Also: remember all that social problem-solving in Majora's mask? You know, talk to this person, learn his/her problem, try to solve it by talking to other people? That actually goes all the way back to the original Zelda, although it admittedly only extended as far as “give this letter to the Old Lady.”

It would be cool if that came back in a new way in the new Wii Zelda. I'd like it if we sometimes played as characters OTHER than Link, to resolve some background issue that is hindering Link's progress. For example, while Link is sleeping in some inn, another character would go arrange a distraction for some antagonists, to take place the next day. Then Link would find his path open when he treks out again the next day.

It's not that I don't like Link. It's just that sometimes the whole lonely hero thing gets tiresome. There are always cool side-characters in Zelda games; why can't we play as them?

Powering up your sword has been done in a lot of the zelda games though. Wind Waker, ALTP and so. It even appeared in the very first zelda game.

Made fighting easier

Staying calm improves one swordplay is a nice idea. That should make it more interesting to see the players as well.

- Puzzles that completely defy expectations, and are challenging for new and old fans alike. For too long, 2D Zelda games have stuck to Link to the Past's foundations, as 3D games have stuck to Ocarina of Time's. I want to be challenged at bit more.

- Engaging and challenging combat. I see Twilight Princess as squandered potential on this front. Link gained a large repertoire of cool moves over the course of the game…and yet none of them were ever necessary.

- I couldn't care less about the overarching timelime; just give me a simple narrative with a few twists and I'm fine. What I'm more concerned with is…

- Atmosphere. Majora's Mask got this right. You FELT like you were in a living, breathing world, and you felt immensely involved in not only your character's life, but the life of those around you. I want this sort of feeling again.

One other idea that just came to mind was, in the poster with the girl as the sword, what if you had to use the wii vitality sensor to stay calm so she can perform better? Any subtle change in the way you feel would reflex your swords performance.

If you tie both ideas together, the more your sword levels up, the more it relies on the “heart” of the player. leveling up could be a double-edged sword, and thus optional…for the most part.

In any case, the question was “what do you want to see in zelda wii?” my idea was the wii/ds functionality that was almost none existent on this console (maybe next time, right nintendo?) OR! they could just use four wiimotes sideways for a very clean setup.

Also, try to make some new items that we haven´t seen already. Master Sword and Mirror Shield are ok items, but why keep getting hookshoots or as in Twilight Princess, double hookshoots? Man that must have cost a lot of time comming up with?

Also, please do not make us go trough the same area twice in a row just so that the first time can be spent collecting a must have item to progress the story as you did in TP. It made me so irritated that this along with all the backtracking made me never finish the game. I got to bored backtracking.

Otherwise, bring back the feeling of A Link to the past. I haven´t experienced that feeling in either Ocarina of time or Twilight Princess. Don´t know why though.

Having a lot of characters and land to actually interact with would be awesome. And more quests/sideplots. Not entirely necessary, not all of them anyway, but just more to do.

And honestly, I just want to see Termina again.
But that's probably never going to happen.
Going back and forth between Termina and Hyrule would be nice.
