Thats it Turkish you tell them old buddy.
As to everyone saying this isnt worth it.. Was the OOT Remake not worth being done??. Did it not sell good?.
This game isnt like the PS3 and 360 Hd remakes of games that are nothing more then their PS2 etc versions being upscaled and yet some fans go ape shit over them type of games all the time.
This game is a full REMAKE with new graphics and stuff like that.
Its this game plus Xenoblade 2 that has me wanting to buy a WiiU


I can assure you it will not be Xenoblade 2, most likely a Xeno-series game, but not Xenoblade2. Not enough people played that game. They're aiming to take a giant splash in the JRPG genre, this means like new IP.

 

But yes that WW remake looks awesome.

Windwaker HD didn't make me want the system, but it sure helps. I'll get it once I... get the Wii U...

Edit: GameCube is winning in the poll. It's only logical. (Watch NES beat it out now...)


Never got to play the original?

The orginial WindWaker was the first Zelda game I ever played. It's also my favorite.

What HD WW doesn't convince you enough? My sister called me when she heard the news and started screaming into the phone (it was my 1st Zelda too and my sister watched). Personally I would like a remake of Kirby Air Ride, that game is heavily underappriciated.

I already had a system seller. I didn't need another.

an HD port as systemseller-lol.

If you announce an HD port for ps360 of a similar game with similar quality people couldn't care less.
500k-1mio units will be sold.That's it.

What is so amazing about wind waker HD?Nothing.The only amazing thing will be that Nintendo will try to sell this games for full prize,just like they did with OOT.
Nowadays a new MGS is selling better than Zelda,but noone has become ecstatic about MGS 3 HD or called MGS HD a system seller(and MGS HD has 3 games in 1,wind waker is just 1 game)

Maybe Wii U owners are a little bit desperate now(like vita owners) that they are thankfull for every little game but
it's the same situation for Wii U now Nintendo Fanboys were criticizing the Vita for.
Almost only sequels(and i'm pretty sure mario cart is more HD using old tracks but new.)and games everyone knew that they will be released.
Vita was criticized by nintendo fanboys for virtua tennis,uncharted,wipeout,fifa

nintendo is worshipped for doing the same with mario3d,mario cart(the same games that were released in the past month for 3ds,being released again on wii u=boring)and wind waker.
that's pathetic.

 

Now I"ll try to find out what was so amazing about Nintendo direct.I've only heard about games everyone  knew that they would be released on wii u anyway.

Nintendo Direct was good... but you are right to say mostly it revealed games that people already expect. The games with footage shown however, were looking spectacular, so any gamer should be salivating over that stuff.

As for whether Wind Waker "remaster" is a system seller... it sure would be for Zelda enthusiasts. I doubt all the Zelda enthusiasts which made the Wii launch a success have picked up Wii U yet. Remember the Wii launched with Zelda Twilight Princess and Wii Sports... sales of both together put demand in the news and caused even more public awareness primarily focused on Wii Sports.

Also, please don't confuse "remaster" with HD port... very different level of effort and possibly vast difference between original and "remastered". MGS games HD collections were HD ports... the Silicon Knights developed version of MGS-Twin Snakes was a "remaster" of the PSOne classic on Gamecube. The Resident Evil version of PSOne classic on Gamecube was a "remaster".

Anyway, for me personally... Ninja Gaiden 3 - Razor's Edge was enough to justify buying the Wii U but as with any gaming hardware, that single game isn't my only benefit. I also got to play and enjoy Nintendo Land, New Super Mario Bros U, and bunch of other titles on the system already in addition to Razor's Edge.

I am an enthusiast for Ninja Gaiden... bought original Xbox for it... bought the PS3 when Ninja Gaiden Sigma went to it. Bought Xbox 360 when Ninja Gaiden 2 went to it. Bought the PS-Vita when it launched with Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus.

A gamer should view "value" in terms of time spent and enjoyed... not money spent. What difference does it make if you already own Wind Waker for Gamecube but never play it... but if you buy the remaster on Wii U and play that for 20-30 hours and really love it then I would say you got value.

Have you never bought a Blu-Ray for a movie you already watched or maybe even own on DVD? If not bought... then rented the HD version of it? Same principal applied to games.

Well, it's a Nintendo Console. And with that comes Mario Kart, SSB, and 3D/2D Mario. Plus there was Pikmin.

I'm not a fan of Wind Waker but I'd buy a remake of Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime, or F Zero GX.

So a multitude of games eh? 

Personally, Project X is making me not regret anything. That's probably my "System Seller". (Well I bought WiiU before the annoucement but I knew it was coming.)
