Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess were as about as dark as you could get without ruining the series.

A change of aesthetic would be nice though, maybe something more akin to Shadow of the Colossus?

Meaning...
 
NCL has always been good at managing their DS games. I hate how they've been announcing games since the beginning of last year as it's only been getting worse, but so far they've maintained a line-up almost as good last year. And, although it's not much of an excuse, I think any small difference is made up for it with the increasing amount of good 3rd party games available over the first half of last year.

We were fortunate last year that titles like ASH and Phantom Hourglass were announced well before Nintendo adopted this strategy to keep absolutely everything close until the very last minute so we knew they were coming. That's why what we know about NCL's line-up for the remainder of summer and beyond, much less the holiday season, is purely speculation at this point.

Not sure how much NoA will bring over though... :\

NoA undoubtedly has to step up a bit more when it comes to localization, I suppose it'd be hard to keep Treehouse localizations as good as they are if they just went crazy expanding though. At the same time, they need to do something about the increasing amount of titles that could go unlocalized, I hope not too many titles are left behind.

I agree. I'm not expecting them to being over Kanji Training or whatever, but it's crazy that Band Brothers never made it over. It'll be a crime if we never see ASH or Soma Bringer.

Gunstar Heroes, Ikaruga, Sin and Punishment, etc.
:O

Interesting. I've only read the summary but maybe Matt or whoever answered meant that Treasure had two games in development for whatever console and not necessarily Wii.

EDIT: Oh wait nvm, just read Milabrega's summary. Should be an interesting E3 this year!
 
Alright some cool little tidbits. Treasure on the Wii is good. I already said I would get We Love Golf when I saw Chun Li. Then more old stuff....

WTF. No No No. Let Retro do their own damn thing.

Why does Zelda NEED to be darker? TP struck a pretty good balance. MM went pretty far to one side too. What do they want? God of War with Link instead of Kratos? And it's not like Retro knows how to sell "dark storytelling." The main plot for the whole MP series was "uhhhh Metroid Prime uhhhhh go here and kill it."

Cassassasssassassssssssssssssasssasmina and Bozon have "make it darker" as their default on gaming opinions.
 
Dont forget "online multiplayer" and "normal mapping", the guy is basically a closet 360 fan, it seems kinda silly to want Nintendo be more like other companies when the reason people love it so much is because they arent.
 
Don't forget voice acting either. More things they never cease to whine about at every opportunity they get.

Is the Retro Studios question/answer a hint? Surfer Girl actually said they're working on a Zelda game.
Surfergirl also said that NoE would release Smash Bros. in April, my friends without Freeloaders are still waiting.
