Forums - Nintendo - Martinet spoke to Miyamoto about Link getting a voice (hes not getting one)

http://www.nintendoeverything.com/?p=27834

 

“I spoke to Mr. Miyamoto and said: ‘I wanna be Link, I wanna be Link,’ and Miyamoto told me that Link isn’t going to have a voice; he is going to stay the way he is. Of course Mr. Miyamoto is always right! The way it works right now is the way it is supposed to be. It’s the genius of Miyamoto and he knows just the right formula for making his games more fun and more exciting. For example in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, If things slowed down for Mario to express his inner feelings it just wouldn’t work and this way it keeps our hearts pounding with enthusiasm.” – Charles Martinet, voice of Mario

To be expected.

Their will be voices in the next zelda, just not one for link. That way the player can imprint his own voice upon link.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

He better not get one. The other characters though....



i just hope other characters get voices and talk



Thank god....

Proves even more why Miyamoto is a genius.

And I can just see all the guys at IGN getting ready to downscore Zelda now because of this.



Six upcoming games you should look into:

I'm not looking forward to voices in Zelda....

Anyway I hope they can maintain a good atmosphere even with voice acting if it has that. I haven't liked any of the voice acting in games ever.

It was a relief when Galaxy ditched the voice talk, that atmosphere could never have been maintained with cartoon acting the likes we saw in Sunshine, or any other type.



mmm...but Link has a voice,he screams when he attacks or gets hurt...he just won't have a voice in order to speak.



I hope nobody else has voices either. As in, actually talks with a voice. The gasps and stuff are fine, for me. I don't want voice acting in Zelda at all.



I wouldn't mind having characters speak....ESPECIALLY Ganon. I don't think we get a sense for how truly evil he really is without a voice. But Link? No voice...ever.



Link should never get a voice, but I'm indiffrent with other's talking...



Former something....
