Latest Zelda Wind Waker HD Trailer Shows Off The Game’s New Elements

A new trailer for The Wind Waker HD combines several of the elements from previous trailers in an attempt to show all the updated features of the game. It starts out by showing comparisons of the Wii U version to old GameCube footage, then later demonstrates some of the differences in Hero mode as opposed to normal mode. The nearly three minute trailer also covers new features like Miiverse integration and faster sailing.

Several recent interviews with the game’s designer, Eiji Aonuma, have illuminated some behind-the-scenes elements of the title, such as its influence on the brand new Zelda game coming to Wii U. The Wind Waker HD will be released as part of a Wii U Deluxe bundle in just over a week, on September 20th.

    1. Fuck the stupid tablet controller piece of shit, look up-look down-look up-down, drag this shit, drag that shit, fuck that gimicky stupid-ass retarded conrtoller, i’ll just play on my pro controller how this masterpiece is meant to be played, for all of you who don’t have the pro controller, i highly suggest you buy it

      1. the white ones are only 35$ at best buy too. thats what i hate about nintendo they only care about gimmicks which = shovelware. the gamepad was exchanged for weak console no 3rd party and gimmicks. i hope the wii u sells gamecube status, so they learn there lesson. then the player will be focussed on and not casual bullcrap. no more wii fit bull crap.

              1. 3DS should’ve been alot more powerful, and 3D was not neccesary as you can see, even nintendo is droping it with the 2ds and almost there really are no games that are based around it anymore, as the matter of fact mario 3d land was the last one

      2. I second this. I’ve been telling people this game needs to be played with the pro controller. if pro controller wasn’t an option I would have skipped this remaster.

          1. not everybody wants to play the gimmicky way, just give me the fucking controller so i can play with out it being a big i pad.

          2. shut your dumbass up. I’ll play the damn game the way I want to play it. the fucking gamepad is a useless gimmick and not a controller. just like I paused the fucking game on the gamecube I’ll pause the fucking game on the wiiu. you got that, stupid clown.

        Can’t wait to play it on the gamepad!!!! Why would you not want all the gamepad features?

        1. ikr..? these are the kind of people who complain when nintendo makes some changes to the existing formula and they also bitch when there are no changes… weird.

          1. Changes to the formula, these are not changes to the formula, these are just ways to fuck up the game, like with the pikmin 3 you don’t have a map on the screen, you just have to look-up and down all the time, it’s retarded

            1. Agree with above posts I hope Wii U fails so Nintendo can take out the gimmicky ass gamepad and so they can learn there lesson not to give us shitty rehashes or shitty things like 3D or gamepad I’m mad about what Nintendo’s becoming

      4. dull shocker dull shocker dull shocker RETARD GAMER RETARD GAMER

        COMING UP NEXT WEEK THIS DUDE WILL TRY TO TELL US TWIN STICK FPS IS CORE AND THE AMAZING WII REMOTE ISNT

        IDIOT

      1. I hate how people believe that shit. I bet they didn’t mention what missing temples were used in other Zelda games. Its just a lazy excuse to give us less content

    1. The Biggest Nintendrone Suckass Kissass Washrag Tool Sheep Competition

      wow this gaeme even betr the originel one i didnt think was posible! now yuo can sail faster n there is hero mode n miigration. i kmow i have more fun playin specialie now that has the h and the d

      thank u aonuma i m glad i sold my ps3 for a wiiu

          1. no retard i have done exactly what you were doing but instead not lame. your probably another person doing what ive done to try to make people im alts, unless you havnt seen me do that then it doesnt matter.

            1. Wow..mind blown…dude your fucking wacked. Im not trolling, to old to troll, but what i am doing is remembering this Gem.

              Im not like you lil brats that go on here for attention, trying to be the King Troll or to use peoples avatars and names. You might think your bad Ice but your cheap trix wouldnt of worked back in the GOLDEN AGE…you kid would of been tossed around the arcades like a fish in jail

  1. I would love to see a story about dark toon link and the fairy queen…..maybe dark link kidnapps the queen Fairy and turns her evil,

  2. Sorry for spamming, im old and about to go to work, just rememebering this great title…

    Been gaming since……Pong

        1. its ok hahah, the old days were also better, nintendo and games overall. arcades were so fun and every game wasnt a lame uninspired fps. i grew up with an n64 and had a nes, the nes was so good because we tried so hard to make the thing work, even of we had the n64, which had some of the best games ever i think. also in the last few years i got to play the snes and it has some incredible games.

          people on here i cant stand though…. i always thought the ps3 fanboys were the worst but some of these nintendo fanboys really set the bar.

          1. I love Nintendo……as an older gamer, the nes is the greatest gaming console EVER….go play the hardest Ps3 game and then go plug in a NES……your thumbs will bleed, literally.

            Sorry to beef Ice, but I cant stand trolls. Trolls werent around in the 80/90s

            1. this was a comment i wrote on youtube like yesterday
              “if his was an article about Bushnell: sony is becoming irrelevant, this video would have more dislikes than likes. faggot fanboys, lets thumbs down the video because rich talked about a news story that had something negative about sony. uuhhhh his whole video sucked just because he talked about an article bad about sony.
              oh look it didint happen to bad news about nintendo, or would it had for the xbox. hhmmmmm do we have a fanboy winner??”

              another one
              “yeah its funny how much xbox fanboys are graphic whores, thats probably why they love their dull franchises. at least sony has more variety, not just fps getting tired franchises. oh yeah and fable…. thats gone down to shit. way to go.”

              these comments are on reviewtechusa’s videos.

              as you can see i just hate fanboys. if you go to his channel you will see how bad they are in the comments.

  3. Looks good, but im gonna stick to my Gc version and get the New Zelda for 3DS instead. If i want nostalgia trip i play original, in other words time to move forward.

      1. He said he was sticking with the game cube version. Hardly destruction of old games if he kept his gamecube. (as did I)

        Although I’m getting WW HD, If people have the original, I don’t really think the HD is THAT much better.

        1. I take it you haven’t played it? If you had the hands on experience with it some of us did you wouldn’t be saying that. It is THAT much better.

  4. Same old game from 10 years ago. At least they could have upped the polygon count on the characters and environments but it exactly the same models. Only thing that changed is the resolution (just add the letters “HD” to the same old game). Same old primitive sound effects Nintendo has been using for the past 30 years. Same old primitive particle/water effects. But the babies will get excited for this one.

    1. Lmao!! Exactly the nintensheep believe anything that Nintendo says. Truth is its the same game and nothing special was added. If Nintendo said “we can’t use online in our games because bla bla bla” the fanboys would be ok with it. They accept anything smh

  5. I hope it offer “off screen play.” It’s one of the reasons I love the gamepad, playing console games anywhere without a TV (or if the TV is in use)

  6. they should have made hero mode a master quest style playthrough with different dungeon puzzles and completely mirror the normal mode. wasted opportunity. who the fuck worked on this remaster anyway. clowns.

  7. some fulltime platform fanboys are truly dedicated and even regulary come to nintendo sites to bash. well done kids. you’re just awesome. i count on you.

    i personally don’t want another highendtech nintendo. there are other consoles for that, you can buy those if that’s what’s important to you. the wiiu and the 3ds are actually my all time favourite nintendo machines. i can play earthbound on the wiiu touchpad, windwaker now as well as mario and tekken, soon watchdogs etc. the touchpad controller is the best thing ever. combined with the vc stuff it’s a dream come true.
    i think nintendos next machine will be a hybrid between handheld and homeconsole. the wiiu just paves the way for this.

    3ds and wiiu are getting unified with miiverse and eshop integration. with the next ninty console you will be able to connect it to your telly and play at home, or take it with you wherever you go. all signs point in that direction.

    topic: i love this game. this has been the best trailer this far. i think it’ll make a lot of people excited about the game. i played it twice but i can’t wait for this version.

  8. why not remake OOT and MM in hd as a collection. the 2 best 3d zeldas that aged. seriously those would be flying off shelves and people who left nintendo after n64 will probably buy a wii u just for that.

    yet they remake WW, a game that looks just as good as it did back then, if not looks better than this one. the new WW looks like your looking threw a cloud at times.

    remake games that need one nintendo, OOT and MM are the only games i want a hd remake off. it would be like playing it all over again for the first time almost.

    1. I would love an HD remaster of any 3D Zelda. To say this HD version looks worse than the original is ridiculous. Even if you hate the game, the whole series, or Nintendo altogether, its crystal clear this new version looks better. I think the original still looks great but this version is far smoother looking and eye appealing.

    2. Because they know dumb fanboys would buy it anyway. If they released another NEW super Mario bros U, now with 2 NEW LEVELS form the original for $60 the nintensheep would be all over that. That’s how dumb fanboys are

    3. Yeah, but think about it. WW was chosen because it has aged well. Nintendo wanted to (re)release a Zelda game for Wii U to tie us over while we wait for The Wii U’s Original Zelda release (which is ways away from release). WW was the fastest Zelda game Nintendo had that could be prettied up just in time to release it at this point in time. A complete reboot of OoT or MM would require a complete overhaul that would take just as long to complete as an original Zelda. Every asset would have to be remade while WW has most of its assets reused and polished. WWHD is only an appetizer for the main course that is Zelda Wii U.

  9. Look at those top two comment chains… Why are they even here if they hate Nintendo so much?

    Call us fanboys if you must, but at the end of the day, our dedication will be rewarded.

    1. I feel your frustration. It gets tiresome coming here every day and seeing the same losers bashing Nintendo and saying that us Nintendo fans need diapers (yes iceazeama, I’m talking about you). They’re probably the same kids who were (or still are) bullies in school, because their home life is so wrecked.

  10. I don’t know about gimmick issue but I am glad I don’t have to pause every second to look at the map and change my items. If the old way of playing is still an option, I don’t think there is any reason to complain really. “The gamepad made the Wii U less powerfull than PS4!” Well, I think the Wii U would still be as powerfull as it is today even if it didn’t come with a gamepad. Nintendo does its thing and Sony does theirs. No point in both being the same thing. That’s why XBone comes with a Kinect. You know, there are Legos and Megablocks. Both essentially the same, but still very different. So yeah, don’t like something, vote with your dollar. CAPITALISM! O_0
