Title: Link for GCN is horrible.
Post by: Purple Yoshi on January 19, 2002, 01:55:26 PM
  Has anyone seen what Link is going to look like in his GCN game?  He looks like Japanimation only worse!!  The Zelda games are usually my favorite adventure games but I don't think I'm going to buy this game.

What does this have to do with Mario? We're not here to discuss the Zelda series.

It doesn't have anything to do with Mario, but it must be said!  At least they did Link right in SSBM.

Yes, the Mario and Zelda games were created by the same person, and the characters have appeared in games together, but the Zelda games are quite different from the Mario games and I've never seen Mario in a Zelda game!

I've heard two throeies about the Zelda for GC:

1. It's jsut a silly joke
2. Both cartoon and 3-D wil lbe out

I don't really mind the cartoon look, but I'd prefer the 3-D one

  There was some kind of preview for the next Zelda which looked really good and then they changed it to that cartoon garbage.

 YOSHI!!!

  I agree with you, graphics aren't everything.  But the new style of Zelda graphics is going to ruin the whole game, it's so bad!!!

 YOSHI!!!

You're right, graphics don't make the game. Look at all the classic Mario games like Super Mario Bros 1, 2 and 3. They're still just as fun as ever even though graphics technology has improved since then.

It's not just cartoon looking, you see, it's got cartoon mechanics. I saw the preview for it, and a group of monsters that were chasing Link walked into the open air, and didn't notice it until the look down, the tried to run back to solid ground, but the couldn't, and fell. Now, that is why I do not want the game.

WHO CARES??!!! PLAY THE GAME!!! jeez, any body remember when you all were going "man paper mario is so dumb look at the graphics!"
(i read did'nt post that) but now your all saying what a great game it is! the point is your doing the same exact thing you did to paper mario, to zelda. sure the graphics are cartoony, and they run in mid-air and fall (i'll dmit that was kinda "different for a zelda game) the game will be fun as all H3//
 and when i buy it i'll tell you about it.

oh yeah what would you do if they had guy running in midair before falling in mario? (probably nothing...)

I am i the only one here who reads the nintendo power's player's pluse?  in one issue it says that hardly anything is realeased in the game and that the snap shots that make link look like a woman were poor shots, its probly still being worked on right now! another thing is that in ssb the graphics were pretty simular to the graphics in their n64 games right? maybe it's probly the same with ssbm! did anyone here think about that? huh?

     Video Games are usally a combonation of GamePlay Graphics and Sound. It is very important to have good graphic and good gameplay. Think of what it would be like if 007 The World is Not Enough had walls that where just solid blue, and if the floors where just solid green. And the villians where just pink shadow siluets. It would ruin the realistic look! But on the outher hand if all you did was run around and shoot eachouther that would ruin the game as well! It's a combination of both to make a good game. There both important. One may be more important than the outher in sertain types of games. But they are BOTH importaint.

 (My two favorite worlds in Super Mario Brothers 3 are PipeLand and DarkLand. PipeLand is chalenging. It''s for experinced players. DarkLand is the final world. There is two Tanks, one LavaShip, and one DoomShip to go through before you get to Bowser''s Castle. Them two worlds are the most changing.) (Please join Mario Survivor in the Story Board)

But on the other hand, notice how this one, instead of being called "The Legend of Zelda", is simply being called "Zelda". Now, this brings to mind one thing. Since all the Legend of Zelda games are variations on the same occurence, maybe "Zelda" is the actual occurence, what really happens, what all the other games were supposedly based on. Hmm?

OKAY... I want all of you who are screaming about how graphics are the only thing that makes a game good, to listen to me!

First of all, graphics are simply the way of showing how good a game plays. Just because a game has bad graphics, doesn't mean it sucks... Think back in 1985, when the original Nintendo Entertainment System came out.

Back then, graphics were extremely poor; but ironically, the original Nintendo was the pioneer of good games, it actually had games that were FUN! Key word, games have to be FUN, which is what Nintendo is all about! Sony is about graphics and crappy 3rd-party games; Microsoft is about graphics and crappy games; Nintendo is about FUN!

Even the Nintendo-64 had crappy graphics, yet it had some of the best games ever made (Paper Mario, The Ledgend of Zelda: Majora's Mask/Ocarina of Time, GoldenEye 007, Mario Kart 64, the Mario Party series, etc...)!

So you see, just because a game has low-quality graphics, doens't mean it will be a bad game... All of the other Zelda games (except for the N64 ones) had cartoony graphics, and they were extremely popular and successful!

And who knows... Maybe there will be a new cartoony Zelda game AND a new 3-D Zelda game that will BOTH be FUN!

Or one theory I've thought of is this:

The new GameCube Zelda game will have cartoony graphics only during the years of Link's young life. As soon as Link becomes an adult, the graphics will switch to the 3-D 5-bazillion polyonal graphics...

The main point of all of this is:
Just don't judge a game when it hasn't even been released yet. Many people critisized Paper Mario when it was still in the developement stage, and that game turned out to be one of the most beautiful, and most mesmerizing Mario games I've ever seen!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MICROSFT: Nintendo is so old, you should retire! You will fall to the wrath of Microsoft!

NINTENDO: Well, at least WE know how to make good games! Long live Nintendo!

SONY: I like cheese...

Quoth Mario Maniac: Sony is about graphics and crappy 3rd-party games; Microsoft is about graphics and crappy games; Nintendo is about FUN!

Correction: Sony is about graphics and crappy 3rd-party games; Microsoft is about graphics and crappy games; Nintendo is about FUN! (and mediocre 2nd party games)

I feel kinda dumb... but I like the new look. Almost any kind of cartoon is cool, and anime is the best.

Wouldn't get too repeatable if they kept realeasing the same kind of game with the same kind of grafics. People would get sick of it. Miyamoto was developing the Zelda we were used to seeing on the N64, but he felt terrible about making it so he changed it this way. Sure, a lot of gamers were outraged(like me, at first), but i've grown to accept the fate of the new Zelda.
