SKYWARD SWORD

Yes! Native Wii Zelda Game! And It Has WMP!

Thoughts and discussion here!

I think it looks really cool, can't wait to try it out!

Just have to beat Spirit Tracks first...^_^'

Even my Zelda h8r friend wants it. That's how cool it is.

Even my family is happy for it!

My mom who is not a gamer AT ALL (she hates them actually) watched the Skyward Sword trailer at E3 with me and she said it looks way awesome

lol, my mom's not a gamer either. (though she does love her Jewel Quest game, she stole my DS)

Me and sis are the only ones who know about the game, and sis is highly disappointed.

I was disappointed by it at first, but I think it'll kinda be like MM, how people were all weirded out by the whole time limit thing, and it ended up not as bad. Kinda like WW where they were all like O_o woah because of the graphics.

It's the Zelda formula!

Every system will usually have 2 titles

The first being VERY popular:
NES: Zelda 1 (The original)
SNES: A Link to the Past (To classic!)
N64: Ocarina of Time (Nough said)
GB: Link's Awakening (They even released a DX!)
GBA: FourSwords (It came with aLttp! AWESOME!)

The second being not so much:
NES: The Adventure of Link (This one took some getting use to for most!)
SNES: BS Zelda Ancient Stone Tablets (Wasn't even released in America! Of course the fact that the SNES add on it was on wasn't release here either doesn't help!)
N64: Majora's Mask (Remains a "Fan Only" game to this day. No one else enjoys it!)
GB: Oracle series (You can't say one with out the other, and yet no one but fans were willing to buy both of them. It was always one of the other!)
GBA: Minish Cap (As great of a game as it was, it couldn't compare to FourSwords simply due to the fact that FourSwords had aLttP ported with it!)

And then you have the GameCube and Wii which together some how managed to break the whole system.

The first GameCube Zelda was an Ocarina of Time remake, which actually wasn't that popular! How does that work! Then the first legit title came out, Windwaker, and people actually had to have a warm up time! (Though people warmed up to it faster than they did MM) And then the second title being FourSword's Adventure which most people just overlooked! Then we get a third title duel released for the GC and Wii making it the first Wii game too! And it was amazing!!

So, although the gamecube didn't follow the rules. So far it looks like the Wii is, having it's first title be amazing. Which may place Skyward Sword as the awkward Second title. But since Twilight Princess was the first duel release title, and the only one to carry from an older gen system to a newer gen system upon release, we really can't say if the Wii is sticking to the formula, or if it is carrying over the GC's crazyness!

My dad's a Zelda gamer. He beat the original one and got me into Zelda. lol.

My mom plays Phoenix Wright. XD

OBJECTION! THIS CURRENT PLAYER IS A MOTHER AND KNOWS NOTHING OF SPICKY HAIR HEROES! AND SO MR. WRIGHT, YOUR DEFENSE NOW MEANS NOTHING!

HOLD IT! BUT WITH THE RELEASE OF THE NEW ZELDA GAME, THE WHOLE FAMILY WILL BECOME EXCITED FOR THE HEROIC DEEDS OF ONE MR. LINK!

I can honestly say that i'm not as excited about this as i was for twilight princess. I liked twilight princess for it's "darker" plot and character development. Since nintendo's been witholding much info about story, and only released one character besides link, i'm not all that psyched about it. The graphics relly aren't impressing me that much either...(i'm still disappointed after seeing the teaser pic last year depict a TP style link.) If they hadn't given me the impression that the graphics would be, "an improved version of twilight princess's." as mr. myamoto put it, then i think i'd kinda like the new art style. But c'mon, changing it halfway through developement? Now THAT'S cruel. (holy crap, long post)

Ahhhh Nintendo, truely a cruel mistress!

Screw it, i just want a new console game. Any game where I can arrow hearts to fences im totally in. Since im such a big fan of WW the graphics are great for me. The gameplay looks amazingly cool, so im pumped. Just wish 2011 would role around sooner.

Tomorrow's the first, 3 more months to go!

I'm glad that Nintendo is withholding info on SS. TP was overhyped and because of it, lots of fans felt very disappointed after beating it. I wasn't one of them but still. I did feel that TP was lacking something.

With little info, I feel that there isn't anything to ruin about the game, since there's little that we've seen to ruin for us.

While I can completely agree with your point I don't think TP was overhyped.

I frequent a lot of forums. It was way overhyped. :y

The end result wasn't bad by any means, but it certainly was not what everyone thought it to be.

Well, okay. I don't frequent a lot of forums. (not allowed to strictly speaking). I don't know what I was expecting the game to be but it certainly blew me away.

Well, they changed a lot from the Beta to what we got at launch. We were expecting lots of things that we didn't get, and that led to lots of disappointment, so Nintendo probably learned from that and is saying as little as they possibly can about Skyward Sword.

Ooh. That explains it, I didn't see the Beta.

It's a good thing you didn't. A lot of sweet stuff was removed from the game that you'd probably miss.

For example, You know how in TP, Armaghoma was fought in the Temple of Time, and she hung on the ceiling? Well, in the Beta, she chased you all over the Sacred Grove.

I see what you mean but I for one, don't think I'd want that chasing me all around.
