Another review out, and it's from German gaming rag GamePro.

Some website posted:

The latest of the Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild reviews comes in from a German outlet, GamePro which awarded the game a whopping 94/100 which is amazing considering the same outlet gave The Witcher 3 a 92/100.

This Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild review score makes it the 2nd highest rated game from GamePro with the #1 title being Grand Theft Auto IV.

Or, if you have a Wii U, you can probably just save $400 and deal with the game in 720p.

I tried to get a refurbished Wii U from Nintendo's online store but it wouldn't take my card and they don't accept PayPal. And what loving year does Nintendo live in that they won't accept PayPal?!

I guess I can wait a month or two to play Nintendo's anime version of Skyrim.

The world where you're supposed to use Nintendo's Ebay store if you want to use paypal. 'cause Nintendo is weird like that. Also different inventories, the paypal store still had the black wiimotion plus wiimote and nunchuk in stock"

Reddit / Zelda and it should be at the top of the page. There are spoilers in the thread though. I avoided anything major, but be warned.

Just watched a few minutes of a twitch streamer on Wii U' and listened to one of the tracks from the soundtrack. So PUMPED. Also, leaving thread till after I've been playing Friday :) see you all on the other side!

gently caress now I have to go through the rest of this week trying to tell myself not to listen to the soundtrack.

I've always found listening to the soundtrack enhances the anticipation and I enjoy the final product more because it's familiar, but now contextualized. Like watching the LOTR movies for the first time, after hearing the score, was a magical experience.

There is from the screen shots I saw they are called "hero [insert clothing here]" I haven't seen the tunic, but the hat is the same hat that we've known through the years and the trousers are OoT white.

Looks like the assets for all the items from the game have been pulled and there is Multiple green tunics.

I don't know if there is a BotW specific one, but it looks like there's a bunch of different game's green tunic styles represented in this game.

No yeah I know, saw a dingdong streamer break NDA to show that the archer link amiibo can net you OoT Link's pantyhose and from the first leaks I know there's an ALttP and Fierce Deity set, but is there a BoTW-specific set?

hey zelda thread, should try to finish skyward sword by friday? i've had it for years and only recently ripped the disc (late last year) started playing through it on dolphin with a real wiimote. i am up to the desert mines area which i believe, going by zelda tradition, is like super early and just before i get the master sword? or this is another wind waker situation where there's only like 2 dungeons left?

thing is i keep getting really annoyed by the constant hand holding that really brings the games pace to a crawl. and how annoying it is to fight correctly.

should i persist? yay/nay

Ancient Cistern is an excellent dungeon. Definitely my favorite in Skyward Sword. And best boss music (even if it was used with Moldarach first) before Ghirahim's multiple boss tracks.

Worth doing Lanayru as well; the Time Stones mechanic in that is terrific fun.
