Otherwise surely Nintendo would want such an impressive game in their launch line-up for the Revolution? If the console is coming out next year, I find it hard to believe Nintendo would jump another even more impressive Zelda game on us in time for launch.
(Having said that, I do accept that Nintendo haven't ever launched a console with a Zelda game)
What do you think?

The problem with PC's is the fact that I don't have a good one.
Simple.

No that's MMORPG's.

I know this is directed at N64 but I'll have my say:
Metroid is Goldeneye, more people want a game like that by Nintendo than Metroid Prime, apparently the multiplayer isn't anythingto write home about in Echoes either. Strong multiplayer that demands replay is what's needed.

Not if Nintendo get off their ass and do what they do in other genres their console has had a lack of representation in: make the damn thing themselves.

Where is the killer exlusive FPS for the Cube full stop?
2) GC's already had another Goldeneye - and look what a terrible mess that was. I know, let's get those who made the first one make another one! Oh, wait, that's never going to happen. Perfect Dark then! Oh, no, wait ...
The closest you'll come is TS2. End.
I'd rather play No Mercy.
Edit: Just got Wind Waker, I couldn't stay away from Zelda. Even if WW's 10% of the game OOT was I'll enjoy it a hell of a lot.
> To everyone but Nintendo it would seem.
I agree, I was thinking that. Maybe N64 should be posting to Ninty rather than on here :P Reggie's preaching that Nintendo are learning though. Oh, and you said about a 4 player that's high quality and fun? Smash Bros! It sold massively. Cube needed more titles like that earlier on.
Anyways, to your Zelda sandbox question. I love being able to free-roam on games and Zelda's always appealed because of this and the tons of side-quests and extra bits and bobs to collect. All the tasks on Windfall Island in Wind Waker were brilliant. There should have been more towns like that.
Zelda Cubed needs several large town areas, tons of quests.. I want some game involving you and your horse (nothing kinky, a race against other townspeople or something). And Zoras. Lots of Zoras. But still keep the Rito winged people from Dragon Roost Island. They were cool.
My close mate had one and i went round his place to play it every night.
He had super mario 64
Goldeneye
carmegedon
OoT.Obviously.
Carmegedon was awful and painful.Goldeneye was a classic and so was OoT.
