I was never a really a big fan of Wind Waker. Why? Because when I was a kid, the sea sections SCARED THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF ME!
The scores for both were, and still are, amazing. I think replacing them with full orchestral tracks would actually hurt the experience. Plus I also believe WW already has a full orchestral soundtrack.Rossco64 said:Do not make the same mistake you made with OoT 3DS Nintendo! Redo the score! I'm talking proper orchestra tracks!
That looks absolutly beatiful. I usually tend to be mehish about rereleases of older games from nintendo, but considering how charming it looks and how fun the older WW was, I'll probably find myself picking this one up once it hits the shelves.SkarKrow said:

given the importance of the music to the whole experience of oot, changing such a thing sounds like a huge risk to me.KeyMaster45 said:The scores for both were, and still are, amazing.

I wasn't gonna bother if it was like the HD collections rampant on the PS3 and Xbox 360 where it really just outputs the same game upscaled, but just by looking at it, my god, the colours just pop and it looks so exquisite that I just want to throw money at it. The Wii U's graphics are very pretty so far from what I've seen, a good example being Pikmin 3, which is also absolutely beautiful. This being the start of it's life cycle I expect to to see some very nice stuff on it as it ages.SilverBullets000 said:That looks absolutly beatiful.

The only thing that worries me slightly is how they're supposedly rethinking the conventins of newer Zelda games, in that it's normally a single player game. While I wouldn't mind there being a multiplayer, it bugs me that they might base a whole game around the idea. I suppose that as long the single player is still playable, it's okay, but still...

I will state right here and now, THIS is huge incentive to pick one up. If there's news of say, Persona 5 ending up on the console as an exclusive or with extra features or something big like... I don't know, a 'true' successor to Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (I mean hell, I'll give Square a chance to redeem themselves, write off Ring of Fates to TCB as non-canon) that's basically an equivalent to Monster Hunter in being a small scale MMORPG.MikeWehner said:An HD remake is intriguing, and the promised bonus feature of being able to play the game using just the Wii U gamepad is likely enough to make Zelda diehards squeal with delight.
ok, consider those last words eaten, but none the less wind waker is only 10 years old and still looks great. i played it on gamecube last year, and it definitely holds up if you ask mej-e-f-f-e-r-s said:Actually, the Mona Lisa has been touched up several times.Carrots_macduff said:this is totally unnecessary if you ask me. wouldn't it be prudent to maintain the original look of one of the best looking gamecube games, especially considering how it stood out amonsgt all the other graphical masterpieces, like re4 and viewtiful joe?
its not like anyone feels the need to touch up the mona lisa every few years.
And this is a beautiful game being made even beautifuller by Nintendo. I don't exactly see why it's such a bad thing. Nintendo have said this is to keep fans tided over until the new game comes out, and I can't think of a better way to go about that. Admit it, a better looking Wind Waker is hardly something to complain about.
I have to disagree. I think it looks much better in Dolphin than in the new screenshots and video. The redone graphics lose a lot of the cartoony charm of the original, and they scaled up incredibly well to HD resolutions (other than some of the 2D/UI stuff) because of how clean and simple they were. Wind Waker is still one of the most effective uses of cel shading after all this time because of the artistic and design choices they made, and they reversed some important ones of those in this new stuff, removing what made it stand out.BiH-Kira said:I think that the new soft lightning looks fantastic. I've played the game when it was released on the GC and I've played it on my PC with Dolphin. This looks so much better than the emulated version. This really is a no contest.
