I was a little disapointed with not being able to do certain actions in TP that I thought would add challenge and variety to the game. In situations where link's arms aren't being used, he should be able to use his bow, such as when running or riding the spinner. I always thought that the boss to the destert region in TP would be sooooo much better if we had to shoot certain parts of him, then spin at him, then slash him when he goes down. They need to just flesh out the items so they have multiple purposes, and add crazy combinations such as iron boots + spinner = magnetic spinner, or being able to use one hook/claw shot with the sword or another one handed item like the megaton hammer. Puzzle complexity could be amaizing, like having to hook/claw shot to a point, stick to the wall with the iron boots, shoot a target to open a door with the bow, and then glide down to safety with a magic leaf or parachute item.

Aside from that, I want it to have dificulty settings because the puzzles are always fun and chalenging, but the combat has been stale for many games now.

Just go play fable or any of the other games out there that let you be an evil character. Link is who he is, a boy/man who represents goodness in a world consumed by darkness. Perish the thought that Link wont be able to slap a kokiri chick if she doesn't hand over the rupees...

Your point about a more mature Zelda is valid, but it can't be Link. Nintendo always makes a darker half of their good (somewhat childish), characters i.e. Wario to Mario. We already know Link's darker half from Majora's Mask, Fierce Deity. They should just make a game with him as the protagonist. Or... If you really want to hold on to your idea of good and bad in the same game, they could have a game where Link has the Fierce Deity Mask (or Fierce Deity's spirit in him) and can't control his other half, adding aspects of remorse on Link's part for the actions of his counterpart. That actually sounds kinda cool:P... But no senseless violence; it has no place in Zelda games.

All I really want in the next one is difficulty settings. I get sick and tired of using three heart runs as a way to challenge myself in every Zelda game.

Okay. Problem solved.

Pokémon Snap also needs more cowbell.

Marshmallow world. Near the poles the marshmallows are frozen and hard, in between the poles and the equator is soft and bouncy, around the equator is melty and sort of like quicksand. But with realtime weather and climate effects, different marshmallow "climate changes" would take place as you go through it, causing you to be unsure as to which parts will be firm, which parts will be bouncy, and which parts will be quicksandy.ZebethOrZebes
