Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Announced | Nintendo Direct

Missed opportunity with Zelda Sheikah and Zelda pirate spinoff series. But I'll take it. Echo mechanics looks like it will push my creative muscle a bit.
I'd love that. I don't want Link replaced as the main series protagonist (blank slate though he be), but playing through the same stories years later from a different perspective with radically different gameplay could be amazing, like the gaming equivalent of Ender's Shadow to Ender's Game. They'd also make nice cross-marketing opportunities for inevitable HD remakes of Ocarina, Majora, and Wind Waker; and, development-wise, they're different enough concepts that studios other than Grezzo could work on them.

If this one is a hit, we might just get more spinoffs. There is yet hope.

It looks very interesting as usual as they are rightly focusing on gameplay first. But they shamelessly copied Dragon Quest Builder. Looks like a mix between Zelda 3, Link's awakening and Dragon Quest builder.

Nothing wrong with that

Dragon Quest Builders copied off of Minecraft

Palworld copied off of Pokémon

Etc etc etc

I'm sure Nintendo spin on this type of gameplay will be fantastic

I hate most 3D Zelda games while 2D Zelda is a completely different story

I wish they would make more Zelda in this style

Looks neat, though I have so many damn Mario games to purchase now.

I need to get on a sale tracker or something because they're almost always full price!

How many Nintendo DEI hires did it take to force them to make Zelda the protagonist?
WTF am I reading here!? You might as well call NieR Automata "wok" because in Nier Gestalt/Replicant you play male and in Automata you play as female.

Not everything is "wok" and "DIE" or whatever the fuck new term is...I like this place but lets not go fucking psycho like resetera but just in opposite side.

If she was some kind of girlboss or had implausible fighting ability despite her gender/stature, I'd agree.

But they made her a magic user with charm powers. She's practically a canon female character for trad high fantasy, lol.

Nintendo actually did diversity correctly, in this case, instead of a lame gender-swap female lead.

yeah I've only watched the trailers but I detect no hate in the game's design, just creativity and imagination
