Nintendo deserved this. They were fine about movie and TV licences being turned into terrible games and sold on their platforms, putting their 'seal of quality' on bad products. This wasn't the same as their first ventures into Hollywood, TV and international merchandising either. They knew how the games industry treated licensed properties and what they were signing into.
Games were portrayed the same way by film, mostly. Unsure if that's turnabout, though. Everyone knows about how campy the original Mortal Kombat movie had been, and how rocky the production of 1993's "Super Mario Bros." was, but not too many know of how weird the Double Dragon film turned out to be.
@@Code7Unltd My take is that Hollywood was finding its feet with turning game content into movies. These were early, experimental times with weird results. But Nintendo knew exactly how third party developers treated licenced properties and allowed Mario and Zelda to become that on the CD-i.
I am predicting the future The following information is how Zelda development will cease forever from Nintendo and why any idiot can ruin a Zeldas chance of being groundbreaking....clearly its a billion dollar flaw nintendo already turned loose as a monster Ready for it..... ZeldaMaker Now you know, thank you thank you Whistblower over and out Id say for intro game devs they pulled off a decent first time game

@@Nokia3310doHas Hollywood ever found its feet when it comes to adapting video games into movies tho?
@@CB-ke7eq Good question. It depends what your expectations are but they are generally much than they were in the early days.
I remember in good guys (electronic store) they made the zelda game a highlight for the cdi.

Zelda 2 says “call me the black sheep again”.
Poor Randy, he never stood a chance.
They should have just done dragons lair with Zelda layovers.
Honestly I’m impressed at the resourcefulness of the dev team using things like painted yard sticks.
never played them, only heard about them many years later on AVGN.
my body and soul are ready for this video
I suppose the Nintendo Zelda CD I was deserved by Nintendo at the time
The Zelda CD-I games sucks.
And Echoes of Wisdom claims it's the first time you can play as Zelda herself. Pfft. 😂
Wait Sony and Philips made the cdi?
Sony-top end electronic component systems
Philips-light bulbs
