Default Zelda WiiU screens

I don't believe I've been this excited for a game in a very, very long time.





I've been a die-hard LoZ fan for basically my entire life.


It's kinda like this. Except from my weener.

I may end up picking up a Wii U just for this game.

I also. The only reason I don't have one yet is the lack of a "halo" game. This may be the game that pushes me into it, although I hate buying a console just for one game.

But I do it anyway with every console that comes out.

Also make sure you pick up Mario Kart 8. It's quite fantastic. It's surprisingly complex, but still fun and enjoyable for less-serious gamers. They did a good job of evening out the rubber-banding from Kart Wii, items are a bit more balanced, karts and bikes are balanced.. it's good stuff.

The HD remake of Wind Waker was also glorious. Viewing distances are way further, you can see islands way off in the distance and tell what they are, and they fixed all the "lame" stuff about WW, there's a new sail that lets you go faster, and you don't have to manually change the wind, and you don't need to translate nearly as many maps--you just find the shards now.

Nintendo has all of my love.

Also, the ability to just play on the gamepad is hugely underrated I think. I use it quite often.

It's a bit of a shame that the WiiU hasn't really picked up steam.. It's a fantastic console. It's less powerful than the others, but still runs most of its games at as high or higher resolution/FPS than the big guns. Also, the gamepad style of the system is the only "next gen" console that has anything truly "next gen" about it besides mediocre hardware improvements, better sharing, and brand-new waggle controls.

Not trying to fanboy it up here.. Nintendo's art style may not appeal to everyone, and I may end up picking up an xbone as well for some halo action. but basically what I'm saying is I'm amped for Zelda, and I think the WiiU deserves far more love than it gets.

I purchased a wii u like 2 or 3 days after the zelda video was shown at E3. Got Mario Kart 8, it is awesome and it will aggravate the living hell out of you if you play online. You are never safe, never, no matter how far ahead you are.

I heard about this, it looks really good but nothing beats Ocarina and Majoras Mask. Majoras Mask is really the most underrated Zelda game.
