    Well, I don't think they'll bring her back because her story is pretty much concluded, it's not that open ended.
    Also correct me if I'm wrong, but we've never seen a Zelda "sidekick" return.

    I really love her a lot, In my opinion, she's been the best partner so far.

    Yes, not the same sidekick but from the same species... Could this mean that another twili species to sidekick Link?

    Nah, everyone is locked away... Or maybe someone wasn't in the realm at the time!

    I doubt it, I believe that Midna is the only one that may be able to leave the Twilight Realm now because she is their leader, has powerful magic and I believe that she still has the fused shadows (I'm not sure on how much that will help her though, It probably wouldn't). So therefore could find a way to let herself leave or another being from Hyrule enter the Twilight Realm.

    I don't think it would work that seeing that Midna as we knew her for some much of the game was a small, imp like creature, It really fitted to have her following Link around, she was desperate and knew that Link was her only hope of returning her people back to normal and killing her usurper.

    She may however make return in cutscene's from future games on the Child Timeline, Nintendo though could easily twist her back into a future game by allowing Link to visit her constantly throughout the story for help (or whatever you can think of that would mean Link would have to find her).

    In my opinion Nintendo have left it so she has permantly left the series as a main character, meaning that she has also left on a high note with fans.

    But what if, there was one twili who was never in the realm... Who no one has heard since... Now he/she is trying to find his/her way home and bumps into link...

    Okay it's not possible but think about it...

    Personally I thought Midna was a great character and I'd love to see her come back if it were possible. She was a heck of a lot more developed as a character, and frankly, I was glad to see that Zelda wasn't the main focus as she is in almost every single Zelda game.

    Now I know some will say "But the game's name is Legend of Zelda, not Legend of Midna" Well here's a news flash, personally that title should have always been Legend of LINK since he's the friggin legendary hero in the first place. How did Zelda's name get tacked on instead? I don't know... she has a good publicist and lots of money I guess.

    Another note to make... I already read somewhere here that some were upset that Zelda wasn't the main focus... but they forget that this particular installment is called the Twilight Princess... something that Zelda could obviously NOT be considering where she resides and her nature as a "sage" (maybe not officially one of the 6 sages, but she certainly can be considered one) of light. So It was perfect that it was Midna, and not Zelda who was the Twilight Princess.

    But I digress... back to the main point, I think that it would be great if Midna came back again. While we're at it, it would be nice also if Ganon would somehow be changed. Yes, I know, Ganon is the ultimate baddie for Link. He's like what the Joker is to Batman. But that being said, does Batman ALWAYS go after Joker in EVERY movie? No of course not! We'd get sick of the Batman movies if that's all we ever got to see. I think some of us would eventually tire of seeing Ganon in every game. Which is one of the reasons I liked Majora's mask so much. Ganon was instead replaced by a playful and devilish spirit contained in a mask and posessing whoever so wore the mask.

    Dudessss she's already been replaced by masterswordgirl in Zelda wii and Zelda in Spirittracks.

    She's not lasting, just like any other sidekick Link ever had.

    I hated her in Twilight Princess, she's the one who ruined the game.
    (Come on a playable Princess Zelda in TP? DIRECT SEQUEL OF OOT?!!)
    They dropped that all because of your precious little Midna.

    You say those things as if somehow I'm supposed to feel like I missed out? Please! A playable princess Zelda? Well I can see my wife being interested in that, but to be completely honest, Zelda never struck me as a strong character, even when she was in hiding as Sheik. I'm sorry, but I am very glad to see that nintendo is trying to add some variety to the Zelda franchise and not have EVERY single game be about her. Really, even seeing Ganon in just about every single game can be annoying too. (Hence, I imagine that's why they added Vaati and Zant as other threatening baddies, without taking ganon off the spot light)

    Not to mention, Midna, even if she did just play the role of Link's "navi" type companion, she still had a heck of a lot more character than Zelda did.

    I'm sorry, but I don't feel like I missed much. I'm glad nintendo went this route and put so much emphasis on such a great story, and even expanding the player's knowledge of Hyrule, its folklore and its denizens.
