New Legend of Zelda Details
 
From IGN:

When a cinematic trailer of an upcoming - and less cartoony - Zelda game was unleashed upon us at this year's E3, many of us were pleased to see a game with a visual style we had originally hoped to see with The Wind Waker. However, newer details about the upcoming game have made us both disappointed and intrigued.

As it turns out, the new game will not be in the adventure genre as its predecessors. Instead, it will be a rhythm and action game, similar to Dance Dance Revolution or the upcoming Donkey Konga.

The game will play in a series of battles ranging in difficulty and theme. As the battle goes on, new and classic tunes from the Zelda series will play, and you will need to press buttons in time with the beats and the action on screen in order to carry out actions in battle. Miss too many cues, and Link will meet an unfortunate fate, while completing a battle successfully may unlock new levels or even new characters.

As surprising as all this may be, the idea does interest us. We can only hope that the final product will deliver an entertaining experience. We'll have more details on the game as they're available.

eggyolk May 26th, 2004 07:33 PM

FAKE >:

James May 26th, 2004 07:40 PM

Gah, sorry, I meant Gamespot.

I'll see if I can find the link again, but the site seems to be down right now. :/

Rongi May 26th, 2004 08:02 PM

Nintendo can expect to lose a lot of fucking money on this. Fans of Legend Of Zelda do not want to get off their lazy ass and dance around

Cap'n Crunch May 26th, 2004 08:22 PM

Moms will buy it for their fat kids and they'll get in trouble for using their hands. :lol

James May 26th, 2004 08:28 PM

I don't think it's one you dance to. It's just a rhythm game that you use the controller on. But I may be wrong, since the details are few. :/

mew barios May 26th, 2004 08:42 PM

hrm. i didnt hear anythin about rhythmbased attaks. jus saw this trailer.

eggyolk May 26th, 2004 08:47 PM

That has to be fake. I went to Gamespot and they've only got E3 stuff. Where the hell did you find this?

thebiggameover May 26th, 2004 11:42 PM

So Do Homosexuals

Zomboid May 27th, 2004 01:10 AM

Ok, that seriously better be a fucking joke. What kind of fucking idiots think that's a good idea?

DamnthatDavid May 27th, 2004 02:51 AM

James, stop messing with the heads of the kids. You can tramatize them you know.

Now people, James is pulling your leg. And if their was any truth in it, the news would of spread across the face of the internet almost as fast as the first Olsen Twin Playboy spread.

The E3 Footage shows us that it is a modified version of the OoT/MM/Windwaker game engine, hit up with a turbo.

To directly alter the gameplay to a musical beat game would require to much effort for Nintendo to place into a game.
And any game they would make would be in direct competition with the Donkey Kong DDR style game they are making.

thebiggameover May 27th, 2004 06:08 AM

THERE IS A OLSEN TWIN PLAYBOY SPREAD????

DamnthatDavid May 27th, 2004 01:09 PM

Future Tense. :/
I forgot to add the word "would"

McClain May 27th, 2004 10:34 PM

Based on the trailer that Mew posted, all I have to say is FUCKIN' A BABY! I'll buy a Gamecube just to play that shit.

everyone else thinks so.

ziggytrix May 31st, 2004 07:20 PM

more like pa rappa than ddr if it were true...

ArrowX May 31st, 2004 07:21 PM

Cookie?

bigtimecow Jun 1st, 2004 05:10 PM

the trailer by mew looked fucking intense. at first i thought it was a remake of ocarina of time but there seemed to be a lot more enemies / locations etc. james has to be a fag because there is no possible way that a game with that trailer could require "simon says" type "action."

and two questions:
1. donkey konga? are they gonna fuck up donkey kong too?
2. i have pondered this for awhile: "Legend of Zelda." what the fuck did zelda do? it seems like anything she could be known for was getting captured by ganondorf numerous times and having link save her.

ANSWERS PLZ

bigtimecow Jun 1st, 2004 05:40 PM

i found i guess some beef on james' statement (http://www.gamespot.com/gamecube/act...x.html?q=zelda under Gamespot complete Exclusives ; roundtable discussion).
towards the end of the video he mentions how the gameplay / control style has been roughly the same for the past zelda games, and how they were gonna focus on more puzzle solving or something. so maybe james ISNT a liar.

oh, i think you need to be signed up to watch it.

Donkey Konga is a rhythm game. It comes with bongos you hook up to the GC, and hit along to the beats on the screen (or clap). On top of which, the next Donkey Kong platformer game will apparently require you to use the bongos as well.

thebiggameover Jun 1st, 2004 05:42 PM

donkey konga is a game like ddr but with bongo drumms

i thought zelda has been in all the games?

Emu Jun 1st, 2004 05:43 PM

Shitty like a fox :eek Remember how well Hey You, Pikachu did?

bigtimecow Jun 1st, 2004 05:47 PM

Krythor Jun 1st, 2004 06:34 PM

Nope, she was in the Wind Waker.

I've been meaning to play oracle of seasons and time actually, but I never get around to seeking the roms out. Are they any good?

James Jun 1st, 2004 06:41 PM

They're pretty good. A good mix of Link's Awakening and Link to the Past. The password system is also pretty interesting. I should go back and play them again, because I never did finish them.

ArrowX Jun 1st, 2004 07:00 PM

Does anyone remember the original Ocarina of Time commercial with the blacksmith?

Actually, we saw Zelda in MM, but only as one of Link's memories early in the game, if that counts...
