new story trailer for TP HD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBIo8gTrWl4

I don't think I'll bite on this one, as I still have the Wii version (which I'd be happy replaying) and the new dungeon is basically just a cave of ordeals type thing but as Wolf Link.

Staying strong on my 'spend less time and money on games' new years resolution!

For those who haven't played it though HD will surely be the best option, if you don't mind paying the bit extra.

I preordered it a few weeks back so I'm looking forward to it.

Anyone know anywhere cheap for pro controller?

Currently have a pre-order on Amazon for £36.00 with the amiibo.

Very much looking forward to it, as I haven't played it since it initially released. Hopefully by release date I'll have MM:3DS complete.

 

[merlin]

Never played it so I'll be picking this up for sure.

Playin Xenoblade Chronicles X right now.

Enjoyable so far. I'm a sucker for Jrpgs.

 

[merlin]

Enjoy.

Truly fantastic game - massive beyond belief too!

Just bought this, the Zelda Amiibo for functionality with the new Twilight Princess in March.



Never opened one up before and they're surprisingly well made for a tenner. Already linked this to my Smash Bros game for the Wii-U, and unlocked a few minutes of Super Metroid.

I've got the Wolf Link one coming with TP, too, so the collection should start growing nicely.

Looks great though i agree with what the chap says, at the time it looked great to me so playing now it would seem just as it did back then if that makes sense. I find this with most hd updates, they always feel a bit underwelming but thats just due to me remembering them looking fab at the time

My girlfriend bought me Hyrule Historia book for valentines. It's pretty damn awesome. Artwork is stellar.

Very good book. Check it out on amazon if you have any interest in zelda.

Can't wait for Twilight Princess HD, barely played the original on Wii so its gonna be a treat

 

[Syph]

Miitomo stuff launches tomorrow - only pre-reg, but worth a look at. Replacement for Club Nintendo, 1 account for all systems etc.

/edit: Nintendo Accounts can be registered tomorrow, to allow for the pre-reg for Miitomo. Nintendo account is the replacement for CN and seemingly links NNID etc together.

I don't even have a WiiU and i bought a amiibo zero suit samus, just because it looks hawt, i'm such a henti. It'll look good next to my skylanders Quorra and Ashoka. Yeah i'm building my harem in figure form

Moon Studios Developer Expresses Frustration With Obtaining NX Development Kit

 

[malachi]

No surprise, they are an Indi developor with only one game. All the major big boys had their dev kits months ago.

Mine turned up yesterday but I haven't had the opportunity to play. Hopefully I can find time tonight.

 

[Barrybear]

Got my Limited Edition yesterday and played for about 2 hours.
Been a few years since I played the original but the frame rate seems nice, textures a bit low but nothing to even worry about and everything is a lot smoother.

Only use the Pro Controller so far but all is good

The Amibo is my favourite one so far the quality seems much higher than some of the others I have.
