Urgh!! Playing this is screwing with my mind after only playing the Wii version.

 

Everything is back to front!

 

Why was it changed from GCN to Wii anyway?

 

"Immersion" since most people are right handed so they made Link right handed. Apparently this messed up a ton of stuff and it was easier to mirror everything then to rebuild it.

I'm kind of glad that I barely remember Twilight Princess. I don't even know what the dungeons are other than the obligatory water one and the cool sky one.

 

I do remember the spinner being awesome but underutilised.

 

Also, Google Maps have change the street view guy to Link.

I'm the same. I've only ever played through it the once.

 

I remember some of the dungeon settings ( forest, sky, snow, water fire etc. ) but I can't remember anything about the puzzles or fights within them.

 

I've got a clear schedule over the weekend, so i'll be looking to put some serious time into it.

I just couldn't get my head round the fact that due to me only playing the Wii version before it is all flipped on this haha.

 

Also, its a a bit strange that after playing something like Witcher 3 this game doesn't look amazing. Sure, I know its just an upgraded port. I'm sure i'll get used to it though.

 

It has been so long since I originally played the game that apart from the beginning bit it will feel all new. I'm looking forward to sinking some hours into it :D

The one thing that really hit me while playing yesterday was just how awful Links animations are. The way he runs is flat out hilarious. :D

This is my big gripe, in the videos we've seen of Zelda WiiU his animation is still shoddy!

Yeah, the one they showed at the Game Awards where he was running looked awful by modern day standards. I think it's because a lot, if not most, western developed games use motion capture for this kind of stuff now, so we used to seeing more realistic movements in a lot of games.

And this is exactly what they should be doing with Zelda! It'll only add to the immersion!

No one playing Hero Mode then?

 

I am :D

 

It's mirrored like the Wii version, you take more damage, which stacks with the Ganondorf Amiibo, and no hearts drop.

 

Ah I was wondering about that.

 

Had decided to go media blackout on info on the game to see if any possible changes (if any) might surprise me.

 

I had expected it to be flipped to left handed Link like the GC version (which I never played) but noticed when I started playing it was right handed Link like he Wii version (which I had played).

 

Before I read here finding out it is just for Hero mode I was thinking maybe more people played it on the Wii so they kept it right handed, haha.

 

 

Also made an Unboxing video with the kids :D

Put a few hours into this now and I'm on my way to the third temple. I have to say, I'm finding the whole experience rather dull and very boring.

 

The handling of Epona is dreadful. I thought the guys on Gaf and various podcasts were exaggerating when they said the handling was awful but I'm certainly in agreement with them. I swear I never had this much trouble with controlling her in the Wii version. I'm not surprised they were harping on about horse controls when they briefly showed Zelda Wii U.

Picked this up today, such a joy to go through this again. Already put 5 hours in and absolutely loving it. The graphics really are amazing, even if I do kind of miss the blurryness of the Wii version, I feel it added an extra something to the atmosphere. Nevertheless, so hyped for Zelda U and would love to see a Skyward Sword remake in the same vain as this.
