hey what do you think about zelda's new look?

[Iluvatar]

well we have all by now heard that Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto has had some thoughts about changing the graphic type of the game. instead of the crisp 3d look Miyamoto has decided to give zelda the now seemingly popular cell shaded graphics. Many dispute that this is just a cover up that nintendo is doing to keep things under the hood for as long as possible but Miyamoto has always been one to change for the sake of being original. what do you think?

i think Zelda is a girls name and i dont like adventure puzzle games like zelda 64

BUT i think that guy, who i know nothing of also has a girls name, or possibly alien name... What do you think of DAT?

=p

[Grav]

I think Cheese <=> Cake.

[Iluvatar]

yeah zelda is a girls name

[Iluvatar]

i think grav <=> insane

[Iluvatar]

[Grav]

First of all, Zelda is the name of the PRINCESS. THe main character's name is Link.

no shit thankyou for once again explaining the obvious but don't worry about penguin and grav they just messing around for fun. hey what do you think about zelda's new looks?

[Iluvatar]

someone post something

[Hades-Knight]

some screenshots would help say something??????????? duh!

[Raziel]

Wait, Iluvatar you just insulted Gamecube after practically begging him for gold. Make up your mind, be a kissass or a dickhole. You can't be both.

[Raziel]

And the reason nobody is posting is because this thread already existed a few months ago and was deleted recently.

[RoboticSilence]

And for some reason is back... now someone delete it again.

though link himself looks great in cel shades based on what they showed @ E3, Nintendo has to really work on getting his enviornment, particularly objects that interact with him.

As for the idea as a whole, i think in the next year cel shading will be overused a whole lot, but i think this is a nice take on it from nintendo.

[GameCube]

he looks like something from an anime cartoon

[FuRy]

From the screenshots I've seen, it looks like the game is gonna be awesome...

[NonGayMan]

I think the game will be good, but no zelda game will ever compare to Ocarina of Time

[GameCube]

i really dont like the fact that it is cel-shaded. it makes the game look really kiddie. nintendo wants to show that the gamecube is not a kiddie system, but cel-shading this game isnt going to help.

[Raziel]

I will wait and see for myself how the game turns out. I'm not gonna dismiss it entirely because it looks a little cartoony.

[GameCube]

well, yea. i would try it out first too. im not saying that the gameplay is bad or anything. i just dont like the graphix. im sure its a great game.

[Jamesadin]

is says that links sister gets kidnapped...he doesnt have a sister. Remember in ocarina, it explains that he has no family

[Raziel]

Yeah, but the Legend of Zelda games don't all flow in one storyline. The Link and Zelda characters from A Link to the Past aren't the same people from Ocarina of Time. They screw around with the story continuity to prevent plot roadblocks.

[GameCube]

that doesnt really explain it...

[Jamesadin]

meh, ill probably get it anyways

[Raziel]

What do you mean it doesn't explain it? It explains it perfectly. I'm willing to guarantee that the Link character in "Cel-Da" is not the same character from Ocarina of Time. That means they can give him a sister, even if he never had one before, because it's not the same character.

[Iluvatar]

well when myamoto made the first zelda game he thought of making it so that it souldn't have one story line but could always change.

[FuRy]

GameCube, get over that you don't like Cel-shaded graphics...The latest screenshots from it look great....Plus if you saw it in action, you would definitely change your mind..

[GameCube]

yea, probably. the game looks cool. mr. myomoto called the game "an interactive cartoon"

[FuRy]

Yea, he said he wanted to give gamers a cartoon they control...I'm glad the game doesn't have huge black outlines like in most cel-shaded games...

[BlueCube]

I remember the saga of Paper Mario. I thought, "Why couldn't this be like the other Mario RPG? This is gonna suck.."

I loved it.

Hope the same thing happens to this Zelda.. being non-sucky, that is.

good point.. paper mario was good and i also thought the same.. why couldnt it be like mario rpg
maybe we should open our eyes to this new link

[Raziel]

I've actually been meaning to buy Paper Mario for a while, but I haven't really heard anything about it. Is it really that good?

if you liked super mario RPG's stripped down final fantasy type feel, you'll like paper mario for the same reason.

wait... that's redundant.

[Raziel]

Mario RPG was fucking great. I guess I'll pick Paper Mario up pretty soon then.

[GameCube]

yea, mario RPG is my fav SNES game, and paper mario is a great game, definately in the top 5 for N64

[!King_Amazon!]

no zelda will ever compare to the old zeldas(before 64)

[Raziel]

I thought Ocarina Of Time was the best one. A Link To The Past comes in at an EXTREMELY close 2nd though.

[NonGayMan]

Ocarina of Time was my favorite too, I hope this new one will be good.

[GameCube]

i liked link to the past very much. they are making that game into a GBA game

[Hades-Knight]

i lost 60 bucks for buying majoras mask colectors edition :/ i beat the damn game in 2 days , what a waste , too short

[GameCube]

i beat link to the past in 108 days, great game

[Alpha_omega]

i think that im gonna buy the game

[GameCube]

u will have to wait a while;its not coming out until 2003

[Raziel]

I can't wait. I was REALLY skeptical about it until I saw some newer video footage at Gamespot, and I was blown away. Hyrule (if that's where the game is set) looks a hundred times bigger than it did in Ocarina Of Time. It's just gonna rock, end of story.

[GameCube]

yea, the game's gonna be awesome

[FuRy]

I can't wait for the new Zelda game, the csg rock and iits gonna be waaaaayyyy better than Metroid...Just wait and see....

[Raziel]

I don't know about it being better than Metroid. Samus is looking pretty fucking badass these days. But, nonetheless, I am practically pissing myself with anticipation for both games!

[FuRy]

Well if you take the factor of how long Metroid Prime has been in development, almost a year and a half..maybe two years, and compare it to when Zelda was announced...a few months ago, no wonder Metroid Prime has better graphics as of now...Zelda is slated for a February 2003 release...but remeber how many times Metroid was delayed....Zelda will prolly come out a few months after February....

[Raziel]

Actually, Zelda was announced almost a year ago. The first "Cel-Da" videos and screenshots were released around either last August or September.

yea, metroid looks sweet

[FuRy]

Man, the first screenies of Zelda for GCN looked crappy at first, but now they're lookin pretty good...The shadows and particle FX on it looked great from the video I saw..I've heard the world you play in "Cel-da" is not Hyrule, so...might be some cool new places..
