Majoras mask sequal

Woudn't it be cool if they make a Zelda game carrying on from Majoras mask. It would have the same Music the same Link and the same characters such as Anju, Ingo and Postman. Maybe on the ds so it could have the same graphics what do you think?

Re: Majoras mask sequal

Well if there is one, I doubt it would be the same Link.
Link returns to the Lost Woods at the end of MM. And Ingo isn't in MM. The Gormon brothers take his place.

Another Termina game would be cool, but it'll never happen, and if it did, they'd probably ruin it. That game was a one-of-a-kind experience and it'd be hard to make another game that lived up to it.

well, not really.
i don't see anything wrong at all with a sequel.
i mean, i see TP as a sequel to OoT, and it wasn't ruined
the land of termina has a whole load of potential,
i'd love a termina based game to come out
in fact i'm hoping the next one is

Well TP was very simliar to OoT, but it wasn't a direct sequel as the maker of this thread is hoping for with MM.

The difference is though, that OoT was the basic Zelda format. 8 dungeons. Dual gameplay [child and adult link] defeat Ganon. Save the Princess.

Majora's Mask was far different. It was more mysterious, had only four dungeons, focused on gameplay rather than just dungeons and fighting, had a unique time system, and was the first Zelda game to REALLY make the NPC's a major part.

If another game was made in Termina, it would have to be equally as special and unique or it just wouldn't feel right.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

Erimgard has the jist of what Majora's Mask is: a one-of-a-kind experience. You can recycle A Link to the Past over and over again (and they still are), but Majora's Mask was that remarkable something you should be grateful to have even played.

The story was resolved perfectly. Because of that, my finely narrowed point of view sees no need to do any sort of sequel to MM.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

Agreed. I'd totally buy a remake for the Wii with Higher Graphics, different controls, and maybe some added stuff.

Remakes... bah... sequels... bah. I'd rather experience something entirely new. And I don't think a MM sequel would work anyway.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

Of all the things they could possibly do with the Zelda franchise, I hope that a sequel to MM is the last thing we see. I get so pumped when a new Zelda game is coming out that I shake with anticipation. But if the new game was a MM sequel I don't even think I would buy it.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

The guy who stays at Stock Pot Inn is actually a third Gorman brother, who leads a troupe of circus performers that usually put up a show for the Carnival of Time. It's easy to mistake him for someone unrelated since his methods aren't nearly as underhanded as his other two brothers (who use every chance to gain the upper hand over Romani Ranch)

While a part of me wants to return to Termina, it's probably best that we don't. Much of my love for Majora's Mask stems from the atmosphere of mystery and intrigue that the game constantly veils itself in. If a sequel (or even a prequel) took the layers of the unknown off of the game and exposed answers to all of the questions swirling in my head, I don't think I'd respect the sequel nor the original Majora's Mask nearly as much as I do right now. For that reason, I'd wager MM is probably a classic best left untouched.

By the way... I'm curious as to what you mean by "feel" here. While the games were tied by gameplay mechanics and mirrored characters, Ocarina of Time was a completely different experience from Majora's Mask.

I know they have different experiences butthere is a certain magic that you get from both games.

That "magic" is called Nostalgia. Which is why they feel the way they do...And why TMC doesn't feel as magical as LTTP did/does to play.

I'd be up for a Majora's Mask remake if it maybe fixed the save mechanic. Save the game anywhere and continue from that point instead of those owl statues.

Everything else in the game was a work of art and I would enjoy seeing it remade in Modern day graphics.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

The story is done. Move on people. New games! New ideas! New Concepts!

Also, MM was a great game. That doesn't mean a sequel would be aswell.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

I doubt they'd make a sequel to the game, first of all. Majora's Mask can now safely be considered an old game. I'm not sure of the release date, but it was originally made for the N64, and later put on the Collector's Disc for the Gamecube. It was also a follow-up to OoT, making it a sequel by itself.
Second, I don't think a sequel to the game would be able to even touch MM. Usually, sequels aren't as good as the first. MM is an exception to this, as it is a truly magnificant game. I doubt they could do it again in a follow-up to MM. Being such a great game, and having such an ending, it'd be hard to do such.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

In MM, the story ended. Majora's Mask is dead, the Fierce Deity is either dead or non-canon, and there were no problems left. Despite what some theorists think, Termina is not a sinful land that the Goddesses wish to destroy, so there won't be any divine wrath. Going back to Termina would either be:

A: pointless
B: rehashing the stuff in MM
C: A prequel, which makes no sense considering that there were no ancient demons or monsters in Termina.

All Nintendo has to do is add some system that works like the masks, and maybe create a time system. We don't need to go back to Termina to have the gameplay from Termina.

How many times has a new story spawned in Hyrule?
Wouldn't have to be necessarily a 'sequel' to Majora's Mask to take place in Termina.
But, yeah, we'll never see another Termina game again, and that's probably a good thing because I think it's great how it is and adding another game there would probably ruin it.

Termina was a parallel land created for MM. It is hard to access, and there doesn't appear to be a Terminian version of Link. Having a second game in Termina would be pointless, seeing as how it wouldn't have the same effect on the player, and Nintendo would likely reuse the character models from TP instead of creating new content. It would be easier to have the game take place in Hyrule.

Oh, I agree 100% that it wouldn't make much sense and that Nintendo will never do it. I'm just saying it's possible to start over with a new enemy.

If someone you back in 1988 that in the future, a game would be made in Hyrule where the enemy is a tiny little creature who used a magic hat to turn into a Wind Mage and such...would you have believed it?

The difference in scenarios, and the clincher for me, is that Termina is a non-Hyrule land. They NEVER get sequels in the Zelda series.

Re: Majoras mask sequal

I think the greatness of Majora's Mask is left in its ambiguity in the end. Nobody knows what happened to Link or the Happy Mask Salesman. As the story in Wind Waker goes, that Link vanished away. You certainly couldn't use Hyrule again.

The backstory of Wind Waker doesn't refer to Link's going to Termina and disappearing. It refers to Link being sent back in time in the adult ending of Ocarina of Time. Unless you believe in a linear timeline, that is.
