Can the wiiu even do the resolution of those screen shots?

[Madrun Badrun]

I could get though SS. So this is wait and see for me.  If it is open world and then they hold your hand all the time with Navi and notifications about help options I'm out.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

ANDREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEX

hyyyyyyyyyyyyyypppppppppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

He's so kawaii

[Rahxephon91]

Other developers make open world games. It's meet with cynacism.

Nintendo makes one of thier stale series open world. It's all hype.

Fuckin nintendofegs

[TVC15]

I can't lie: this looked awesome.

[Tasty]

You guys ready for the QTE's in those boss fights swaggerjacked off God of War?

Better than the motion controls QTEs they had before.

woodland butch is a great look for Link

[cool breeze]

woodland butch is a great look for Link

that might be zelda.  nintendo likes to crib from popular media for zelda games and the latest reference would be frozen.

[Tasty]

The lava glows red on mount doom tonight
Not a bokoblin to be seen

[Phoenix Dark]

I agree, that looks like Zelda or a female character. Maybe you have to save Zelda and Link.

[Phoenix Dark]

Maybe it's Marin from Link's Awakening.


best 2D Zelda

[Tasty]

Dunno brehs, that chest looks pretty flat.

[archie4208]

Skyrim Zelda. My dream game has come true at last.

Skyrim with level design and playable combat. 

[Great Rumbler]

Dunno brehs, that chest looks pretty flat.

This is Japan we're talking about.

[Rufus]

I'll get it when they're mothballing the Wii U and they can be had for [lowest price].

[hampster]

[SantaC]

celshaded again. I was right.

[MCD]

Is the camera fixed?

[TakingBackSunday]

Considering Aonuma outright stated the game wasn't going to be realistic several months ago, I don't think you deserve acclaim dude

[Tasty]

celshaded again. I was right.

It's way more like Skyward Sword than Wind Waker, I was right.

[magus]

between this thread and the other thread full of people swalloving the cum of super mario 3d land crumbs i had no idea thebore was so full of closet nintendo fans

i'm appalled, appalled i tell ya

[CatsCatsCats]

Shit looks fucking awesome.


Still not gonna fuck with a Wii u.

[Cerveza mas fina]

This looks pretty boring, whats the hype, seen better stuff a million times already.

[Madrun Badrun]

Yes looks boring from that 2 minute trailer that obviously is totally indicative of the gameplay. 

[MCD]

I don't mind them half assing it as long as they release it by next year. From the video, I could see this taking 3 more years at the very least.

Fuckin nintendofegs

Who treats open-world games with cynicism - Farcry 3/4, Skyrim, GTAV, Saint's Row 3/4, Batman: Arkham Knight, Crackdown 3, Infamout: Second Son, Watch Dogs, Assassin's Creed series - besides the voices in your head? Many Zelda fans have been clamoring for this for years, and many had hoped that it was what Skyward Sword was, what, with its apparent emphasis in not in being able to tell dungeons from world exploration apart. Nintendo fans have been fairly consistent with this issue, and Zelda fans especially, have been wishing for this to happen for a long time, in order to have the adventurer spirit of the original rather than the linear, coddled structure in recent titles.

Seriously. In all facets, your post is incorrect.

[Madrun Badrun]

Ya check your facets

[Bebpo]

Love the art but you *know* the Zelda team isn't going to be able to pull this thing together properly.

Yup.  I have zero faith Nintendo can pull off a wrpg or even Xenoblade system open-world traversal HD game.  Will have it's good parts and be ultimately flawed and tedious just like every console Zelda for the last 10 years.  I'll give it a shot.

[Trent Dole]

Been burned too many times on Zeruda to get hyped but I'll keep an eye on this all the same.

[magus]

Ya check your facets

done!

[Madrun Badrun]

Conserving energy

really oscar? i had absolutelyyyyyyyyyy no ideaaaaaaaa, thank you... thank you! for enlightening me with your infinite wisdom and knowledge!

truth to be told i had to check how the word was spelled and was pretty confused when writing facet on google image gave me a bunch of shirtless man's

[close]

[Himu]

What was wrong with using facet in that post?

[Steve Contra]

[Madrun Badrun]

I'm not liking that because I'm gay;  I'm liking that for the humorous context.

[TakingBackSunday]

Fuck it, I hyped.  Skyward Sword's dungeons were great and I loved the sidequests.  ALBW toyed with this open world/any dungeon order idea on a minuscule scale and did very well with it.

The biggest concern I have is what they're actually doing with controls and combat, and difficulty level.

[Madrun Badrun]

Ya controls; SS was such a mess.  Swimming

[Himu]

Assuming this carries off what they accomplished in A Link Between Worlds, we have something to look forward to.

[TakingBackSunday]

Ya controls; SS was such a mess.  Swimming

I didn't hate Skyward Sword's controls for sword play or for the bow control.  But yeah swimming and vine-swinging was rough

[Himu]

Skepticism is healthy. Don't worry about it.

[Tasty]

Fuck it, I hyped.  Skyward Sword's dungeons were great and I loved the sidequests.

The only dungeon in SS I'd call "great" is Ancient Cistern.

[TakingBackSunday]

Ah, I don't agree with that.  I think Skyview, Mining Facility, Cistern, and Sandship were all really fun.  TP's dungeons were better overall but I liked that each dungeon had a unique attribute to them.  Sandship's timeshift stones especially.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Yes looks boring from that 2 minute trailer that obviously is totally indicative of the gameplay.

It kind of is though cause you already saw x amount of Zelda tropes return

Big baddy with flashy bits where you can lock on to shoot with your bow thats upgradeable etc.

[Diunx]

Female Link?

[Cerveza mas fina]

Which tropes?

That game will be dope as hell.

[Tasty]

This must be what zero self awareness looks like.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Andrex, I am asking for specifics.

I know it's hard for you to think when Oscar posts a funny cause your blood rushes down.

[Himu]

Which tropes?

That game will be dope as hell.

old adventurer who slipped up and is now in some unknown land. it's action adventure trope 101.

[Rahxephon91]

It's written by Naughty Dog. Of course it's going to have tropes. Did you not play the last 4 games they made on the PS3?

spoiler (click to show/hide)

pshhh so will Zelda

[close]

[Cerveza mas fina]

I wasn't talking about story tropes because then we might dismiss all games.

I was referring to the fact that even this short trailer already looked like its settling in to gameplay known since 1998 in Zelda.

You can almost hear some annoying critter popping up every 10 min to tell you how to travel through the world, or that you can only hold 100 rupees.

[magus]

Guys... Guys...

Both Zelda and uncharted are boring as fuck

[Tasty]

the main difference is that Naughty Dog is actually snuffing out Uncharted after this one

I've heard this one before. I give it a gen.

[Cerveza mas fina]

I can't wait for the old jokes, as you said Uncharted is built on tropes.

[Rahxephon91]

I can't think of a series where they came out and said this is the last one and it was.

Except Xenosaga and well it was the last one for obvious reasons.

[Tasty]

when naughty dog tells this one, it usually sticks, at least as far as they're concerned.  they walked away from crash and jak, both of which sold about as well, can't see why they won't walk away from this one when they've already got their next one lined up.

For some reason I thought U3 was supposed to be the last one, they made a new IP after and everything. Until then ND's schtick had been to make an IP at the start of a console's life and make a couple sequels until the next gen hits and start over. Going back to Uncharted is a weird move to me, even if it is to "finish" it off.

the lack of unkarted clearly threw everything out of whack.  but seriously, what with uncharted not being a mega-hit seller beyond their usual, ND's typical MO, and the fact that the uncharted series' creative leads all left, i have no trouble believing this is it for the franchise and ND at the very least.

Unkarted?

Uncharted seems to be the only thing Sony has that can drum up serious hype, from where I stand. It's their prestige franchise.

I guess TLOU could take its place if they start doing sequels to that.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Gran Turismo

[Tasty]

if hype doesn't translate into sales, it's not worth much.  last of us got just as much if not more critical praise, and it sold better than any of the uncharted games to boot.

So why are we getting U4 and not TLOU2?
