despite Oracle remakes being pretty good for me, some of the only Zelda's I never got around to finishing, I REALLY wanna see the next step for 2D ZeldaYeah, we haven't had a new single player 2D Zelda since 2013, a new 2D DK since 2013, or a new 'traditional' or 'mainline' 2D Mario since 2012.
Reason to believe that'll change for Mario and DK in the next year or two, but I'm not sure about Zelda.
Yo. I have to remember to chat with you about Skyward.. let me know when you try it. I was super surprised about how much I'm loving that game.I bought Skyward Sword HD, and opened the box, next step is to put the cart in my Nintendo Switch when I finish Psychonauts 2.
Also, it's been a long time since I posted a link to the NintendoEra discord, so here is one (Quote to See) [Hidden content]
even just lurk. It's a mix of new and familiar faces and I've found it to be a super chill way to unwind.the discord is fun, people should join even if they only post occasionally
yeah it could've been way better. I also much preferred the new key art from todayI think the only aspect of Metroid Dread that isn't a 11/10 for me is the cover. Man, it's kinda ugly, which is a bit surprising given how incredible the Switch covers have been.

The issue with Zelda is where the development resources come from. Grezzo may well have moved on to a non-Zelda project again after Miitopia, given when they previously hired for Zelda projects, their hiring calls outright reflected that and their last hiring call was for a non-descript fantasy game. Secondly, the senior design group for 2D Zelda have cropped up on different games over the last few years, from what I could parse in the Nintendo development thread, which potentially indicates they haven't been working together on a new 2D Zelda game.I have a feeling we will get a new 2D Zelda before Oracle remakes. I'm guessing 2024?
I'm gonna miss unreal engine tree but big bird is really good lolNah we need more sesame street in our avatars.
I have updated mine by the way.
I'm gonna miss unreal engine tree but big bird is really good lol
wait I thought it was both? oops lol
I forgot that it even exists lol.the discord is fun, people should join even if they only post occasionally
it's fun
There's probably a tree or two in the background but it's not the focus.
There's definitely some sort of 2D Zelda project in the works, whether a remake or a new game. They're not going to stop after how well Link's Awakening sold.The issue with Zelda is where the development resources come from.

Earlier this year I was crazy optimistic about 2D Zelda emerging from somewhere. Now I'm really not so sure. In 2017 Aonuma wanted to keep the 2D/portable Zelda team independent of open world Zelda and he wanted them to similarly reimagine what the series could be, but it's been 4 years and nothing has come of that.
So who knows?
Out of curiosity, what makes the thread funnier to you now?three months ago I would've told you it's way better than the thread but I've been on leave from it for months now and while I was gone the thread got much funnier
Thanks, I will not sleep tonight.
I get the impression that the genocidal sect is a small but unfortunately more prevalent as of late part of the Chozo race... which is a weak distinction to make but good golly I hope they don't go full Who sh*ttythey're gonna harness the power of the

look I fucking hate the extremely problematic and sexist plot spaghetti fuckup that is Doctor Who but this has big "oh man RIP the timelords, so sad to be the last of my species, OH THEY'RE COMING BACK? JK FUCK NO THEY'RE ACTUALLY SUPER GENOCIDAL and them being CANCELLED FROM TIME WAS THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME" energy
My assumption is the genocidal Chozo wiped out the Friendly Samus-Raising Chozo, as well as maybe the Tallon IV Hippy Chozo, who might get referenced in this game as proof that Metroid Metroid and Metroid Prime both do get along.I get the impression that the genocidal sect is a small but unfortunately more prevalent as of late part of the Chozo race... which is a weak distinction to make but good golly I hope they don't go full Who sh*tty
Ishii is working on the new Mana in some capacity so he may be busy. But yeah I'd like Grezzo to work on something new.I really want Grezzo to handle non-2D Zelda stuff. 2D Zelda just isn't as important as KOICHI FUCKING ISHII doing all kinds of other projects, especially when his skillset is worldbuilding.
We'll also find out that Bad Bird murdered The Baby as well for maximum personal investmentMy assumption is the genocidal Chozo wiped out the Friendly Samus-Raising Chozo, as well as maybe the Tallon IV Hippy Chozo, who might get referenced in this game as proof that Metroid Metroid and Metroid Prime both do get along.
Also when Samus learns Violence Bird murdered Mom and Pops Bird, she'll turn directly to the camera and say: "this time it's personal" *heavy guitar riff*

Yeah, Grezzo needs to focus on making Ever Oasis a full fledged franchise. 3DS one was really good, it was like a cutesy Ys. Cannot wait to see what they'd do when they're not limited by 3DS hardware.I really want Grezzo to handle non-2D Zelda stuff. 2D Zelda just isn't as important as KOICHI FUCKING ISHII doing all kinds of other projects, especially when his skillset is worldbuilding.
Damn that's deepOG Metroid
Because Metroid means warrior in Chozo language and he is obviously an accomplished ancient warrior.
Funnily enough, the title of "Metroid" might actually be retroactively referring to Samus after all!
This is actually the correct answer and Samus killing this bird bloke is why this is the end of the Metroid's story.OG Metroid

I wonder if he can crawlOG Metroid

Lol you gotta love what Sakamoto did with the story in FusionFunnily enough, the title of "Metroid" might actually be retroactively referring to Samus after all!
Samus has been the Metroid all along and she can't crawl!!!
