Because it was the Zelda 3 formula which has stood the test of time ever since.

But OoT took some bits of Zelda 2, so it was not completely forgotton... At least by Nintendo.

Maybe they don't know NES is Western talk for "Famicom" ;//

 

[Kard8p3]

Zelda 2 says hi. Why does everyone ignore this game? This game is also different and changed up the Zelda formula.

I said NES games. Seeing as there's only 2 Zelda games for the NES I'd say I covered Zelda 2.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Gibdos were pretty tough, as were a couple spots and enemies in LttP. Just went through the Ice Palace, that was pretty tough if you're not prepared.

 

[SilverLunar]

I'd argue that with the exception of the NES games none of the regular enemies in a Zelda game have been challenging. I don't really play zelda for enemy difficulty anyway.

That whole game is pretty hard for me. It's good, but I just don't care for top-down games as much.

Also, on the topic of SS's difficulty. I won't mind if it's not extremely difficult. Challenge is much more preferred than 'rip your hair out hard' in my book. Some people are into those kind of games, but I would rather not have to die a hundred times to move on.

 

[Xun]

:/

It'll never get harder than TP ever again, will it? Another game where you can go through an entire dungeon without getting damaged once...

I've played the game, and believe me it's "harder".

It requires more thought.

 

[LegendofJoe]

I have a feeling the music in this game is going to blow us all away, even more so than Galaxy's did. I can't wait to have this game in my hands.

Hopefully, they at the very least give it the Galaxy treatment and release a soundtrack for it. :B

Not sure if serious

lol.

Someone missed Zelda news from three weeks ago. The soundtrack comes with the game!

 

[AceBandage]

?

It comes with a sound track.

 

[Electivirus]

Guys, I meant a full OST, not the concert CD. :B

 

[MYE]

?

They ARE releasing a soundtrack CD with SS music

Maybe i missunderstood him?

edit:

I thought Miyamoto confirmed SS music in it. But yeah, a SS dedicated OST releasewould be great.

 

[Gravijah]

but of course it's not gonna have all of the music.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

It comes with a sound track.

For some reason, I thought that was an Anniversary soundtrack. Stupid brain.

EDIT: I apologise to my brain and so should all of you.

 

[Mlatador]

even more than smg? can it even be topped?

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

The CD is not the Skyward Sword soundtrack.

 

[BurntPork]

It's not a soundtrack CD; it's a CD including music from the concert tour.

EDIT: beaten

 

[Electivirus]

Yes, I should've been clearer, but I meant a full Skyward Sword soundtrack, not the concert CD that comes with the Anniversary Edition of the game.

 

[jett]

Someone will rip all the of the audio out of the disc anyway.

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

Someone will rip all the of the audio out of the disc anyway.

All on YouTube one week before eur release.

 

[Electivirus]

Personally, I'd prefer the real thing. It'd be a shame for Nintendo not to release a Skyward Sword soundtrack after going through so much effort for its music.

 

[wrowa]

Someone will record the concerts one months before release anyway.

(And I cant wait for that to happen!)

 

[jett]

Well they released full soundtracks for SMG1 and 2 so I don't see why they wouldn't for this one.

Nintendo's really...inconsistent when it comes to soundtrack releases nowadays. Last Zelda soundtrack they actually bothered to release was for Wind Waker.

 

[MYE]

Topping SMG1/2's ost is almost impossible, but if it manages to do it..... oh man

 

[Kard8p3]

I can't wait for the music to show up a week before the game comes out. I remember the week before galaxy 2 when all it's music leaked. We went crazy over how amazing the final boss theme was.

Thing is Skyward Sword will likely have more tracks which means more opportunities to fall short at points. Still though I think it'll at least be as great as the Galaxy music with some tracks topping the best from galaxy.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Don't worry they will. They'll release it on Club Nintendo in Japan, then Europe and Australia will follow, but North America will not get it.

And the credits song!!! I squealled like a little girl lol

Stop it with the NoA shit, Jesus Christ. It's depressing enough as it is.

 

[Boney]

how can you guys spoil yourself the soundtrack like that

 

[Amir0x]

yeah i ain't touching that. Game soundtracks are definitely meant to be heard in-game first.

God I can't believe how close we are now. Gettin' surreal

 

[Electivirus]

I am a massive VGM enthusiast. I can honestly say I'm looking forward to the soundtrack more than I am the game itself, and that's saying something.

 

[Kard8p3]

The soundtrack made me want to play Galaxy 2 even more. I wont be spoiling the soundtrack for this but I will listen to some of it.

It's still 50 days away.

 

[EatChildren]

I'm most eager to hear more of the dungeon track from the E3 demo. Hearing that in person was just stunning, and is the most memorable of the compositions heard so far for me.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

I was just going by the Galaxy soundtracks. Sorry :/
Though Galaxy 2 hasn't been release outside of Japan, yet.

I'll probably end up getting my soundtrack copy (assuming there IS one) second-hand as I did with Galaxy 1 and 2. Feh.

49 days and 10 hours for me D:

Me to. I couldnt believe how much I liked that music; want to hear more

The thing with the 2D games is the combat is pretty much a crap shoot most of the time, and extremely unbalanced in LttP. If you have the lightning rolls you can keep everything at bay and the game is a cakewalk, lose half a heart and suddenly when a bunch of guards are on your tail you can lose six hearts at once.

Pretty much cemented my thinking that Zelda is a puzzle game with light action elements.

Dude that's only 7 weeks, which means 7 more episodes of grey's anatomy and I'll have SS in my hands (yes I'm using a random TV show as my countdown, got a problem with that?)

Uh, don't you love Twilight Princess?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Yes. And what was the best part of TP? The dungeons.

Spoiler

And Midna.

 

[shadyspace]

TP's combat was the best of the franchise.

 

[oatmeal]

ZELDA II, FOOL.

 

[udivision]

TP's combat was the best of the franchise.

Each 3D game just got better in that aspect, since they built off the last. I guess MM was the least improved.
