GAMER LOUNGE 20XX (NO CASUALS!!)

Well yeah, but it's not official. Or on a console. And allows you to program stuff.
An official Zelda Maker would likely be nothing like it other than the fact that they both intend to replicate Zelda.

It may not be on a console, but it does have its own scripting language.  I feel like anything Nintendo would make wouldn't quite have the same amount of capabilities, but would just be notable for being official.  ZC also lets you have whatever kind of graphics you want, whereas an official one would only have a select couple of official styles to choose from.

That's true, but like...
I honestly don't understand what your point is here.

"I hope Nintendo makes a Zelda Maker"
"Zelda Classic exists"
"Yeah I know but it's not Nintendo and an official one would be different"
"It's not official, but it has all these features that wouldn't be in an official one."

I guess what I'm trying to ask is why you're bringing up ZC when the discussion is specifically on the possibility of an official product. There have been Mario (and Zelda) Makers for YEARS and we've all known about them, but there's never really been much reason to talk about them because they weren't official.

I'm not trying to knock you or anything, I just don't understand why the conversation is happening. We know about Zelda Classic.
