Re: Saving Zelda
The original Zelda is hard as fuck. So is the original Castlevania and Metroid. And Mega Man.
There is a whole generation of gamers who are never going to experience the frustration of getting your ass handed to you HARD, and never experience the accomplishment and acclaim of beating a hard game.
I'm not sure what to make of the article. I do definitely agree though. Zelda has gone through the motions for a long time now. The insight into 2D to 3D was interesting...I never thought of it that way. I guess Ocarina is really just a 3D version of ALttP.
It would be cool to have a totally open world...Grand Theft Zelda or something. It's never gonna happen though. Nintendo is the worst company in terms of changing things and coming around.
