeah, it's really only the Wily stages and Wily himself, unless you use no powerups on some stages and bosses. Like Plug Man, who's the hardest to kill with the buster, or Tornado Man's stage without the Rush Jet.
