Capcom is much different now. They can't even be trusted with their own franchises, let alone Nintendo's.

Capcom of 10 - 15 years ago maybe.

A good chunk of the "Capcom Zelda Team" works at Nintendo now anyway, I believe the director of one of the Capcom Zelda games directed Skyward Sword.

Well I edited to any "good" developer. There are lots of devs out there with imagination. I bet there are a ton of indie developers that could whip you up a great 2d Zelda any day of the week. They might even bring clever new ideas into it. I'm pretty sure even Miyamoto would agree with that statement.

I would love if we had more cross developing in this industry to see franchises and their interpretation by different devs.

We have. Its called the Sonic franchise...

I would love for Nintendo to give them a shot at least! If not on the Wii U then do another handheld because Minish Cap and the Oracle games are some of the best the series has to offer.

And still haven't had a Sonic by Naughty Dog or Platinum.

Wow this was news to me, thanks for sharing. I had no idea that they went to Nintendo later on. A bit of a shame though since I thought that Capcom did make a few good Zelda games back then.

On Topic: I also think that a lot of developers could make decent, good or even great Zelda games, especially if they co-operate closely with Nintendo and don't make the series too different. Basically if they stick to making it a Zelda and put a lot of effort into it.

The guys who made Sonic Boom are former Naughty Dog employees, so yes we have...

I guess we know now why they're former employees.

Well if you want to educate me on the bad Naughty Dog games, then be my guest...
