Nintendo Gaming / RE:New zelda...

« on: August 10, 2003, 06:31:38 PM »

Personally, I'd love to see a new Zelda game that is similar to the SNES one in gameplay. A top-down perspective, with the camera not fixed on Link. I think that they could modify the WW engine to fix the camera angle like that. I would also expect tons of dungeons, temples, and secret areas. As far as the storyline, I'm not sure that Link would be fighting Ganondorf anymore, but having him just fight other evils in the land and performing quests in a huge, vast overworld. Also, what would be cool for that game would be having Hyrule, a Great Sea, Koholint island (from GB), and the place where link goes to in MM (never played it) all be in the same world to allow for a big diversity. Link would have to travel by horse and by boat. Oh, and do not forget the cool sidescrolling areas from the original Zelda and Zelda GB. Basically it's back to old-school Zelda with that difficulty but with WW graphics. Sort of like Yoshi's Island for N64.

Nintendo Gaming / Why is GCN considered to be a failure?

« on: August 09, 2003, 05:34:03 PM »

I've been lurking these forums for a long time and I've read over and over where people (not just the posters, but retail places too) are claiming that the GameCube was a failure. Sure, the sales are not as impressive as PS2 numbers, but how exactly is it that people are claiming the GCN to be such a mistake? In my opinion, the Gamecube has been a flawless transition for Nintendo into optical storage for their games.

BTW: Also, how was the N64 a failure? A system with games like Ocarina and Mario64 is NOT a failure.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Nintendo Nexus: Next-gen name?

I think that the Nintendo Nexus is a great sounding name. One meaning of Nexus is 'the center of attention or focus' which is what Nintendo is in my eyes in the gaming industry.

Other names I like are
Nintendo Mojo (you can guess why)
Nintendo Next
Nintendo Nextgen (haha)
Nintendo Nightmare
Nintendo Nitro
Nintendo Noble (for Nintendo's philosophy of having moral games)
Nintendo Nocturnal (because we will all become nocturnal playing games when it comes out)
Nintendo Nanocube (it will be smaller than the GCN is right?)

I don't really like this name I though of but think of what it means:
Nintendo Nickelodeon
A nickelodeon was an early form of a jukebox. Nintendo could change that term into a meaning of 'entertainment box'.
