Yep, I knew there was going to be some backlash for mentioning those blasphemous titles. I was waiting for someone to explode at their mention. Sorry about missing the Four Swords Adventure in my count there Serkol. I remembered that FS and FSA were not the same thing when I went to bed last night. I cursed myself when I remembered, then thought, "No big deal, Serkol will point it out."

I look forward to seeing the various incarnations of link in the game soon i imagine link will fight as an individual, rather than being in a group?

[DiddlyDark]

Oh, btw Paul, +rep to you for being brave enough to mention the CDi titles.

They do not exist.

Honestly I'd rather play the CD-i games then Spirit Tracks or Skyward Sword. At least they are so awful that it's hilarious.

Be careful who you say that to. The existance of the CDi is blasphemy in some Zelda circles. Saying you prefer that over ST may be OK, but you will ignite a lot of rage by saying that it is better than SS.

You're talking to a man who would rather have Uwe Boll direct adaptations of every Zelda game before playing ST or SS, I'm sure he'll be fine.

I don't really care at this point to be honest. I'm attacked on a daily basis for the simple fact that my mod even exists. I could care less at this point if people are going to be immature over that fact that I prefer hilarious failures over missed opportunity.

[PaulH]

Probably best this discussion is nipped in the bud before it gets out of hand again. The expressing of such strong views can alienate supporters of the mod and splinters the fans which does not do the mod or the thread any good. Better for us all if we focus ourselves on mod performance, bug testing and conjuring ideas instead.


Edit for clarification: this was a general comment and aimed at no-one in particular

I was just joking around about the CDi thing Neph. I have absolutely no doubt that you have endured worse rage repeatedly and simply didn't care.

Well look on the bright side for every hater you have at least three people who love you.

The Zelda Game & Watch,
the Zelda Wristwatch Game,
the Barcode Battler game,
BS Zelda,
BS Zelda Map2,
BS Zelda Ancient Stone Tablets
Navi Trackers,
Link's Crossbow Training and
the three Tingle games (the two commercially released ones and the Balloon Fight one).

There, how about that?

Oh, btw Paul, +rep to you for being brave enough to mention the CDi titles.

You think that's brave? I own all three and played them more times than I have several main releases in the series (I used to have a lot of time on my hands before the internet).

Hahahaha epic saga in the world of Zelda. Still hope I can sometime play those games.

If you need any help (and believe me, you probably will if you take on Link the Faces of Evil), PM me, I know them like the back of my hand.

Now that you bring up your previous works...

Will Liyer be in the mod? :O

[Duke Serkol]

I always preferred Gaspra over Gwonam... though they are, ultimately, equally useless serving no other purpose than getting you to the land where the adventure takes place (i.e. their advice sucked).

I believe I categorized those in the "spinoffs" in the other post.

It's no worse than taking the advice of OoT Princess Zelda. Apparently, whoever told her about the Master Sword left out the part of "if a child pulls out the sword his soul will be stuck there until he comes of age to be the Hero of Time." Zelda's epic plan: Defeat Ganondorf by opening the door to the Sacred Realm for him. Link's response: I'M ON IT! I guess the plan worked out, even though it nearly resulted in an apocolypse.

In other news, spring break just started in Canada, and i'll be going to a four star resort for the holidays.

They have Spring in Canada? I thought they just had Winter and Colder Winter

[Quebecman]

yop Dilddy have reason is the beging of spring at Canada and at the Quebec but anyway this winter suck ass this year

You did. But the original question was how many Zelda games there are, not how many are there not counting spinoffs and you seemed to expect me to answer that one.
Plus, it's really debatable whether or not those fit the definition of spinoff. The Tingle games certainly do, but the Game & Watch? It's a videogame, has its own story and Link is in it. Would it be a spinoff just because it's an LCD? One could make the same arguments for all games on portable systems. Or for those not developed by Nintendo, like Oracles and the Minish Cap.

Yeah, in fact it's probably safer. Then again she was ten to twelve at the time.

Well, in at least one timeline Link bites it... and in another, after seven years ruled by Ganon, Hyrule appears to be saved only to later be sunken.
Of course considering it is the King of Hyrule that uses the Triforce to properly doom Hyrule instead of, I don't know, wishing Ganondorf dead, you could say it's in the family...
