It's pretty scary how much more I've been enjoying Twilight Princess HD as opposed to the Wii port. The most basic of improvements have really contributed to the feeling of the game.

Stuff like free camera control, improved resolution, having the map and items displayed on the gamepad, the screen being less cluttered with UI, traditional controls for combat, gyro controls for items, a bigger wallet, etc. have really made me enjoy even the beginning segment (which is pretty bad as a whole) more than the original. I don't think it's as big of an improvement as Wind Waker HD, but I don't regret buying it at all (plus the amiibo looks hella nice). :P

Hm everything sounds pretty awesome! Honestly TP HD strikes me as one of the games that's best played with the GamePad so I'll to defintely give it a go while using it. For some reason I was stubborn and didn't try out the Pad for WW HD but these changes seems worth it. 

Playing Wind Waker HD with the gamepad is still my favorite experience on the Wii U, as well as my favorite gaming experience ever. It really changes the dynamic and makes everything seamless, like the barrier between you and the game has been knocked down. The immersion definitely benefits from it, imo.

Nice. It was back when I didn't think much of the GamePad and just preferred the Pro Controller hands down. And while I do in regards for a game like Smash, I started to like the GamePad alot after playing Hyrule Warriors and Splatoon as much as I have. 

About Square Enix, does anyone know if that version of Final Fantasy I is going to come to the West? You know, that anniversary remake they did for the 3DS as a preorder bonus to Explorers?

Shame, it's not like they need to translate the whole game, it's decades old now and it has a translation already. They could have easily charged 5-10€ for it and people would have bought it, or used it like they did with Japan and packed it with Explorers as a preorder bonus.

Yeah, while there are some games where I prefer the Pro Controller (Bayonetta 2, Smash, Hyrule Warriors to name a few), other games just feel much better with the GamePad, such as the Zelda games, Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, etc.

They serve very different purposes for me, and I like having the option to switch (if the game provides it).

Seriously. SE were basically a pillar for the DS's third party line up and basically made the PSP worth anything in my eyes. The drop off when the 3DS came to town was rough to see (with the Vita only getting hand me downs).
