The Link to the Past levels in the new DSi/eShop Four Swords game are a good sign.
If it's Zelda, I will buy it. Hell, if it's first party Nintendo I will buy it.

Fully agree with you. A Link to the Past was a blast and remaking it with a 3D effect sounds finally like an argument for me to buy a 3DS. :D
Ya know... I mean, this is a neat idea and everything, but you ever think maybe Nintendo ought to try something different? I just wonder how long they can get by with putting all their eggs in the same two baskets. I don't know, just a thought.
I think Aonuma has been trolling us for a while,he says exciting shit that gives us permaboners without actually saying it outright.
He's probably in his office in Japan with a troll face as he watches us get hyped from things that may possibly happen.
AONUMA!!!

@Tristrix: It's not like they're not evolving their franchises. As long as there's balance beetween looking back and looking ahead, I'm all for it. When it comes to new franchises, well, that's a totally different thing. New japanese franchises simply CANNOT get a foothold on western market nowadays, for whatever reason, and Nintendo is not on the most comfortable position to take blind shots.
@Springsteen
They absolutely are evolving the franchises. Galaxy 2 is up there with my favorite games of this generation. I don't dispute that those two baskets I mentioned are the two best IPs in the history of gaming. They absolutely are. I just feel like they're not enough to support a console anymore.

LTTP is my favorite Zelda game of all time. I don't own a DS, but this would make getting one very tempting.
@Tristix: Totally correct. The fact that I'm willing to shell out the dough for a new console for those franchises alone doesn't mean the average user is willing to. I just don't think there's much they can do. It's not like Nintendo is going to come up with the next big teenager thing like Call of Duty. Anything brand new they may come up with will probably become niche.
@Tristrix
Are the two baskets for new and old games or for Zelda and Mario? Is there a basket for Metroid? And does the Prime series get its own basket? I just need to know how many baskets we're dealing with here.

Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks with use of the joystick? I'll take it! Just don't make some gimmicky way of traveling around the overworld...
Fuck. Do it Nintendo. I dare you. This is the game that will sell me a 3DS. I have been begging Nintendo for this for years.

Dude, I don't know. I didn't think it through that far. Like I said, just a random thought. I was talking about Mario and Zelda but I'm sure you can name a dozen more and call your point proven and I probably wouldn't argue. It's not something I'm losing sleep over. I just considered those two IPs the console-sellers but if you bought a Wii or a 3DS for another reason, there ya go.

If by "new" they mean taking A Link to the Past, making it 3D and repackaging it as "new" then yeah... sounds about right.

When he says "lights" I want you to shout "baskets" over it as loud as you can, and you'll have your answer.

I'm all for it. Nearly everything that miyamoto is involved in turns to gold. That man is pure gaming genius. 3 of the gaming franchises he's created have easily won my heart as well as millions of others. I'm ready for another top down Zelda. Lttp, seasons, and ages are some of my favorite Zelda games.
I normally don't jump on when Nintendo remakes an old game that I already own, but I'd buy this if it were to exist.
I don't want to take credit for this but I totally imagined this after getting my hands on the 3DS for the first time. This is awesome!
I fell in love with Zelda with Ocarina of Time but I never played the NES/SNES era games so yes Nintendo, please remake them!!!!
Hopefully this happens and very,VERY soon,my body is ready...
But please,no one make Operation Pastfall or anything like that,we dont have to make an Operation everytime Aonuma hints at something.

A Link to the Past is absolutely my favorite Zelda game (best dungeons and music in the series), so yeah I want this bad. I reaaaaally want 2D sprites, though.
Hmmm, not sure if another top down Zelda is a good idea.
I think most people will agree that Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, which indeed were good games, didn't hold the same standard as Link to the Past and Link's Awakening.
However, a remake of Link to the Past, complete with new dungeons to accommodate for OoT-style gameplay would be fantastic!

I believe Links Awakening is the one that would benefit more of a good remake. I would get that for sure.
Yes, nintendo, don't make more Ocarina of Time like games in your portable, make shitty Spirit Tracks like games.
=_= This is a bad idea

Oh Nintendo, rereleasing the same games every generation. Do I look like a sucker?? More importantly, does Gamespot take preorders on game "concepts" because I'm holding the cash right goddamn now!
How about we see a re release package the GB/GBA zelda games instead?
Actually ..... I know they won't because they would rather piecemeal it to us.... but how about all the Zelda games from NES,SNES & GB/A on one cart. That I would buy the hell out of.

Well they already remade Ocarina of Time to please some fans, they might as well remake the best Zelda game ever made at this point, and do a game similar to A Link to the Past.
I know we already had Four Swords, but clearly the best game in the series needs to be followed up.
