Nintendo has a great variety of properties that are well-established and beloved among video game fans.
OnceThe Legend of Zeldamovie was announced, it really seemed like this could be a viable direction.
But now, the film’s latest announcement has caused some confusion.
If a film universe was going to be started, why wouldThe Legend of Zeldabe live-action?
Overall, this newest announcement puts a big hold on the concept of a Nintendo film universe.
Now, it seems more likely that the properties will stay quite separate from each other.
Overall, this is a shame for Nintendo fans.
However,The Legend of Zeldabeing live-action completely ruins this.
While animation and live-action can be mixed, it would be a bit strange.
This is especially true becauseZeldahas always been animated.
It seems that perhaps the desire for a live-actionZeldaoutweighed the desire for ashared Nintendo universe plan.
