Sorry I'm not trying to start an argument or be rude or anything, but I can't understand how someone can rush through an entire game (especially one of this quality) in one or two sittings. Does the thought of taking things slow and savouring the experience really not appeal to you? I can't imagine anything worse than waiting months or years for a game like this then rushing through it in a couple of days, but that's just me. Obviously whatever turns you on go for it, I'm just trying to understand.

Best final battle in any Mario game IMO. Heart pounding stuff, especially in the second playthrough. I hope the one in 3D World is as good.

This looks really lovely. I take it the six that are included (+ ALBW) are the only Collector's edition guides available? Anyone know what the missing extras are like, are they worth getting them individually for?

Personally I love the 3D effect in 3D World and especially ALBW, and enjoyed collecting star bits and using the blue stars with the Wii remote pointer in Galaxy.

I can't think of anything worse than Nintendo games being released on PS4/Xbone

Great advertising in the shopping centres! They need to use more of this though, most amazing thing ever...

I don't get it?

OMG, THAT music during the Streetpass battles! :-) 3 hours in and I'm two dungeons down.

I like Reggie but he's just a walking press release these days. Still, I'm sure they've got a good software line up planned.

Thanks, that's re-assuring. I'd have liked a few cutscenes here and there but never mind

So is it short? It sounds like a speedrun from one short dungeon to another with a few obstacles in between.

Just finished a second dungeon, I have a bad feeling this game's main storyline is very short, really loving it though. Must admit I sort of miss finding dungeon items in the actual dungeon but oh well. Nerdiest nitpick ever but I wish the sound effect for getting a heart container was the console version one rather than the same sound that plays when you get any item. How come I can only use one item at a time though, does a second button become available down the line?

It's just the three flowers? Didn't think there was anything else

Yeah I got it from him. That is probably what it does, I've never used it. Still seems odd to have an empty space in the inventory.

It's only three trades, that's pretty short compared to other Zelda games.

Taking it veeerry slowly, really savouring everything. 4 playthroughs and I've just finished the first dungeon. Really enjoyed it especially 'escaping'. Production values are really good. Some sound effects I'm not so keen on. Is it explained later what the monster guts are for or should I have figured it out by now? No spoilers pls. Back to basics Zelda, all action, great stuff!!

Magic armour. You get it at Windfall at the end of the short trading sequence. You lose rupees instead of hearts when hit.

The intro story is in the (crap) title sequence!? Oops, will watch it next time.

You should buy the extra Streetpass games, they're really good. Hoping Nintendo release another batch at some point down the line.

Every time I see the word Karaoke, I now think of Shibata pronouncing it KARA-o-KÉ

Really quick question, I just met Ravio and noticed Majora's Mask on the wall. Was that there before he turned up at the start of the game? Really liking it so far. 60fps is glorious, makes such a difference. Wish they'd updated the 'secret' jingle though, sounds really out of place.

No they put that on the next page in the HD version. Maybe it's nothing then, just looks a little odd

Just about to put it down but wanted to check, am I missing an item? Middle row, far right?

This game is simply a masterpiece, easily the best Zelda game IMO. I forgot just how many secrets there are in this game, and so many sidequests! Far more organic and interesting than the gratitude crystal rubbish in Skyward Sword, that felt so tacked on and cheap. The pirate theme with all the treasure maps etc is inspired. I'm in love all over again. What an absolute gem of a game. I really hope Nintendo spending time with this again has inspired them for Zelda U.

I'm not really sure to be honest, seems a shame to start a new one when a 2 day break on the other one would have been enough but oh well
