:frogsiren: TABLE OF CONTENTS THEME SONG 1 :frogsiren:


:frogsiren: TABLE OF CONTENTS THEME SONG 2 (after Episode 38) :frogsiren:
Your Computer with the Thread Theme Song





Everyone knows this game! It’s Wind Waker! Why would it need an introduction? Well, actually, I never played it :saddowns: A year or so back, this was ported to the Wii Woo with fancy-shmancy polished graphics and a buttery-smooth framerate.

Yes, this is a blind LP. No spoilers at all. It’s also quite literally the first thing I’ve ever played on my fancy new Wii U. Like, outside of setting up system settings, I haven’t used it for anything. The blindest of LPs!



Joining me for this foray is Vicas, Kuvo, and Panzer. We probably won’t be aiming for complete-and-utter 100%, since I’ve heard this game becomes a bit of a time-sink. I’ll probably leave it up to their judgment if it looks like I’m shuffling toward an obnoxious segment along those lines. Should things drag for too long, I’ll make use of some fancy editing or do things outside of a recording.

*After* the first session, there will be much higher quality videos! Due to a technical snag mid-session, the saved video was stream quality :( It’s fine, visually, but it’s not at all close to what we’ll see in later videos.

The episode banner links to Youtube, and the sword/shield icon on the right is to a hosted download! Right-click, and choose save-as to grab that stuff from my site! Not doing dual-audio, since it’s kinda pointless for a game without any real talky-bits.

I love this game, even if it could seriously use more things to do while traveling between islands.

Off to a good start as is!

I never actually played a Zelda game and most LPs here expect you're already familiar with the stuff so this seems like a perfect way to experience it.

You get used to it. I don't
even see the code. All I see
is Ipecac, Scapular, Polyphemus...


My first contact with this game was a McDonald's crappy demo station thing in the play area. It was set up to reset the Gamecubes after X amount of time had passed, you know, to let other kids play instead of hogging it forever, you rear end. There was barely any playtime to be had after the lengthy-rear end intro. I'm pretty sure there were no memory cards for saving either. I don't know why they even bothered.

I later rented it twice and beat it, and it's my favorite Zelda game ever. :3: Totally getting this version when I get a WiiU.

This is one of my favorite games from my youth, and I'm so excited! It's not my favorite Zelda, but I do prefer it to Ocarina of Time, which really hasn't aged well in my opinion. I don't have a WiiU (yet), but I've heard good things about this remake.

I wanna point out that you can get a sword lesson before you're required to get a sword, but even if you do get a sword lesson early (and it's the exact same sword lesson you get when you're supposed to get the sword), you still have to get a sword lesson just before you earn the sword.

I fought the lava, and the lava won.
I got the Wii U just for this game. I kept it for Hyrule Warriors. (Which you should be able to play, since I don't think there are many references to Wind Waker in it. I think there's one weapon that was from this game and that's it.)

I'm pretty sure that's the case. Surprisingly, though, it only appeared in three games. Phantom Hourglass, Four Swords, and Skyward Sword. At least, according to the Zelda Wiki.

I think there are a bunch of people who can create trailing images. I know some who could do this as if they were just going out for a stroll.
For the record, Wind Waker (both HD and GC original) runs at 30 FPS, so having the videos at 60 is pointless.
