Title: Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: Gamefreak on November 28, 2006, 04:00:05 PM
I might have posted this earlier this year, but with the recent release of Twilight Princess, I think it's time to bring out this video.

Speaking of which, I was planning on having a Zelda party at my house sometime in 2007, celebrating 20 years of Zelda. (Because the first Zelda came out in 1987 in America, 1986 in Japan) The sad thing is, it might not happen.  :'(

That is hilarious. Man, twenty years of Zelda... here's to twenty more!

I hope that they keep making Zelda games for another twenty years (hopefully more)

I think they will make more...a lot more. Zelda is too valuable to end now.

Personally, I saw the words final, release, and Twilight Princess in the same sentence and thought that it would be the last Zelda game ever. Yeah, it was a big misunderstanding, but, man! You don't know how badly I lost it when I read that... :P

My goodness, 20 years ago I was 5 years old begging my bro to let me play Zelda, and then when he wasn't around I was able to sneak into his room and play the game. Of course the next time he turned it on he noticed his character had died about 20 more times since the last time he played...I thought he was going to kill me, but eventually I got better and have never looked back.

Let see....20 years ago I was not here.

LMAO.

But my first zelda game was Link's Awakening; got it for GBPocket.

Loved it since.

What saddens me is that Shigeru Miyamoto is getting older, too. :/ I'd sell my soul so that that guy might never age another year.
Another 20 years and he'll be, what, approaching 80?

Crono got third? Crono got beaten by Mario? What the heck?

Approaching 80? I don't think he's that old...is he?
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: collaboration on January 26, 2007, 07:48:25 AM
Born 1952. So he's 55 now, about. He'll definitely be getting up there.

OH NO, it'll be terrible when he dies! What'll happen to Nintendo?? :'(

hopefully they will find somebody just as creative with a lobe for video games close(not the same, that would be impossible)to Miyamoto's.
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: bgrugby on January 26, 2007, 10:46:12 PM
Well I am sure he has many underlings that have been with him for a while that have learned from him. So I would not worry too much.

You may, but hopefully Zelda is still popular then.
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: MagmarFire on January 28, 2007, 01:20:48 PM
It most likely will be. After all, human minds are amazing! There are endless possibilities for future Zelda stories. :)

Still, if Shigeru Miyamoto died, I would most definitely lose my head. He's a genius! :-[

We could always freeze him and kep his body just incase we can resurrect him!

He would then continue to age while he's awake.  When he dies, he dies.  That is the way of life, and it would be foolish to try to stop death.
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: DW on January 28, 2007, 11:20:14 PM
we could freeze him in carbonite and keep him alive until we find a cure for aging! Like Walt Disney!

...That's deep, man.
Anyhow, I do agree, honestly. As much as I wish he'd just stay with us forever and ever, supplying us with all the wonders the digital world has to offer, he has a life, too. I adore and respect the man enough to not interfere with the respite he and everybody deserves at the end of the road.

I dunno, though. He's kind of giddy and kooky. If anybody came up with a way of presenting and producing Zelda games after death, it'd be him.

what about Koji Kondo, seeing as how he is the lookalike of Tingle, he probably has some crazy stuff up his sleeve...

Don't worry, Nintendo has enough geniuses to keep the Zelda franchise going for another 20 years. :)

That was awesome. I hope Zelda goes on forever. As for Miamoto, I will be his human sacrafice! We can put his brain into my body! I would be honored! Yeeeesssss!!! Forget Death!  :P

Ummm, I think they would choose a younger body.

I wonder, is Walt Disney really frozen?
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: Takun on March 18, 2007, 01:44:24 PM
What you mean "younger body"?! Im only 13!
And yes he is frozen, don't you watch Family Guy?
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: DW on March 18, 2007, 01:57:44 PM
he isn't frozen. He's in suspended animation.

I may be late for this... But yeah, that is pretty amazing, 20 years of Zelda. 20 years ago, I was negative.
I remember when I was 8, begging my brothers to play thier SNES so I could play LttP. Ahh... I feel so old. I'm going to raise my kids to worship Farore so that the generation of Zelda lover stays alive!

We should start a WHOLE religion based on the Zelda games.
Pastor:And Link pulled the sword from it's stone prison, and reseived its might.
People:And he yelled, Hiiiyaaa!
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: DW on March 18, 2007, 04:22:41 PM
I can just imagine, a church of holy rollers yelling "Hey! Look! Listen! The Goddesses are good!"
Title: Re:Celebrating 20 years of Zelda
Post by: Takun on March 18, 2007, 04:27:57 PM
Or it would turn out how it did in Futurama where all of the Star Trek fans made a religion out of it and where pushed into a vocano. I would still follow Zelda to the end  ;D

You're spamming alot, you know.

Twenty Years. I've only lived 13 of them. I wonder how many games the series will end with.

Destruction of world. That will happen, at most billions of years from now.
