Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Review Thread
- Thread starter BY2K
- Start date
For the record, I played it extremely late as well, the GBA version at that.
It holds up extremely well.
I got my goods GAF!
But not the treasure chest goodies yet, no.
So yeah apparently Micromania in France have the go from Nintendo to sell the bundle and game (that's what was discussed in the shop and on phone with the micromania workers).
I think it's a good call, since you don't want your fellow Zelda fans with their Link Between Worlds and shiny gold 3DSXL in hands mixed up with dudebros fighting for their DDR3 in some dailymotion videos next week.
...where's the Triforce?

Here you go.
OMG
If you could write the "all in all youre just another link in the wall" with the same style as the title of the pink Floyd album, you would merge 2 things I love so much...
I'm so hyped now for this game...
Yep, same camp. ALttP tends to lose my interest after the stormy night intro. I played up until the first dungeon of the Dark World before admitting I was forcing myself through it. I vastly prefer Link's Awakening DX. But this game looks like a big improvement over its SNES predecessor, largely due to the pacing in the dungeons they've shown -- a constant string of combat, puzzles and traversal. Something about it seems punchier. Stamina-regulated items and full analog control will also free up the action, and of course the freedom to do dungeons in any order is amazing.

Everything about it seems snappier and polished to give it a moment-to-moment immediacy none of the other Zeldas had, especially the 3D ones. The 60fps, the fast-travel system, the magic meter, the map/inventory touch screen, the bouncy animations of enemies reacting to your attacks(and how fast you can attack), the 360 analog controls giving you far more precision than the 4-way/8-way directions of the prior top-down 2D Zeldas. Its seems to be a smoother, downright more playable Zelda than any of the previous entries. That excites me, along with the appearently tighter game design and hands-off approach to guiding the player.
I'm wondering if the hyrule castle song is included in this game (it's my most wanted song in the game. Still one of the best pieces created) I know the reverse song secret already, but i don't care about that
Considering the Hyrule Castle is in the game... I'd expect it to.

It sort of is, it's pretty much an entiere new one so does this count?
It already was one new in The Minish Cap if you recall, this one sounds even more different.
And I'm disapointed with it. I don't know how to explain, it sounds more funny/cartoonish than epic?
Maybe there is a more badass version of it later in the game, maybe you will like more than me it as it is.

You're welcome!

This is the type of deal i want to score myself. But nothing hot so far in the black friday deals, i saw the orginal with Luigi's mansion for a 150, not that good deal (in my opinion) and even then it wasnt online.
I would like to buy on Amazon but prices are normal so far.
I got my goods GAF!
But not the treasure chest goodies yet, no.

Now nintendo can make a Zelda 2 successor using Smash Bro's link as a template.... Please? PLEASE!?

$150 for the system and a game is pretty damn good, I just got super lucky.
But I suppose it would explain why red is such an unflattering color for the 3DS
True. I would equate the 3DS with Arya, it keeps moving right along getting better and better taking out foes one by one.

You can't download the game before it goes up on the eShop I think.

I think this will be my last resort after Black. The color is atrocious but i plan to buy some screen protectors and with a nice case it might cover the color. Does that store sell games? That way i could grab all in one shipment.
