I am starting a new Zelda project for the TI-8X series and I am having trouble thinking of a name. If you see a name you like please vote or if you'd like to contribute to the name list, select other and post it down below, thank you.

the legend of zelda: the nachos of destiny

Personally I'd say it's too early to worry about a name. Work on a name after you've worked on storyline and have decided on gameplay elements. The name should reflect something about the game's theme. "The legend of Zelda" should be fine for a working title now, that way people have a general idea of what you're working on. =)

I completely agree, it's easier to name a game, then to make a game based off of a name.

The thing is, I have a sorta story for each one, so basically I am making the game based on everybody's opinion for a name.  All of them are different in some way or form and have there own back-story, so that's why I put up the names, instead of preceding with a nameless Zelda; but this doesn't mean I'm not working on it at all, currently I am working on sprite data, battle's, items, etc... but the major things like some monsters and bosses completely depend on the name picked.

DJ Omnimaga: like I said above, same applies, what the game is about, is basically a reflection of the name, with it's own little twists.

necro: hahaha... um... are you serious O.o

Art_of_camelot, Netham45: I pretty much disagree, because if your working on the game, and a name pops up that you like, but you would have to change things to reflect what the title is, then it's going to be a bad mess... Of course if you are making a nameless Zelda, with all kinds of stuff in it, you would come up with a name for it eventually, but I like to play things ahead of time.

kalan_vod: agreed, somewhat, most of the time dark is more fun =D

ALL: Would it be easier for all to make a decision if I posted the background story for each name? Of course with each new name presented, I'll make a background story based on it.  So if people add names, this story list will grow.

The thing is, the will all(hopefully) make it to a download section near you, but as my 1337 skills of TI improves, I'll move my main programming up to z80.  So basically, the first few will be in basic most likely, but as my ASM skills improve, they will slowly but surely go to either ASM progs, or flash apps

Oh woah, who switches in the middle of development? Unless you have basically nothing done, that is NOT an option. If I made it sound like that, sorry, but unless the project I am working on is a complete and under failure and absolutely needs ASM, I just will make ASM subroutines for it  . But yeah, no-one should EVER switch in the middle of development, that can be very bad and I don't mean, ah that's bad, I mean, WOAH holy... that's messed up, bad 

well the problem is that usually  BASIC programmers who does have good BASIC knowledge and are making an insane game in BASIC, and when they switch they expect to be able to do the same as easily in ASM, but they all give up when they realise it's too hard for the yet

I'm working on some basic sprites right now, when the poll is over, I'll start working on the special sprites such as specific bosses, enemies, and items, but for now it's just enemies, items, and tiles that will be seen throughout unless I decide to make better ones.

DJ Omnimaga: agreed, people who think that they can easily switch are sadly mistaken, and if they are going to, then they also need to know that ASM is a much more advanced language than the built in TI-BASIC.  Of course after they get a good grasp, they can rebuild a ASM version working along-side or after the TI-BASIC one is done.
