When the wii was coming out they showed a bunch of trailers of all this amazingly accurate game play with 1 to 1 swings and stuff for red steel, however, red steel didnt work at all, it was like purchasing a broken product.

So, you made your conclusive conslusion by watching some videos of some commenter commenting on the game that they didn't play?

Do you even own a Wii?

Everyone on IGN jumped right on the "we hope the gameplay can be more accessible to people" line. Which I feel is unjustified.

Their rage is beautiful music and their tears sweet nectar

Because Nintendo developed and published Red Steel. e.e


I know seriously, now Nintendo gets blamed for a game it had really no input on, lol The Nintendo haters are always good for a laugh

Motion Plus isn't really all that great. I found Wii Sports Resort to be really inaccurate and frustrating to play. But it's definitely a step up from the normal wii mote.

Perhaps you were somehow doing it wrong....

I don't know about him, but I found WSR amazing, I think the showdown mode should be made into a full fledged game

Great, an action-adventure like Zelda could be the perfect place to refine motion-controlled sword combat: I think it's not as easy to make it work well as many think and I trust the devs.

On the other hand, I don't think accessibility is that much of a need for the Zelda public, unless they are going for a different target this time around.

I think Nintendo is always looking to expand their audience

"We're making efforts regarding the total flow of the Zelda game. So far, the basic flow of the Zelda games is you're exploring a field, you go to a dungeon, you conquer it and return to the field. We're looking at altering that traditional flow. That's all I can share, and I can't say more until E3 next year."

THANK YOU!

Getting rid of the sidequests? Why? I've always loved doing sidequests in Zelda!
