Last week, we informed you about a fan-made Zelda game that was based on the prototype version of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Zelda: Breath of the NES. Well, as you may have guessed, Nintendo issued a C&D letter.
The good news here is that its creator is willing to continue development. As such, Winter Drake will delete any references to the Zelda titles, and will use different assets.
By doing this, Winter Drake will be able to bypass this C&D letter (which is basically what most creators should do the moment they receive such takedown notices).
What this basically means is that this 2D top-down RPG project will see the light of day. It may take a while as Winter Drake will have to create new assets for it, however it will be released!

works everytime
Finally someone with a working brain.
If they did, they would not have announced this before it was done to begin with… What they’re doing now is just a simple workaround most people seemingly can’t bother to take.
Publicity and support. You need to let people know you are doing it, and get help. Or get appreciation so you can continue to be motivated.
It’s a double-edged sword. Look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=hqwP6uuYOWo&feature=emb_title&ab_channel=WoolieVersus
It’s sadly the nature of things. You have to find help privately, through DMs or the like. Or you got a C&D to look foward to 🙁
I’m not reading that he actually received a C&D letter. I’m reading that he’s getting ahead.
CellD.
They should jut call it Selda and make it a Zelda Parody
You think Nintendo will ever grow up and learn to embrace it’s community? Hell look at Dolphin, you’d think they’d see this massive outpouring of effort to put Nintendo games on PC and go hey let’s meet our fans in the middle and sell games there too or something. good grief.
They should “anagram it” into Dazzle and watch Nintendo’s rear burn.
Should just add ‘Not’ to the title, job done 🙂
