Not to this level:


That's because WW was a remake not a HD port like TP.

WWHD is a remaster, not a remake.

TPHD should be a remaster too, not a port. Tantalus has been working on this a lot more time than EAD on TWWHD.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

No WW is a remake, the assets were redone from scratch just like MM, TP is an uprezzing aka remaster.

TPHD's texture work is more clearly extensive than WWHD's

WWHD does have more extensive lighting.

Both have similar amounts of character model reworking, but WWHD doesn't need it as badly as TPHD does. TP could maybe do with a little more.

TPHD could benefit greatly with extra bump-mapping in the textures and other organic-feeling particle effects.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

And lighting. I think it will benefit from that.

... aaaand I can't help but notice this in the video's description

What's coming next?
Displacement
Tes... NVM... I can't spoil it ;)

 

 

I honestly figure Nintendo's kept tabs on the TPHD Dolphin fan projects for awhile and that interest level is what's really led them to do this in the first place. I think they'd hate to have to pay modders for the work they've done, so they're leaning on Tantalus to learn the same tricks the modders already know.

 

If I worked at Tantalus, I'd have no shame at this point in reaching out for more help now the cat's out of the bag. They may already be doing that now.

TP HD looks notable better than TP Wii, some people are acting like it looks completely same.

Nostalgia glasses

Watching the trailer, the game looked how I remembered TP looking.

Heck, same as Wind Waker HD. My memory makes the original wind waker look like HD in my mind.

Pavolink is right. WWHD is a remaster. The assets weren't redone from scratch at all. I don't know where you're getting this from, but that's simply false.

There are enough comparison videos and articles out there for you to look it out yourself.

You know, I've never really played TP before because:
A-it's on Wii, my most hated console
B- The graphics looked bad in 2006 let alone now
C- That tutorial though?

SOOOO I'M SUPER HYPED FOR TWILIGHT PRINCESS HD

Cos 2 of those problems are instantly cured. The graphics are a massive improvement. Sure not WWHD awesomeness but damnnn they good enough to get me hyped. So yeah can't see what all the bitchin is about.....

How would you know about the tutorial if you never played the game/how would you know that you didn't like it?
