What in the nutz and bolts is happening in Zelda?



 

 

We reap what we sow

Around the Network

It's an ok Direct. While I'm very happy Etrian Odyssey is still going, it's too soon to re-release the first two games again. If they launch without the 3DS story mode, they'll be lesser releases than The Millennium Girl and the Fanfir Knight. I guess this is just to check the waters, but I still wanted a new game...



You know it deserves the GOTY.

The best Direct in a while. Wow



METROID PRIME REMASTERED!!! And a new Professor Layton!!??? Loved this direct!!

Was hoping for more Zelda TotK info but what I saw impressed, 10/10 direct for me

Also that Yoshi Island course looks amazing and Birdo is a welcome and unexpected addition. Really hoping they add Diddy Kong.

Baten Kaitos HD? Also nice.

Was not expecting this announcement. I always wanted to play these games but didn’t have a GameCube 

I've been hearing rumors about this. Nice to know that they panned out. Now we've got all of Namco's great Gamecube RPGs coming.

Hopefully Nintendo and Sega are paying attention, and we see a Fire Emblem Tellius collection and Skies of Arcadia.

Besides Zelda there wasn't much for me. I am still holding out for another 3D Mario game. Which at this point my gut is telling me it will be a launch title for the Switch 2.

It would be awesome if the next wave, they add Diddy Kong and a course or two from Diddy Kong Racing. I played that more than Mario Kart 64

Nintendo Store lists The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for $69.99. Looks like Nintendo has raised the price of new games to $70. Or at least Zelda.

You called down the thunder, now reap the whirlwind

Metroid Prime Remastered looked amazing. It is already in the eshop for $40.
