What happend to the Goriya and Lynel?

Im an oldhead, so all you N64 peeps please bare with me. Both these enemies have had significant appearances in early 2-D zeldas. But why has Nintendo completely neglected them in 3-D games?

For the newschool 3-D people who dont even know what Im talking about

GORIYA:

LYNEL:

Doesnt Nintendo value nostalgia? Or is there a reason these dudes have yet to be seen in a newer Zelda game? Same holds true for other oldschool badies: Pols Voice, Moblin & Like Like (as far as TP is concerned), etc.

I'd like to hear everyones opinions. Thanks.

Yeah I'm a bit surprised the didn't make another type of Lynel...but how would the implement the Goriya. He kinda looks like a monk guy...or something that would use magic. But we already have wizrobes...and they rocked in WW.

First, there was no Wizrobes at all in TP....big let down.

Secondly, Goriya have never used magic in the past. They were almost always considered as the boomerang/projectile expert enemies. Twilight Princess could have easily implemented the Goriya in the Forest Temple....forget that Monkey subboss, replace him with a Goriya cameo. Or atleast make him a simple enemy - as the theme of the dungeon somewhat revolved around the boomerang.

Goriya was great. I'd like to see him return.

As for Lynel... I think he'd be quite interesting as a horseback enemy.

Just look at the artists rendition of the Lynel....how freaking killer would that be to fight that dude on horseback....what the hell is wrong with Nintendo for not realizing that?

I think Lynel coulda been great in TP! But im thinking that Goriya would be kinda weird in TP, better for WW. But those are two awesome enemies.

I think Goriyas were in ALttp and they used magic. If that was them in ALttp I loved them because they were just a special enemy to beat.

Also there were no octrock in TP just those spitting waterball fish.

Re: What happend to the Goriya and Lynel?

hmm, come to think of it you might be right. Aside from throwing boomerangs around, I definately recall the green Goriya mimicking Links every move - Link moves left, Goriya moves right; Link attackas, Goriya attacks. Mighgt be cool to see that reintroduced in a 3-D puzzle map...maybe something along the lines of those 2 statues protecting the Master Sword in TP.
