I knew from the moment I saw that it didn't look like the tech demo that a thread like this would pop up. The textures do look cleaned up however and there's supposedly new updates to the game as well. Though I want to see what said updates are before I throw down the cash for this one.

such a shame after so much hype building, the game looks the same as on Wii/GC, and it's also made by Tanalus...

Looks =/= play

Sure, but you said you'll keep playing the GC version. It would be very strange if the HD version didn't meet your lowly demands.


It didn't met in the graphical department, why are you sure they will in the gameplay area?

I'll be giving TP another chance by actually buying the game. Maybe it'll actually be good.

Wait. One thing I didn't notice. Is this the GCN version or the mirrored Wii version?

People were expecting a full on remake?

Nope, just the equivalent of this. 


That's what you got though, TP just has a completely different visual style.

Non-mirrored. Link is left handed in the trailer, so it's based on the Gamecube version, which is good.

Good. The superior version wins.

That lighting and shading effects were not touched in this. Windwaker HD got a whole new lighting system with shading effects like DoF.

It certainly does look underwhelming...
I'll still end up getting it, as it is quite possibly my favorite Zelda game...
I want to hear about the new content...
Not that I'm expecting much...

No load screens, 1080p30fps and hero mode and maybe I'll bite.

It looked 1080p to me. No obvious aliasing or blur. It would be kind of pathetic if the game ran at 720p to be honest lol. 

There only few Wii U games that are 1080p.

Twilight Princess is not a Wii U game. Both WWHD and Monster Hunter Tri (GC/Wii games) are 1080p 30+ fps. 

WW HD has very simple graphic with simple textures and models and again had FPS drops below 30, TP graphics is more complex and demanding than WW graphics.

WW is a full on remake the's a difference, TPHD is an HD port or remaster.
