Skyward Sword!

I'm getting my copy tomorrow afternoon. There goes the next 90 hours of my life :3

Does anybody who ordered the collector's edition know if the wii remote plus comes with a nunchuk and a strap? I have both, but it wouldn't hurt to have extra.

I fly like both me and my bird are drunk, and it took me a million tries to land properly in a circle. Also, I flail around like a graceless idiot when fighting but I don't care!

hahaha, i was like that for the longest time. don't worry, after a while you'll be able to fight with some sort of flow and look good while doing it.
 
Update! First boss is so difficult when I'm still in flailing mode, though flailing around like a maniac comes in handy around bats. I can sometimes go around blocks but half the time it's a fluke still.

Flying is the best, though. I'm finally okay with it and flying is awesome and just exploring and being ~graceful~ and I AM RIDING A BIRD HELL YES

I also had an amusing time asking Fi if a Kikwi was Zelda. Fi in general is cool and the theme when ey showed up was really cool. I'm so pleased with it in general! And the art sends me into stubborn throes of pure glee. EVERYTHING IS SO PRETTY.
 
my wrist is killing me after having played this for days, but it's totally worth it

i just finished the sixth dungeon, got the master sword, and now i've gotta find the triforce

but before anything else, i'm working on getting the rest of the gratitude crystals, and upgrading the rest of my equipment; gotta get that iron bow!
 
Guys can you be more careful with spoilers :o like even if you're talking about some piece of equipment, I like not knowing what I'm going to get in the future.

anyway, I just beat the first dungeon. I'm quite enjoying being forced to play it slowly; it will last longer this way. :3 And I quite like the sword mechanics. It feels like there are fewer enemies, but each one actually takes a little thought to beat (well, unless they're Keese) so overall it's more fun. Though, yes, Skulltullas can just go die >:( STOP BOUNCING AROUND.
 
I hate the third area and I'm not even at the temple yet! Though parts of it are so pretty and verdant....

I have this horrible delusion that I can pull off cool manoeuvres when flying. Like diving and then pulling up with a single flap and then bursting through the cloudbank - and then I, no matter how many times I do it, misjudge my aim and have to call up my bird because I'm falling into clouds and not a pretty green/red/gold light. I also bash into the undersides of islands while trying to do dramatic swoops over them. My bird must hate me. ._.

I ALSO STALK THE RANDOM KNIGHTS FLYING AROUND. AND ATTEMPT TO SNEAK INTO THEIR FORMATIONS AND FOLLOW THEM. YES, THIS IS STUPID.
 
Has anyone who is left handed played it yet? I want to know how much I'm screwed with the controls so I'm not disappointed :P
 
I hate how I have limited playtime. I'm only at the faron woods.

That being said, the game is amazing. One thing is how humorous the game is at points, a big step up from twilight princess as far as that goes. (Apparently zelda enjoys pushing people off of cliffs.)

Also, when I had to turn the wiimote and pull it up like I was actually pulling the goddess sword out of its pedestal. That was the coolest thing so far by far.
 
The boss of the third temple was pathetically easy. Yeah, yeah, it's not actually a temple, but you know what I mean. It's interesting that they decided to name a main dungeon something other than a temple for once.

And I've gotten through them all on my own! I'm so proud of myself!
 
So yeah. i've been playing on hero mode for the last few days. dammit i'm forced to carry a heart medal D: some of the dialogue's been changed too, i've been looking out for the changes there too.
 
Just beat this game yesterday. I got sick of the insane amounts of padding at times and think Ghirahim is easily the most ridiculous villain in the series, but this is one of my favorite Zelda games hands down. Groose is easily my favorite character. The statue and Monsters Inc/Kraken thing are some of the best Zelda fights in history. And that robot desert pirate ship... so epic!
 
I just beat the main game 100%. All heart containers, all gratitude crystals, all sidequests beaten, because going and doing sidequests

Man, the ending
explained so many things about Ocarina of time. I mean, Impa's tribe, for one. So OoT Zelda's guardian is her descendant? Also, while I haven't played Twilight Princess so don't quote me on this, but is the Sealed Temple actually the Temple of Time in OoT and Castle Town was built around it?

I also like when it asks you if you want to go into hero mode.

"Would you like to enter Hero mode?
No / Bring it on".

I've set myself the challenge of completing every Zelda game I own that I haven't yet completed (except Zelda II :( ) before I get it.

I've finished ALttP and am now working on the original Zelda. Is there any way of knowing where to go at all or is it guesswork?

Because I've completed level 1, but in my search for level 2 I've found levels 4, 5, 6 and 8.
 
Argh, I can't wait until Christmas to get Skyward Sword!

But at least I have Minish Cap to hold off my Zelda cravings :33

I have yet to beat LoZ and Zelda 2 yet, though.


@Rasrap Smurf:
The dungeons are just kinda scattered haphazardly, the best way to find them is to go to GameFAQs :\
 
Yeah, cannot wait until I get Skyward Sword. According to Game Informer, the last two bosses are to be among the hardest in the franchise. I live for the thrill...
 
I didn't really find any boss particularly hard except the final one. And even it is a joke if you use invincibility potion.
