Is it sad that actually seeing a Wind Waker HD case with gold foil cover completely changes my opinion? I thought the "yellow" background looked less desirable in the original packshot art, but seeing an actual box, it looks like it'll go nicely with the gold foil Skyward Sword art.

Zelda cycle applies to box art too confirmed?

Wait for Iwata Asks: The Wind Waker HD Box Art before you go calling that "confirmed." ;D

For any New Yorkers (or people around there) who still want the limited edition, Nintendo World Store just tweeted this:

omg i need it

thank christ I got it pre-ordered in time. the window in Canada was like 2 hours!

 

[Timeaisis]

The ganondorf statue looks great! I'm glad it turned out well. Arghh...but I have to wait 2 more weeks.

That is so haaaaawt, digg'n dat foil yo.

 

[zroid]

Also it kinda looks like there are pivots at the shoulders and wrists... but it's hard to tell

 

[Lexxism]

Wow. Looks like the figure gives me a reason that I made a good decision pre-ordering this.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

So can we expect the eShop download to be live at 9:00 PM, PDT, tomorrow night?

 

[Tunic]

That figure looks so awesome! So beautiful!

 

[ElectricKaibutsu]

That's crazy talk. TP is probably the best of the 3D Zelda games or at least neck and neck with OoT. Nintendo needs to stay on the path they set with TP. Such a grand and beautiful game. I'm afraid we'll get nothing like it from them anymore.

It's crazy how much I disagree with you. TP is my least favorite 3D Zelda. It's been awhile since I've played it but looking back it has the worst art design of them all. I remember the dungeons and boss fights being good though.

Pretty sure that's correct. I remember ACNL releasing on the eShop midnight EST. So happy I don't have classes on Friday so I can download WWHD at midnight!

Probably won't start doing that 'til I have the Pictobox.

 

[oatmeal]

TOTALLY forgot they did 9PM PDT releases.

YESSSS!!!! Totes going to get through at least Forsaken Fortress tomorrow

I forgot about his too! Thursday just got even better for me now. Forsaken Fortress is my goal too.

 

[Kjellson]

I hope someone makes a screenshot thread like Pikmin 3. I can't wait to see all the selfies.

 

[BY2K]

The extra 2 weeks of wait for the Limited Edition release is going to be torture.

 

[MegalonJJ]

Here is some footage I had to capture. Will have more up soon:

Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD - The Great Valoo HD

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD - Dragon Roost Island HD

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD - Title Screen HD

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD - Combat Footage HD

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD - Outset Island Forest Footage HD

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD - First-person Gameplay Footage HD

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD - Outset Island

The remastered Outset Island music sounds quite improved over the original. Particularly the violin that starts at 0.44 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsQq5MYa9SQ

Not sure if it's a live violin over midi tracks (ala SMG2 Honey Hive re-jig), or simply a much higher quality sample.

Anyone buying the system bundle and plans on throwing away the digital code cardboard thing?

If so, let me know.

Want to watch this so bad... but I want to see the game for the first time on my own... just a little bit more. Arghhh these two weeks will be rough.

 

[Waylon Drums]

Gaf folks *really* hold onto old cliches. Good lawd...

 

[Exile20]

I want to touch that figurine so bad. I hope it is excellent quality.

Why yes, yes it is. I really should avoid this thread as to not torture myself, but I probably won't.

For any New Yorkers (or people around there) who still want the limited edition, Nintendo World Store just tweeted this:

DAMN IT! I want it so bad but I was unable to preorder it.

 

[Topper]

Is the Wii U/Zelda bundle going to be hard to find at stores if you didnt preorder?

 

[HeySeuss]

Is the Wii U/Zelda bundle going to be hard to find at stores if you didnt preorder?

Doubt it. Unless the rumored NSMBU bundle is real then this will be their leading Xmas bundle. I wouldn't worry.

Shame I gotta get up early tomorrow to get my Wii U and Madcatz Unveiled.
Oh well, might catch the tail end after Korra.

 

[Mithos]

DAMN IT! I want it so bad but I was unable to preorder it.

I pre-ordered day 1 in Sweden when it showed up. Hopefully I wasn't to late ;p

 

[Relix]

Alright, so... 50 in my wallet. Nintendo doesn't do preloads right? If I leave the game downloading while I go to work tomorrow I can turn my WiiU off and it'll keep dling right?

 

[BY2K]

Gaf folks *really* hold onto old cliches. Good lawd...

Like?

 

[Shin Johnpv]

I wish the LE was out tomorrow. Next 2 weeks will go by slowwww.
