The triforce was in the first two games used as a mystical plot device, and all we know is that it was some kind of genie-in-a-bottle object with powerfull properties. Then A Link to the Past came about and changed all of that. In fact, the japanese title of ALttP is "The Triforce of the...

No, but I found a video of the credits that's has the problem to some extent, allthough not as bad as in my example. It starts at 24:10. Note how jagged the animation is at times, yet it's by far as bad as it was in my case. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qL2ZZxiJYGg What video cable/settings...

I recently completed the game, but the full-screen scenery behind the end credits had some framerate issues when the "camera" is sweeping over it. What basically happens is that the framerate is uneven, as it oscilliates/pulsates between slow and fast in a jagging manner. When the camera is...

My complaints about the game are minor, but enough to keep it from perfect score (I gave 9.25). The only signifficant complaint I have relates to the overall structure of the game. The game is laid out as several successive "missions" throughout the three overworld regions. This is not bad, but...

The final Iwata Asks article of the Skyward Sword section is now available, and not surprisingly, it's Miyamoto's turn this time around. Rather than speaking about the game in general, they speak more about the process around gamedesign and game development using a creative process. It's a quite...

It is known that a picture says more than tousand words, so I decided to mix together a small illustration of my first-impressions of various of the games in the franchise. Do note that I indeed have exaggerated quite a lot on some of them, so please don't take it to seriously.

I have done a somewhat in-depth comparison of the fan-translated japanese version and the official english version of the Skyward Sword introduction subtitles, and I found differences big enough to make it worthwile to write a topic about. Both versions are to some degree equal. Generally...

I assume "Ultimate Power" from the partally revealed intro should well correspond with the power of the triforce, in which case your statement is likely to be more or less correct. Only time will tell, a time of 51 days to be exact.

Please, people, when posting threads, please don't put what you intend to warn about in the title. Some examples: SPOILERS! Skyward Sword Goron Location? SPOILERS! Mole Mitts Returning to Skyward Sword SPOILERS! Siren Realm- Re-named "Silent Realm" I mean, the spoiler prefix is used as...

Tomorrow I will attempt to run the two bits of audio through a spectrum analyzer to see if the sound image has any signifficant differences too. I have a slight suspicion that the one from Skyward Sword may have a bit more low-pass, allthough that may either be due to the sligth pitch difference...

It's still not 100% the same, allthough it's much closer. The Skyward Sword one is still a bit lower-pitched (starts off about 1 and 3/4th of a semitone lower than the TP Dinafols sound). What I used as comparasion was from 05:45 of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCvUES99k-c and from...

It's not exactly the same, but they are very similar. The TP version of the sound is more high-pitched and faster, which makes it stand out more. Allthough the version in Skyward Sword may be the same sound file played at a slower rate, it has been ajusted to better fit the style of the game...

The poll is lacking one option: "Got it, but didn't use it". I even forgot it was there for the later parts of the game! The curent option is exlusively targeted at 100% runs, and thus doesn't include all cases.

The link is here: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2011/09/26/spoiled-the-legend-of-zelda-wind-waker.aspx Allthough I fould qute a bit of the rest of the game to be tedious to some extent, I feel the ending really made up for it. So what do you think?
