Looks like a traditional top down Zelda game. We haven't had one of those for like ten years, so I'm pretty excited.

Provided they can get back to the traditional philosophy of level design. Top down or not, if it ends up being another "Room A -> Room B -> Room C -> Room D -> Boss" Zelda game then who gives a fuck.

Nah, I hated the controls as well. I wasn't against it conceptually, but I couldn't consistently pull off the roll and that just bothered me. I put down Phantom Hourglass very early because of it.

Going by the quality and talent behind, let see, Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, and Skyward Sword I'd say that's a pretty freaking high bar to set.

Unless this is being outsourced to Capcom or someone of 2004-era Capcom talent, in which case, cool beans!

horse shit story with lots of trailing about describes pretty much every decent zelda game.

Anyways since trading my 3DS to demi all these sweet 3DS announcements have rolled right off of me, but this one stuck. I didn't want to accept it at first, but now I'm starting to feel the salt. Enough that I want to go buy a regular 3DS when I get off work today. Damn you, Nintendo.

Are there any deals going on right now? That Target deal came and went :'(

I sold my 3DS to quietID on the cheap for some quick scratch. :(

you're too poor to make foolish bets about things you've got roughly no experience with, magoose.

well i was just saying i expect them to abuse 3D effect,that mallet thing that makes you jump a plan ahead seems to have been created for a similiar reason too

Also Zelda 1 sucks, almost as much as Metroid 1 sucks.

Why does it suck?
Title: Re: LINK TO THE PAST 2 (Zeruda 3DS - Holiday 2013)
Post by: radioheadrule83 on April 19, 2013, 08:13:36 AM: It's aged horribly, but then, a lot of NES games have... LOZ is a lot more re-playable than the first Metroid is.
I think a lot of people probably stop on LOZ before they even get their first extra heart - its really good (for its' time) once you get over the initial hurdles

Music is stuck in my head to this day.

LTTP is my favourite game of all time, easily. I think they're going to have a job on their hands making a worthy sequel, but I am encouraged by their balls in doing so. Being of the generation where its predecessor was the hot shit, its like they're making it just for us! :-*

Imagining it being good, yet still unappreciated by all the ingrates who started with OOT in '98 makes my eyes all twitchy.
Title: Re: LINK TO THE PAST 2 (Zeruda 3DS - Holiday 2013)
Post by: Damian79 on April 19, 2013, 08:33:23 AM: I dunno. Zelda 1 was designed with other people in mind out side the game. I think the zeld aformula has gotten too stale for it s own good. Zelda 1 is a good template to go back to imo.

Post by: AdmiralViscen on April 19, 2013, 08:46:31 AM: Zelda 1 holds up just fine with a couple of tips from a friend or guide (if you haven't played it). Better than Metroid for sure, and I'd say better than Zelda 2 also.
Title: Re: LINK TO THE PAST 2 (Zeruda 3DS - Holiday 2013)
Post by: brob on April 19, 2013, 08:48:34 AM: I agree with mr. Grumpy McGrumpypants. Zelda 1 is a fun game, just suffers a little due to it's age. But in these days of Dark Souls being praised for it's obfuscation I don't really see any issues with it. Still vastly prefer it to Ocarina and it's ilk.

Zelda to me was always about the adventure and sense of wonderment, I think established formulas really ruin it so it's difficult to enjoy more recent zelda games for me because all that's left to enjoy is the combat and the puzzles. I don't like Zelda combat and the puzzles, while well made, don't strike me as all that interesting or fun. I liked Wind Waker because it felt like it broke from the established Zelda series with it's incessant sailing and cutesy art. It still had the same combat and puzzles, but at least I got to sail around the various islands and talk to Tingle and the fancy french fish.

if you decide to play zelda 1 go read where you can find the red ring,the two power up swords and the entrance to dungeon 8 (or whatever the hidden dungeon number is) otherwise you deal crappy damage,die in 2 hits against certain enemies and you'll probably say "fuck this shit" before ending the game

I don't know how miiverse works for virtual console, but if you could get vague hints from the community to guide you, yeah, it would play fine for a modern audience. I don't know how many are willing to sit down and play Zelda 1 bare in 2013.

Metroid is different because I don't think it's really worth playing unless you're determined to see the series' roots. Zelda 1 is its own experience.

Then don't use words like 'challenging' and 'frustrating', re-re. What were you talking about?

I thought the light/dark world mechanic was done worse in the game than just about any of the subsequent games, and at times was pretty annoying. Obviously I haven't played the game in ages, but at the time it made me roll my eyes.

Whereas to me the seasons/time parallels in the Capcom games were better thought out, the dungeons were more challenging, etc.
