well my point is that this is probably going to be on the NEXT nintendo system, like after the wii. but yeah the graphics aren't really a necessity, though it would be cool to see Link in 1080p =).

actually i just realized the Wii could perform this game, its powerful enough to have an open world just not HD graphics, which isn't really needed seeing as twilight princess looked unbelievable anyway.

The reason i want a giant area is mostly because as of now hyrule, termina, and this new area will all be in the game. how they will play in, we have to decide. also i meant that this would allow more freedom and exploration, and players could be able to drift from the plotline whenever they want and pursue actually interesting and cool sidequests that have alot of conflict, so there will be new cities and everything so that after the players beat the game, they can still roam around the area and do things and they will probably never get bored.

but i can see why most of us would hate that, and yes travel in twilight princess got very tiresome, but think about how much more exciting we could make that travel? what about people stalking link, or actually challenging enemies that ambush you? plus again sidequests will be in abundance in this game.

and yes i know that nintendo putting the games on the 360 and the ps3 will never happen, which is why i said sadly they would have to do that, and since nintendo should completely own it zelda will always stay on nintendo consoles. then again, what if bioware (mass effect) or bethesda softworks (oblivion), or both of them aided in making the game for nintendo, only releasing it on nintendo systems? this would be a need cause the open world and sidequest parts are things bioware and bethesda do EXTREMELY WELL, and Nintendo is also a great story teller.

Seriously, if this is done right this could be a beast of a game.

and thank you for the points khao, ill take your opinions seriously, again this is a community project.
