The official Zelda thread

I love Zelda!!! I ve played

The Orcrina of time

The Majores Mask

The wind Waker

The Minish Cap

I can't wait to play the twilight Princess! I think the enemy i dont like is the Gibdos because they pertrfie you and bite you. But I can kill them easily actually. I also dont like the Darknuts, they kill you with a click of a finger!

I played the original Zelda first. Actually, I played it back when it was new.

It seems like every guy on the internet five or more years older than me who considers themselves to be an old school gamer had a NES while growing up. Or something like that.

I'm quite young and still had a NES while growing up. A bootles NES that ran stuff like Mario with Sonic sprites.

That's no surprise since (in America at least) the NES practically owned the gaming market until the advent of the Sega Genesis.

But yea, I'm in that camp.

They've post-poned the release of TP for like ever!!!!!

[numbuheightbitstar]

Of course they did. It's called "hype."

"Hey guys, we're making a new Zelda! It's gonna be the best ever! And it comes out at [insert date]."
"AWESOME!"

"Oh, hey, the release date has been pushed back, but that's because we're making it EVEN BETTER!"
"Ahhhh!"

"Sorry, we had to push back the release again, to add MORE COOL FEATURES!"
"All right!"

The above process repeats, but eventually the fan response becomes more agitated and impatient. At this point the company finally releases the game and garners record sales. This tactic helped propel Mario 64 and Final Fantasy VII both to the status they now hold, and has become a standard practice (especially for big-name releases) ever since.

Oh yes. I remember Banjo-Tooie was originally going to be released in 1999, but it ended up being released in America on the 20th of November 2000. I was ten, it felt like ages.

So when is Twilight Princess comeing out now?

[dragonman]

feels like never. I dun think they've set a date yet
