I'm curious about the size. The game weighs 7.5 GB... While the original was around 4.26 GB. What did they do to increase the file size by almost 80%? They clearly didn't put better textures or anything like that,... Maybe there's more to this version than we think? More content in some way? A rearranged soundtrack?

Or maybe Nintendo just lost its touch with their game size magic xD

Anyway, I'm super excited about this game. Skyward Sword is easily one of my favourite Zelda games and I can't wait to experience it again with crisp HD visuals, smooth 60fps, improved motion controls, portable mode and most likely many tweaks and changes that improce the original experience.

Probably the uncompressed versions of the soundtrack and the textures.

I’d like to be surprised with more content though. Extra dungeon is always nice. But that’s not really a realistic expectation.

Seeing how size tends to decrease or stay close to the original when Nintendo ports their games to other systems... I wouldn't be so sure. It may be what you are saying, but I will wait a few months until we get more info. After all, when they announced WW HD and TP HD they didn't reveal the vast majority of improvements and tweaks. I don't think what we just saw in this trailer is everything there is in Skyward Sword HD...
