nintendo attempts digital foundry with windwaker WiiU

the difference looks huge. 

Can't wait to set sail again. Looks good :)

I just replayed this on the Gamecube a couple years ago... beating it like 3 or 4 times I don't really feel excited for it at the moment. Maybe I'll need to wait a while to play it once again. Can someone tell me how many new features have been added to the game? Maybe it's worth reliving it a 5th time. :Prubber-chicken

No fault on you man but it speaks about how much misinformation is being spread about this remake that you can frequent a forum like this but not know the new features.

-The whole game can be played in first person but sword combat is still third.

-Sailing is faster and you don't need to use the Wind Waker after completing first dungeon

-Hero mode makes the game much harder.

-Triforce fetch quest is greatly improved with only 3 of the 8 charts needing to be translated

Those are just a few other than full 1920x1080 visuals

This concerns me. I am going to be playing through the Wind Waker for the first time and I want to make sure I get the full Wind Waker experience. I do not mind minor cosmetic changes to remakes (like a save anywhere feature in a game that did not previously have one) but are they taking stuff out of the game?

In the original you had to find 8 charts and get tingle to translate all 8 of them. It was boring and tiresome since it had you sailing around the whole world just to do one thing. In the remake you only have to have tingle translate 3 of the 8, and the last 5 can simply be taken without that much work or being translated. It sounds like it makes a 2-3 hour boring experience a faster, 1-1.5 hour experience

I think the GameCube version still looks really good. Though, now that I see it in motion, I'm not sure how I feel about all that bloom. That's a lot of bloom. meetroid8

Well you could have simply googled the things I mentioned and discovered for yourself. But no you don't have to use the WW to sail, you can get an item after the first dungeon to make the winds go where you want them to and make you sail faster.

Also, Hero Mode isn't anything like you said, its a brand new mode with more enemies, tougher enemies, and less chances to get hearts to increase your health.

I imagine you can do everything in first person then it zooms back to third when you press the sword button, then back in when you want.
