MonsterVine - The Next Zelda: What We Know So Far

MonsterVine writes "We already know that a new Zelda is in development, and for what few truths we do know about it, there's an infinite amount of false information, rumors, and speculation.

Enter earthbounding. Over the course of several months, s/he has pieced together what we know to be true or could possibly be true based on what few clues there are from the Nintendo team–what you are about to see could very well be what the next Zelda (which I will refer to as "New Zelda") could be like."

I have a feeling it's gonna be all hype, no delivery, a la Twilight Princess

[Nathan Drake]

But remember;TP was a Gamecube game first and a Wii game second,so the upcoming Zelda game might do a complete 180 in terms of gameplay and visuals

[Wenis]

I wonder what art direction they went this time with the game. Hope its more colorful than TP

[OlvaR]

what was wrong with TP? i find it awesome

[Tewi-Inaba]

TP was awesome.
I hope they make a new Cellshaded Zelda like Wind Waker.
or atleast Use Toon Links model in Brawl for a realistic toon-ish world

[LeGenDx]

and my money is urs nintendo

[GVON]

yep,I mean I can't wait for all the ps3 games next year,but at the end of the day give me a proper Nintendo game and I'll take it over anything.

[qface64]

im sure you were too busy getting people's bank account details and sort code to even play TP lol

[LeGenDx]

i dont have a wii right now, but im a big zelda fan. like really big zelda fan, i probably played them all an loved them all. so yeah ill get a wii if zelda comes out :)

[LethalToxins]

Yeah, what's wrong with TP? I liked it. Some parts of the story weren't the greatest, but it still satisfied. But then again, I played the GC version. Might that have been better?

Oh well, I'll still look forward to this game. You can always count on Zelda.

I think a game focussed on Shiek would be awesome. I remember playing OoT and thinking, "Feck Link, I wanna play as Shiek!"

...but I didn't like Twilight Princess. I've loved and played every single last Zelda game that's come out, even on the DS...except for TP. I don't know what the hell happened. It was a Zelda game. It wasn't bad or anything...I just couldn't get into it. I played for a couple of hours...put it aside...tried to get into it again months later and still couldn't. Mind you, that could just be the Wii. I bought mine at launch and must say, my wife and I don't like the Wii controllers. Pointing at the screen all the time is kinda annoying. I'm selling my Wii to a guy in my office because I came to the sad realization that I just don't like it and I'm just never going to play it when I have my PS3 and 360 to choose. I tried Zak and Wikki, RE4, MOH: Heros 2, Zelda, Mario Galaxy, Warioworld(guh!), Raving Rabbits, gave Wii-sports a go. The only game I'll miss is World of Goo.

The new Zelda won't be in HD, and thats a fact. Oh yeah, and you will probably get tendonitus from swinging your control around like its a sword. Oh yeah, I too liked TP, but the controls were really unresponsive and gimicky, it almost ruined the game for me. I sold my Wii for a psp and a 100 bucks. Maybe Ill buy a new nintendo when its in full hd and the controls aren't so gimicky.

"and you will probably get tendonitus from swinging your control around like its a sword."

just because you are too fat to lift a wiimote to truly enjoy a wii zelda game doesnt mean we all are... I can play the wii fine

[Tewi-Inaba]

run at 720p Native?
:) Not truly HD right

[DA_SHREDDER]

Cause if she did, then you would see that the highest resolution the Wii can have is 480p. I spent 35 bucks on a component cord to find out that there wasn't a difference between 480p or 480i. The Wii was the worst investment I ever had in my gaming history. I was better off just buying a regular NES, N64, and Gamecube and bought the old school games I really wanted instead of having to wait 3 years to get an arcade classic off of the Wii store. There is nothing but garbage on the system. The wii is a fad,, nothing more , nothing less. You people are part of the problem, not the solution. Keep buying your over priced Gamecube,, its your mommies money. LOL>

[Gr81]

I used to wonder how certain ppl come into a post and have only 2 or 3 bubbles. I wonder know more. Posters like Da shredder...unreal.

Anyway, TP was in no way a bad game, just wasn't as good as previous versions (OoT & Alttp)Though I did prefer TP to the WW in everyway, especially in art direction. There is no such thing as a bad Zelda game. Just very good ones, and the great ones. (again minus the Cd-i sh!t).

[linkmaster95]

At least the horrific Cd-i games were not developed by Nintendo, that would be disgraceful.

[EndHawkstrike]

Adventure is my favourite genre.If the new Zelda game delivers than I will pick up a copy,butI am more excited about Team Icos ps3 project.
