Perhaps they changed too much, making the game less enjoyable to people who played it before.

Well, judging by a quote on the review of that cash in, nothing changed. This is a score you'd expect when you barely change anything.

But graphics aside, the game plays the same as it ever did -- most certainly a good thing.

That's always the peril with remakes, change too much and you lose your fanbase, change nothing and it's not worth buying to anyone.

Sounds nothing more than the logic a fanboy would use to justify their purchase. I'm sure many Sony and Microsoft fanboys feel the same about their respective console's games. Nintendo's games are amazing, but to say that their quality of gaming is above everything else on the market is laughable.

 

I'm not saying everything else is terrible or bad in comparison with Nintendo, I'm just saying that Nintendo can make their games over priced and get away with it because they have always been known to release extremely high quality games and they know they have fan loyalty. It's the same reason apple can over price all their products- because they know they have fan loyalty.

Well, that's not necessarily true. The original Resident Evil was a D-grade cheesy horror flick, and the remake became one of those popcorn flicks that you'd watch with your loved one while cuddling up. (Like those nights we used to have) It depends on how much work the developer puts in.

Also nintendo advertise it, it didn't turn into a mgs3d/mgshdpack situation,

konami so silly. You can get this one game, or these 18 games, but we're only going to advertise the 18 game pack, because it's not on a nintendo console.

Sounds like effective brainwashing. It seems to have worked on most of the people on this forum. Most likely because of how desperate we are for new Wii U games.

It is very strange they charged 40 for game and wario, and the more casual games, yet they charged 60 for wwhd, and ... actually i'm not sure they charged 60 for any other first party game here yet, apart form in actual gamestops since they overprice the hell out of all their games.

I think they charged that much because they knew they could, and get away with it.

 

It's like when Miyamoto made me buy star fox 3d, saying if it sells well enough we'll get a new one.

Izuzubat or whatever Aonuma? said it's just a game to get people off their backs about the new zeldo they're working on, and they wanted to do a cartoon graphic game but people obviously want a realistic hd zeldo for christ sake, going cartoony would be the worst move they could make for the console, zledo itself would be fine with it though.

And Star Fox is still the same price as it was at launch. But it's fine to bend over because of Nintendo's "quality" games, apparently. I will never understand the mindset of gamers these days. Personally, I would love nothing more than to see a realistic HD Zelda game to show off the power of the Wii U, but if they went for a more cartoony art style, that wouldn't bother me either.

cartoons are kiddy,

If zeldo you has blood it'll be "hardcore".

That's how it works.

WWHD is rated E10+ for animated blood, as is SS. Pretty hardcore games.

Nobody is forcing you to buy these games so I don't understand why you are so bitter about it.

[Waller]

only nintendo can charge full price for an old game because their games are of a much higher quality than any others on the market.

 

Lol, no they aren't, especially when talking about 3D Zelda which has been nothing but disappointments ever since they decided to stick to the horrible Ocarina of Time open world formula, where they just add space for the sake of space.

 

The combat system is pretty bad as well.

That is highly debatable.

 

And I am not complaining, I'm just wondering why he is so bitter about it all simply out of curiosity.

By the way, I noticed at one point in the game (before I beat dungeon 2) I had 500 rupees in my wallet. Did they ditch wallet upgrades? If so, I'm a happy camper cause man I hate it when I can't carry anymore rupees.

Exactly. Thank you. I'm leaving my thoughts, he's replying because he feels some type of way. That's his fault.

Nope. Wallet upgrades are still present.

you can still upgrade your wallet check your tingle chart in the map menu for the locations.

This thread has become hilarious, the shenanigans. I dont think there is any way to deny windwaker hd is anything but a cheap cash grab.

The quality of the title, game, and in comparison to other remakes of lesser quality, doesnt actually adress the argument at hand. Arguing wwhd is not a 'cheap cash in' because its head and shoulders above other horrible hd remakes, or even better than good hd remakes is an informal fallacy.

The simple fact of the matter is, it was very cheap to make, as windwaker already existed, the large majority of the work was already done, it took only 6 months (time is money) and its being sold for full price, rather than a price more in line with what it cost to make.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Apparently because it's Zelda, it's okay. It's biased. I don't work that way. I think all HD bundles/compilations are lazy cash grabs, because that's exactly what they are. The difference is that at least other HD bundles come with several games, so it's not as bad as this. Still, I'd rather have new games. I don't know why people continue to throw their money at these things.

no, it's okay because there's nothing like the game on the system, or any other system.
