@Haru17 Well, there is a chance that the E3 Wii U build was an old version, and maybe they managed to improve the draw distance in the meantime. I'm not counting on it, but that could've happened.
The Kinda Funny video shows the same guardian and encampment as the Treehouse Switch demo. However, it shows for the first time how rain affects Link's arrows.
I don't think any of us have talked about HD rumble in the game, have we? I noticed it wasn't listed as a feature in that list of differences between the Wii U and Switch versions, but it's definitely a feature, according to this video I was watching. The guy says he had drowned in a swamp, and noticed the sensation of bubbles rolling up his hands as he was doing so. He said he did a couple times afterward to make sure.
So that along with the higher resolution and higher quality sounds should really heighten the sense of immersion, huh?
@Nicolai if true (and i think it will be) this is a really great add! Another reason to pick up Switch version! March 3rd can't come soon enough! This HD rumble seems fantastic, i'm super excited to test it!
@NinChocolate, Hmm, I'll have to try this on my SD flat screen. I remember playing New Super Mario Bros. U on an old CRT way back when it came out, and the color-bleeding made it seem more like Super Mario World. It was quite nice.
@Dezzy: I also found Eldin and Central Hyrule and Lanayru. The others look like they say Necluda, Altum, and Hebra.
It's weird how there's no name over the desert, or other areas.
@Octane, where did you find this? The url says siliconera, but I can't find it on their website. How official is it? Oh, it's from Amazon Japan. They also uploaded a bunch of screenshots. It must be official, I guess.
As for Altum and Necluda, I could just be reading it wrong, since its all so smudgy. Altum could also be Altun, and Necluda could also be Nelluda or Nellvda, and I'm not very confident that the last letter is an A. but Altum and Necluda were my first impressions, and I'm sticking by them. Other C's and A's in the map look like that, all the U's are unusually pointed, etc.
Such poor handwriting combined with all of these smudges; sure makes everything seem mysterious, huh?
@Nicolai Yeah, there's definitely stuff missing. No Hyrule Castle or Great Plateau, the regions in the north and south-west don't have names, neither does Lake Hylia in the south, assuming that is what it's called. At first I didn't even notice Altum, didn't expect a separate region behind Death Mountain, so maybe there will be even more regions.
There's also a weird square structure in the north...
People have already allocated areas to these names, but I'll put them in spoiler tags in case anyone doesn't want to know them; Hebra is the snowy region in the north-west (Snowhead / Snowpeak). Necluda is the region from the first E3 reveal (with Link overlooking Twin Peaks on the left and Death Mountain on the right). Altum is the area with the ''sky'' bridge from the last trailer, at least, from what I've read. Looks to be a coniferous ''forest'' (a very sparse forest in that case).
