"We're Making Zelda Easier"

"The Legend of Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto believes the famed franchise is too difficult for gamers"

This is just fing outrageous. As if TP and the DS titles werent easy enough. Nintendo may have put hardcore on backlog, but when the strictly hardcore titles like Zelda start getting dragged down with it, it just gets personal. I dont give a damn if Zelda isnt accessible to new players, it is made for the hardcore who became hardcore the hard way. I can only hope this doesnt turn out to be as rotten as it sounds.

I don't care if they make the Zelda franchise easier or harder all I want is a FULL ADULT LINK GAME, and when I mean full... I don't mean half dog link, half bird link, metal link, or any shape form that is not link and oh gawh no more kid link please!!!! Just make a game with "LINK" and no weird shapeshifting crap!

If you want a hardcore Nintendo game, go buy Galaxy 2. They've really upped the difficulty this time around

I plan to reply Ocarina of Time again in the near future. And A Link to the Past. Those were real hardcore games.

Since when Zelda is considered hardcore? :shakehead:

That's my favorite Zelda game. I've played it so many times I know where everything is, how to beat everything, etc. (the same goes for Super Mario World)

oh gawh no more kid link please!!!!

Does that count Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures? Because I really liked those, especially with 4 people playing. It was so hilarious trying to get everybody to cooperate. Other than those 2 I don't want kid link either.

And BC2 is?

Have you ever beat A Link to the Past?


And isn't Link "kid Link" in all the top-down/pre-64 games?

Zelda is nintendo... and a single player game. That changes the game a bit.

I liked kid Link in OoT better than adult Link because kid Link got to use the boomerang. The hookshot wasn't nearly as fun.

I never said BC2 is even though it's a multi game so difficulty is random. Zelda wasn't once renowned for its difficulty, not like some old games like Contra for ex.

And I beat all the Zelda up to Majora's Mask, with all the side-quests possible. My bro did up to Twilight Princess. Awesome games but not hardcore.

Yeah, Zelda is easy.

I didnt like lInk to the past, I thought it was inferior to the series. Im being biased though
