Re: Feature: The Zelda: Twilight Princess HD Fan Project That's Taking On Nintendo At Its Own Game

Now before you compare the official TP HD...

The official Twilight Princess HD will run on the limitations and features of the Wii U hardware. Nintendo and Tantalus will be adding gamepad support, amiibo support, miiverse support, and whatever unannounced features they'll be adding which will use some of the Wii U's processing power.

Also the E3 Tech demo? It's a confined demo. Of course it can run better than a full fledge game that requires more variables running on the background. (See Watchdogs in-game reveal trailer, The Witcher 3 trailer, and some other AAA games that didn't live up when they were released to their reveal trailer)

It could also mean that they are using different game designs and/or engines which will have different performances on the Wii U hardware. I don't think Nintendo is remaking TP HD from the ground up.
