Talk:The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

I need some help with a citation. I'm trying to quote Eiji Aonuma in Vol. 270 (p. 20) of Nintendo Power. It's broken right now. Linebeck IV 23:56, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem broken to me. You did it just fine! 03:10, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Unfortunately, though, it doesn't credit Aonuma with the quote. HEY GUYS, OVER HERE! YOU KNOW THAT QUOTE ON THE CONTENT PAGE? EIJI AONUMA SAID IT! Now everyone will know. :P Linebeck IV 03:25, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Predecessor?
How do we know its predecessor is SS undefined? The new game hasn't even been revealed yet.  h fc 2 X  07:17, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
 * That's precisely why Skyward Sword is the predecessor. It's not speaking through an in-universe chronological perspective, but rather a real-world perspective. It will be the next new addition to the series (barring The Wind Waker HD, but that doesn't count, as it's a remake), so it's safe to say that Skyward Sword is the predecessor. Unless, of course, the new Wii U title comes out first, but the developers recently stated that they will require more time on that. 10:05, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Game announced, it IS The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 2
New top-down 2D Zelda with multi floored dungeons and set in the same world as A Link to the Past. Known as Kamigami no Triforce 2 in Japan, referred to simply as "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" on the Europe Nintendo Direct. Suggest we move the page to The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 2 until they settle on an inevitably different title for the final game. 15:21, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Don't forget to change the games template to reflect this. Linebeck IV 19:53, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be better to rename the page The Legend of Zelda: Kamigami no Triforce 2 since that was the name stated in the Japanese Nintendo Direct? There's no name for the American version yet, so ALTTP2 isn't all that accurate, right? - Erebus 00:27, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Most likely it will be changed, like Luigi's Mansion 2 later became Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. (Though I understand that only happened in the US.) Change it if you want to but be prepared to change it again when the game comes out. Mahboi 02:06, 18 April 2013 (UTC)


 * While not the actual name, it's listed as The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past on the UK Nintendo Direct, so, placing a 2 on the end isn't too crazy for the moment, especially as Kamigami no Triforce 2 basically means the same thing. However, it sounds nicer, and A Link to the Past 2 almost certainly WON'T be what it's called... but then I doubt it'll be called Kamigami no Triforce 2 in Japan either. I don't mind if we use the Kamigami no Triforce 2 name for the moment, whatever people think sounds nice, this name is only placeholder. 03:03, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
 * "especially as Kamigami no Triforce 2 basically means the same thing" <-- YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER. Requesting move to Kamigami no Triforce 2 simply because this phrase was uttered (and because yes, adding a 2 really is stretching things). Sorry for the rudeness.

 * That comment was not constructive in the least. Assuming good faith applies to talk pages as well, so please think twice before posting stuff like that. Acknowledging that it's rude doesn't excuse the fact. 11:26, 23 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Kamigami no Triforce (THE GAME) = A Link to the Past (THE GAME) in English. You know exactly what I meant. And I'm against moving it to that title simply because this title is already widely used and easy to search for and much more understandable to a western audience, which is what this wiki is for. I am one of the biggest proponents of Japanese information on this wiki, but in this instance there's simply no advantage to moving the page, as the game has NO official title in English OR Japanese (contrary to belief, it wasn't really used as part of the actual title in the Japanese Nintendo Direct, and certainly didn't appear as a logo, it was just described as Kamigami no Triforce 2). 14:10, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm baaaack~


 * No comment is going to be constructive when you completely ignore it.


 * Whether or not the two are "the same" is irrelevant. Further, all this "understandable" talk is nonsense, and always will be. This has nothing to do with Japanese diddly-squat, but with what's fact. We're supposed to deal in facts above all else; making up anything that's meant to be a fact is wrong, period. What's important: the game was properly announced and described as "Kamigami no Triforce 2". Until "The Legend of Zelda" becomes more than a tentative title, we should use what is the closest thing to a correct title.


 * This is such a basic principle that it makes me feel awful that I ever have to remind people of it. ZeldaDoritos 05:48, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
 * The name A Link to the Past 2, while perhaps not 100% official, has caught on throughout the Internet and is the most commonly used name for the game, even on major websites like IGN. That's why it warrants status as a tentative title. Linebeck IV 09:59, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Timeline confused?
Is this Link the same from A Link to the Past/Oracle series/Link's Awakening? I'm confused :/--Isamisa 15:32, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't think it is clear yet, whether he is the same Link or not. We'll have to wait for more information to come out :) Zeldafan1982 17:05, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
