Nintendo's latest consoles have been backwards compatible so I think it's safe to assume that the NX will be too, so it's probably best to wait for NX news at the very least and then decide whether to buy Wii U or NX.
>>341716690
I call it Breath of the WORLD which to me sounds a lot better.
>>341720103
>dlc
Nigger it's for people who already happen to own it, they didn't release it just for this
>>341719525
Depends how gimmicky the NX is and if the performance is better. I regret getting Twilight Princess for Wii. The motion controls sucked, except for bow aiming, and the performance was the same. I don't need stupid controller gimmicks anymore.
If the NX launch line up is barren except for BOTW it's better to get a refurbished or second hand WiiU and get the remaining games you want for cheap with Zelda.

Enemies literally have exclamation points over their heads when they're alerted, and you have a noise meter, a stealth walk, silent takedowns, and can mark enemies from far away with your scope like GZ.
>>341720694
Wow, welcome back 2004.
>>341720694
So does that make Link a memelord?
>>341720694
This real? Where's the rune alphabet?
Source.
>>341720583
>Or should i grab a WiiU off ebay for 150 bucks?
Well, that is pretty damn cheap, but it depends on your own economy of course. I mean, I like the games for Wii U myself but if you're only interested in a few games of the entire current Wii U library, it might be best to wait. Not much reason to get a console if you only want 3-4 games usually.
But I feel 150$ is a piss in the ocean if you got a decent income. Might want to look at the Wii U library perhaps and see if there's other games that might interest you, like Bayonetta or something.
So apparently anons are saying that Links eyes have the same RGB value as all of the blue and glowy shiekah tech found throughout the world, giving further proof that this Link isn't real but a clone or a robot. Anyone willing to test it in photoshop and see if it's true?
>>341720808
You can compare the runes to eachother and see it matches up.
>>341716690
>>341720694
You know, I'm fine with throwbacks to old memes like this. This is nice.

I have a PC too, though.

Skipped the Wii U, so I'm probably going to get the NX.
I'm sold 100% if it has backwards compatibility.
Also,you're not the Chosen One in BotW.
>>341721004
These eyes are a specific blue though. Wolf Link's eyes are a different color.
/r/ing punished link edit
>>341721073
I kinda hope Venom Link is like Windwaker Link, a guy who carves his own path into having the triforce of courage, instead of being a blood-related dork who gets handed shit for free.
Fuck the wait is going to kill me
If I buy a Wii U, how many Zelda games can I go through before this comes out? Including the HD remasters and the virtual console
>>341721004
This is the only Link that has Mako infused eyes tho
>>341716986
Me, hopefully the emulator works before it releases though.
On a side note, does Twilight Princess and Wind Waker get better? I've been playing both (just alternating between the two to see which grips me first) and they're both pretty meh so far though I know for a fact i've barely scratched the surface.
Twilight Princess i've just managed to turn Link back to a human after being a dog.
Wind Waker i'm at the first fort area after my sister got stolen from the bird.
The story just hasn't gripped me so far and the writing is so childish and one dimensional that i'm starting to question if it's a nostalgia thing with these games that I missed out on. What gives?
Anyway, which should I focus on and which is considered the best?
>>341716986
Even if I didn't have a Wii currently plonked on my desk I probably still wouldn't buy a Wii U.
I'm hoping CEMU gits good enough and graphics cards arms races settle down enough by next year to run the damn game and that the framerate isn't hardcoded to 30.
Otherwise I'd probably wait for more news about the NX.
>>341716690

I'm going to get the game. But fuck you Nintendo for making him right-handed again

Link is only ever a chosen one in the sense that he's the bravest guy around. Links aren't all literally guys named Link who happen to be selected by the Triforce because they wear green. They just happen to be the right man at the right time.
>>341721325
how is this anything like Skyrim?
>>341721004
Usually the other Links have darker shade of blue for his eyes. And they're usually darker, or more muted in color. At least they are in-game.
This Link's shade is unusually bright, almost a bright teal in color, and this was even something I noticed before this years E3, way back in 2014. No other Link has eyes quite like this one.
>>341721271
Practically all of them since this is pretty much a launch NX title, which is in March 2017.
Don't bother getting a Wii U for only Zelda. There are other games.

>>341721472
The combat looks so great in this game. With the variety of weapons and ways to storm bases and shit.
Can't fucking wait. NX can't come soon enough.
>>341721296
Play the older titles. The much older titles, like Link to the Past, Awakening, and the other gameboy games. There's OoT and Majora's Mask as well.
>>341721420
>I am Link, and so are you. He is the both of us.
>>341721231
Windwaker Link's speshul individuality was retconned with Skyward Sword and Hyrule Historia though.
Now he's just another incarnation of the hero's spirit, like the others.
>>341721117
Oh shit.
Wolf Link's eyes don't glow. Link is a fucking Shiekah robot.
>>341721117
Except their not.
>>341720794
The values for red and blue are different, though fucking who could see that with a bare eye. Even if they didn't have different values, the shading is entirely different. If links blue eyes, that have always been blue, were a sign that he was a sheikah magic clone, then wouldn't they glow brightly like all of the other magic in the game?
It's just a coincidence that blue magic looks good with the rest of the games colour palette.
>>341721271
With a WiiU, you will be able to play every single home console Zelda game except for Four Swords Adventure for Gamecube, though if you softmod it you could play it. You will also be able to play Minish Cap and the 2 DS Zelda games.
You will be missing out on the 3 GBC games and the 2 3DS games, though if you get/have a 3DS then with a WiiU you will be able to purchase every single Zelda save for Four Swords, Four Swords Adventure and the CD-I games.

>>341721560
Played Link to the Past, it was great. Might try out OoT and Majora's Mask after I complete one of these.
ANyway, what's the appeal of the games? So far they seem like oversimplified adventure games catered to children (not even shitposting, just my genuine honest opinion).
The new Zelda looks fantastic and I can see the appeal but I just don't see the appeal with Wind Waker or Twilight Princess. The story/writing is just so painfully elementary. The gameplay is fine though
>>341721296
TP picks up more after the water temple which is probably about 3 dungeons after where you're at, just because it gives you a bit more freedom and cuts out the tear gathering.
WW picks up more with actual dungeons since right now you're navigating a large stealth section with no actual combat.
In either case you havn't actually entered any real dungeons yet and have barely emerged from the tutorial so the core gameplay probably hasn't really had a chance to grip you.

Then maybe wait for NX details. If it isn't backwards compatible, definitely get a WII U.
Especially if you're just jumping in and haven't had to deal with the droughts, it has a lot of fantastic games you just can't play anywhere else.

I don't think you understand how color works.
When doing web correction, a difference of less than 20 total aberration is considered the same exact color. The difference in red is 10, the difference in blue is fucking 2, and that could be quantified by doing manual brightness adjust (which has the skin slightly darker than daylight) or having picked the wrong pixel of the eye on a compressed video to compare.
There's also the issue of Wolf Link's eyes being much darker but still blue - the same blue they were in Twilight Princess.
Also,
>their
They're.
>>341721296
Wind Waker has a steady increase. You're just before the area where it gets interesting. The fort area can be confusing as fuck but on repeat playthough you know how to be out of there in about 5 minutes.
Twilight Princess has a very slow boil to start the game, which is OK for first time play throughs but cripples repeats. The later dungeons make the game worthwhile but goddamn the first dungeon is boring and the second, while better, is quite tedious.
>>341721697
I haven't played any Zelda game past N64, I just couldn't give a fuck for the direction the games took. So I'm in the same boat, I don't understand their appeal either. Link Between Worlds looks interesting however.
Other games with the melancholic feeling I look for are Terranigma, Soul Blazer, and Alundra.
>>341721697
>the writing
there's your problem
these games were before the playstation generation made people think that having a deep and mature storyline in videogames was the most important factor.
All you do in these games is roam around, find secrets, explore dungeons, fight bosses, solve sidequests and that's it. Some of them do it better than others but storyline was never a focal point, even though some of them have really well done atmosphere conveyed through graphics, music and locations (see MM and WW for the two more obvious ones).
>>341721640
[cont]
You could also try emulating pretty much all the titles save for the 3DS games. Though I can definatly recommend getting a 3DS for the OoT and MM remakes alone.

skyrim was not the first game to do this, and in fact did this fucking horribly. Zelda dungeons blow skyrim's out of the water

Xenoblade X if you want a taste of what Nintendo x MonolithSoft can do with an open world, downside is the main storyline feels like a giant tutorial until 2/3rd of the game, so get Xenoblade Chronicles if you want story

Not that anon, but he could be a clone or a robot who goes beyond pre-retconned WW Link and becomes a hero and a 'real' human in a sense through his sheer will alone. Or I don't know, some cheesy shit like that.
Maybe that's what the spirit orbs are for? They contain the essence of the hero's spirit so that Venom Link can become something akin to the real heroes?
After all, when the monks give you an orb, he does absorb in into his chest rather than his eyepad tablet as if they becomes a part of him.

Games older than Skyrim have had larger open worlds. And Skyrims world is shit tier to navigate.

From the demo it looks like you place all of the waypoints yourself since you can alter and delete the various markers. They could have just been placed for player convenience during the demo.
>Occasioanlly raid a dungeon for loot
This is not Skyrim specific.
>Gotta be packing the correct gear based on weather conditions
Unless you are modding Skyrim doesn't do this. At best you dress for the enemies status effects which being mostly Draugr is almost always ice.
>looting
Also a really old convention.
>"go here go there" quest system
Not sure if this exists in BOTW.
>World literally dosen't care what you're doing
The world didn't care in Skyrim because it was halfassed and at best fed you a few lines from the guards. We've also only seen a slice of gameplay from the demo so we don't know how you impact the world.

thanks for the recommendations.
But anyway, I just realized MonHun Generations is coming out. With that, and games on other platforms I'm gonna be fine until Zelda arrives.
You fools, do you not remember the HYPE around MGS5, all that open world meant nothing in the grand scheme of things. People joke about falling for the open world meme but honestly ask yourself. What makes a Zelda game good?
Many people say Majoras Mask for its great atmosphere, compelling narrative and interesting quests all working with the 3 day time limit mechanic.
Ocarina of time for its great dungeons and great progression
This is made by the same director of Skyward Sword ffs. I appreciate them mixing up the formula but man did MGS5 get old and all the TECHNOLOGY people posted didnt mean anything in the grand scheme of things. All I see is an open world game so far with no interesting setting or story and fucking far cry towers.
Wait for it to come out.

>all the open world meant nothing in the grand scheme of things
except they already showed in the demo how the open world wasn't done just to check the open world meme box off the list. It's actually full with hand placed shit all fucking over.
Shit nigga, even the plateau looks amazing and it's a fraction of the entire map.
Not to mention they assuaged a lot of fears that MGSV fans may have had by supplying hours upon hours upon hours of gameplay.
Finally, one of the biggest downsides to MGSV was that it felt unfinished story wise with respect to the rest of the series; but Zelda has always had a relatively simple story, so fucking it up by not living up to previous titles is more difficult, not to mention it already looks like this story is going to be fucking kickass

Apparently the story is going to be so insane to the point where they had to remove ALL of the towns and the NPCs besides the old man.

Something's up.

Will you fucking retards stop with this bullshit? I want this screencapped when you all get blown the fuck out that Link is just literally Link. He's not a fucking robot, he's could be a Sheikah but that doesn't mean he's some kind of bullshit "Venom" Link.
Go ahead, screenshot this and fucking wait until the game comes out so it can get reposted a thousand times when you all get fucking destroyed. His eyes being the same color means LITERALLY fucking nothing. Before you bring up Venom it's a different case, because his eyes were a different color and there was actually other evidence besides eye color that had fuck all to do with the reason behind it.
Link's eyes were always fucking blue, this just goes a lot better with his shirt and the color palette of the game.
>>341723048
Goddamn.
All of those pillars apparently trying to keep him down.

The mgsv hype was based around quotable trailers, not 6 hours of treehouse. There obviously will be padding and downtime, comes with the territory, but after xenoblade x keeping me entertained for over 200 hours with shit to do I'm not too concerned
I swear to god if they dont make a NX + BoTW set i'll be mad

Man it seems all the ideas Miyamoto could not put into OoT are in this game.
>>341723236
wind direction isn't fixed to one compass point as well, check out the clouds

plus we saw that full plate armour that you can wear, guess you have to be careful about being zapped in that
>>341722813
I personally think of 5 years down the line, where ill be choosing which zelda game to replay. Will i want to play the open-world emphasized game which I already did everything in? or Wind waker. I honestly cant think of an open-world game I have ever wanted to replay

>>341721296
You should focus on which ever one has gripped you the most so far, you have barely played either of them.
Zelda games aren't about story so you shouldn't focus on that. They are game about exploration and adventure.
>>341723190
oh fug dis gonna be gud
>>341721420
No, every Link is a reincarnation of the Hero's spirit, with the exception of Wind Waker Link. Even then, KORL and Jabuun were discussing whether or not he was the Hero of Time, not if he was he was the spirit in general.
>>341723149
Have you bee reading up on any of the little tidbits Aonuma's been dropping in interviews, anon?
He's definitely trying to indicate that something is "off" with this particular Link.

for me, all Zelda games have had points at which I'm hooked, but before that I've found it hard to be interested.
OoT was the first that I ever completed, despite playing TP first when I got it with my Wii.
>>341723334
Yeah, I noticed this as well, but thanks for pointing it out.
Once I noticed it, I immediately knew that this meant the proper implementation of a weather system.

Go fuck yourself, retard.
Also his eyes didn't glow in fucking TP either. This means absolutely fucking nothing.
>>341723402
Trying to think that Zelda of all things would pull a Kojima-tier ruse is absurd. I don't think anyone else could even be that kind of absolute madman.
Slowpoke I know but I just noticed the Bokoblin have an exclamation point above their head when they notice you.
The MGS parallels are steadily increasing.
>>341723532
Wrong. It's Legend of Oblivion: The Zelda Scrolls.

Please make it happen Nintendo, it make for a legitimately emotional, dark and amazing nostalgia trip.

>>341723950
no, wolf link's eyes don't glow, since the amiibo is literally that wolf link from TP because of the convergence of timelines.
Only BotW Link's eyes glow because of TECHNOLOGY.

If this is true I will be so fucking happy and this will be my GOTY probably.

ok
>>341723950
Here, educate yourself
What if you guys are thinking this through all wrong?
Didn't the game mention that this is some sort of revived link?
Well, what if this link (whichever one it is) died some sort of brutal death. And in order to completely reanimate him, they imbued him with Sheikah TECHNOLOGY. He could be a cyborg.

Not in-game models.
They're a muted, dark blue color in the actual game.

It's like I'm talking to and underage anon who didn't know just how fucking insane Majora's Mask, Link's Awakening and the Wind Waker were for their time.
>>341724109
look at videos. Look at when they zoom out of the map.
They said that the Great Plateau, the E3 demo area and beginning of the game, is only 2% of the map. And that there is even more stuff off of the edges of te zoomed-out map they showed.
>>341723950
>Who else could even do something that ridiculous?
Takahashi and his minions over at MonolithSoft. The madman made Xenogears. Who knows how much influence MonolithSoft has had in this new game aside from the world design.
Being a skeleton in this game is suffering.

The Shiekah have been super technologically advanced since before when any of the games take place.
So what do you people think about Link being able to digitize himself? Aonuma even explicitly said Sheika abilities are technology and not magic.

>At a group Q&A with reporters on Sunday, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma was asked where the game fit into the franchise timeline. Aonuma said he didn’t want to say much about the story at the moment but said he’d stare a hint. He noted that that the t-shirt he was wearing showed the symbol for the Sheikah stones and that it was the same one from The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. (In Breath of the Wild, the reawakened Link uses a high-tech item called the “Sheikah slate”). Aonuma also reminded people that, at the start of this game, Link is told he’s been asleep for 100 years. “He teased: “You can decide what this means.”
>Link wakes up in the Shrine of resurrection
>There is only one timeline where a Link died.
>link is apparently mako infused now
You know what? Sure why the hell not. Dissidia cloud liked to say burn too. We even have black haired link too for the zack reference
>>341724239
He kind of digitizes himself to warp or rez at the resurrection towers.
>>341724119
That's what I'm thinking.
Breath of the Wild takes place in the "Hero is defeated" timeline.
The place you awake in is called the "Shrine of Resurrection." What's interesting is the fact that you wake up here, and the Hylian on the side spells "CARE UNIT."
In addition, the towers scattered around are called "Resurrection Towers." I'm certain that when you get a Game Over, you will wake up at one of these too.
You are the Link that was defeated, the Sheikah grabbed his body and placed it in stasis until they could develop technology that would bring him back to life. This is why you're being told to open your eyes, Zelda? doesn't know if you even can.In a way, this game is a resurrection for The Legend of Zelda, as well. It's like pottery.
>>341724137
Those games are not fucking "insane" by any stretch of the word.
"Just a dream" is a fucking age old trope, as is "End of the world" and "I'm fucking sailing forever, this is literally the most boring shit of all time."
And the art was an example, I didn't mean to say his eyes glow in TP or some shit.
>>341724195
Xenogears is literally just Evangelion the video game.
>>341724097
>Only BotW Link's eyes glow because of TECHNOLOGY
(Citation needed) fucker, his eyes glow because that's the art style and the way the game's palette is. There's not even really a glow so much as there is bloom on every fucking thing.
I swear you fuckers are gonna be assblasted when it's not your Dark Souls/MGSV TWEEEEST that you seem to be fucking wanting so badly.
>>341716690

WOLF LINK CONFIRMED
PREPARE TO PLAY THROUGH AMAZING WOLF LINK SECTIONS JUST LIKE THOSE THAT WERE DEFINITELY YOUR FAVORITE IN TWILIGHT PRINCESS!
>>341724314
That doesn't look any different from the warp songs in oot
>>341721296
Story isn't why you play Zelda because Nintendo is incapable or writing. I would say go further in Wind Waker though because the enemy AI as well as some of Link's gameplay mechanics are a precursor to Breath of the Wild. TP strips those away for a more Ocarina of Time experience and fails it.
>>341722325
We're gonna have the fight Ocarina was originally gonna have aren't we, where Ganon grows wumbo and you have to climb him, what else would all the climbing mechanics in the game be for.
>>341724426
its amiibo dlc you dunce he acts as dogmeat
>>341720318
They already said it won't be backwards compatible and neither will the new handheld.
>zelda with rpg elements
oh my, the me of 12 years ago would have been ecstatic
>>341724426
You're...damn far off senpai.
Wolf link is an amiibo bonus. nothing beyond that.
>>341721046
supposedly its on the side of the stone.
>>341724507
They never said that. Ever.
>>341724534
the me from 12 years ago would have been blown away because the only zelda game I played then was the game & watch version
>>341724390
I could just say that BoTW will be the "I, Robot" trope if you're going to summarize the games and their stories like that.
Either way, I know we're going to get something good out of the plot and that's all I care about.
I was on board with that Gerudo-raised Link theory before this year's E3 - but that doesn't mean I'm pissed about it not being a possibility anymore.

Thanks for letting us know that this bullshit "theory" has no ground coming from people like fucking you. I cannot WAIT for the release of this game to fucking blow this shit back in your faces.
>>341724812
I like Nintendo games and consider them to be the best publisher because most of their games are actually video games and not some bullshit movie/qte fest that's been happening, but you can't fucking act like Zelda is some literature masterpiece and call basic plots "insane" like it's something completely groundbreaking.

don't fucking buy a wii u at this point of time when the nx is around the corner
at worst you can get the wii u for clearance prices at retailers when they get the signal to clear out the stock, the same way nvidia cards like the 970 and 980ti got a price cut this week
at best you find out the nx is backwards compatible allowing you to play wii u games on it
