MM and OoT were pretty equal, really. OoT forgot proper mechanics, and MM forgot proper pacing. Both, however, had scenery and characters that you couldn't help but remember!

As for TP, well, that's what happens when you make a game for both the current and predecessor hardware, not to mention it was EXTREMELY early in the Wii's lifecycle. Now that SMG and SSBB are under Nintendo's belt, and they felt comfortable enough to do the styling in Punch-Out!! Wii, let's see what they do with the TP style, now.

I am extremely eager to see the results.

And for the record: I hope the world of the new Zelda is interesting. Though I don't worry much about that, I have yet to play a Zelda with a boring world.

Oh and... I'm sure Ganon is the villain again.
While dual wielding Ganon is pretty badass... I think seeing Trident Ganon in 3D (for the first time even!) would be kickass as well.

Though there's still the chance that Ganon does not appear in this one.

they say it's going to be somewhat different, but i don't see Ganondorf going anywhere.

"Different" at this count could mean anything.

MAybe they renamed Link to Lonk.

I'm almost 85% certain that Ganon/dorf is in this one. After all, Link's destiny (typically with the Master Sword) is to defeat Ganon, and it has to start somewhere.

But, there may be an off-chance that it could be some even GREATER evil that rivals the Master Sword and inspired Ganondorf.

If it's going to be like the more surreal games in the series (LA, MM), it would make sense for Ganon to be absent again.

I wouldn't mind another game like LA or MM.

If the sword is the focus of the story then they might bring Vaati back.

Link's Awakening is still one of my favorite Zelda games. Over on another forum I frequent, I hear they're making LA in Minish Cap style. That would be cool. A friend of mine over there also was making LA Co-op. It was fun.

OH [parasitic bomb] IM USING LINK AND I ACCIDENTALLY FINAL SMASHED A CUCCO OH GOD HELP
Just enjoy yourself, don't complain about everything

You know what?

Link might keep his standard sword throughout the whole game in this one. The girl will probably become the master sword during the final battle, and they'll attempt to recreate a duel a la Wind Waker.

I can see that happening.  He'll probably need to collect things of Power, Wisdom, and Courage to make her turn into/back into the Master Sword.

Who knows what will happen in Master Stroke?

agreed. and also, Zelda will be the one to do the change. maybe fire light arrows at Ganondorf (Ganon? pfff, yeah right) before and after.

I just want to know how the Biggoron Sword outclassed a legendary sword. The Master Sword may be touted more for its metaphysical and durability attributes.

go back to playing Fire Emblem. Link without a sword is not Link.

I want those LttP medallions back. Screen clearing power? Why yes, please!

Also, make Link's sword shoot beams when he has full health again! We've been through enough games where he didn't have that option (save for a small cameo in Fierce Deity).

I thought that Twilight Princess was graphically really good, but I played the GameCube version. I don't own a Wii. Probably never will because I hate the motion-sensing gimmick. It probably would have been a different story if Nintendo hadn't released it unfinished and broken.

Anyway, Twilight Princess was probably the most graphically-pleasing game on the GameCube. I was surprised when I first popped in the game. Everything was so pretty. Not saying the Wind Waker didn't have its charms too, but it's a different charm. The Wind Waker's style made the game feel more whimsical and fun, while Twilight Princess's style brings life to the rather dark plot. That's just my two cents.
