| The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD | Nintendo (Retro Studios;Nintendo EAD) | 2013 | Link is a young boy who lives with his grandmother on the Outset Island, one of the many small islands lost amidst the waters of the Great Sea. On his tenth birthday, Link encounters a giant bird carrying a girl. Link rescues the girl, but as a result his own sister is taken away by the bird. The unknown girl is a pirate captain named Tetra, who agrees to help Link find and rescue his sister. During the course of their journey the two realize that a powerful, legendary evil is active again, and must find a way to stop him. The Wind Waker is the tenth installment in the Zelda series. Like its predecessors, it is an action game with puzzle-solving and light role-playing elements. Basic gameplay mechanics are similar to those found in Ocarina of Time: Link explored 3D outdoor areas and dungeons, fighting enemies and occasionally solving environmental puzzles. An addition to the combat system is the ability to parry at specific times, which is needed to overcome armored foes. Another new feature is picking up and using some of the weapons wielded by the enemies. Similarly to previous games, Link can use tools such as bow and arrow, boomerang, and bombs. Link needs to sail through the Great Sea in order to travel to other islands. He uses a baton called the Wind Waker to change wind direction by conducting it and producing melodies. The Wind Waker is also used for teleportation and puzzle-solving purposes. Link can use wind currents to glide and access remote areas. Visually, the game utilizes cel-shaded graphics to create a cartoon-like appearance. The characters' bodily proportions and facial features are not realistic, complementing the style. Link's big eyes, in particular, also have a gameplay-related function, giving clues to the player by looking at specific items needed to solve puzzles.*** [100]*** [12]*** [35] | labelimagesubject |

| The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild | Retro Studios (Retro Studios;Nintendo EAD 3) | 2017 | It is reported that the smallest dungeon in the game is as large and Ocarina's Hyrule Field. The larger dungeons will actually be divided into multiple sub dungeons and take more than 2 hours to complete. Each dungeon will offer 'a unique gameplay experience'. Kind of like each dungeon being a completely new Zelda game. The game is expected to utilize all 25 GB of available storage on the BluRay. The graphics will be 1080p. Well more than 200 people divided into multiple teams have been working on this game since 2010. There will be online features line Miiverse and in-game tip sharing, butv no online multiplayer. Its built on a custom engine, as expected. As of 2012-09-14, the tech demos and screenshots previously seen by the public are not representative of the game except for the image of an adult Link playing an ocarina in the forest. Much of the game's design has been based on features of the tablet controller. Some tablet controller features themselves were suggested by members of the Zelda Wii-U team. If the team does as they say, then this game will take advantage of NFC, 6-axis motion sensors, touchscreen, camera, handwriting recognition, microphone, stereo speakers, rumble features.***[media=youtube]c5_OZCQElW4[/media] This demo shown to the public does not represent the game that is being developed. (this video has been extensively restored from shaky, partially obscured shot of the original being played on an HD screen. While it cannot possibly be 100% accurate, it represents the original very well and contributes no significant errors.) | labelimageminimize |
