Rumours exploded overnight that Nintendo were working on a world-beating super-duper MMO based off a simple ESRB listing for ‘Zelda Universe’.

Not only has this listing been there for years, it’s also (and quite clearly) related to the official Zelda Universe website, that is rated by the ESRB, and has been for ages.

Stand down, chaps, E3 isn’t going to be that good…

you guys are thinking too small, this is Nintendo we're talking about...

Mario Galaxy was Mario in space, so this will be Zelda. IN SPACE.

think about, it makes perfect sense - we've had Link ride a horse, drive a boat, a train and (maybe*) fly in SS.

Now... THE FINAL FRONTIER

 

*either that or it will be one very short game after that cliff scene



Until you've played it, every game is a system seller!

Zelda MMORPG doesn't even make much sense gameplay-wise. They'd basically just be using the setting and some characters from Zelda, but other than that it would have to be completely different.

Isn't that how WoW was? I don't think the RTS Warcraft games have much to do with the MMO other than characters and setting (sort of)...

Anyways, I don't want a Zelda MMO, Pokemon MMO FTW!!

Of course. I didn't mean that in the sense that it couldn't be done, but more in the sense that it would only be Zelda in the same sense that Mario Kart is Mario.

Pokemon makes much more sense. I have no idea what they're waiting for.

Nintendo has registered Zelda Universe as an "online game," according to VentureBeat. Every Nintendo game before then has been registered for specific platforms like Wii or 3DS (pictured above), so this leads us to believe that the company is working on one of three things. You call it "wild speculation," we call it fun.

1. A hub for all things Zelda across handheld and mobile consoles

This is probably the most logical. Basically, Nintendo could be creating a RewardVille of sorts for all things Zelda. It would have a website hub (as it kind of already does), but extensions on the upcoming Project Cafe, 3DS and maybe original DS to track your Zelda-related activities and reward you for them.

2. An online massively multiplayer Zelda game, akin to WoW or EverQuest

On Nintendo consoles, of course. This might be a bit of a stretch, but Nintendo has mentioned their desire to do online gaming right. Perhaps the company wants to step into this generation on the right foot. Coming out strong with an MMO surrounding a timeless franchise would certainly be a way to make that happen. Too bad there's only one Link to go around.

3. A Legend of Zelda Facebook game

Come on, did you really think we wouldn't go there? Nintendo has expressed their fears acknowledgment of Zynga's effect on the gaming industry. Could the stubborn mule of the gaming industry (they're just trying to get online right ... think about it) have finally cracked? It's entirely possible, but you better believe that if this is happening, it's going to be from within the Nintendo systems. Hey, there's always Facebook Connect.

sorry, but these ideas are not good. i don't approve just my opinion though.
