Skyward Sword's soundtrack is phenomenal. I have no idea how anyone could be disappointed with it. The third and last dungeons have two of the most awesome tracks ever. The boss tracks are above and beyond as well.

It'd be great if there's a pic at the end of the credits with Aonuma wearing Majora's Mask with the words NOPE SORRY across the screen.

I bet it has something to do with the item shop keeper, since he's seemingly the happy mask salesman
So as terrible as this will sound especially in this thread I am 32, owned a launch SNES when I was a kid and never played through LTTP. My first game was Ocarina Of Time. I had waited to play LTTP hoping it would be released on the Wii U Virtual console a few weeks before A Link Between Two Worlds was released.
Obviously that is not going to happen. So my question is should I go back and play through LTTP or is it not worth is and should I just play A Link Between Two Worlds?

I have a 3DSXL but how do you not buy that 3DSXL.
Well, A Link to the Past is the best Zelda game ever, so I think the answer is YES, you should play it.
It's on Club Nintendo right now. Get that, boot your Wii U into Wii mode and redeem and play it there.
I sort of groaned when I first heard about Lorule. But then we're dealing with a game whose prequel (ALttP) featured an antagonist named AGAHNIM so...
That's... weird.
I already own the Wii version, but hate how it stretches it on my HDTV in Wii mode....
Wow...

Due to the delay of my PS4 shipment and anticipation of this game, I'm doing a LTTP run. This time i'm playing it on GBA. Having voices in the SNES version is odd to me. It's hard to get used to
TLOZ is 4 characters!

Link is
either the descendant of the happy mask sales man. The happy mask sales man in disguise. Or the happy mask sales man got robbed again

Oh my.
wat.
I didn't like Ballad of the Goddess when I first heard it, but now I think it's a great song. Especially the orchestral 25th anniversary version, the version Zelda plays on harp and sings, and the versions from the staff roll: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSZBcPRQpO8
The first time I heard the Ballad of the Goddess I thought something was really really wrong, it was just a bunch of sounds. Like it made no sense to me as a song. It was weird. After a while I got used to it and loved it. I don't know If I unconsciously knew it was kind of a reverse of a song I knew or just I didnt like it at first, but it really happened

Yeah it's really great. I didn't care for it at first either. The rest of the SS soundtrack though... oh my.

This version of it is one of my favorites. It's like some ballroom song.

Now that this and Super Mario 3D World are right around the corner, I'm finally pulling myself away from Pokemon long enough to finish Wind Waker HD since I'd rather not be playing two Zelda games at the same time. I have A Link Between Worlds preordered, but EAD Mario takes priority, so I might not it start for a few days. I'm definitely excited to play it, though.
I think I'm just more surprised at
the "Ravio takes over Link's house" part. Maybe I missed something before, but that's news to me

Yeah it's gorgeous. It's a really great movement.
We've known about that since Ravio was first revealed.
Here is the first screenshot revealing Ravio. Notice anything? Hint: Top left corner.
Honestly, I never did notice that. o_o Ha, that's awesome.We've known about that since Ravio was first revealed.

You know what Zelda game has an amazing soundtrack and is criminally underrated? Spirit Tracks. That might be one of my top Zelda soundtracks. It's just so good.
Title Theme
Realm Overworld
Troubled Realm
Final Preparations
Byrne Helps
The Best Zelda Final Boss Theme
I would kill for a fully orchestrated version of this soundtrack.
Let's see, who composed for Spirit Tracks...
Toru Minegishi
Manaka Tominaga
Asuka Ota
Koji Kondo
Tominaga apparently hasn't worked on anything besides Spirit Tracks
Ota has worked on titles like NSMB, Mario Kart, and TP.
Minegishi is working on 3D World... hmmm.

Maybe, maybe not. The Fierce Deity's mask looks like Link. So, if there are connections, there may be deeper connections that originally thought.
Honestly, this is the only Zelda game to be announced which has a soundtrack that isn't doing much for me.

As of the October system update, Wii VC games don't do this anymore when played on a Wii U. They now display in the correct 4:3 ratio.

It may just be a nod and not anything story related though, similar to the Mario paintings in OoT.
Yeah at this point I'm going to assume it's just a nod with no other significance in this game.
That's what I've heard so far. No one that's beaten it has mentioned anything, even after the review embargo lifted. It's safe to assume that's the nod.
Also, there's a lot of things I don't know about ALBW. I previously asked about the composer, but I also don't know who the director is. I assume Aonuma is producing.

Oh lol I meant his battle theme. Normal theme is just build up

Off the top of my head:
Kid Icarus Uprising
Xenoblade Chronicles
Donkey Kong Country 3D
Though now it seems everything will be a Friday release going forward. So far everything with a date is a Friday release, as was DK before it got delayed to Feb. I certainly hope it stays this way!

Almost every game is released on Friday's in Europe. It's the best day for releases as it gives you a whole weekend to play no need to take sick days off
.I don't get it.
You know after watching a video review today, I kind of regret watching a lot of footage and reading about the game before hand. I didn't even know that the game was almost completely non-linear and you could get all the items from the get go until about last weekend. Things like that would've been really cool to come across unknowingly by going into the game completely blind.
It's my own fault though. I should've stayed away, but I couldn't resist the hype.
