Looks like this games going to be the first ever Zelda sandbox. To an extent. Right from the get-go Ravio's Shop has all the special items you need to go about clearing any dungeon, in any order you want. I'm sure wallet sizes and lack of heart containers will limit you from going straight to Gannon but I can imagine some interesting speed runs being executed this way. Arrows, magic, etc. all regenerate over time so you don't have to buy, or search for supplies. Rupees, hearts, and fairies will still need to be sought out and collected. I guess the Link from ALTTP either sold/left all his stuff to Ravio, or forgot to write a will... A Link Between Worlds takes place a few generations after ALTTP in the same Hyrule.

I really like this idea, maybe you even get to choose the order of the dungeons depending on what item you buy. Hmmm today I feel like playing an ice dungeon etc...

Yeah it could be nice. A part of me thinks this could be game breaking but I know they will find ways around it to stop you from speed running it straight to Gannon in the first 10 minutes.

Of course they will, in every Zelda game you need all of the "insert temple boss item here > ________ <" before you fight the final boss.

Well you've always got the item you need to reach the next dungeon before killing the boss in every Zelda game... Sometimes in LTTP I just ran the dungeons to get the item then moved onto the next dungeon in the Dark World, but you still needed all the crystals before you could get into Ganons Tower

Definitely some connection between Majoras Mask and this game. We might just see Majoras Mask 3D in the next few years on 3DS. Notice how the animals in the Dark World seem to be wearing masks. Two seem to be in the Majora style. Oh and anyone notice that thing hanging on the wall there on the right? I think this game takes place after Majoras Mask so these could just be easter eggs and hints to future Zelda games but it's exciting anyway.

Haha just kidding, I remember a friend said that to me once. It went something like this. Friend: "Wouldnt it be great if Zelda was on the Xbox" Me: That would never happen because Nintendo keep the rights so they can sell more consoles. Friend: But think about it, it would be so much better on Xbox, Nintendo are stupid for not doing it. Me:

Just some things better left in the hands of their makers. Pokemon Zelda Mario These franchises will come and go in a persons life but there will always be that mid-life crisis or that bit of nostalgia that will have us itching to play them again and that is what Nintendo is counting on.
I work with a guy who hasn't played Mario since Super Mario World. He's almost 30 now and hasnt owned a game console in 12 years and he got the itch last month. $250 later he lost the itch and Nintendo smiled.
