Nintendo RPG's

Zelda's not an RPG??? Lmao? Yes, it's action/adventure, but i'd definitely classify it in RPG. You take on the roll of Link, you progress and get more powerful, getting new weapons, etc.

Zelda's not an RPG in the sense that you aren't gaining experience, leveling up, and increasing your character attributes statistically. Sure you can say you're "playing a role," but you also do that in FPS, platformers, adventurers, etc. You get more weapons and moves, but that's still true in other genres. If you have to cross genres, I would liken it closer to a platformer than a RPG.
 
Dragon Quest: the Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors, Battalion Wars 2, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers, Fire Emblem: The Goddess of Dawn and other rpgs are coming to the Wii
