Yeah, I know they're going to incorporate a map into the Wii U Gamepad, and they showcased that you can scroll out a lot which gave a good idea of how much area there is going to be. My only fear is that if there's a lot of area, there better be an easy form of transport. I don't want half my experience to be running from point A to point B, that was one of the few if more than one flaws of Wind Waker, which they fixed in the HD remake.

My friend and I just beat Wind Waker again, and sailing around does kinda blow. Getting the triforce was the worst part of that game, with Tingle doing some big money hustlin.

But even if there wasn't a quick way to move around (I'm sure it won't be too bad, all Zelda games offer teleportation in some form or another), I'd enjoy it a lot more than Wind Waker, as all that was was a Great Sea. Maybe a random encounter with a big octo or some pirates here and there, but the space between islands was bland. If the new one's as open world and detailed as I'm hoping, then I'd be cool with just riding around checking stuff out. Skyrim status.

That's pretty much where i'm at as well. Also considering Nintendo now know from Wind Waker that people don't like wasting time going from place to place when there is nothing interesting on the journey. From what I read somewhere, the concept of having the islands so far apart was meant to make the game feel bigger and longer, but it just made it tedious and made me hate water. However, I do love the game for what it is. I wonder what kind of musical aspect they'll add to this game. I hope they bring back the Ocarina of Time, because I love playing notes on that one, especially if I could play the old songs from the old games.

Getting 100% on Wind Waker is the biggest bitch, but I did it once. Every island charted, every treasure chest, every piece of heart, every figurine (god damn). Wasn't too easy.

I didn't even think about the music. I really loved doing some button mashing/joystick toggling and shredding the axe as Mikau, dude rocks.



Carve my farewell song onto my grave... you can't tell me that doesn't rule

I 100%'d the gamecube version of Wind Waker. I told myself that for the Wii U version I wasn't going to bother. It was a great waste of time to fully finish the game, but man, never doing that again, but I found it worth it since I enjoyed the game so much.



^That was one of the instruments I absolutely loved.

Just wanna say I went into the last two floors of the Cave of Ordeals in Twilight with a quarter of a heart left and no potions, but I came out a true warrior

I once did the water temple on The Ocarina of Time...







...with no guide.


Just kidding. Who the **** can ever do that?

Mondo Bungle

There was one room in there that I was stuck on for years. One of the ones where you change the water level, and when it rises it lifts a block which you could go underneath. I never saw that until I watched a video

I have to say though, the water temple is worth the stress when you finally get to the boss, because that's one of my favorite boss fights in the game. that and the shadow temple are two of my favorite zelda temples ever made.
