It's probably been done here before, and I might even be on the wrong forum, but nonetheless, a Zelda Trilogy anyone?

If so, CGI or actors?

If actors, then who? (please don't throw orlando bloom/leo di caprio etc and katie holmes/keira knightley etc into casting for Link and Zelda)

I'm just interested to see how many people think what. Was there not a poll on Nintendo's website a few years back trying to assess the demand for a Zelda movie?

Erm no...

The incredibles, Shrek, Toy Story, Finding Nemo etc... etc...

Nintendo are actually putting a lot into this investment. Some may appear outside of Japan (perhaps there more successful franchises) but some are gonna be based on Japanese poetry (according to old Yamauchi) so maybe not all of it.

Hm. Sounds quite promising.

What's the likelihood of these films getting released outside of Japan though?

Movies as in films, and Nintendo are setting up there own company for it.

Apparently some Nintendo movies regarding Nintendo characters may be made. But Nintendo are hoping to make totally new movie franchises and not rely on their current crop of characters.

Yeah, but what for? Movies of games?

Are Nintendo making them themselves or second-party companies?
