Great article.
It is so true. If The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess had a baby, it would come out looking something like Skyward Sword. I see it as a "best of both worlds" approach.
Nice.
I loved Twilight Princess. The graphics are visually stunning, the dungeons are some of the best in the Zelda series, and the final boss battle sequence alone earns it at least a 9 out of 10. Zelda and Link fighting Ganondorf on horseback... EPIC!!!
Although Twilight Princess is not my favorite Zelda title (currently ranked 5th in my top 5), I really enjoyed the ride.
Nice preview.
Those Deku Baba's look brutal.
Nintendo addressed this a long time ago when Twiight Princess was released on the Nintendo Wii. On the Gamecube version of Twilight Princess, Link was left-handed. However, on the Wii version Link was made right-handed.
Nintendo said that the change was merely due to the fact most people are right-handed. With newly implemented motion controls, this change was thought to be "more comfortable" for players.
Good eye though.
Yea, me too. Perfect Dark (N64) alone brings back so many precious memories.
Although I think that Rare misses Nintendo even more than we miss them. When is the last time that they had a hit game?
Nice find.
I would hate to be the one to have cough up all those Euros to Nintendo. I won't defend privacy, but, as a gamer in today's economy i definitely understand.
Reminds me of my last visit to Gamestop. The girl at the counter trying to get me to fork over another $5 (might have been $10) on my Skyward Sword pre-order, for the Zelda 25th anniversary orchestra CD. I decided to be honest with her, why pay for the soundtrack when i can no doubt fin...
Well said.
I know, i know, i know... it's just a tech demo. And that's exactly the point!
The Legend of Zelda HD tech demo sold the console for me. Nintendo knows how to "stretch" and maximize the potential of their hardware. IMO Twilight Princess looked amazing on the Gamecube, so one can only imagine.
What impressed me the most, however, was the WiiU controller taking ALL game menus off of the screen. IMO that is why the ...
Best 3D Mario ever! ... easily!
Lame.
I have heard more whining this generation than all others combined. They act as if someone can just choose MetaKnight and button-mash their way through a tournament.
All of the Brawl characters may not be on equal footing, but it is still leaps and bounds better than Melee. Super Smash Bros. Melee was hardly an even playing field, and i don't remember any characters being banned.
"Man, it's people like you guys that make Nintendo think they can do whatever the hell they want without any consequences."
Ummm ok. I guess you didn't like the pictures... lol. Oh by the way, Nintendo never said that the WiiU would be unable to stream 2 controllers at once. That was a booth worker at E3. Nintendo did say, however, that they were still looking into that. You can interpret that however you want, it is new tech after all. Just spare me the &qu...
Now you're playing with power!
Looks awesome, and i can't wait. I am gonna start saving up after i buy Zelda Skyward Sword. Cheap Christmas gifts for everyone!
One of the first games that i downloaded for the Virtual Console.
Very well said.
It's my second favorite 2D Mario game too (second only to Super Mario World).
Awesome analysis. A great article, like this one, is always a nice treat when you're anticipating a game like Zelda.
Nice preview.
I am glad that G4 let you preview the game as opposed to Adam or Morgan. Their strategy of bashing Nintendo games with cliches, as opposed to actually playing the games drove me away from G4 long ago.
For years i have kept a deep dark secret... i don't have a favorite Zelda game!
Ocarina of Time or A Link to the Past? That has always been my eternal question. Some days Ocarina of Time wears the crown, and on others it is A Link to the Past.
Something tells me that November 20 will mark the end of my flip-flopping. Nice update!
Did i miss something? Smash Bros. showed up at this year's E3? Really?
The only "news" that Nintendo has said about the next Smash Bros. game is that it will be available for both the 3DS and WiiU. They haven't even started working on it yet.
Fake.
I am very surprised not to see Metroid Prime 3 on this list. I guess a lot of people missed out.
Good idea. The HUD takes up way too much space.
lmao.
That's just awful.
