The Legend of Zelda Wii-U Shown at Nintendo Digital Event ["2015"]

Sigh. If there ever was a game I'd want to play in Superior Definition (even better if it was in glorious 3D), it'd be this one.

But there's no justice in the world. If there was, Hideous Definition would never have existed and the Wii would be the once and future king of consoles that it should have been.

But enough ranting, are those Ganondorf's bracers Link is wearing? Definitely some Gerudo-related motif there...

I've never been more happy than the moment that background changed behind Aonuma.

One of the best moments of my year.

Really impressed with nintendo's showing today. Zelda's revamp and art style and open world are all genuinely incredible.

You guys do remember that they debuted Zelda when they revealed the Wii-U and it turned out to be vaporware, right?

And now they show off a few seconds of a scripted open world Zelda game and everyone freaks out again.

Where is the actual gameplay? Who is to say this is even real?

And this makes Nintendo win E3? Seriously?

(I am totally buying a Wii-U next year, and would LOVE for this Zelda game to be the real deal but I am at this point highly skeptical)

sorry but nintendo is no UBISOFT

Will be getting a Wii U for this. Yep. Is it possible that it will actually look this good though? I mean, it looks amazing with all that grass and shit. Could the Wii U really handle that?

It's the Zelda team. I'm pretty sure the game looks just like that.

Looks beautiful.

Open world is scary. I have more faith in Nintendo to get it right than others, but I still hate this trend. Hopefully, the game is more what the Witness sounds like- with an emphasis on density and actual meaningful content in each location- than Skyrim, where I don't give a shit if I can walk to that mountain in the distance because there's nothing interesting to do.
 
Is there a high quality trailer any where?

Also, Link is clearly a guy. check those broad shoulders and noticeably flat chest, common gender identifiers in anime.

lol what

That was always deemed a tech demo, NEVER a game.
If you think this isn't real than Uncharted 4 would been even less real going by your logic.
Seriously ?I can' wrap my head around how utterly stupid this post is

From the moment Aishitaka left the village and the music kicked in I always wanted a Mononoke Videogame where it's just you and your mount in a vast untouched natural landscape... This promises to be just that, and more!
This is the best day ever!
 
Looks fucking stunning. Like Wind Waker on steroids, EXACTLY what I fantasized about. Almost brought a tear to my eye.

But 2015? :(

people saying this looks childish... CHILDISH? HOW? The use of color? You wanted a gritty grim-dark world? WTH man?

It looks beautiful in motion, it takes inspiration from both Skyward Sword and the Wind Waker remaster and I LOVE IT.

I'm now anxiously waiting for when they finally reveal some gameplay.

After more than 10 years, they finally managed to get the artistics. Ocarina, Wind Waker and finally this..

Actually is skyward sword with stamina.. This game saved my faith in nintendo... In graphics at least.

It was such a great reveal. Suddenly when the music kicked in, explosions with the monster following Link.
I'm of the opinion that this Link is a girl, albeit a tom boyish one.

How's it scary? It'll be like the original Legend of Zelda and even like A Link Between Worlds.
This ain't your Elder Scrolls. This is Legend of Zelda.

The fuck, people? They even went out of their way to state that it's going to be akin to the original Legend of Zelda.

C'mon.
 
Really doubt this game is getting released next year. It's been in the work for years and all they have to show is a 30 sec cutscene trailer?
