    1st \o/

  • Cyhwuhx #2 9 years ago

    .::: May I be player 2 then?

  • FWB #3 9 years ago

    What is the problem with doing a proper next-gen version?

  • Blerk #4 9 years ago

    So is this one going to be multi-player only, or is there a single-player game in there somewhere?

  • ST.. #5 9 years ago

    This a GC game? why Nintendo why?

    People will buy this thinking it's a proper Zelda sequel, your just destroying the franchise with shit like this.

    SNES era graphics on a GC?

  • sheepsteak #6 9 years ago

    These are the sort of ideas that should be reserved for online games. I don't know anyone else with a GC AND a GBA :(
    However I wouldn't need to if they did this game over the net *sigh*

  • Fenrir #7 9 years ago

    Looks like a four-player remix of LttP with some added side-on bits.

    Just as arse as Tetra's Trackers then.

    Note to Nintendo: It's damn near impossible to find four people in my
    neck of the woods, all willing to play Zelda at the same time.

  • reto #8 9 years ago

    How many people to these GC-GBA link up games actually appeal to? I dont just mean "oh thats nice and innovative" but who will actually buy them for the feature?

    Everyone has to have a GBA (and possibly a copy of the game). I'd rather just load up Halo or F-Zero X

  • Bill Gates is Evil #9 9 years ago

    OH MY GOD.

    This is such a terrible idea.

  • Oceadge #10 9 years ago

    Why is this in the GBA section?

  • Blerk #11 9 years ago

    Given the graphics, it's easy to mistake for a GBA game. Sadly.

  • FWB #12 9 years ago

    Because EG couldn't believe for one minute that Nintendo would be so lame as to to port this with no fucking graphical improvement whatsoever.

    They were wrong.

  • Blerk #13 9 years ago

    So do we know if this is multiplayer only yet, or what? :-)

  • Lutz #14 9 years ago

    Am I missing something? This is GBA not GC?

    /gets coat

  • Blerk #15 9 years ago

    I think it's GBAs linked to GC. Or summat. o_O

    Somebody answer the 'multiplayer only' question!

  • Lutz #16 9 years ago

    Blerk, I heard that 4 swords was for 2 to 4 people only...
    ???

  • Pirotic #17 9 years ago

    Nintendo have never, produced a multi-player only title.. even Mario Party had CPU players, so unless this game is an 'extra' to single player title i suspect the CPU can take control of the other characters,

    by logic, i've only ever seen 4 zelda's on screen, so that sorta backs up the CPU theory.

  • Zero Beat #18 9 years ago

    Looks like a lot of fun, needs single player though definitely.

  • Blerk #19 9 years ago

    A few places have done previews now, but nobody mentioned single-player again! Buggeration!

    Anyway, after reading the previews I'm much less interested - it's not even a proper Zelda game! There's no RPGing as such, it's a straight 'collect all the rupees on the screen' arcade-style experience. So that's crap, then.

  • Blerk #20 9 years ago

    Cooperative Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past

    It's not though, is it? It's a multiplayer arcade game using the Zelda graphics. If it'd have been a new 2D Zelda I'd have been all over it, but it's sounding like a cheap cash-in. Bah.

  • Blerk #21 9 years ago

    Am I wrong then?

    Yeah - the game is nothing to do with Link to the Past. It just shares a load of its graphics. This is an entirely new game, along the lines of the Four Swords mini-game in the GBA version of LttP. No version of LttP features in this one.

  • shirubagan #22 9 years ago

    The screenshots, for some reason, look like they've been composited. Note the blurry main screen and the crisp definition of the faces, scores and other overlays. Weird.

    This game looks like great fun to me!

  • Aga #23 7 years ago

    So this is being dragged up again then.

    Released today isnt it. And great bragging skills awarded to Nemesis for being first.

  • Sid-Nice #24 7 years ago

    OH MY GOD.

    This is such a terrible idea.

    And a special award should go to BGiE for being such an expert on videogames. :)

  • robthehermit #25 7 years ago

    4 swords is fantastic. I got it a couple of months back. quality through and through.
