"When it comes to voice acting for The Legend of Zelda series, there are mixed opinions. To such an extent, that Nintendo may never be able to take that risk.
There are those who are satisfied with the grunts, language-like sounds, bells, whistles, and exclamations. They don’t want full voice acting.
There are those who are satisfied with the above, but only for Link. They want other characters in the world to have a vocal narrative.
There are those who want the full game voice acted. Link and all. They feel it’s time for Nintendo to take the risk."
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
Make voice acting in the game optional.
Adopt a strong and confident teenage voice.
Keep his narrative rare, short, and to the point.
Just stop dragging your feet and do it right.
Eh, I'd prefer Link stay mute. I mean I'm all for voice acting for the characters that are actually talking, but for Link himself let's leave it alone. The TV show is more than enough damage, if you know what I mean.
I like the idea of it being optional. But unfortunately, if Nintendo ever does this, they'll make a big deal out of it, so making it optional would defeat the purposes of doing it in the first place for them. Kind of like the controls for Skyward Sword...
I can't see it happening, don't get me wrong they could do it really well but Link is the quintessential silent protagonist, even his name refers to the fact that we are supposed to be experiencing the events he goes through as if we are in his shoes, having him talk would break that link and he would just end up being another mouthy hero instead of a of an avitar for us to have respond in the way we want.
another article about zelda written by an ignorant!
Link doesn't talk, it's like this and it will always be like this.
