Will there be a Zelda 128 or something like that? The Nintendo team has made this game such an awesome one that they will not want the next to be anything less, but so much more. Nintendo has entered itself in a endless loop of fine gaming. After we get our copies November 23 and we all sit down and play it over and over and over until exaustion, we will probably think more of Nintendo and the series. Now, the big N is a smart company and understands what's going on and they will evedently try to 'top' their last game, making it better in all areas: sound, graphics, length, satisfaction, play control etc. When will it stop? (I certainly dont want it to)... but if the games keep getting better it is a logical assumption that they will take longer to complete, right? If it takes as long as it did for Zelda 64 to come out as the next game in the series, I'm going to be really OLD! But I suppose that for some unknown reason, if there is a limited amount of games, there will be more demand, more nostalgia, and the game will be promoted more so than ever. What do you guys think?
