Graphics may not be similar to that of new age Zelda, but 3D Dot Game Heroes I felt did a fine job emulating old school Zelda style gameplay. Of course it was lacking some things, but I would find that to be a good starting point.

I would love a New Legend of Zelda to be based off a graphics style like that.

 

Have you seen or tried it yet?

 

 

By the way, I need to read this entire article. I feel like I will agree with much of it.

I haven't played it, but of course I know of its existence and that it was an homage to the classic Zelda games. This type of game, just like Super Mario Bros., didn't stop selling because consumers had no interest anymore. It stopped selling, because it wasn't made anymore. And if anyone suggests that Nintendo shouldn't try, because a game of another company that had flaws didn't sell a million copies, they need to be smacked. Although I disagree with you on the artstyle, a New Legend of Zelda should have a look that resembles the old games, 3D dots would make it look like some crazy experiment. It's okay for 3D Dot Game Heroes, because it was a new IP.

Of course, if a proper New Legend of Zelda gets made and sells well (which it should), the naysayers are going to say that it did so because of nostalgia. But isn't that why a game like Skyward Sword sells? Because people hope to get another Ocarina of Time.


see i just cant get behind thinking like this and whta mr khan said before

i grew up on the nes and snes and bought every console that came out since

I loved the original and i loved skyward sword

why is it that there is now such a hate between 2d and 3d fans (with 2d fans feeling like second class citizens or something)

and as you say the wii mario's prove there is quite a following that dont buy the 3d games and i ask why? why is there such a devide between 2d and 3d that some fans few them as different series

I am not against a new 2d zelda by any stretch of the imagination but i am also not against a new 3d game same with mario, they are the same series to me
