You guys want an insanely unfairly hard Zelda game? Try Four Swords Anniversary Edition's Hero's Trial

Holy shit whoever designed this is evil. They throw huge waves of really hard to kill enemies at you: archer moblins, ice wizrobes, ball and chain knights, the hardest to kill darknuts ever. They even have infinitely respawning flying tiles getting thrown at you.
 
Was hoping the game would look like Ocarina Of time 3D....:(

This just looks kind of cheap, they are probably putting all resources on the WiiU version. So it's all good. :)

We will probably get a remake of Majora's Mask. I hope, at least. How were sales for OOT 3D?

I'd love to try it out but Nintendo thought it was a good idea to remove the game all together and not even allowing me to pay money for it.
 
Incredible. I think I will rebuy a 3DS for this, so many other games I have missed since I traded it in. The art is gorgeous, exactly in line with New Super Mario Bros art style.
 
Honestly the art style looks exactly the same as ALttP except with polygons, I don't know how you people can complain about this.

This obviously a cheap way to make Zelda, they could have done an Ocarina Of Time 3D style world, but they took the cheap way out.

Still excited thou, but I was hoping for a proper 3D world on the 3DS.
 
Furthermore, Nintendo has confirmed that the upcoming game is being developed by series producer Eiji Aonuma and his team at Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development (EAD).

old?

We've known for a while that Aonuma's team was making a new Zelda that was like a remake of ALttP in 3D, but more confirmation is nice.
 
This image is lame. What's so appealing about it that people keep bringing up? The only good part is the rain/fog affect.

Uhh the best part of that image is the character design for Link, which is the same look from WW. It's so much better than the design in these new screens, I dislike these new graphics to be honest. There was some backlash over the WWHD color scheme/lighting, but these new 3ds images are a much bigger concern for me since it seems the art style has changed from lttp to this game.

Yeah that would be great, I guess my expectations were too high, I was hoping for a original game similar to MM/OOT. :)

But you know Nintendo is good at surprising people, I remember the negativity about WW, but when it came out people loved it.
 
Presumably it's not controlled like Phantom Hourglass because the image is in widescreen and all the PH/ST gameplay was on the bottom screen.

I could've told you this from the moment Iwata revealed that the bottom screen wouldn't have the 3D effect. Almost no 3DS games that I can think of has had any gameplay occurring on the bottom screen. 3DS Zelda was always gonna be top screen-controlled with buttons.

It doesn't look cheap. It looks like the dungeon designs could get really complex, especially with the chalk Link mechanic.

It's a LttP sequel. Maybe they will do a 3D game when it's related to Ocarina.
 
I'm pretty excited about this, but I do wonder if it'll make it seem like a lot of Zelda.

Wind Waker HD and this
Then I don't see why they wouldn't do Majora's Mask since the 'engine' has already been ported over. Seems like an easy one.

They also have a new Zelda in the works for Wii U though it seems to be at an early stage. And surely they'd make a 3DS original Zelda too, right?
 
I was hoping for the Majora's mask, but at least it's a new Zelda.

To be perfectly honest, the new look seems rather "cheap" to my eyes for some reason.

I was hoping for an OOT style game too, but I'm still pretty happy about this. The top-down view lends itself well to multiplayer, and I really hope they include a four-sword esque mode.

Yeah I'm excited to see what they come up with, I just meant it's cheaper to make a top down Zelda than a full 3D OOT style world, I would prefer the latter.

Probably because it is cheap.

This thing can't have been in development long. It's the definition of a "OK we need a big title for next year" game.
 
I remember hearing some people asking for this type of style for a Zelda game. looks good. Man, Nintendo is trying to make the 3DS a legendary handheld with all these 1st party games.
 
They've been talking about this game's development since OoT3D was released, it's definitely been stewing for a while.

Wasn't it in the "hmm should we make Majora's Mask or should we remake Link to the Past" kinda way? Doesn't really indicate to me they were actually working on it.
 
Holy crap, I just saw this news for the first time. This is my favorite gaming news in years, and it is now my most anticipated game of any sort. I've wanted this for years, so please come through for me. The original LTTP may be my favorite video game of all time.

Nah it was more along the lines of "Before we even make a statement about remaking Majora we want to put out an original title"
 
I am 31, owned a launch snes, loved the 3D Zelda games and have never played ALTTP. I may have to get it on virtual console and give ita try.

This is the first top-down (hopefully) traditionally controlled Zelda in ages. The 3d games have been more prominent. Quit yer bitchin. :P
 
So why do you even care about this game anymore?

I'm just catching up on the thread since I last read it.

To me this is the day the music died. The music is Nintendo.
oh, you're totally right... that totally proves that the game is garbage.

No, it proves I'm being sincere in my distaste. The main reason I was holding on to this system was the prospect of a Majora's Mask remake or, and shame on me for thinking this, a console powerful enough to run a 3D Zelda getting a 3D Zelda.

Playing Fire Emblem demo and it feels just wrong being unable to use the stylus and the touch screen to move the charecters trhough the grid.

Fucking 3D screen.
