New Zelda games aren't good

I love the old ones for the handhelds like ALTTP, etc. But these new ones integrate the touch screen way too much. I got that first zelda game for ds lst year(cant remember name) with the boat, and that game was pretty bad. I got spirit tracks for christmas, and I havent even played it yet, but I watched videos online, and it looks like more of the same. I wish they would just make zelda games like the old ones...they were far better.

i somewhat agree with them bringing the old style back i enjoyed links awakening, oracle of season and ages , a link to the past and minish cap far more than i enjoyed phantam hourglass and spirit tracks. although spirit tracks is still a lot better than phantom hourglass.

i think they should have integrades minimal touch screen like just to throw the boomerang or something and let you use buttons and dpad like the old games.

Age of Oracles and Age of Seasons those 2 games were fantastic, I howvever have simply left the handheld Zelda since Phantom Hourglass. One Dungeon and I was bored out of my mind. The touchscreen feels like a poor implementation and idea overall for control and it didn't seem to have the spirit of the Zelda games anymore.

Twilight Princess is my favorite console Zelda.

Spirit Tracks is my favorite handheld Zelda.

Phantom Hourglass is my second favorite handheld Zelda.

And what are you going to do about it?

What a waste of a thread. BLOG IT! Ya i hated PH, but i like Spirit Tracks, not a fan of touch but it does well in Spirit Tracks, My favorite handheld zelda is minish cap

I got spirit tracks for christmas, and I havent even played it yet

Then how can you say it's no good?

[QUOTE="DaViD_99"]The zelda fanbase is confusing... And Im loving Spirit Tracks. ALTTP was actually a SNES game ported to the GBA. Great game, been a while since I played it. It also seems as if you are going into Spirit Tracks already hating it.San_09

The sonic fanbase is WAAAAAAYYY worse.

I just aren't a fan of Zelda games on the DS they use the capabilities way to much you don't use the D Pad or other buttons at all.

Blog next time. kthx.

And Zelda fans are so weird. Most of 'em, anyways. They put ALTTP and OoT on a pedestal, and condemn every other Zelda game made. Phantom Hourglass was awesome. Sure, the hub Temple was a little repetitive, but really moreso than Majora's Mask? Which was an excellent game, by the way. Phantom Hourglass was a lot of fun, I loved the use of the stylus. It enabled so much innovation to be included, and it was taken to the next level in Spirit Tracks. If you don't like it, fine. But don't disguise your close mindedness by blaming the controls, or zomg-a-train.

Ya, I know it was a port from SNES, and those ones like Oracle of seasons and whatnot were also very good. And ya, wtf is up with random trains in a zelda game, this is supposed to be mideval times, isnt it?Stanley09

Yeah, I agree. Zelda is becoming too G-rated. I loved Ocarina, and I even loved Wind Waker, but that Wind Waker art style is wearing out its welcome, and I didn't care for Twilight Princess at all.uyiop0t

Aren't you the guy who said Cod was advocating torture??? MAybe it was someone else but if it was you do you have an alter ego or something?

This feels as if Nintendo experimented with the controls, but it still succeeded. I have only played PH yet the controls were good. I saw nothing wrong with them. PH was the first Zelda game I'd played, ever, seriously. Without any previous experience I had a good time playing it. Playing the other Zelda games later, I found some of them to be better, but only ALTTP to do better by far.

Um in System Wars? I made a thread yesterday saying how I thought it was cruel and careless the Call of Duty characters act, and you called me stupid saying I'm the type who changes the name of Christmas Tree to Holiday Tree.

And ive seen gameplay videos of it online so I know what it is like, it looks very similar to phantom hour glass which is a bad thing... Oh well, I'll probably just keep it enclosed, not open it, and sell it at some point.Stanley09

See what I mean guys?

*sigh*

I got spirit tracks for christmas, and I havent even played it yetStanley09

And then an hour later:

Once I got used to spirit tracks, the game was still boringStanley09

Its kinda hard to take your criticism seriously when you're resorting to lying to justify your opinion.

[QUOTE="San_09"][QUOTE="DaViD_99"] Dude, the Zelda fanbase are one of the worst, ever... Literally complain about everything... You should have went to the ST board the first time it was announced, just to see the amount of train jokes and ''OOh trains! This game takes place in industrial rev, so we may hav gunzzz next!!'' Idiots, this is a fantasy game.... Umm, right anyway, TC the game is on the DS. The DS has a touch screen. Expect games to use the touch screen, San_09

he did say he didnt play spirit tracks yet then in a nother reply he said he didnt like it lolol. how can u not like something if you havent played it and if its sitting in front of you open it up and play it instead of moaning about it with out actually playing it :Pmerch

First off, you are wrong. I have found both Zelda DS games to be fantastic.And since I am really a newbie to the ongoing franchise,I haven't really played any of the previous titles except for Minish Cap and Ocarina of Time, and I didn't consider those games to be amazing. I may be wrong, and there might be older Zelda games that are way better than the DS ones, but right now, I firmly believe that the new games are awesome.

zelda is the ONE series i know will be awesome with each game
i've been a fan since OoT and i have never been let down since
sounds like you're not a real fan....

I liked PH but was dissapointed at how little islands there were. ST was better but the traveling was a little annoying. They are wearing it a bit thin though not just the touch scrren thats still ok with me for a bit longer but the art style is getting old. I vote in favor of OofT/MM style or even a remake.

Arent good? If anything they are better!

I love the new Zelda games for the DS, I think the puzzles are very cool. I like Phantom Hourglass more than Spirit Tracks though, but I haven't completed Spirit Tracks yet so I don't know if it will stay so.

The touch screen controls are a good thing. They give you analog, omnidirectional control over Link.

I honestly like to two ds zelda games a lot. People need to stop complaining about the touch screen controls, it's something new and if you don't like it then don't play the game. The point is that the controls actually work, and work well. The only thing that i don't really like about the two games is that they're a lot easier... and traveling takes to long.

Honestly,controlling Link via the touch screen was imprecise to me,and I would have preferred the D-Pad for movement.

I liked phantom hourglass and like wat i'm seeing of spirit tracks but i WOULD have liked there to be more integrated d pad controls and such instead of all touch. Yes the old games were great, but the new games are able to achieve certain welcomed innovations such as the touch cannon, touch oriented puzzles,wider uses of weapons + gadgets, and an overall smoother and in depth feel to the game. yea basically i like the ds zeldas but want an added ds zelda like the older ones.
