TheWindWaker

I got to a certain point on the wii version where I knew what to do but the awkward controls simply wouldn't allow me to do it. I couldn't proceed and it was sad...

"Wow, no comments yet... why not be the first?"
Ok!

Game shark, game genie... In some ways beta quest on Zelda 64 (and levitating) was so magical and mysterious. It seemed to reveal all possibilities, such as actually seeking the Triforce. For Smash on Wii, it lead to a whole realm of creative community that was, admittedly, very exhilarating to approach, however late in the game I may have wandered in.
However, I do agree with the majority that an online competitive community should not be corrupted in such a way, and especially not so close to the release of the game. MK8 is thriving, balanced, and rewarding to those who are skilled enough to win. That's what competition is all about!
Breaking into the Wii U is likely inevitable, but perhaps it will come at a time when there are no more system updates, Mario Kart 8 is considered retro, and everyone is focused on the latest and greatest Nintendo console.

No Zelda villains have yet been confirmed for smash bros... perhaps Ganondorf will be accompanied by Ghirahim this time!

Very impressive! And nostalgic!

Thanks for the info!
It would seem that his story can simply be known from his actions.
He's not a villain, although he seek power. He wants to fight the greater evil, but he's going to do it his way. His realm extends beyond dreamland, so he would be a big fish in a small pond there. He sees the big picture, and will even fight Kirby to maintain that it remains intact.
I like him more now! Maybe I'll give him another shot in this next installment!

Let's get a Mischief Makers remake!

So he's a blue Kirby with a mask? What's his story? (never played his game...)

I've never played a Monster Hunter and after watching that, I still have no idea what it is about. I'm thinking a realistic pokemon?

Also... @hcfwesker you are so right! I disabled adblocker to support the site, but I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing JT over there. I'm thinking, "What did I do to deserve this?"

So THAT's how you all sound over at Nintendo Life. I'll have to change the way I hear you in my head when I read articles!

Dreams realized at this moment.

Do we know yet about that old-school Zelda moment? Is it a mini-game?

This looks great! I love all the timelines mashing together!

Hey, did you notice... sounds like the Wind Waker is playing familiar tunes, such as Saria's Song from OoT. Looks like the Wind Waker got a new wielder and a new repertoire!

Go for it, Zelda!

The roster keep getting bigger and bigger! I wonder how many, if any, characters will not be revealed until the game is released? Surely they are saving some surprises for us to discover on our own!

@Tsurii897 I think our purple buttons are "sleek." There's no changing a childhood and to me purple buttons say snes!

Rock on Nintendo! Thanks for keepin' it real!

@Gioku Oh cool! I can't wait to see it in my own two hands!

So funny! Plus... it looks like maybe we DO have a cover now! Look at the top of the article at the game profile!

@smikey Thanks! Yeah, I'm on the U.S. east coast so 4pm would work great if I didn't have anything going on. My hope is that a Nintendo Life tourney will be more enjoyable than getting smoked by Japan's super-pros every time!

So how do you know who wins? By who has the most points at the end? (I don't play much online.)

Ha I crave the real smash.

This looks fun! It's always nice to see the series manifest in a different format!

I'm so glad Koji Kondo will be featured in this series. The way that he utilizes theme and variation is brilliant! His are iconic compositions that are recognized and loved by so many.

@Caryslan Yeah! They could do so much with alt costumes if they only would! Like if Sonic had his new Sonic Boom design, or even a Tails skin. They have alot of room to really shake things up!

@miss_dark Thanks to your comment, I just skimmed the video rather than watch the whole thing. Because you're right: I want to save some for my own discovery! It is hard to not look though

It seems as though Nintendo realized with ZSS that they have a character in their lineup who appeals to "mature" audiences and can compete with the abundance of similar content found on other consoles. For instance, when I picked up Mass Effect 3 for Wii U (which of course was on other consoles before Nintendo) I noticed that all the female characters have the same "body type" as ZSS does now. I suspect that they are highlighting ZSS this time around to show the world that they can be just as edgy as other brands.

@PvtOttobot @ChessboardMan I think the reason they decided to hold off on the Wii U version is for people, like myself, who had no intention of getting the 3DS version. However, because summer is so close and winter feels so far away, I will end up getting both versions simply because I am ready to play some smash bros. I wonder how many people will buy both that would have only bought the Wii U version? That's my guess on their reasoning.
