New Zelda Wind Waker HD videos

Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD [OT] Sploosh! Sploosh! KABLOOOM!!!

Btw, I don't mind the bloom. In fact, I think it adds depth and atmosphere to a "remake" that already looks absolutely gorgeous. I can't believe I am this hyped fo a game I bought day one 10 years ago.
 
Sailing at sunset. God damn this game looks gorgeous

Is too bad there's still fade in / pop up geometry at a distance. Really like the lighting flashes from the strom projecting shadows for the characters, i can't quite remember if it was in the original.

Also it seems the reduced HUD stll displays the magic meter always. That's one ugly bar Nintendo, you should auto hide it. Is not like magic management is that important in the game.
I know this is slightly OT, but with this game being downloadable early I think I should ask : does digital on WiiU help load times / performance.
It... helps to some extent. But since:

1) the internal storage inside the Wii U is basic nand memory is not that fast
2) If you use an external drive, the interface been with USB 2.0 is still slow and can't maximize that maximun throughput of even a decent mechanical drive. Yet it is a slight improvement over the Wii U optical drive.

Wow.. even in twilight, bloom is being used full force..
That's a shame. Great screenshot, aside.
 
it's a shame that of all the 3d zelda to remake,they choose the worst one...

not that I agree with this worst one bs but don't you think this art style might have been quicker to upgrade to HD than the others?

you can easily make an up port of say Twilight Princess but as a fan I would demand a hell of a lot of sharp 1080p textures not something like Monster Hunter HD on Wii U

that should take a few years of work or I would hate on it day 1

i was thinking about something like a majora's mask HD more than TP

but i agree,this remake was probbaly the easiest and cheaper to do.

I would want a total remake of MM because I never really got to play it

I think it has more to do with the numbers of polygons more than anything else going from really low poly-geometry stuff here.

that cartoon look hides that stuff really well but Major's Mask in HD would need the same level of work I was talking about for TP I think TP is less of a jump as well.

hopeful MM does not turn out to be a 3DS joint if they make it.

well will get Zelda burn out though. 2 Zelda's this year. one old one new.

maybe when the Wii U title comes 3DS gets another remake

Here's a little comparison image I made from a 1080p shot of the HD version and a Dolphin shot of the same area. Here it's very, very obvious that the new one attempts to mimic claymation, while the old one goes for a more toon style. It's different in a good way, both look amazing.

Wind Waker HD has two modes of lighting. The global world lighting is still using toon-shading, but anytime there is a local light source, it overrides the global lighting and becomes claymation like. If you check out the videos where Link picks up torches, you'll see that as he gets closer to the torch, the art style starts to take on a claymation look. This is also why the moblins don't have the circle light and use a real light source instead, because their lantern is a local light source.

In this shot, the sword is a local light source, which gives Link the claymation look
 
Hey guys, I've been wondering. Is this game 1080p or 720p at 60fps?

BTW... some people may hate the game itself (I did) but give it a second chance with open mind to fun. It is a really good Zelda, and it's a unique one. Other may hate the new look, but to be honest, even with the overused bloom this game looks outstanding. That cabin/dawn screenshot is gorgeous!
 
I wish I could use that banned meme in this thread. :P

Who is doing the OT and when will it be made?

PapaJustify is doing it. Presumably a week before release like standard procedures.

Game is 1080p at 30fps.
 
All Zelda games are always locked to 30 fps right? Nintendo claims more is not needed.

Now that I think about it, it is true. TP ran at 30fps as SS also did. OoT ran like crap and MM also jeje but they're still gems.

60fps would require them to redo the animations probably.

Is just that for some weird reason I remembered that it ran at 60fps on Dolphin, and I thought that it would've been the same here, but as I said previously, didn't stop to think all Zelda games are 30fps games.
 
I'm going to buy the Wii U Wind Waker bundle, but I think I'm going to sell the code and wait for the physical version.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I'm kinda stuck between getting the bundle or the collectors edition (I know gamestop is sold out apparently but the game store in my country always has collectors editions in stock for some reason.) How much will you be selling the code for?

This was intentional right?
 
|OT| I coveted that bloom, I suppose.

not my idea, but people seem to have missed its posting a few pages back. THIS NEEDS TO BE THE OT TITLE

I don't mind this title, but I like the "|OT| Nintendo is Bloomed" better because of the fine sarcasm involved. It encompasses all the problems in one simple, effective, 3 words sentence.

Probably $45. Just enough to be a bit of a deal, and to also be close to what I'll have to pay for the physical version.

Haha, it wasn't intentional.
 
Let's not use a title about bloom. It's just so fuckin overplayed at this point. I don't like negative OT titles, even if they're jokes. Gets shit off on the wrong foot from day 1.
 
Can someone please put a Zelda cap on my Chibi Zoro? I don't have a PC at the moment so I can't do it myself. :(
Also, OT title should be something about boats. (I haven't played WW before but from what I've seen and heard about it sailing takes a big part in the game.)
 
Hmm are the framerate drops a youtube thing or does the game have those drops"? I would rather have 720 if it means stable framerate...

Overplayed and an out of date reference:

|OT| I'm on a Boat!

Even on Dolphin WW is locked at 30fps. Its one of the few games that cant achieve a higher FPS on Dolphin.
