The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD Preview | GameDynamo

GameDynamo - "This fall, the cel-shaded seas will call once more. Nintendo will enter a region of gaming that it has never before set foot in: the HD remake. The game that will lead the Big N into this new world is The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD. Thanks to the high-definition capabilities of the Wii U, fans old and new will be able to experience the tale of the cat-eyed Link and pirate princess Tetra like never before."

the gamecube version its more appealing to me i don't like the HD shaders .... i have the impression that there is no cell shading at all like the original version

jsslifelike4047d ago (Edited 4047d ago )

You could very well be right. I dunno- that doesn't bother me as much as the supposed fact that Nintendo is leaving out all of the content that was cut from the original. THAT would have made it a must-buy(as writer stated).

The point about the Triforce fetch-quest near the end really doesn't irk me that much as I usually spend the latter Zelda games' playtime cleaning up Heart Pieces, Bottles, etc. anyway.

I just don't know if HD is enough for me to play for 5th or 6th time. ;)

i like the possibility of using the gamepad as for the tingle tuner support. I have the GC game and the GBA link cable and remamber playing with the two connected.

It was interesting to say the least. Man i hope this remake lends some good ideas to remaking other cube games that supported gba connection. Especially Pac Man vs.

I can see using the gamepad as the control for pac man and seeing the entire grid while others use wiimotes to control the ghosts in a blacked out version of the grid on tv. That was a fun game to play with friends on the cube back in the day.

zalanis4046d ago

lol man, 5th or 6th time. really?? whats one more then?? might as well

Dj7FairyTail4047d ago

it kinda have Bioshock Infinite graphic

abzdine4047d ago

still not argument enough to buy a Wii U. i want a new Zelda adventure, not a remake. And on top of that Wind Waker is the weakest zelda episode imo

smoothdude4046d ago

So I boycotted this game long ago due to what they did with the graphics. I just started playing this with an emulator and I now really regret not playing it. It may not be the best Zelda, but it is a gem :)

Wii Dolphin Emulator = HD Graphics!!

AJBACK2FRAG4046d ago

I think WW was an amazing gorgeous fun experience for the GCN. I really am looking forward to this re release. Now hurry the heck up with Majora's Mask hd please?! My favorite game. I've been conjecturing the next new Zelda game will be a mmorpg! Just like Retro studios working on a new Eternal Darkness. So far off. Still better than Mikey P. though lol!

AWBrawler4045d ago (Edited 4045d ago )

Your opinion is not fact. Many people love WindWaker. Its one of the highest selling Zeldas. Ironic sense it was on the Gamecube. Its also my favorite Zelda EVER

josephayal4047d ago

I may need to see this remake in action before I get 100% behind it, but TBH looks fantastic

Jadedz4047d ago

Though I've never managed to complete it. Gonna buy the Wii U version for off-tv play, and the added extras.

robinisme4047d ago

It's probably the last game that needed a HD bump up, played the GC version recently and it still looks fantastic!
...that being said, I'm looking forward to it and hoping they finish off those incomplete islands.
best Zelda in the series imo

diepdiep4047d ago

It would be very unlikely, but I hope Nintendo will add the temples that were cut from the original.

I'd put Street Fighter 2 over 3. 2 and all its different versions dominated the arcade scene back in the day in a way that 3 never did.

Abear21188d ago

Agreed, Same with Metal Gear Solid imo. Came for Bioshock and was not disappointed. Would easily put Burger Time or Space Taxi over tempest. Also, OG Sim City and Oregon Trail. Mario 64 as well. Just too many!

Abear21188d ago

Never played it I gotta get on this one

Double_O_Revan188d ago

Me too. I didn't have a GC until way later and never played it. I've been waiting on Nintendo to release the HD edition on the Switch for forever, but they just won't!

FinalFantasyFanatic188d ago

I never bought a Gamecube, I've always had an urge to play this game, maybe it'll get a remaster in the future.

LoveSpuds188d ago

I played it on WiiU for the first time and it remains my fave Zelda game to date. So much character and a real sense of exploration without the open world bloat.

Petebloodyonion188d ago

Ms Pacman?
Robotron?
SSF2 Turbo over 3 simply by the 10000000000's ports of the game we're still having
Castlevania SOTN?
Zelda Link to the Past over Wind Waker
Super Mario Bros 3?
Chrono Trigger?
Resident evil4?
COD MW2 (the original)?
Uncharted 2
Metal Gear Solid?

Here's my reasoning for all of them versus the list proposed in the article.
They are still quite enjoyable from start to finish on their original platform, unlike some Wind Waker or Okami that are fun when you play the remastered version (unless you call: forced to watch a 20-minute cutscene or have to blow for wind chance constantly fun).
Some of them are the pinnacle of what the console could do (MGS, Chrono, MGS)
Lots of them are still considered the go-to-go game for their genre.

Shane Kim188d ago

Said it before but Heart of Darkness is truly a timeless gem.
