Zelda arrives on PS2???
« on: March 21, 2002, 07:48:37 PM »
According to the April \'02 edition of Playstation Magazine, the orginal Zelda (ya know before the cell shading)  will now be on PS2.  Nintendo\'s feeling are that they will keep Gamecube to a younger audience, while they can profit off the older crowd on PS2.

Is this a smart move or a dumb move by Nintendo?

You\'ve been betrayed and left for dead.  Now you\'re taking revenge, unless the city streets get you first.  Mob boses need a favor, crooked cops need help and street gangs want you dead.  You\'ll have to rob, steal, and just plain kill to survive

I subscribe to that magazine and was fooled at first too. For those who still dont know, it was the April magazines "April Fools" trick.

No Zelda on PS2. Sorry.

Haha!

When I first saw this thread I said to myself... "That idiot fell for it! HAHA hilarious.."

This was just a good laugh...:D

Since Next-Gen died I\'ve been getting that magazine.. It\'s not bad... But I hate it that PS2 only, cause I wanna know what\'s going on with Xbox and Gamecube too.:(
.... take the skin and peel and back...

now doesn\'t it make you feel better?

Well, this move is going to ruin their self-rep, but oh well. It\'s not like they had anything there left to sacrifice.

I see it as if they have some "decent" and I do mean decent character modeling, textures, sound clips, acting, and some good gameplay, it has potiental. Zelda attracts as many freaks as Mario does, and it will sell regardless of the effort put in. But pending whether Nintendo\'s strategy lies successful is what I just mentioned just up there on what it needs to accomplish off the bat.

We definately don\'t need Nintendo acting like it has a massive bad ass ego (insert big N joke here) and go out of their way and make some redicilous marketing campign that shows Zelda with a gun or making out with another Zelda look alike. Just do enough to attract the rest of us whose time is better spent off playing some GTA3.
You think positive, I\'ll think realistic.
