Really enjoying it so far. Couldn't get my screens uploaded to imgur :$ And I don't want to take too many screenshots because I'll never stop and I'll have to pause the game like a million times and I don't want to detract from my first wind waker experience!
Plus you guys take better Screenshots

I have only played OoT before this and I'm still having a blast. There maybe are some characters from previous games(?) I cant recall etc.
Not at all, you may miss some references from Ocarina of Times but you are in for a treat.

Just got a 50" plasma and WiiU Zelda-bundle. Man, this game is fucking awesome!! Never got to play it back in the days. Thank you Nintendo.
I'm currently in the second dungeon. Forest Haven? I seem to always forget the names of the places I visit in the game
are you from germany and have you bought it at media markt (just asking because there was a really good deal for the wiiu bundle and for HDTVs this week)
Nope. Sweden!
Sounds good think I'm going to go out and get it.
I have OoT on 3ds haven't got round to playing it yet. Is it worth it to play that first?
You will not get disappointed. Go and get it son!
I'd say yes, The Wind Waker is the follow up of OoT. Hard thing to do though, because this Wii U remake is ridiculously irresitible.
Or, he could take a pic of the Trials version of the boss. It'll count.
I just started playing the game and it does look fantastic. However, on my TV, I've noticed that that in the broad daylight, like Windfall Island, there's pixellation in the sky, like these blocky halos that surround objects like clouds or the wind. I don't see this when I switch to the Gamepad.

Where and when an this be done? Man, I forgot everything about this game since I played it ten years ago (which is actually a good thing).
I also need the first boss pic. And it seems most of the players putting it in Tingle bottles only have the b/w pictobox at thst point :/
Two more pics:
the grass is just... too good

From the browser screenshot thread:
The beauty of this game combined with 1080p and 60fps is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had.

It's the first thing you do in Ganon's castle, there's four doors each containing a small puzzle room and then the boss after completing the puzzle. You can take pics of each boss there if you didn't get them before.
It's not 60fps.
Just goes to show how few people notice lol.

what? But it's so smoooooth... If this is 30fps then I give up on caring about framerate forever lol
Thanks!
Well, looks like mine isn't going to turn up today either. This is the first time Shopto have EVER let me down. But what a release to fuck up on. Terrible.
I'm *this* close to buying it on the eShop as I have a £5 off voucher and then just sending the Shopto one back when it gets here.
Pretty disgraceful though. Considering it was supposedly shipped on Wednesday afternoon.

Where is the LE version in stock?
Holy crap, total surprise delivery. Shipped on Tuesday from thehut.com. Arrived today (Germany) and we even had a national Holiday in between. I didn't expect this before next Tuesday at the earliest. Wow wow wow! Weekend is saved!
So I got super-fast delivery (a day later than the street date for international free shipping from the UK is pretty ace!) and got it for way way way way cheaper than both the regular retail price or the eShop price (40 EUR - always preorder early when they offer coupons!).
Put about three hours into the game. I really love it. It makes me wonder why it's taken me so long to get into Zelda, but I watched videos of Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword and I didn't really like the look of those, and I would have to use the Wii Remote and Nunchuck to play which is a control scheme I hate. I think I'm just meant to play this one, lol. It's fantastic, though. I'm so glad I bought it.
Twilight Princess (GCN version) is really fun too, if you were interested. Be pretty sweet if they updated it for the Wii U with both control schemes.

Ready to re-play this masterpiece again. Best thing is I barely remember nothing about it, Its been too long since the last time I played it.
But the GCN version is quite expensive and is somewhat downgraded since it lacks widescreen and IR aiming. Sword Attack = A is awesome but I'm not sure if it makes up for that.
Yeah, that's what I meant by if they released an updated versio for the Wii U. Let us use the good controls + the better visuals
I haven't played the disc version yet, but it's in the GC and download versions so I think it's safe to assume it's everywhere. Whenever you encounter heavy battle that involves a lot of bombs you are going to get that slow down. It doesn't happen that often though.

Finally a thunderstorm snapshot
I don't remember it happening this badly on the GCN version
I'm replaying this by taking way too much time to explore and not doing the main story.
I already done a full ocean exploration for getting the maps, and now I've done another one for the treasures and accessible stuff.
I'm afradi I've just the dull things left :/
And until here, I still don't see how they fixed
. Seems the same thing to me?

the Triforce hunt
It's supposed to take way less time though, which is a great thing because I always thought it was tedious as shit.
You'll only deal with Tingle 3 times instead of eight.

you can only take 720p screenshots on the Wii U, although that's a big improvement over what it used to let you take. the game is categorically absolutely 100% running at 1080p 30 fps.

I wasn't interested in the wii u. I thought the controller was lame. Then they had to bring out a ww bundle. Well let's just say I haven't touched my ps3 or 360 since.
Do you have any accredited sources that can back that up? Because the framedrops happen very often for me...
It seems that most people who haven't spent time with the game pad hate it, and most people who have one or play with one frequently love it. I know that I bought a pro controller thinking I'd use it more, but I always gravitate to the game pad.
Hopefully the stigma around it changes as more and more of the gaming population gets experience with it.
Yeah, you can find most of the triforce shards by exploration now. I was surprised how many I managed to gather without dealing with maps at all.
I don't think he meant that it was a rock-solid 30 FPS, that's just the frame rate it generally runs at.

I know its probably been said a ton, but man this game looks amazing. Im actually kind of happy I skipped the GC version way back and I am getting to play it first like this.
