General Nintendo Discussion V5 - The Future of Nintendo - Games

If Zora show up that's just going to fuck everything up.

[QUOTE=KnightRider25;51459280]I'm throwing my money on the [Hero Was Defeated] Timeline. Your forgetting that on the Adult Timeline that [sp]Ganondorf is pretty much dead and has the Master Sword stuck in his head at the bottom of the ocean in the old Hyrule[/sp][/QUOTE] Ganondorf survived being executed and banished to another Realm, I am sure he can survive a sword in his head. The Koroks from Wind Waker appear, there are references to Salt Water in the game such as... [t]http://i.imgur.com/qxEqTpD.png[/t] Plus the master sword is rusted. I am pretty sure stuff don't rust unless it has access to water, and Salt Water can cause Rust. It also has the Temple of Time from Ocarina of Time, the Defeated timeline doesn't. Wind Waker is set after Ocarina of Time, the events of ocarina of time are acknowledged too. [editline]2nd December 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=KnightRider25;51459316]True, but hey, it's been 100 Years since Link woke up again, anything could have happened to affect some races to evolve differently.[/QUOTE] The kokiri evolved into the Koroks to survive the flood from Wind Waker. I don't know why they would evolve into Koroks if there was no threat. [editline]2nd December 2016[/editline] OH, Don't forget that Ganondorf survived a blow to the head before. Well it was more so Ganon, but either way Ganon is his true form. In Ocarina of Time, Link stabs Ganon in the head.

Oh the new little snippet had interesting things in it. Stamina upgrade Bomb Rune upgrade. Some sick looking armor and weapons. and birdman called Kass.

The sword in the head was just defeating him in a fight, so that the sages could finish him and seal him. Wind Waker had him straight up turn to stone. Twilight Princess showed him dying after he lost his godly powers. Is there some other context of "executed and banished to another realm" you're talking about?

Dang it i still want to see that heavy armor set that was seen in an old trailer

The execution proved unsuccessful and banished him to the Twilight Zone.

And I think I saw flippers when Link was swimming. The way he was swimming looked like it but I'd have to see it again. edit: nope nvm. must have been the dash swim.

Don't forget that Ganon isn't the only Villain. Demise cursed Hyrule to be attacked by Evil every hundred years or something like that. Ganon, Vaati, Malladus, Bellum and any other Villain who I forgot, are Demise reincarnated. [editline]2nd December 2016[/editline] Also, how is Link stabbing him in the head while he is Ganon, weakening him, but when Link stabs him in the head as Ganondorf, that's killing him? That doesn't make sense cause Ganondorf isn't his true form.

Oh right, and let's say that he is dead. It still can't take place during the Defeated timeline, because Ganon is actually dead in that timeline too. He was killed by Link during Zelda 1, and was failed to resurrect during Adventure of Link.

This was a good trailer. Teases more interesting shit without totally spoiling stuff Edit: oh shit that four minute gameplay video was rad as hell

I wonder if you'll have lots of small scattered settlements or a few central large ones. Makes me wonder what the ratio of distinctive characters to filler characters there'll be in them.

that birdperson is so much better than the races or whatever introduced in skyward sword actually looks like a race of people rather than shitty mascot buddies

Good to see the world's looking more lively than before, and moreso than the average Zelda game to boot.

[QUOTE=KnightRider25;51459697]Love how the Giant Enemies just avoids the bomb completely.[/QUOTE] The AI in this game is very varied. The Bokoblins will be attracted by it because of how dumb they are. I'm glad enemies will act differently and have some personality.

[QUOTE=KnightRider25;51459697] I'm going to put my bets that this game is going to take place in The Gold Era before Zelda 1.[/QUOTE] I really doubt it because Link isn't wearing the brown sleeves. In fact, if you noticed the beta pics of wind waker, Link also had brown sleeves meaning Wind Waker was originally take place after Link's Awakening but at one point decided to make another timeline split, so they changed the sleeves to light green to keep the timeline consistency.

I still have this weird feeling that BotW is a soft reboot of the series. As in, it will start its own timeline. But we'll see. We know next to nothing.

So it's not just me but the bird dude totally looks lifted from animal crossing to other people right? He looks like a Eagle villager's body type and it's wigging me out.

I thought he was supposed to be a Rito.

One thing's for sure: it looks really really fun. I'm glad they showed some villages and stuff in that new trailer. My hype is back up

The execution proved unsuccessful and banished him to the Twilight Zone.[/QUOTE] Because he had the power of the gods granted to him. He had the Triforce of Power. At the end of TP, though, he loses what kept him alive, and died. [editline]2nd December 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;51459676]Depends on the iteration.[/QUOTE] Iteration of Ganon? It's pretty much accepted, irrc, that every Ganondorf you see is just "Ganondorf." [I]The[/I] Ganondorf, all the same person/creature. He's revived a few times, or comes out of being sealed a few times, but doesn't die, and then become reincarnated. Unless you meant "Ganondorf in which game," then nvm

[QUOTE=KnightRider25;51460174][video=youtube;KwJniwKVJys]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwJniwKVJys[/video] Oh boy here we go...[/QUOTE] They are being called out for their bullshit in the comments big time.

I'm going out on a limb here and say it's definitely Zelda. There's just something about it that gave me Zelda vibes, especially the glove on the second one.

[QUOTE=Xonax;51459555]Don't forget that Ganon isn't the only Villain. Demise cursed Hyrule to be attacked by Evil every hundred years or something like that. Ganon, Vaati, Malladus, Bellum and any other Villain who I forgot, are Demise reincarnated.[/QUOTE] Yeeaah, highly doubt it. Malladus and Bellum are their own, unique entities, I'm pretty sure, along with Vaati. Plus, Bellum doesn't attack Hyrule, he attacks the Waters of the Ocean King, a world separate from Hyrule (debatably a Terminia scenario), and Malladus attacked New Hyrule. That's being a bit pickier, though, since obviously Demise's curse can just target wherever the Hyurle royal family is settled, and it doesn't have to be a certain section of the world "Hyrule." Still, Malladus has his own background and build up. Just because other villains attack Hyrule doesn't mean it's Demise's curse at work. They have their own motives, while Demise's curse can at least grant Ganondorf the power of the gods he needs. [quote=Xonax;51459555]Also, how is Link stabbing him in the head while he is Ganon, weakening him, but when Link stabs him in the head as Ganondorf, that's killing him? That doesn't make sense cause Ganondorf isn't his true form.[/QUOTE] Nintendo not actually giving a fuck about continuity aside, I chalk it up to Ganondorf's power in OoT versus Wind Waker. He was a lot more powerful in OoT than in Wind Waker, where he's already gone through that battle, has been banished, broke out, fought, drowned, and then stayed in hiding for ages. Calling the demon form his "true form" is also iffy, since his backstory has him born as a regular Gerudo in the Gerudo desert, and its the power of the Triforce that grants him his powers, which you can shove his transformation under. Like how he flashes his Triforce in OoT to transform. [editline]2nd December 2016[/editline] I obviously take Zelda lore [I]way[/I] too seriously :v:

It's either 4 things: 1. It's during the [Hero Was Defeated] Timeline, maybe during The Gold Era. 2. It's after Wind Waker due to the appearance of the Koroks. 3. There's some arcitecture that looks similar to the ones on Twilight Princess, so a sequel to that. 4. It's just another Zelda game, who gives a shit.
