The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD - Launch Trailer (Nintendo Switch) 

W opinion

same

Same, it’s up there with OoT TP and Botw for me (still haven’t played Totk)

Theres a reason why Zelda games are released every half a decade.. its up to you and your generation if the latest one is your favorite.

Right? I went through this whole thing thinking "Oh, the new players are going to hate this trailer."

It's not like you can really glean any information from it though, if you've never played the game. First-time watchers will most likely remember nothing from this trailer.

Game is ten years old aside from the very small changes the game is exactly the same. You think there are Zelda fans who never heard of this game or even at least seen a trailer? Thats like showing the trailer for skyrim and hope not to spoil anything lol

It's actually a little better than the last few trailers but it does show a lot. No context but still a lot. Like there's one image that keeps popping up in trailers that looks cool but is literally almost the final shot of the game. Like "Get pumped... for the credits". But I don't really remember trailers much myself and on balance I'm hoping it's enough to show how cool and diverse the game really is. Because on the interwebs the meme is "worst zelda, bad zelda, so boring, you keep revisiting the same places, so linear, motion controls" and these trailers do kind of overwhelm the uninformed with a glimpse of the incredible diversity of enemy types and activities and story elements you get in this game that you can't get in any other Zelda to date. Every 3D Zelda is unique and there's so much this game has to offer that the negative memes online don't convey so it's unfortunate the marketing has to bombard you with all this imagery and coolness to try to drown out the noise.

Its like a big spoiler

There's nothing to explore in the sky lol

@@amesoeurs There are a lot of islands in the Sky

Botw is actually the odd one out in this series and in my opinion where it went wrong. Zelda should of never went open world.

@@joemama-cf7sj do you not think? The idea was there and the scope of the game is really quite vast, but shrines and the mythical 4 were just too similar. If botw2 has upgrades (as we’ve seen) with a more Zelda production around temple navigation, it’d be hard to beat. Like ocarina of time but a much larger scale - I might play that tonight, what a classic!

@@rupertmastin2603 don't get me wrong I got Botw just recently like 3 weeks ago and ya I like it but at the same time its just wayyyy too big for nothing. It lacks direction but not freedom if that makes sense. I like that Botw is a type of game that you can make very hard or very easy or somewhere in between. I just hope Botw 2 is more condensed with more focus on direction. Hunting for heart pieces is what I hope for the most.

How are you going to compare this to breath of the wild ,do you compare your grandma to your sister too?same concept because zeldas family too otherwise you wouldn’t even play this game if it didn’t remind you of a time every thing was better because if it doesn’t maybe you just need to keep playing and I promise one day you’ll want to go back

@@joemama-cf7sj what have you been smoking? Zeldas a timeless game trying to keep up it’s going to get always weird before it gets great and most of the time my opinion all zeldas are great in their own ways

The Wii version is good for nostalgia I guess? Thats it though

@UCAB7gskUY99dkOnIfItMAGA same botw was my first Zelda game I want to play more

they probs did it early, since it launches in Australia tomorrow (timezones wahoo)

This is for the UK

@@chewybits3662 I mean I know I’m from it but we still got two days

I 100% done this game on the wii.. Al be getting it on HD that's for sure...

Probably cuz skyward sword is the only big console zelda before botw. In canon yea she existed the whole time, but from a developers pov they only finalised her design AFTER ww, tp, oot and such

Wind Waker was also hated when it came out.

@Thesamurai1999 and that too for being to childish looking but I'd say an alright story in terms of future zelda games.

I think it's launching a day early, but everyone else will be getting it before the US

No

Technically it is if you play it on wii and Wii U

lol good luck caused games published by nintendo barely on sale

It's nice to see Buffy speak still used decades later. It really changed the landscape of how teens spoke in late 90s and early noughts.

done in the style of Link's Awakening... I'm down for that!

Yup. They think they can get away with just about anything nowadays, and they're right because they have an army of twenty-somethings with nostalgia goggles glued to their faces willing to pay up for just about anything.

@@debleb166 they're just putting stuff out.i never played it. So I might buy it later. It's not like rubbish though.

I.. am NOT doing that

Only 60€ for a 10 year old remake that costed 50€ with an exclusive golden controller.

@@NintenDub No, you’re right. It’s not rubbish, it’s quite brilliant and new players get to experience it for the first time. Just a joke at people going bonkers for the same things they played 10 years ago.

But I've never played this, Curry's UK has this for 38.00 seems like a steal too me, I'm looking forward too this game

i dont care, zelda is worth it :D and this was never meant to be a 3 port, this was always meant to be a single, but, this was never meant to be a 3 port, just a single and nintendo want fans to get to know this story and these people before botw 2 comes out coz they are connected ;) but, as for the 3 port, we will get a tripple or double zelda pack soon enough, just hang in there a bit longer :D

This game is 60 FPS while the Original is 30 FPS, the loading times are halfed, lots of quality of life improvements, better graphics, you were saying?

This is a so much higher effort release than the Mario 3D All-Star collection, though. Those were essentially virtual console releases with no improvements besides the rendering resolution. This is an actual remaster, with more meaningful improvements than e.g. Twilight Princess HD had. Also got to point out that Link's Awakening, the remake of a Game Boy game, was a full-price release too.

See fanboys are already justifying the 60€ price just because it has 60fps and some minor tweaks.

Bro the graphics are good they don’t even need to be improved

@@lonqucrit5201 Blind fanboy

No, it looks fine. Skyward Sword had a specifically un-realistic style that was meant to look like a painting. They upscaled it to HD, which was all they could do without drastically changing the game's intended style.

saturated?? there's.. 2 games? now 3. how many different mario games are there on switch? 10?

@@artyocean3595 compare the 3 Zelda games to the pile of Pokémons

@@supermanial.2045 exactly, zelda definitely isn't the saturated series on the switch by far!

@@artyocean3595 absolutely correct If anything I’m sure many are open to more Zelda on switch, especially those asking for wind water and twilight princess HD ports 👀

I think someone’s salty they didn’t get Super Mario Odyssey 2
