Nintendo Breaks Out the Giant Snakes for New Skyward Sword Trailer

I didn't like Link in the opening minute but when he's got his green tunic on all looks well. Did he actually look different or am I just crazily associating green tunic with Link as he should be...
Anyway, looks kinda cool, graphics are like a mix of cel shading and the normal zelda look and the gameplay looks...well, like Zelda...really...
Might get it if it gets favourable reviews, I like the sound of it definitely.

SO glad they fixed the animation so that Link doesn't look quite as much like he's trying to hold his sword as far away from himself as possible. And like his arm is being possessed.
Different visual style and having Link and Zelda be from Skyloft instead of same old hyrule. But again, marginal changes.Scrumpmonkey said:
The trailer was cool and everything, and I like the premise of it, but just what the hell is wrong with Link's nose?
Skyward Sword is indeed the first game in the Zelda story timeline.
You can know that since it will explain the creation of the Master Sword.
The trailer is nice, but most of it was seen in the older trailers.

Not to spoil anything,
but the gameplay demos at E3 reveal that the giant monster that eats Zelda actually rescues her. Ghirahim (The white guy with the sword at the end) tried to kidnap her by knocking her off her bird with a tornado. The monster (referred to as "Servant of the Goddess") rescues her so she doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
Now THAT seems like an interesting concept. I assume Hyrule was still created by Din, Nayru and Farore, however? Cause that would kinda suck if they retconned that, as it was in OoT and the instruction book for ALttP.Logan Westbrook said:
Though I am slightly bemused that while they aren't in Hyrule, Link is carrying the Hylian Shield.
OI! We don't mention those. They never happened! NEVER, DO YOU HEAR ME!?!Monoochrom said:
Yeah, I'm pissed about that too. I wish they would include an option to play left-handed. More than likely, though, they're going to pull the ambidexterous defense.Overmind78 said:
Zelda sorely, so sorely requires it, too. I mean, it's copying off so many games as it is like...er...and...Scrumpmonkey said:
This game's gonna have MM-styled sidequests that tie into the plot, the setting's theme is a "school drama," Zelda and Link are childhood friends, there's no Master Sword (at the beginning,) the bad guy they showcase is Seymour-level creepy, your hub is a floating fucking island, the art style is soft-cel-shaded but not all the way super deformed, no Ganon to speak of (so far...)
Just what DO people want when they say "Zelda needs to innovate?"
Same reason he's a righty in Twilight Princess, the controller is right handed and it's supposed to use 1 to 1 motion this time around.Overmind78 said:
I'm getting a really strong TF2 vibe from this game as far as the aesthetics go. Also, I hope it's not another Ocarina of Time remake like Twilight Princess was.

I think some of them don't look at anything other than the core mechanics. Sometimes, it's easy to look at a long-running franchise and think they all look the same.
