Do You Think Nintendo Will Ever Make a M Rated Zelda Game?

[Ruby Link]

So far, the highest rating level for a Zelda game has been T. Do you think Nintendo would ever make an M rated LoZ game? If they did, would you buy it? Do you think they should?

 

[Seth]

They won't. Zelda is supposed to be a game that people of all ages can play. Or at least most, no way do they make a mature rated title and I am fine with that. If they did I would buy it of course, I just don't think they will.

 

[Zelway]

I can guarantee there will never be an M rated Zelda game.

I would not play it.
I don't even play any M rated games now, so I definitely wouldn't want to play an M rated Zelda game.

 

[IgosDuIkana]

I do not believe they ever will. It would be detriminal to the series and ruin the product appeal for a lot of "up and coming gamers" of the new generations. Plus, I think it would kill the magic of the series. Zelda's always been able to maintain that magical appeal to all audiences while keeping it under "M." It it went above, that appeal would be gone to almost all but the hardcore Zelda fans.

well, you can't really say they NEVER will... i mean look what they did with Wind Waker. the demo at E3 2000 showed realistic graphics, and then Nintendo surprised us all with Cartoon graphics... an M-rated game could happen. i get that the Zelda series is meant fro all ages, but honestly, the Zelda games are never the case. Zelda games aren't pick-up-and-play games like New Super Mario Bros. or Wii Party, you'd have to understand Zelda in order to pay the game and to actually get somewhere. an M-rated Zelda would really bring to the table new ideas that couldn't be implemented anywhere else...
but, it's still Zelda, so of course i'd but it... ^^

 

[Ghirahim]

I doubt it. Why would they? They would lose a big chunk of their buyers.

 

[SinkingBadges]

I won't rule the possibility out just like that. But it most likely won't happen as long as the Miyamoto is in charge.

He has a strong belief that entertainment must appeal to ALL age groups.

 

[unknown_user]

They could but if they were I would not want them to make it a part of the timeline. as for buying it maybe, maybe not.

 

[AlaskaAce1996]

No because nintendo wouldn't change a series already headed for the E rated direction to be more mature.

 

[Vault Boy]

I'd bet that it would never happen. If it did get an M rating it would probably be for violence and not even be that bad.

 

[Jedi Link]

a large chunk of zelda fans are kids it would be stupid to do that for business. an m rated zelda game would be interesting though

 

[JuicieJ]

For a Zelda game to be rated M, there would have to be a huge excess of blood, which isn't Zelda. Zelda uses minimal amounts of animated blood. So I don't see one ever coming. I'd still get it, but I can say with certainty it won't happen.

 

[Cel-Shaded Deku]

If it ever gets to the point where the smallest ammount of violence or blood in a game automatically gives it an M rating then yes.

 

[Xanthus]

Only through a drop in the requirements for higher ratings.

You can forget that.
The thing about Nintendo is basicly family and all ages gaming. Now if the genre was for the X-Box or PS3..then they most likely would.
Than again...why go that far? The series has been just fine without a silly ''M'' rating and the things that go along with it.
They seem to be cracking down on the rating laws all over the country, if they banned the sale, or did whatever with ''M'' rated games and
crafted a Zelda title with that rating...it could stand to be banned or go through the whole over protective parent hooplah.
Who wants that?
With the use of creepy elements and vast storyline, it is pointless to slap anything in it to make it M rated.
All people of all ages should be able to enjoy the series freely without needing a photo ID or parents permission to buy and play it.
