Yes the 3D does make it objectively better looking.
Just at the first dungeon but everything is so brisk, the mechanics are so SNAPPY. I'm sure there'll be great things to come but that's the greatest thing you can say, in my opinion, that doing every small little thing feels fun like a Mario game. Oh and the music.

Downloading now..
is there really still no progress bar on eshop downloads? Sheesh.

Yes there is. See the icon of the game? It fills up as it downloads.
Dunno how you'd miss that.
Just got back from GameStop. There was only one other couple there just for Zelda. Everyone else was in line for the XB1. They were nice enough to let us purchase our stuff first. I caved and bought the Zelda 3DS XL. Some guy as I was walking out asked me about it. I guess he didn't know you could buy it early?
I'm ready to play Zelda for a few hours before work in the morning. I'll be tired, but a good tired.

There has been one since Day-1. The icon of your game fills up during the download. What did you think the marbles dropping into the icon indicated?
I'm setting my speakers up later today so that I can do something similar. It's going to be GOOD.

Could someone help me out? Lorule spoiler below
I'm trying to find the chest in 1F in the Ice Ruins
Eeeeep, I could easily do that through my KEF Coda boxes! Great idea, thanks!

Once I get my copy, I'm going to really savor this one!
Played for three hours and completed two dungeons.
I appreciate not being having to contend with a prolonged introduction. Within thirty minutes I had already accessed the first dungeon. What exposition is there is engaging enough to make me wonder why the Zelda team has insisted on stuff more and more cutscenes into every game.
Being able to complete dungeons in a nonlinear order is refreshing, as is figuring out how to access those dungeons without any blatant hints or suggestions from a companion character.
I was worried that the rental system would mean each dungeon was designed under the assumption you weren't using anything other than your sword and torch, but that thankfully isn't the case. I've already rented every item in the game. It would feel a little too easy if it weren't for losing access to all of those items upon death. Knowing that I could lose my entire inventory makes battles more tense than usual..
The wall mechanic is ingenuous. As obvious as it sounds, the ability forces you to think about every area of the game from a different perspective. I've already found a few heart pieces, hundreds of rupees, and some easter eggs from simply experimenting with it in different locations.
Really enjoying it so far.

I have 8 more pages of a research paper to write and 3 hours of class until I can play this game. I hate you all!
But seriously, I hope you're all having fun

about 2 hours in, and it's already one of the best OSTs I've ever heard. No exaggeration.
Milk bar unplugged sessions... oh lordy.
Great!
I'm having so much fun traversing the world just finding little caves and stuff to explore. The game is so fluid, the music is so good and everything is so unrestrained; it really is a treat to play. So far, everything seems so well designed and intricate which is refreshing coming from The Wind Waker HD so recently, which I have always felt became formulaic because of the grid like nature of the map.
I'm already hoping for a (spiritual) sequel that uses the same technology but with a completely original world to explore as opposed to the much requested Majora's Mask remake. Actually, it would be kind of interesting to see that game demade in this engine.

Y-You got essentially 3 copies of the game?! Ha ha nice!
Considering to just get the physical version if Nintendo can't get their shit together with the download codes...
I'll miss out the treasure chest though now I guess, ha ha

I'm only at the second dungeon, but I STILL can't believe that a flagship title from Nintendo in 2013 has the ideals of a flagship title from Nintendo in the early 90s. A beautiful world and soundtrack combined with high respect for the player's intellect. Now this is what I've been missing from my favorite gaming developer from the past ten years.
It is such a brilliant return to form. Good god, if they transfer this design philosophy over to the Wii U, I will buy it over the PS4
