No. SS is a boring slog of a game that isn't good by any standard.

Dolphin bar is an USB sensor bar with built-in bluetooth that allows you to use your Wiimote+ on PC.

Thanks for telling me about this, because I think I might need one of these. I made an attempt at replaying Skyward Sword in Dolphin long ago but eventually gave up due to difficulties I was having in keeping my Wiimote synced to my PC's bluetooth dongle. If this bar makes using Wiimote on a PC any less of a hassle, I'll definitely look into buying one.

SS is the best Zelda ever made.

 

[Svette Armhuler]

Fuck all these HD remakes. And Skyward Sword is one of the worst modern Zeldas.

I dont mind the delay though - polish it to perfection, Nintendo!

 

[Richie]

I'd sooner pay for a compilation of the 3DS OoT/MM remakes in HD.

And even then I'd prefer such a package on the NX.

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

Fuck all these HD remakes.

Literally why. Explain how they're bad. Go.

 

[Ms.Galaxy]

Silly child, Skyward Sword doesn't have a left handed option.

 

[Flopfan]

no , it wouldn't.

 

[User 479360]

Yes, but I would prefer it if they got rid of the Wiimote.

 

[Romars202129]

hell no

Thank you, shoulda been first post.

...Mario galaxy 1 and 2 HD maybe tho...

 

[marmoka]

Oh god... This game is from 2011, 5 years old.

Leave the HD remaster to 2021.

 

[Coffinhal]

Wait what, Zelda U is again delayed to 2017 ? 2017 ? Trump will have made his vow as POTUS and invaded China by then, and Red Dead 3 will have been teased, revealed, released and GOTYed.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

SS is the best Zelda ever made.

 

[TI82]

If we got an updated version with good controls and cut all the padding. That game is so awful.

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

 

[kromeo]

Nope.

I'm packing up my Wii U this weekend. Not sure if it's going in the closet or to GameStop.

Lol so disgusted with nintendo the avatar had to go?

 

[AzaK]

Nope.

I'm packing up my Wii U this weekend. Not sure if it's going in the closet or to GameStop.

Don't do that. Use it like I use mine - to keep the dust off the entertainment cabinet shelf.

 

[HeroInGreen]

I haven't cared for any of the Zelda remasters, so... no, I won't care for SS HD either.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Lol so disgusted with nintendo the avatar had to go?

Nah, that has nothing to do with it.

This was my first avatar and I was planning on bringing it out of retirement.

It is the best 3D zelda since OOT, simple fact.

 

[kromeo]

Probably my least favorite zelda alongside phantom hourglass, and not just because of the motion controls. The dungeons were about the most forgettable in the series and the treck through the same 3 areas multiple times just felt lazy.

I might give it another go some time but i'll stick with the one i already paid for

 

[Ushojax]

I want it because Skyward Sword doesn't deserve to stay at 480p forever, but I can't really see them releasing a Wii remote/nunchuck game in 2016.

Redesigning the game for a more traditional controller would be a very stupid decision, they already made that mistake with DK Jungle Beat and it ruined the game.

 

[AmaterasuOkami076]

It wouldn't quench my first. But it's a great game. I'd buy it. Package it up with a Soundtrack and I'm good to go.

 

[braves01]

No, and I don't even like Skyward Sword that much, but it would be better than nothing.

 

[maxcriden]

Skyward Sword is coming as a Wii Virtual Console game. It was leaked when Twilight Princess HD was leaked.

Ah, that's right. I forgot about that.

But an HD won't happen right now regardless. It would require too much reworking unless they included a Wiimote+, and they're focused on Zelda and likely other projects. Especially with the VC release in the pipeline.

 

[Aroll]

Wouldn' surprise me too much - not as a "sorry", but because SSHD can only happen when Wiimotes are still viable.

 

[axisofweevils]

I'd prefer a port of Four Swords Adventures - its the only Zelda not playable with this gen hardware.

 

[Hot Coldman]

If they were going to release ANOTHER HD Zelda remaster on Wii U this year, they'd be better off doing the OoT/MM3D.

 

[bachikarn]

If they redesigned the game without motion controls, then maybe. But I'm not buying a Wii U so my opinion is irrelevant.

 

[120v]

skyward sword is the greatest game i never want to play again

 

[dragonbane]

No thank you. Kinda mediocre and pretty forgettable game in the end

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

It is the worst 3D zelda since OOT, simple fact.

Fixed that for ya.

 

[jonno394]

No, I rarely ever manage to replay Zelda games, I get bored quite soon in on second play throughs.

 

[Yautja_Warrior]

Well there's not much else coming at this point, so why not.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Yeah if it's sans motion controls.

 

[ViciousDS]

Skyward Sword without motion controls............I'll play it. Would be the first time I touch it too.

 

[Luigiv]

Yeah. Although I also could just buy a Dolphin bar and play it HD that way lol.

LoL, That's literally what I did. Bought a dolphin bar just to play SS in HD. It just came in yesterday.

 

[Betty]

You couldn't pay me to play it again, even if it had no motion controls.

 

[Peltz]

Personally, I would like it. Yes.

 

[Aldric]

If it was a remaster on the level of Wind Waker HD that fixed all the problems with the game

They'd have to cut about two thirds of the game for that, l don't think it's feasible.

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

Fixed that for ya.

keep on keepin wrong

 

[MoogleWizard]

I have a stronk PC. Skyward Sword emulated in HD looks stunning

.

If it looked like this, then yes. SS is a gorgeous looking game held back by the Wii hardware. It deserves the HD treatment. Playing Twilight Princess HD made me appreciate SS even more. It's so much more fun and has some of the best dungeons in the series. And I loved the controls except one or two missteps. Some parts like the roller coaster ride or the final boss put a smile on my face.

 

[JSevere]

Skyward Sword HD shouldn't happen unless Wii Remote Plus+Nunchuk is still the main mode of control. Motion controls are the core of the game, replacing them with the GamePad control scheme is taking out part of its identity.

It'd look pretty as hell though

 

[Oblivion]

The only thing that would make me forgive Nintendo's betrayal regarding Zelda Wii-U is an HD remake of OoT.

 

[takriel]

I would love an HD Skyward Sword. The art style would really shine in a higher resolution. The game would instantly become one of the most beautiful games ever created.

 

[Noray]

JOAN GIF IS BEST GIF

And yeah Skyward Sword sucks and is actually the worst console Zelda by a fair margin

 

[Rodin]

As much as i love the game, absolutely not.

 

[Shaanyboi]

It is the best 3D zelda since OOT, simple fact.

SS has a lot of interesting things about it, but its pacing and overworld are dogshit. The forced repetition of content and egregious handholding get in the way of some genuinely interesting puzzle and level design.

Its side content has a charm but certainly isn't a real draw, the combat boils down to the same "swing this way, swing this way" mechanic over and over again with little to make it interesting, and the weak-ass Wii hardware made its attempted setpieces so fucking lame. Also it has a fucking terrible ending.

 

[Whompa02]

Final Fantasy 15 and Last Guardian will

 

[FreedomFighter]

Nah, we don't need Skyward Sword HD remake this early.

We've had Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. That's enough for now.
