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.

Are we ever going to get some kind of remake of the NES/SNES Zelda games?
This announcement is a big disappointment to me. Why not give us glorified versions of the games that actually made this franchise the powerhouse that it is? It is the 35th anniversary. Skyward Sword is a very bad Zelda game. We deserve better.

Skyward Sword is not bad. It's a great game and doesn't deserve to be bashed like this.

How can you play a game that good and in all seriousness think it's bad? Like how is this even possible? I don't get it. It baffles me. Seriously, there is not a single game that got generally good or great reception that I consider bad. Most people like it and find it at least good, so it is good. Otherwise most people wouldn't like it. It's just illogical to believe a so highly polished game with so good level design, enemy variety and design, so well written characters and dialogue, such a well structured and well written story as well as so creative and inventive items and puzzles and so many ideas with, if you like motion controls, sometimes annoying but mostly extremely fun combat and so much detail in the beautiful environments with such a great artstyle.

Skyward Sword can be just not your thing. I for example didn't really like the first Little Nightmares, but I still see a really good game there, because it shows quality in it's mechanics, atmosphere and level design.

But to ligitimately think that Skyward Sword is a bad game, as if it was unplayable, had bad writing, boring and uninspired invironments and dungeons. No, that's not the case. That's why it got 93 on Metacritic, because most people think it's really good.

Same with Super Mario Sunshine. Some people hate it just because it's so different from SM64 or because they don't like fludd. But it's still a great game (92 on Metacritic btw). Phantom Hourglass also constantly gets hate for one aspect, the Temple of the Oceanking. But that doesn't change that it's generally a very good game (90 on Metacritic).

Point is, your way of thinking is so outlandish for me, that I can't understand it at all. You could start claiming microtransactions are consumer friendly and I would understand that standpoint better.

Also to say "we deserve better", is very entitled. The anouncement made me happy and it's exactly what I wanted. If I hadn't gotten what I wanted I wouldn't go and start claiming that what we are getting is bad and nobody wants it because I don't want it.
