Gamecube had Wind Waker and 4 Swords.


Wind Waker is avalaible on Wii U and 4 Swords Adventures is avalaible on NDS.


Um by that logic, then no Nintendo platform has it's own Zelda game, except 3DS with ALBW and the DS Zeldas.? That's terrible logic...

Terrible logic but it is not a wrong logic...

You can still get banned for logic that is correct. Happened to me recently.

Then PS1 has no Final Fantasy gaemz because PSOne classics, and god knows if the PS3 will have any games in a few years. Sounds fine.

No Final Fantasy game on PS1 is exclusive you are right. ^^

The best one was, but now it isn't



So it sounds like it's kind of a mixed bag here. Some people would be unhappy, others wouldn't mind. The way I see it, and I know I'm generalizing here, but it seems like the only people who have bought Wii Us are hardcore Nintendo fans that will buy their next system regardless. I may be wrong, but I think most Wii U owners are going to buy the NX regardless of whether Zelda comes out for Wii U or not. That's why I'm saying I'd rather have it be a better game on NX since I know I'll be buying no matter what.

Oh and also, I've seem people saying they want it for Wii U because they want to play it next year. I was operating under the assumption that NX will launch in 2016. I realize that's a different discussion, but that was part of my premise.



What if the NX is a hand held tablet type thing?



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

I almost don't believe my eyes.... 

It would be increadibly stupid if Nintendo released this for NX. Why?

1: It's development is increadibly far along by now. Why do people want them to cheap out and put it on the NX? Every gen should get it's own LoZ title built from the ground up on the hardware to showcase the consoles power. It has always been this way, except the Gamecube era.

2: Why do we want to wait a year or two after the release of the NX to get a game we could have had 2+years prior? This is around the time it takes to make a LoZ game. We could have two (with one being a complete surprise) new titles in around the same time that they could give us one "cross gen" title (even if we are talking about Zelda U not getting released at all, it would still be a game built mostly for this gens tech). 

3: The arguement it "would be better on next gen tech" is a phrase that is perpetual. Why release it next gen, when it will be better the gen after that?

4: We would be caught in a loop of releasin cross gen titles. Say we release this year one or two, three years later Nintendo faces the same problem. Do they release the next one as a cross gen? Nintendo does not need to make LoZ their cross gen series, it needs to remain their flagship. You are essentually asking Nintendo to ditch making the best LoZ on their hardware as they can, to accommodate building a game that will work on two different platforms.

No, this game needs to be released on Wii U, squeezing every once of power out of it before we go into next gen.

Counterargument: this is Nintendo. The same Nintendo that decided to do from Animal Crossing a board game and from Prime a multiplayer chibi shooter.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


I actually don't really care either way. I will likely get the game, unless something unforeseen happens and I'm unable to, so it being dependant on either console at that point becomes moot to me.
Since it is releasing next year, if the NX is as well I could easily see it being released on both consoles. If people are that caught up in having the 'best version' then that is their problem. It will likely be very similar versions anyway, that has been shown in the past from Nintendo. At this point, I actually see the next home console being released in 2017, not 2016 to fall in line with how Nintendo has always done it. We have always heard whispers and what not about their new consoles a couple years before fruition. But again, if it does, it doesn't bother me none. I have over 40 games for the Wii U and have put ridiculous amounts of time into it, the console owes me nothing.
