Four Swords 3D

Alright, I think it would be somewhat cool if a new FS game was released in 3D. It could be a totally new game or a remake. I would prefer it be a new game rather than a remake, but...
It could have TP's graphic style or something similar. It could be multiplayer or singleplayer.



Discuss.

Re: Four Swords 3D

I don't think a new FS game was in TP's graphic style. If you look back at Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures, those are in the artwork and style of Wind Waker. So I think Wind Waker would be the best option for the graphics.

Re: Four Swords 3D

It would be nice, but let's wait a while for that to happen
Also, you'd have a problem with storyline. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the whole Four Swords saga over with?

Re: Four Swords 3D

Just because it's a Four Sword game, doesn't mean it has to tie in to the previous Four Sword games. It could take place at some other point, Teekay.

Re: Four Swords 3D

No, I think this would destroy the advantages of a 2D (or 2,5D) Four Swords game, especially when it comes to level design. One of the best things of the first Four Swords game (on the GBA) were the randomly generated levels. This was really cool and added something to the replay value. We're not at the point, where randomly generated 3D content can be done in a way, that doesn't look cheap. The second advantage is the possibility of an easy level editor. User generated content becomes more and more popular and I could imagine, that the multiplayer mode of Spirit Tracks will have a stage builder like the one in SSB Brawl. Since the 2,5D graphics on the DS aren't as advanced, you could easily build levels, that look exactly like the original content of the game (unlike in SSB Brawl, where the visuals of custom levels were pretty bad compared to the rest of the game). A multiplayer game lives from new content, randomly generated levels as well as user generated levels are important possibilities for keeping a multiplayer game alive. And I believe, if Nintendo creates more multiplayer experiences for Zelda, they want to use these advantages and therefore 3D would be a bad choice, because those feature wouldn't be simple enough or maybe even not possible with 3D.

Multiplayer games have to look simple to be fun. Why do you think Tetris and Wii Sports are wildly popular? It's the same reason, why Nintendo now makes with New Super Mario Bros. Wii the first 2D Mario game on a console since the SNES era, instead of just adding a co-op mode to Super Mario Galaxy 2 and advertising this instead. 3D is not always better. Because 3D makes games more complicated. And I believe the same applies to the future of multiplayer gaming in Zelda. Right now the Zelda team focuses on adding multiplayer Zeldas to the DS and I can't wait, how the mutliplayer mode of Spirit Tracks will look like (hopefully better than what we got in Phantom Hourglass). And I believe, if Nintendo does a new Four Swords game on the Wii, it will be 2D or 2,5D and they will advertise it as a simple and fun Zelda experience, much like New SMB Wii.

And I would support that. I couldn't get any of my friends of playing a complicated 3D Zelda with me, it has to be simple and addicting. Like Wii Sports, or Mario Kart or New SMB Wii. Therefore a 3D Four Swords game wouldn't be of any use for me, because I wouldn't have anyone to play with (except for online maybe, but bah... online gaming is never as fun as local multiplayer).

Re: Four Swords 3D

I, for one, would love mutliplayer in a 3D Zelda. Because I have played Spinter Cell: Chaos Theory (Xbox, other versions not worth mention).

Cooperative actions in 3D as seen in that title would be way improved with some co-op item puzzles, like using a Hookshot on a wooden shield to meet your P2 across a gap or shooting your arrow through his torch to melt an unreachable ice block.
I can come up with like a billion more of these off the top of my head, several of which seem cooler in 3D than they would be in 2D, and they'd all be awesome.

Re: Four Swords 3D

I don't know, I kind of like console Zelda's as a single-player adventure. But I'll be all in favor for some Four Swords versus mini-game or something.
