Yeah, and I just noticed how weird the water looks this way. With this new style the water looks completely solid, but it shouldn't considering the way light defuses in the air.
If they went with this style, the water would need to be somewhat transparent.

They fucked up the artstyle. the worst is it Nintendo themselves fucked it up, and we can't even balme some exterior developer....

The updated graphics aren't enough of an improvement (WW still looks beautiful) to sell me this game, but I love WW enough that if they can throw in some substantial new features, I'll probably double dip.
Pictobox quest should be awesome.

I had to check my browser, I thought I was looking at an archived post from 1999.My only concern is that if the new Zelda in development (not WWHD) is going to look like this:

My least favorite 3D Zelda aside from SS. With that said I'll buy it anyway because there is little else to play.

Wow, holy hell. Just saw this news. I'm so so in. I don't even have a WiiU yet, but this seals it.
Dear Nintendo: any chance we could throw in those other two dungeons and maybe have a 3DS Tingle Tuner?

Looks good enough, if you prefer the original, well just play the original in Dolphin? At least it's completely remade and hence worth a rebuy.

This is a way to get me to buy a Wii U.. Damn it.
Wait what is this about missing dungeons?
I am so behind on some of this news.
Wanted MM HD over this but what the hell haven't played WW since it came out the first time so can't wait!
Game is also obviously super early in development since they didn't even show it in video form. Hopefully it looks more "HD" then the pictures show for its release.
Has it been confirmed to be released this fall?

I think people are being a little artistically snobbish in here. If you have any attachment whatsoever to this game (a nearly flawless Zelda game aside from the triforce fetch quest and also the ocean's boringness sometimes), then you have to be elated that this is being made.
I've always wondered how much progress was made on the cut dungeons.
There's a lot a scrapped data on the disc and yet all of it seems to be alternative or old version of places already in the game. It seems the fabled two missing dungeons were scrapped at a a really early stage. If there is little data for them to quickly fix up I wouldn't have high hopes of them being included.

They said by Fall this year in the video.

Bloom never looks good in stills. Wait till gameplay footage.
Buying a WiiU just for this.

I personally like the new visuals. I'm already so used to the vanilla game in HD using Dolphin that i'd like a change, and i'm sure Nintendo know this. The lighting is spectacular (although i'd really like them to tone down that bloom) and the more 3D character models look cool. It's the gameplay enhancements that really interest me though - such as how it will utilize the gamepad and how much of the original game's fat they will trim. Granted, it was already by far the best in the series, so the prospect of it getting even better is giddying.

This has to be the worst pictures of Wind Waker on The Dolphin Emulator that I have ever seen.
They said it's getting released in the Fall. Under a year.

Oh, that's nice. I was under the impression it was going to be an "HD Remake", meaning just the emulated game running at 1080p. It's nice that they're updating the models, shaders and (looks like) textures. I really hope there's a "hard mode" of some kind.
But jesus christ that bloom. Tone that shit down.

I've never played Wind Waker, like ever, so I guess this could be a system seller for me. I'll wait and see how it turns out.
