Upgrade System

The Upgrade System is a new feature that makes it's first appearance in Skyward Sword.

This system allows Link to take items that he already has, and enhance them using the Collection screen. For example, if Link has acquired all of the necessary materials, Link's old Wooden Shield is turned into a stronger, more durable Banded Shield.

Not only can Link upgrade his shields, but also his items. Not many of the upgrades have been revealed, but we do know that Link can take his Slingshot, and remodel it into a Spreadshot.

This is a unique way of keeping items from becoming un-used, and unloved, like they have once or twice in previous Zelda titles.

The Upgrade System is one of the many new, revolutionary up-sides to the up-coming title, Skyward Sword.
