A prequel to Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and just about every other main series game, set to be released sometime this year, no real confirmed date, but likely Christmas time. We've talked about it here and there, but it deserves it's own thread. All in all, looks very promising. Much more refined Wii controls, instead of the "tacked-on" controls of Twilight Princess, and a realisticly-proportioned but cel-shaded style, similar to Wind Waker. I'm pretty pumped, how about you?

The main villain looks like a villain side kick... he must be pretty bad@ss to go about looking like that. Man, I look forward for duels with Darknuts...

My username is derived from Twilight Princess. My avatar has been some sort of Skyward Sword concept art for about two years. I've been following this game since before it was officially announced. So to answer your silly question...

OF COURSE I'M FRIKIN EXCITED!

I never saw that coming!












Ontopic: Yes, it looks awesome.

could be fun.

I've always loved the console zelda games. I've never actually beaten OoT, I dunno why, but I've beaten Majora's Mask and it was amazing, then I beat Windwaker 3 times. I loved windwaker, and to see that they're using a windwaker art style makes me excited. I'm not sure I'd like seeing the wiimote on the screen all the time, hopefully that's just for demo purposes.

One of the producers has stated that the graphics style is a homage to Impressionist works. Seeing how that's my favorite type of art work, and the fact it gives backstory to OoT, I'm especially excited for this game.

I just remembered something that could ruin the game if it appears;

All joking aside, I doubt he'll appear actually. He's as likely to appear as Skull Kid.

Sorry Link, if you want this plot device of little consequence, you must pay 2000 rupees! Tingle Tingle Kooloo Limpah!

TBH I enjoy Tingle. What a G.

Almost a week left! Glad to once again see the main title actually have more relevance to the game!

My younger brother was able to convince my parents to pre-order it. Seeing how I'm currently in college, I'll probably only get to play it over Thanksgiving Break before winter session kicks in.

This.Game.Is.Amazing.
The new sword mechanics is very fun! The combat has become very dynamic and I don't think it'll get boring anytime soon. I'm currently at the second dungeon.

That's exciting to hear. I'm going to have to wait to get it for now. I don't have the time for a zelda game at the moment. But glad to see you're enjoying it.

I'm going to try to play as much of it as I can over Thanksgiving Break. After OoT, it's my favorite one so far.

So far so good. The enemies is this game are much harder to defeat than in the past. Skulltulas are the worst.

And what is it with transvestite villains in video games? It's kind of a cliche, now.

Skulltulas are a pain in the @$$ at first, but once you get the dungeon's item, they become child's play.

I just reach that good'ol 3/6 section. I got a taste of the Silence Realm today.

Warning!
There have been several reports of a game ending glitch, that I have been an unfortunate victim of.

The glitch has been confirmed by Nintendo to be caused by talking to Golo (a Goron) in Lanayru Desert before completing the two other parts of the branching quest but after finishing a quest for a plot relevant character (you'll know who it is when you get there).

Avoid speaking to him and continue on with the other parts of the branching quest if you accidentally start in Lanayru Desert. If you haven't gotten to this quest yet, save Lanayru for last to avoid this altogether when you do get there.

It is likely that the 1.1 print of the game will not have this problem. If you happen to get the game and see this message next year, your game probably has been fixed and you shouldn't worry about it. It's such a shame that Nintendo can't patch games via WiFi yet. Hopefully that changes with the Wii U.
