dannbrownn Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I have just seen this as well, i can't help but get the feeling it might not be true, even though there doesn't seem to be any real evidence either way I just can't help but feel uneasy with the idea of a Zelda 'spin-off' especially one given such a high profile job, lets not run the risk of seeing Zelda go mario and risk tarnishing the proud name. Zelda Party 8 anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelda Party 8 anyone? Heck let's hope not, they nearly did it with metroid, but thankfully the game was just better then average -__-' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 i don't think it would work or be in third-person actually. It's strange though, didn't Shigsy mention something like this could be happening to Zelda games in the future around a year ago? I thought it would be more like that Dragon Quest game on the wii though or Resident Evil: UC. At the moment, i'm not feeling this and i doubt it's real anyway. However if it is, i have faith in Ninty that they can make something of it. It would be nice to know that the Zapper is still being used after Resi and Ghost Squad.

theguyfromspark Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Seems a little odd that you buy something to make your remote look like a gun and they give you a crossbow game to use it with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 O Rly?...Never ever seen Link wield a crossbow. And why a crossbow? Anyway, if true...GOD NO!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 O Rly?...Never ever seen Link wield a crossbow. And why a crossbow? Take away the bow part of a crossbow, and the Zapper looks a lot like one. More so than it looks like a gun. And It would get me to buy the Zapper.

theguyfromspark Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 The one big annoyance for me would be having multiple copies if you wanted more than one zapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowV7 Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Oh god I really hope this isn't true.I don't want Zelda spin-offs... If this is true it better be have decent and not a stupid spin off game to bundle with the zapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh_gamer Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I'd much rather have a Duck Hunt style game with the zpper tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Cookie Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 If this turns out to be true, I reserve my judgement. Still, can't say I go all jiggely with joy, but I think this might turn out to be alright. Navi Trackers (or originally Tetra's Trackers) was a 'Zelda spinoff', and turned out to be alright. If only they included it in Four Swords Adventures overhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 This will be a must have for zelda collectors. I wonder what we get to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfire Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Even if it's true, it's not even a game, it's just a tech demo that comes with the zapper don't see what the big deal is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 It could be as good as the Four Swords games people! Come on! They were kinda spin-offs! Also, it may not be real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 Personally I'm hoping this is fake. It seems like one of the worst ideas they could have had to bundle with it. They could have done Duck Hunt 2, a lightgun game somewhat like Rayman Raving Rabbids minigames, some sort of Mii-Paintball game... But Links Crossbow Training? Really?
