With "The Wind Waker" out in less than a month, are you thrilled that Nintendo's long running series is coming to the Gamecube, have you reserved the game (and when did you reserve it?) and do you think it will be the best game for the 'cube?

Or alternatively, do you think its Cel-shaded graphics will ruin it?

What the hell are you on about? The Wind Waker is a 3D game!

I heard the guy in game talking about the bonus disks, he couldnt remember that master quest was originally released on the 64DD. I was going to pitch in with the answer, but i couldnt really be bothered, it was funnier watching him trying to remember its name.

Not "everyone"!

I pre-ordered mine - with money - back in EARLY-January - just after we heard that the European release-date would be 3rd May 2003.


HAR-HAR-HAR! :P

To be honest, I agree with Shinokie and Rand, I too didn't really like the graphics, but now that I look at it now, maybe the Cel-shading will help the game have a magical feel like a true RPG or Adventure game.

P.S A 3D version on the 'cube would also be highly appreciated, that way, we can see which is better.

Getting it.
Thanks to an unexpected GAD. Was getting a little worried, too, as I have no money.

If the extra disc isn't with it, I'll eat the floor.

I Just bought the Windwaker game. I too thought that the new cell-shaded graphics would ruin the game. At first, i thought it did. However just like anything new it takes some getting used to. As I progressed in the game I found it to be just as enjoyable as the older game and just as fun. The game brought me great joy and I highly recommend it.

I got my copy per ordered, and i cant wait.

Ill admit when i first saw the cel shaded graphics i was a bit down, because i was wantting amazing graphics lol, but now the cel shading has been improved, and ive seen it running with out the fuzzyness, it looks amazing.

I think it will capture the "magic" zelda games have always had.

Sayign that, i still want to see a true 3D zelda, but im sure this game WILL be the best game on the GC, and one of all time.
