Short Pause: "Nintendo's E3 2015 Digital Event is in the books, and Reggie and company jammed a lot of games into this 50 minute presentation! StarFox Zero was finally unveiled, The Legend of Zelda: TriForce Heroes made its debut on the 3DS, and we got release dates for Yoshi's Wooly World and Super Mario Maker. How did Nintendo fare this year overall? Brent, Ben and Bender break down all of the announcements in our latest reaction video."
Super Mario Maker's last level has been beaten, after Trimming the Herbs was revealed to be totally bogus.
Screen Rant, "The return of one controversial character could have an incredible effect on The Legend of Zelda, prompting the introduction of new features."
Honestly I really changed my mind on Fi with the remaster because they didn't make her interrupt your gameplay every 5 seconds, that drastically changed my views on her
Technically she's in ToTK but obviously can't take any other form than the sword she was made into. Also the companion feature has been done plenty of times in Zelda, I don't think it'll add anything new. If anything should be brought back it should be the Minish.
Matt from We Game Daily writes "The Legend of Zelda series has gone in a different direction. One which, try as I have, I just can’t get on board with. Here is why I think Zelda should return to its 3D roots."
Amen! A good, tight, Zelda game with a focus on dungeons and puzzles. Let people have the new style Zelda if you gotta, but let us have the OoT style games too. That's not without precedent either, the handheld 2D Zelda's in the style of A Link to the Past etc have coexisted alongside the 3D Zelda's before
As much as I like BoTW, TotK, I need my traditional Zelda games as well, I could not endlessly play the open world Zelda games, plus it's harder to keep those fresher than the traditional games.
BotW was just as fresh to the franchise as OoT was. TokT was great but the next LoZ would have to move from that formula to be fresh again. There's only so much they can do with the hardware. I think they focused too much on making the world big instead impactful. I felt the world was sort of empty and repetitive in TotK, sure there was a lot to do but no more difference a Ubisoft game..
Wind Waker had a perfect balance of open world and a cool, well hand-crafted design. Maybe try to keep the open world but put in effort to make more memorable story driven quests and locations.
Is it just me, or was Star Fox seriously underwhelming with his gameplay review? I really hope this game looks better closer to launch. Xenoblade Chronicles X looks to take up a lot of my time during the winter months, along side Fallout 4. And I agree with Bender (in the video), the Metroid Prime game announced for 3DS (both of them actually) is kind of a joke. Can we get a proper Metroid game, please Nintendo?
