- sixsicsix, on 10/30/2008, -6/+69Dear Miyamoto.
Please dont ***** up zelda.
thank you. - chaos7, on 10/30/2008, -2/+50good to know he likes Portal
- TimDigg, on 10/30/2008, -8/+56How about newer and fresher CHARACTERS!
- BobbyMC, on 10/30/2008, -5/+49Zelda is a series that has set itself up for plenty of innovation that has thus far not been used at all. At the most basic level, the actual legend of Princess Zelda is that every other generation Ganondorf thrusts himself back into the physical world to pursue the Triforce, and Zelda and Linka re reincarnated to stop him. Wind Waker was the only game to come close to milking this concept by setting itself in a time where Hyrule has been forgotten and buried beneath the sea. Nonetheless, all Zelda games so far have taken place in a medieval world when they could just as easily take place in the old west or...
The best place to start from for a completely original Zelda is to first dedicate yourself to placing it well enough outside of the typical Zelda time period that the manner of doing things is entirely different. Make an epic science fiction take on The Legend of Zelda and let the forgotten world of Hyrule come alive again under the influence of technology. Throw out the limitations of working with medieval weaponry and invent entirely new concepts.
Zelda is very large pool that Nintendo has so far only messed around in the shallow end of. There are a whole world of possibilities when you follow its established lore toward the inevitable conclusion.
(I'd like to add I wouldn't mind seeing a futuristic Zelda be the timeline ending either. Think Hellraiser 4 :P) - MrJagil, on 10/30/2008, -4/+39POKEMON MMORPG! is all i want for christmas.
- chaosblade77, on 10/30/2008, -1/+35I'd like to see a 3D Mario game not based around collecting stars (or any other item for that matter). That alone would refresh the Mario series quite a bit.
- trixyfox, on 10/30/2008, -1/+33How about a Pokemon MMORPG? The universe is perfect already.
- nerdherder, on 10/30/2008, -1/+32I would play Toad's Turret Defense.
Mario Party 83? Cmon thats not innovative at all... Make it Mario Party 97 and I'm in. - inactive, on 10/30/2008, -1/+30POKEMON SNAP 2
Oh... I ***** went there. - Enfenestrate, on 10/30/2008, -0/+29That's crazy talk
- Elranzer, on 10/30/2008, -0/+28Careful. That kind of talk brought us Fludd and Tingle.
- Elranzer, on 10/30/2008, -0/+26"Toad's Turret Defense"
Go on... - Rothbardosaurus, on 10/30/2008, -0/+25Doesn't Grand Theft Hyrule already exist? Link goes into whatever house he pleases, breaks all the furniture and takes all the money and gear, while the inhabitants just stand by and watch. He tears across the countryside harassing chickens, ruining shrubberies, digging up holes, and pretty much doing whatever the heck he wants. In one game he stole a horse!
I do think an open-ended game of Hylian mayhem in the style of GTA would be fun, though. - skywake, on 10/30/2008, -4/+28A New SMB style 2D Mario on Wii Ware I would love... but I don't think I would buy a full retail release. Especially considering we already got a decent 2D Mario on DS just a few years ago.
2D Metriod on the other hand..... - rocke86, on 10/30/2008, -5/+28Where is the freaking 3d pokemon rpg? It doesn't have to be as extensive as a rpg like oblivion but must hold the same quality as the gameboy games(also don't make it too kiddy, shoot for a T rating).
Also motion plus should of been released with Starfox Wii. Wii sports 2 just looks lame. - AngryAngryBrian, on 10/30/2008, -3/+26It has been nearly 100 years since Ganon last threatened the peaceful land of Hyrule. 100 years of prosperity and happiness that is all about to change. Now only one Hylian can stop the war that threatens to destroy his people.

Coming Spring of 2010 - scabbers, on 10/30/2008, -3/+25Hentai Zelda.
- creaturecool, on 10/30/2008, -0/+19Donkey Kong!
- reaper527, on 10/30/2008, -0/+19collecting coins is a must, as long as there is a semi-infinite number in the game, and they use the old 100 coins == 1 up concept.
i agree with you about collecting stars though - KayinAngel, on 10/30/2008, -1/+18I want a HD resolution, amazingly animated, 2D metroid.
I would buy 5 of them. - Elranzer, on 10/30/2008, -0/+17Owning a Wii, PS3 and 360 means you don't miss any exclusives (and don't delve into pathetic fanboy drama when the system you don't own gets something you want).
It's completely feasible to own all three systems if you have a job. You should try it, sometime. - iamdak, on 10/30/2008, -7/+24Just give mario a portal gun. Done.
- DarQraven, on 10/30/2008, -0/+17On one hand that's a pretty cool idea, but I think Miyamoto himself once said that Zelda is more a kind of feeling than a story for him. To be honest, the old fantasy setting of Hyrule is an integral part of that feeling.
It's kinda like Fable. It was a decent RPG/action game, but it's the setting and whole tone of the game that made it as fun as it was. I seriously doubt a sci-fi Zelda game would be able to do that.
Partially because a utopian vision of a futuristic world often involves steel, neon light...lots of it. In general it's a 'cold' setting/world, whereas the old Hyrule seems pretty lively and warm.
Besides, while we're on the topic of overused and tired settings, sci-fi would be #1 in that category. There are only 2 types of shooter games left today: World war 2, and sci-fi. There are some odd ones out like CoD4 or TF2, but that's it. - LocalDocal, on 10/30/2008, -0/+15Uh, Super Mario 64 was definitely about collecting stars.
- AtraNoxVII, on 10/30/2008, -0/+15You obviously haven't heard of Baby Mario.
- pattyman5000, on 10/30/2008, -2/+17My mom hated it and she's pretty good at Wii Bowling. Just sayin.
- inactive, on 10/30/2008, -0/+14He could still do Embryo Mario.
- russvan, on 10/30/2008, -0/+14Dude they would have to be out of their mind to release a T pokemon game, thats like the majority of the pokemon playing demographic GONE. But you're right, a full 3D RPG would be pretty sweet, I havent played in like 10 years but I would definitely get that.
- bigfatphony19, on 10/30/2008, -2/+16umm..Twilight Princess was amazing
- Harabeck, on 10/30/2008, -2/+15Picture this: A game set in the modern world, the name of it has nothing to do with Zelda. The main character is blond haired and blue eyed, but you just start out having a normal day. Then strange events start to unfold. Mysterious monsters attack, some nintendo fans may get a twinge of recognition of them but they cant quite place it. About 5 hours in, things are getting desperate and theres monsters all around, the main character is fleeing inside a museum. Hes about to die, but then... sees a rusted sword in a glass case and lunges for it. BAM! It glows and the rust falls away revealing the master sword. The player goes "WTF?! This is a Zelda game?! 0.o" Then things start to unfold showing the connections to the ancient races, and parallels to familiar characters show up, altered by the modern times of course.
That would kick ass. - BoostedAxela, on 10/30/2008, -1/+14Okami - the wonderful game no one played.
- geekfrom99, on 10/30/2008, -1/+14I can only dream.
- inactive, on 10/30/2008, -1/+14blasphermer
- Billistic, on 10/30/2008, -3/+16Don't laugh, if they made it like Oblivion it might be kick ass.
- ron7852, on 10/30/2008, -0/+12Every one of those games was ***** excellent... I see nothing wrong with collecting stars, but I do think they should find some type of new format or mix it up a little.
- kefkaantakrist, on 10/30/2008, -0/+12Mario is not much of a character to begin with. He has no real personality and is basically just a generic man.
To Link this is somewhat less applicable, but (all or most of) the Legend of Zelda games occur in different eras with different characters... who just so happen to have the same names and often look similar.
PS I'm not criticizing Nintendo for having bland characters - I don't think Mario games need a hero character. It's not important for the mechanics of the game. Far more important is what you can have Mario DO and how you go about making him do it. - freezerburn666, on 10/30/2008, -3/+15how bout a zelda FPS? haha...
- Billistic, on 10/30/2008, -1/+12Ok, I got answers.
Make a more adult Zelda game, more like Oblivion, make it so Zelda actually falls in love with you instead of just saying "Thanks."
Make a 3rd person Kid Icarus game where you fly around with swords (flaming and otherwise), kind of a tomb raider with wings with cool sword attacks where you can swoop down from really high and hit a guy in the gut. With the look and style of Soul Calibur.
That's all for free, if Nintendo wants more they'll have to contract me. - ptkfgs, on 10/30/2008, -1/+12Amen.
- skabyss, on 10/30/2008, -2/+13Give the whole Ocarina Of Time team a raise and fire everybody else.
- cesclaveria, on 10/30/2008, -1/+12rule 34
- Dr3w, on 10/30/2008, -1/+12Mr. Cheezle: "Very Miyamoto"
/Grandma's boy - inactive, on 10/30/2008, -1/+12Where do you get your weed from Mr. Cheezle?
From you, Dante.
Oh yeah! - protogenxl, on 10/30/2008, -14/+25"Here's an idea, Nintendo. Free of charge! Next time you want to make a Zelda game, you don't call it Zelda. Maybe instead of [Link], the main character could be someone else, like... a dog! And maybe instead of Hyrule, it could be set somewhere original, like feudal Japan! And maybe instead of collecting tools to access new dungeons and areas, you could collect magic spells that are cast, say, by painting funny shapes with a magic brush ...Hang on a second, I'm gonna write this down."
- justice7, on 10/30/2008, -7/+17Oh i know
How about a new ***** franchise or two? Would that really hurt? I've had enough of Mario and Zelda, not to mention 99% of Wii games are shovelware. - davethe1st, on 10/30/2008, -1/+11And the Zelda timeline is so messed up anyways.
- ChromeGhost, on 10/30/2008, -3/+13steampunk zelda
- protogenxl, on 10/30/2008, -0/+10It's a Quote and you just lost your all of your Geek Cred
