GenGAME writes: "One of the enduring issues fans have brought to light with The Wind Waker HD has been its intense use of bloom lighting. Even I can agree that the lighting seems a bit too dialed up – and I’m actually a huge fan of the new artwork, and its use of more “realistic” effects.
"However, the latest batch of screenshots released via the game’s official site seem to reveal a somewhat dimmer palette."
20 years later, The Wind Waker’s Ganondorf is still The Legend of Zelda’s best villain.
Nintendo is a weird company. It has the most illustrious legacy of any single company in the medium and seldom chooses to take advantage of that fact. Countless classics are confined to their original platforms or only available through outdated retail models or a cheeky bit of emulation.
This holiday would've been great and it would've calmed my hunger for tears of the kingdom. It supposedly exists but why has it taken this long I wonder. Here's hoping it still releases before totk, maybe a trailer at the game awards and a shadow drop.
Wii U was such a great to play every 3D Zelda game and various 2D ones as well
It'd be nice if Switch caught up to that wealth of legacy content
Booted up WW HD through emulation on Deck. Forgot how much I like that game, it's so charming with how expressive Link is. Ninty has taken too long.
Nintendo wants the focus on tears of the kingdom. Though with these year Zelda old rumors I question if the collection ever existed for the Switch. Much like the Prime Trilogy that evolved into a remake or remaster of just Prime 1 in recent months.
Nintendo will be shutting down the eShop for the 3DS and Wii U completely in 2023. Makes sure to check out these games before they do.
If they're not important enough to be held on their own official storefront then they're not important enough to give your money to Nintendo.
Buy these, physically, used or simply emulate them.
This article comes off as nothing more than advertising games that Nintendo, themselves, don't care to offer you... buy now!
Wait hang on where all the outrage? I swear when Sony tried to do this with PS3 last year. There was outrage from all corners of the gaming universe.
Why does no one care Nintendo is doing it?
It's lame that it is shutting down. Now I feel rushed buying all the rpgs I missed out on the system.
You guys know that even archive.org has 3DS roms, and all other console roms. I'm downloading 846GB of 3DS roms and will add the best games to my soon to be soft modded New 3DS 😁. Might as well throw in DS and other emulators in there to. Guys this would be the best way to play and enjoy the 3DS. Just need to buy a bigger micro SD card and format it to FAT32, which you can if it's even 256GB or larger there are ways.
I have been hearing rumors lately about this game running at only 30fps. Some have speculated that if they removed or toned down the bloom lighting effects then they may be able to achieve 60fps.
This game will be beautiful either way HOWEVER if Nintendo is unable to achieve 1080p 60fps with such a low detail low poly two generation old remake it's safe to assume that the Wii U is in fact basically equivalent to three GameCubes duct taped together and that's strait up technically pathetic in this day and age...
Do not disappoint me Nintendo you claimed that your new console is capable of 1080p 60fps and if you are unable to prove that with this graphically simplistic game then you lied to and disrespected everyone who bought your system :[ IMO
Nintendo consoles are the only consoles on the planet that get bashed for using bloom lighting.
Its viewed as a beautiful, good thing whenever its done on the on a Sony or Microsoft console.
More bloom. I thought this game was supposed to get overhauled graphics, not just the old game running just in HD. That already exists, it's called the Dolphin emulator.
