[Megathread] Zelda Wii U 2014

[dragothica]

I'd buy a WiiU for this, and a TV too. I'll probably wait until it's released at first though. I just hope it finally has HD or otherwise more realistic graphics style than previous games. Nothing wrong with their style but I just want to see a Zelda game with HD graphics.

[Geminiwolf]

I'll wait for the PS3 port.

(((Yes, I am being somewhat serious. I wish they would just take the plunge already... :P)))

Zelda on PS3??? Lol no, that will never happen. If that were to ever happen, Zelda will be officially dead. Why would Nintendo give one of their most successful game franchises over to Sony, their rival? That would be like Halo going over to PS3. Zelda has been a Nintendo only title for about 30 years and will continue to be a Nintendo only title and I'm glad that it's a Nintendo only title because Sony and Microsoft would totally ruin the game. Plus Zelda wouldn't even mean as much anymore if it's available to other systems. Mario and Link are like the faces of Nintendo. You give Zelda over to PS3, you're killing a HUGE mascot. And there isn't a whole lot of mascots these days anymore, which is really sad.

So basically you will be waiting for nothing to happen.

Why would they do that?

Dark Souls and Demon's Souls did that whole 'help people across worlds' thing. (Or troll people).

He said port, not hand over Zelda to Sony, read, but yeah it'll never happen because yadiyada, etc. etc.

[Duruka]

Thats good news i guess. Maybe the one who made the demo is tone deaf. One can only hope

The music is from the 25th anniversary symphony. It's not their best song, but I think it sounds good.

Maybe because nintendo really needs to realise that they dont actually have a viable foothold in the Console market, and do what sega did: GTFO and focus on makeing games instead of second rate hardware.

The game can stay firmly in Nintendo's hands, they just need to get out of the hardware market. I mean, there is absolutely nothing about the WII that could not have been created as an attachment peripherial for the X-Box or PS3.

Hell, every single person I know who owns a WII (and i can name at least 10 off the top of my head from friends / family and friends of friends) have the thing sitting on a shelf collecting dust between the odd session of Mario party or releases of Major Nintendo Titles.

Seriously Nintendo, Just get the hell out of the console market, stick to the practical monopoly you have on Handheld hardware, and focus on making games.

Yea, none of their consoles or handhelds ever sell, and certainly nowhere even close to better than ps or xbox. Games can't even be fun without top of the line hardware. You and your 10 pals are the heroes modern gaming needs.

[Migey]

Meh. This is probably the only game I'd ever buy a Wii U for and there is no way I'm making that kind of investment...

Hope it's good though!

Can't possibly be worse then Wind Waker though.

Oh, ahem, Surfd? I agree that sometimes Nintendo can get a little gimicky and stuff... but... well, you know the Wii sold about 27 million copies then both the PS3 and the XBox 360? And that the Nintendo DS has sold 10 million more worldwide then the PS3 and XBox 360 COMBINED?

Yeah... Nintendo are not by any means failing or unpopular. Not that I disagree; I'd LOVE for Nintendo to continue making games, but for the PS3, so I could play them without having to buy a new console, but they have no financial incentive to do so.

[Freedom4u2]

Guess I'll have to buy a Wii U... Heard about this game a few weeks ago and already completely hyped. I can only hope it'll be as good as I wish it'll be xD

Yeah, Nintendo was an absolute failure in the Wii and Wii U console market.

Right, because you know, it's not like Nintendo isn't outselling Sony and Microsoft in both the console and portable market..../sarcasm

Here is some advice, stop posting bullshit unless you know what you are talking about. Nintendo isn't going anywhere and the sellout of both the DS, Wii, 3DS and Wii U at their launches were more then enough to suggest they aren't going anywhere. But hey, haters are gonna hate and trolls are gonna troll, even though like every other sheep/lemming who plays a PS3 or 360, you can't accept when another company has trounced the competition through innovation.

I'm sure glad you know what you're talking about.

Nintendo consoles are the only worth while consoles, PS3 and Xbox are shittier versions of computers for people who can't afford PC's to play higher end games.

That's handing it over to Sony since Zelda has always been Nintendo only. (except one time.. that never actually happened, nope.)

Let's not speak of the dark times...
