Yeah I think they just forgot about Zelda 2

well Zelda 2 did release 20 years ago in Japan, and 19 years ago for the rest, so it's a fair statement :p

Yup, I think they comparing on 1st place basically with all 3D Zelda games (OoT was 98" game).

No. It released 30 years ago in Japan.



Official member of VGC's Nintendo family, approved by the one and only RolStoppable. I feel honored.

This is a good thing, the big Zelda games have been going in the right direction regarding difficulty level ever since it's low point at Wind Waker. Skyward Sword is more difficult than Twilight Princess is more difficult than Wind Waker. Breath of the Wild certainly doesn't need to be as difficult and cryptic as Zelda 1 and 2, but if the average returns to ALttP/OoT/MM levels and they take away from the difficulty curve of the first game (simply put, areas supposed to be visited later occupied by very strong enemies) then I'm all for it.



Sounds a little bit exaggerated imo but let's wait and see.



If that means you will have to aim a lot with shitty analog sticks count me out.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Aiming is done with motion controls.



Anybody know when exactly Zelda previews will start to appear? I'm assuming sometime this afternoon, UK time.

I think it's just over 2 hours away... That's if it has the same embargo time as the Switch did yesterday
