A Link to the Past is good, man. Some consider it the best Zelda game ever. You should get involved a little more with it IMO. But good luck playing A Link Between Worlds. Each Zelda game is unique.

Everytime I watch a trailer or gameplay I just think meh whatever. I dont get it, it has great reviews, Im a huge Zelda fan and yet the game looks boring to me. Maybe its because I have no nostalgia for ALTTP but its not like Ive never played the top down Zeldas before, in fact Links Awakening is one of my faves. Maybe if I played it it would be fun and enjoyable but right now I just feel like so many games coming out or released recently have impressed me so much more =(


So Nostalgia is a requirement to enjoy Nintendo games? Is that what this is about? Maybe that's what's wrong with me.

Because the same thing over and over gets boring.

Nintendo need retire some of their franchises for 10-15 years. Do something new, then when those get tired bring back the retired ones.

Man, you must have really grown tired of gaming as a whole this generation! I mean, CoD, Assassin's, Uncharted, almost every fighting game, Resident Evil, Halo and a bunch more franchises just seem to spew out the same things. Right?

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Except those have a big focus on story as well as multiplayer, plus varied environments between games.  Story in Zelda games is always weak, the enviroments similar and no multiplayer.

Yeah, you're right. Because the story on Ocarina of Time is the same as A Link To The Past, which is VERY similar to Wind Waker and/or Skyward Sword. How could I not see that!? And I have to agree that Skyward Sword are very much the same enviroment as the original 8-bit Zelda; if it wasn't for the graphics it could have been the same game! And now that you mention it Wind Waker's world actually reminds me of Majoras Mask! *Gasp!* Nintendo recycling the same enviroment and story in every Zelda game!!

Does multiplayer automatically make a game better? Well, you said so, so it MUST be true! Which means that the last years GOTY (The Walking Dead) must suck ass. As must EVERY game in previous generations. Final Fantasy VII sucks. Super Mario Bros 3 and World - sucks. Ocarina of Time sucks. GTA3 sucks. Stripping The Last of Us of multiplayer makes the game suck. So much suckage!!!

Looks at OPs profile, sees OPs age. I can see why. Most people reviewing the game would be people that played A link to the past on SNES when they were kids or your age so this is their style of game.

he speaks like a true hardcore gamer ;)

I'm glad Nintendo focuses on gameplay first and story as a secondary thing and that's mainly the reason their games score so high compared to other heavily focused story games as not many have a good story to make up for lack of gameplay

imagine a Mario game heavily focused on story with gameplay as a secondary thing.

I realy hope Zelda WiiU has as little story as possible!
