Hmm, never saw what the appeal of the Zelda games was. I played Twilight Princess for a couple of hours before getting bored.

Oh wow. Nintendo, not deviating from the standard pattern they've been using for a long time. That's a shock.

That said, I'll probably end up playing this.

I wish they would do a spiritual sequel to Zelda 2, maybe for the DSi. It was pretty interesting in its own way and outside of the difficulty level reaching 'Go F*** Yourself' status at the last dungeon, it was a pretty solid game.

In other news: Pope still Catholic; bears do shit in the woods.

Oh well. I suppose they aren't particularly likely to change a formula that's worked incredibly well up to this point. Every Zelda game thus far has been liked by critics and gamers alike, and have earned unholy amounts of money. As long as it's still as good as the previous ones this shouldn't be too much of an issue.

You know, as long as it isn't exactly the same as any of the others.

No they don't. They shit in small plastic bags and throw them at cars while people are driving near their forest.

Honestly? I think that EVERY Zelda is basically... So similar, you played one, you played them all.

A Zelda game not radically changing its ways?! Oh lord stop the presses!

But anyway, i like the current formula so i'll probably give the next one a look anyway

No surprise there. At least he's honest.

Things such as games in the Halo series weren't all too different (I don't wanna start a war about how good Halo is).

It's a formula that's made good games in the past and will still be fun and quirky now. If only I didn't sell my Wii last year since there seemed to be a good-game-drought. Mario Galaxy 2 and now this. Ahh well.

"Tropes are not bad."

Just because there's a repeated theme(s) doesn't make it bad. The formula is good enough for me.

This just in! The new Zelda game will be just like all the others, with Majora's Mask still treated as the mutant younger brother none of the rest like!

In other breaking news, air is a necessity to breathe, houses have walls and John McClane doesn't play by the rules!

Well I'll still play it and enjoy it I'm sure. OoT still holds a special place in my gaming memory so every played after that featuring Link will have a certain bias.

Meet the new Boss Zelda same as the old Boss Zelda

My God!! Nintendo isn't making radical changes! What's next? JRPG's getting released exclusively on the 360? PS3's costing a dollar? Chocolate monsters fighting toffee-covered zombies? McDonalds going vegan? Where will the madness stop!?!

P.S. It'll be nice to have a reason to play the Wii again.

Even more evidence to suggest that Wii Zelda won't be horribly dumbed down to appeal to the massive Wii audience. Nintendo just keeps rolling out the good news. :)

Pretty much this. Is anyone even surprised by this? Why did it need an announcement in the first place? Zelda has changed little since the NES days.

As long as I don't need to travel up and down the countryside looking for tiny bugs (Twilight Princess, I'm looking at you), I will be happy.

Zelda hasn't been good since 64. I played Wind Waker and it was neat but I wouldn't touch it again. I played the Wii Wolf one and flailed my arms like a Goomba for 10 minutes before sitting down and just flicking my wrist.

Zelda hasn't aged for me. It's the same game when I was 10 years old only with spicy graphics and a "Demo" mode that beats bosses for me if I get lazy/tired or just want to get some dinner.
