I was considering it, but at this point I'll wait, hoping that the NX version will offer better performance. They better port Mario Maker to NX though.

I'm sure it will be an option.

Shield Surfing + Arrows is something that I didn't know I wanted to do until they said it.

This feels like Zelda 64DD realized.

I think the voice in the game might be Zelda. It would be fitting if only the game's namesake talked.
Really liking the chime music briefly playing in the icy area. Reminds me of DKC.
Stop reaching. Link is a defined character, he doesn't have to have gender options.
It's the Wii U version, but I wouldn't call the graphics disappointing for a massive open world game on hardware that is somewhat comparable to the PS3 and 360. Looks really solid for Wii U, and it is an open world game.

Fire arrows already?! So many things to do.
You are likely still able to do so, especially since the remasters have offered up the same options. I do think they are intentionally trying to show off that it works with a normal layout, so there's that.

I'm hoping they'll port Splatoon and Mario Maker to NX because after seeing this footage NX is a day one purchase for me.

That's what I was getting at. It seems like they are definitely downplaying that stuff, maybe a sign that the NX version will have a different control scheme.

Things that are worrying/disappointing me:
- The world looks very empty with not a whole lot going on.
- Pop-in.
- Another Zelda game that looks very easy.
- The stamina meter should be on the side of the screen, not right next to Link.
- The climbing looks ridiculously slow.
- No voice acting for NPC's (really annoyed with this).
Other than that it looks fairly solid. The trailer looked amazing, but the more gameplay I watch the more boring it kinda seems.

Dammit, my stream messed up and I missed the shield surfing. 
Why would they be using the NX version when it has been said repeatedly that the NX is NOT going to be at E3?
awwww yeaaah!!

And a better sword.
Elder Scrolls doesn't have that kind of interaction complexity or mechanics depth. Setting the world on fire? Chopping down trees? Climbing? Elder Scrolls is a big flat RPG content grind: kill things, accumulate exp/resources, level, repeat. IMO, it's more like Nintendo wanted to take a try at tackling 3D open world from a uniquely Nintendo perspective rather than trying to do Elder Scrolls.
It reminds me of Zelda 1: dropped straight into the game, meeting the old man at the fire, a focus on environment and object interactivity, not to mention combat. The only influence from Elder Scrolls seems limited to "it's big and open", which is not a uniquely Elder Scrolls quality.
Yeah, after Horizon this look really bland.

The more I watch this the more I think this is going to be the MGSV of the Zelda series, for good or bad. It's definitely the most I've been interested in a Zelda game in a while though.

They're using the WiiU controller, and I doubt they would use NX prototypes on the showfloor.

This snowy peak looks awsome man going to have fun with this.
Looks like there a bunch of different outfits for the game. Traditional kokiri tunic will be there, guaranteed.
Lol at those saying Link is female when they have even showed him in the trailer as shirtless. I didn't see her boobs if that is so unless they are doing gender neutral Link.
Also I need this on NX. Nintendo needs to stop loving being behind the curve and have to announce the new console because as much as I love the WiiU it is done and Zelda would do better with/in Nintendo's fresh start.

I haven't been following the NX rumours and stuff but is there no chance of backwards compatibility?

All the little things. Now please showe us some meat! Some actual stuff happening...Bosses, huge enemies. Something exciting. So far it's so damn empty and directionless. I'm sure the whole game isn't like this but they've only shown the small things that distract you from...well, what exactly?
