Actually is an Action Adventure. There are some RPG elements, and you can find better on Zelda II, but the other games not to much.

Also, Okami was a game in the Zelda genre.

Hmmm... like Metal Gear, Tomb Raider, DMC?

Nah, I don't think so, personally.  Though it does straddle the fence and blur the line between Adventure and RPG - I think it qualifies as a hybrid of the two genres. 

But I don't wanna turn this thread into a discussion of Zelda's genre anymore than we already have, so let's discuss this some other time.

I remember (if I'm not wrong) that Miyamoto said he wants to put more RPG elements in Zelda.

That list clearly shows one of the main reasons why I'm not a multi console owner like I've been before. I've spent most of my money on PC games this gen and I'm glad I did it.

I dunno, Zelda seems more like Action Adventure to me.

I mean if Zelda is RPG, than I guess so are games like Assassin's Creed and Red Dead Redemption. I could argue those games have RPG elements as well.

Well, when you really get down to it, there's not much in Demon's Souls that makes it more of an RPG than Zelda, aside from its wider variety of weapons, armor, and spells.

I kinda classify them in their own genre, alongside games like Okami.  Third person action games all about going on an adventure, revolving around the exploration of a rich, detailed, and open world, action-based combat, and some light stat usage.  Shadow of the Colossus would also somewhat fit in here, though it lacks in item variety and stats compared to these others. 

I can't think of a specific term for this genre, however.  Third Person Adventure, maybe, but that implies something akin to the old PC adventure games of the 90s.  Honestly, just straight up Adventure would fit perfect, but its already been taken.  =/

Whatever you want to call this genre, it's my favorite.  And such games are markedly different from most JRPGs and WRPGs, like Lost Odyssey, Fire Emblem, Whight Knight Chronicles, Oblivion, and the Witcher.

I haven't played much of Fable, but I think it would come close to this genre as well, though it has elements putting it a bit more in the WRPG camp, I believe, as well as in the sim camp with Fable III.

Those are not gameplay elements...

The RPG genre is too vague to give a precise definition.

Taken directly from the Super Paper Mario IGN review:

"Really fun and extremely clever. You'll play it as a platformer, but there's a light RPG in place, too."

I don't know what's Odin Sphere but from what I've seen of Muramasa, it certainly isn't a RPG.

if xenoblade comes. Nintendo

If it doesn't

sony.

I'd have to say Sony for Valkyria Chronicles alone, but I really wish there were more RPGs. Looking at my games library, There were way more RPGs on major consoles in the previous generations than this one......I need to get a DS.
