Do you guys think that the legend of zelda would come to an end any time soon? I don't think it will, but I don't know.
no way! NEVER
Well, thats what I thought about mortal kombat, but then bam, nintendo stopped making it.
But how much farther could they go with MK though? Plus MK wasn't nearly as big as Zelda. Per game, Zelda is Ninty's top seller.
They might end it with PH, but that would be the stupidist choice they could ever make. Although, in my 1st playthrough of Twilight, I was thinking, if this was the Zelda finle, this would be the best possible way. But supposedly, another zelda is already being made. Yay!
They are already making Zelda Wii.

Nintendo doesn't make MK. Thats why (try as I might) I could never find an MK game for GC and had to get it for Xbox.
Anyway I'm sure eventully they will stop making Zelda games. But not for at least 3.7 billion years. It would be nice to have Ganon finally die though.
1. MK isn't developed or published or distributed by Nintendo.
2. The MK franchise did NOT end. I don't know what the next game will be like, considering they did announce some serious changes. They announced that the next MK will be completely different qua gameplay and characters. On the other hand, they also stated that a MK without Scorpion is not a MK.
My guesses is that the new gameplay will work, but that people will demand for the old characters. Especially because I can't say any of the D and A new characters were of the same quality as the characters created before those two games.
It depends. From what I've heard, they have a set timeline, and recently they've been trying to uncover the timeline a bit more with the games. Maybe when they finish said timeline, it'll end.
I have to agree, though, I want Ganondorf to be dead. xD He's persistant.
No, I'm pretty sure MK is done. Armaggedon was their finale, with every character ever.
Zelda will be done when Death Mountain freezes over.
Or if link gets canceled. lol
Nah, zelda would never end. As you've all probably heard many times over, if Nintendo decided to stop creating one of its key franchises, well, that'd be pretty foolish, wouldn't it?

Exactly.
*thwaps JDog with a rolled-up newspaper* NO THINKING SUCH HORRIBLE THINGS!
As long as Zelda games keep selling then they will keep making Zelda games it is simple economics. Nintendo is still making Mario games, they are still making Donkey Kong games, they are still making Metroid games, and I wish they still made Kid Icarus games. But the point is Zelda games sell and as long as they sell, Nintendo will keep making them. If they start to fail then there will be no more Zelda but I do not see that happening anytime soon.
Since you mentioned Kid Icarus, that's a game I'd like to see revived...
anyways, as long as Miyamoto is alive they will keep coming, hopefully even after his death.

Well with Pit being in SSBB and Kid Icarus on the VC, I think that might be a sign of the return of Kid Icarus. I really hope so cause the NES game and Gameboy sequal were both great games. And lets not forget Pit was a major character in the Captain N cartoon of the late 80s early 90s.
And with Zelda you do not even have to worry about Miyamoto's longevity as he has even said he has been grooming some people to take over once he retires so Zelda will be around as long as it sells.
good old Miyamoto, taking care of the future...truly a great man...
The only new Donkey Kong games that have appeared recently are the ones featuring SOLELY Donkey Kong. The Donkey Kong Country franchise is dead thanks to Rare.
Well really who cares about Donkey Kong anyways? But lets remember who created Donkey Kong...Miyamoto. The point is he has groomed many to do his bidding, Nintendo will do fine once he retires or dies, and if not...well luckily I will be too old to care about it.
Donkey Kong Country was a great game...I wish that would come out on VC....actually they did release Diddy Kong racing on the DS, that was a good game on the 64, but I have no idea how it handles on a handheld system..
Ummmm what Wii do you own? Donkey Kong Country is out on the VC...has been for a while.
oh. well my cousin has it so I don't check VC much, just when a Zelda game comes out to see how much it is. Still haven't gotten any though, he has no points...

Donkey Kong 64 was the best one. Although anything could beat (the retarded) Donkey Konga. Even DK Country was better than that.
Anyway. I think we should take Miyamoto's brain and place it in an android body so he can be immortal.
Actully the only truly dead Nintendo game is Earthbound. They only made one game (and that was for the SNES). Yet Ness apears in every SS game. Hey wait a minuet.
Earthbound died becuase it obviously didnt muster as much support as the other games. Zelda musters more support from the crowd than Mario. It will never die.

Well actually there were three Earthbound games. They were called Mother in Japan and Mother 2 was Earthbound in the US. Mother 1 was on the NES and Mother 3 on the GBA. But there is always a chance it could be resurected. Obviously there is a huge cult following for the game and once it is released on the VC and it does really well there could be more. Look at Kid Icarus, it reappeared on the VC and Pit will be in SSBB, I have a feeling we will see new Kid Icarus games in the future.
Talking about US here. I don't know what goes on in Japan obviously. All I know is the the lucky Japaneas kids get games a month before us :(.
hmm I think we got TP first though, kinda weird yeah?
In my opinion Zelda will end when all of these things happen
1.Hell freazes over
2.Jimmy Hoffa's body is found
3.Sony stops making retared products that cost twice as much as Nintendo and Microsofts stuff but only have room for 2 players and have horrible grafix.
4.People stop liking Vaati
5.Cows take over the Earth and have a vast intergalactic empire with Ozzy Osborn as thier king.
Fortunantly none of these things (especially #3) will ever happen.
Irrational Nintendo fanboyism ftw!
I'm not one of those people who think Nintendo systems are the only way.
You would proubly describe me as a Microsoft fanboy. In fact if they made franchieses such as Zelda, Mario, Starfox ect for Xbox, I proubly wouldn't even own a Nintedo sytems.
I just don't like Sony products.
Get an Xbox 360 and a PS3 and plug them into a TV side by side. Compare the grafix. Also note the 4 controler ports on the 360 vs the 2 on the PS3. Note the $600 price tag on the PS3 box. In my opinion the only advantage for the PS3 is the sixaxis controler. Sony makes great games (like Jak and Daxter) but they need to work on thier systems.
I admit though that the Wiis grafix are worse than the PS3
Nintendo stuff never has very good grafix.
nintendo didn't go for graphics, they went for innovation. If you seriously let graphics determine your game choice, you are missing out on a lot of great games.
Yes, and Nintendo stuff has great "graphix," I would choose aLttP sprites over Gears of Wars realism any day. Because I care about the artistic beauty not the realism.
Thats why I play Nintendo games. I'm just saying that I perfer the Wii and 360 to PS3. TP actully had awsome graphix and I still think OOT looks real even 9 years after its release.
By the way thanks for showing me how to spell graphix right.
Don't judge early Wii games as what the graphic capabilities are for the Wii. The Wii hasn't even used half of its potential yet.
As for Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft, I used to have a PSOne, PS2, and PSP and I was throughly disappointed with all three. The only reason I went over to Sony was because they took the Final Fantasy series from Nintendo but besides that and Madden/MLB and the Jak series that is really all I had to enjoy with Sony. Microsoft and Sony seem to concentrate on games that are all the same..."OMG ALIENZ OR ZOMBIES R HERE...SHOOT EM....KILL EM".
People call Nintendo the kiddie series which I find funny since I see more 20 and 30 year olds getting the Wii then the PS3 or 360. Its all about quality gaming...not how fancy your pixals are.
yes, but you gotta remember looks are everything nowadays.

Well I am sorry but anyone who actually believes that does not know one thing about gaming. And truth be told, in the first two months of 2007 Nintendo has dominated both console wars so far as the Wii and DS have been the top two highest sellers in the months of Jan. and Feb., hopefully this is a sign of things to change.

Well, Miyamoto is 55, so there's a chance he might continue the Legend of Zelda series for maybe another ten or fifteen years. I heard he has two kids, but it said that they don't seem interested in taking over the family business.
Really? That sucks, his kids won't tak over. And for series that might die, like Baten Kaitos, buy it now. Buy it now. Buy it now. Awsome story, character development, character, monsters, weapons. Oh, and everyone has wings.
I think that the next Zelda game should find a way to bring either Vaati or Midna back. They both have HUGE fanbases so it would help sell more games.

I know, I don't go for looks either. But it seems to be true nowadays, people judge everything on how it looks.
Which is sad. If you judge, say, Windwaker by how it looks, you'd say it looks retarded and childish, but it's really not that bad of an adventure.
I remember when I saw tWW, I was like "....what?" I'm still not too fond of the style, but it was a greaaat game. And incredibly well-built. I couldn't find any game-stopping glitches and only minor cosmetic ones. >>;
it was definitely their most humorous one too...
Humorous? Have you ever seen Wand of Gamelon or the othe BS-Zelda games (even though they werent made by Nintendo)?
There is a difference between pathetic and humorous, Master HouseKey...
:P yes, when something is pathetic, 99% of the time it winds up being humorous. :D

Vaati, perhaps. But if they were to bring back Midna it would destroy the emotional ending of TP.

That's already happening. Nintendo recently announced a game featuring both Mario and Sonic...

The PS3 has much better graphics than the 360. But that may also be its downfall. History shows that the console with the best graphics have the habit of losing the generation. The Mega Drive, the N64 and the X-box are examples of that.

You know what? They are gonna anounce a trailer, and then its gonna be Sonic in SSBB instead.

Unless your talking about SSBB I doubt that will happen. Although I read about a sonic game for Wii in Gameinformer, I doubt Nintendo or Sega will allow these titles to combine.
yes he is talking about Brawl, it's not a big deal. There are stranger games that could be combined like Zelda and Metroid, but Melee didn't ruin them. Seriously.
maby one day i dunno it just depends if the people can get more and more ideas or i dunno it might keep going on

Actually he was talking about "Mario & Sonic: At the Olympics." I thought for sure for April fools they were gonna show a trailer of it, but then it is actually gonna be a trailer of SSBB, with Sonic. But the day is almost over...
Where was this announced, I must see!
http://www.zfgc.com/index.php?topic=15284.0 (http://www.zfgc.com/index.php?topic=15284.0)
okay that is definitely a joke, just look at the URL...it can't be true...
That was a topic on a forum.http://kotaku.com/gaming/nintendo/sega-pigs-have-flown-hell-has-frozen-over-247743.php (http://kotaku.com/gaming/nintendo/sega-pigs-have-flown-hell-has-frozen-over-247743.php)
yeah I know I went to that, look at the URL of that page.
Sega won't combine with Nintendo because Sega is a serate company that wants to remain independant. Even if they were gonna cobine, it would probly be with (the ripoff company) Sony because Sony has published most of the Sega games.
Nintendo won't combine because they would ruin the reputation of the Mario games if the had Sonic together with him (they haven't made a sonic game with good reviews since before 2000).
This is a joke file for these reasons and just look at the URL.
By the way, about the SS sieries. That was one of the greatest publicity stunts I've ever seen. It exposed people to Nintendos other games and was still a great sieries in itself. It got my friend intrested in Zelda, another of my friends into Dokey Kong, and me into Metroid, F Zero, and Star Fox.
Wait, didn't Sonic Adventure 2 Battle get good reviews? It hought it was awesome, and the same with Sonic Heroes.

That would be like having Donkey Kong fight along side Master Chief in Halo 3.
QuoteAnd yes, there will be a 100m sprint that pits Mario against Sonic.
Sonic could easily outrun Mario. But Mario could own anyone in the long jump. Except Samus.. but, it didn't say anything about Samus anyway.
I don't even care if this game comes out or not ;D

They are putting him in SSBB. It would be diffrent if they put him in something like metroid. The whole point of SSB is to mix games together.
So I'm saying that Nintendo is putting Sonic in SSBB. You obviously didn't read very carefully. I think that game isn't for real, that they are really going to just put Sonic in SSBB, but I have yet to hear anything.
If you ment SSBB than why didn't you say so. This whole time I thought you ment they were putting Sonicin a mainstream Mario game (eg. Mario 64). SSBB makes sence for sonic to be in.
Well I thought Sonic and Mario at the olympics was fake and it was going to turn out to be a thing for SSBB, but I haven't heard anything...
I really hate saying this... I mean REALLY hate this, but I think eventually, the legends will have to end. Nothing lasts forever, and I think it's only a matter of time (hopefully a LONG time)before Miyamoto runs out of stories to tell for these games. :'( :'( :'( This is just my prediction though, don't think any of it.
Well, it's survived in the nearly TWO YEARS since this topic was last posted in -_-
Yes, Shika has a point. Before you post in topics that have not been posted in for a long time (more than 120 days, I believe) there should be something at the top letting you know about it. If this is the case, think real hard-- will your post bring something insanely important to light?
If the answer to that question is "no", you might be better off just making a new topic for it.
