I don't think Zelda would work at all as a movie, especially as a live action movie. Same for Metroid.

Ooo we have to agree to disagree there friend I think certain Zelda has great story that would work, ocarina , wind waker , twilight Princess and skyward sword.

I agree they have great stories but I think those stories would suffer a lot by sacrificing the interactivity of the games. Link is a silent protagonist too, so it would make it much harder for the narrative to center around him.

I think it’s easy look at the manga you would just have to find the right fit and make link likeable as for the interactivity you can have a fun adventure feel like Star Wars or Indy Jones imo. Link battling monsters etc I think it’s perfect for adaption!

Metroid was literally influenced by Alien. Pretty sure a Metroid movie would be the lowest hanging fruit for Nintendo Studios.

If that's the case, then people would criticize it for copying Alien too much
