HIYAH

>>717289124 (OP)
Looks like shit, get a better TV

>>717292226
It looks better with the naked eye than on camera.

>>717292226
What I need more than a better TV is a better controller

>WOOOOooooooOOOO wooooOOOOOOoooooo WoooOOOooOO wOooOoOooOOO

It's impressive that they managed to do raytracing in 2006

>>717290592
Takes me right back

>>717289124 (OP)
All of the Ordon villagers look inbred.

>>717296413
That's just how humans look compared to hylians

>>717296413
Makes sense considering they have a population of like 10

>>717294923
how did I instantly hear it? I havent played this game in over a decade

>>717289124 (OP)
Emulation just doesn't capture the lighting right compared to this

>>717296413
>knife ear propaganda

>>717296413
Everyone in TP is the result of generations of miscegenation between Hylians and Gerudo. Notice how there's not a single character who you can identify as Gerudo in this game. They've completely assimilated with Hylians and become a single race. Even Zelda herself has Gerudo features (just look at her dark hair).

>>717296608
Very distinct

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

>>717296973
Lolno, the Gerudo got Holocaust'd and the Arbiter's Grounds is fucking Auschwitz.

A woman moment with disastrous consequences

>>717297291
>the spinner tracks were used to haul railcars full of Gerudo prisoners into spiked pits and quicksand

>>717297654
I hate Ilia so much

Why would Midna ever want to go back to her original form?

>>717298546
My wife is beautiful, cute, sweet, and lovely, curr

>>717298581
Because its 10x hotter

>>717298581
The way she kinda grunts when you dash is the hottest thing ever

https://youtu.be/Yv5UAdAa9v4
I love the sound right at the start of this track, and how it's used again during the fight with Zant

>>717298581
because women still be stupid

>>717289124 (OP)
Are you a poorfag or fell for the CRT meme?, i will make fun of you in both cases so please be honest

>>717300870
I'm a middleclassfag and this is my CRT from the old days. CRT isn't a "meme" I could even fall for, it's just an old thing I still have. I have access to a Wii U and a PC capable of running Dolphin, but I decided I wanted to play it like this because I think this game looks better in standard definition.

>>717289124 (OP)
Beautiful screenshots anon

>>717289124 (OP)
Playing HD right now just beat Arbiter’s Grounds. It’s great but Wind Waker clears…

>>717293236
Jesus dude. Some alcohol wipes will get rid of most of that shit, you don't HAVE to play in filth.

>>717289124 (OP)
a shit game

>crt
I KNEEL

>>717293236
Clean your controller you greasy fingered fucker

>>717300870
This game looks like shit on LCD, I'd too rather play it on even a small CRT if I have the choice.

>>717302768
>HD
You didn't beat the game. That goes for both TP and WW.

>>717303248
I’ve beaten WW the original but what’s so bad about HD TP?

>>717303248
Did they even change anything? To this day I'm still surprised TPHD even exists

>>717303302
https://youtu.be/JK4zrJwYtSk
The decision to remove some of the bugs you have to kill for the light tears is weird too. I think there's an entire house in Kakariko village that you just never have any reason to visit in the HD version because there used to be a bug there but they removed it. How could they think it was too much shit to collect, but then release BotW the very next year which is absolutely BLOATED with shit you have to collect?

>>717303557
iirc mostly just flipped the view from left to right and you collect less of those twilight tear things

>>717303726
Probably because people did complain about there being too many, it was just listening to feedback for the game. Their whole stance with BOTW was "everything is optional but you will find something if you want to go looking". Not that it was good mind you, I think Koroks and chests with a rusty sword as a reward for a puzzle or fight at a cool out of the way location suck too but it wasn't required to get them.

>>717304552
Listening to retarded feedback is just as bad as not listening to feedback at all. That's why Sonic will never be good again.

>>717302660
I'll just press the screenshot button on my wii

>>717305015
I wish I could screenshot my Wii U

>>717303248
shut up dork

>>717305443
There's a homebrew tool that lets you. I forget the name, but IIRC you can take a screenshot, then open a file server on the Wii U and transfer the file to your PC without needing to quit the game.
it's not as good as when you could just post screenshots to miiverse though ;_;
Actually I just remembered that you could also open the web browser while you were in a game, and upload a screenshot of whatever was being displayed when you opened it, to ANY website that allowed you to upload files. That's WITHOUT homebrew, you could just do this by default. Sadly, though, I doubt 4chan would work on the Wii U's web browser these days. It was so fucking good back in the day though, as far as console web browser go.

>>717302768
>Wind Waker clears
this but the opposite

>>717306085
State your case

>>717302768
This. Getting the stupid twilight bugs is unrioncally worse than the triforce quest.

>>717303726
>nitpick nitpick nitpick
nope, not even gonna watch the rest of the vid

>>717306181
Neither of these were problems to begin with, and Nintendo catered the remasters toward the most vocal, lowest common denominator retards who complained.

>>717289124 (OP)
the mirrored gam cube version made using the wii player guide a nightmare. every direction and map was flipped horizontally, and very annoying

>>717306127
Wind Waker is unfinished and only has 4 dungeons. Twilight Princess has some of the best dungeons in the series, and there is a lot of them. Simple as.
>>717306181
>optional bugs VS mandatory ocean slog

>>717306380
>optional bugs
Have you even played the game anon? Oh you think he's talking about Agitha's bugs don't you. Lol.

>>717289124 (OP)
With how port happy Nintendo got with their Wii U library in the Switch's first year, I'm surprised neither of the HD remasters made the cut. It was literally free money and most people had bought a Switch for Zelda anyway.

>>717306332
The Wii version is the one that got mirrored. Because most people are right-handed, they flipped it for the motion controls so Link is right-handed on the Wii.

>>717306380
I said the twilight bugs, dumbass. Not the ones you give Agatha.

>>717306468
>>717306525
Oh. Well the twilight bugs are much less of a slog because they are broken up into 3 separate kino zones. In Wind Waker the entire game grinds to a halt until you get the triforce shards. Both of these things were made better in the HD versions of both games

>>717306518
My theory is that they didn't want the good Zeldas to be in peoples' recent memory, because their open world slop games compare very unfavorably to them. Hence why only SS (the worst one) got a port to Switch.

>>717306518
this is even more infuriating as wind waker on the gamecube emulator is hot input delay garbage
i do want to replay them but i'm too fucking lazy to get out my wii u, i'm giving them until the next proper direct to port them before i just bite the bullet and take it out
no i'm not emulating on pc fuck off

>>717306692
That is a wild theory considering that most kids these days would much rather play BotW

>>717306849
Maybe the kids would change their minds if they played a good game. Nintendo can't have that.

>>717306954
The new Zelda games are good and align much more with the tastes of younger gamers

>>717307054
>align much more with the tastes of younger gamers
That's a self fulfilling prophecy. Younger gamers have that taste because it's all they know. There are young gamers for whom BotW *is* Zelda. It's nearly a decade old game.

>>717306692
To be fair, I'd also be pretty shit-scared of having your new audience prefer the old stuff after you've spent a considerable amount of time and money crafting and refining an engine like BotW's. That said:
>>717306954
>>717307054
Both of these are kinda true until the day Nintendo actually releases those damn ports, if that day ever comes.

TP isnt perfect but its my favorite. I just wish it had the sun song for hunting the poe souls a little faster

*bites your head*

>>717304670
It's part of the Zelda cycle thing. I don't know if the people bitching about there being too many actually thought so, or they were just nitpicking to complain about the current Zelda game at the time. I don't think they removed any that offered some unforgettable moment I want back but I'm also pretty much never on the same side of things as the "da gaem doesnt respekt ur tiem" or "grind bad" crowds either, who the light tear complainers always sounded similar to.

>>717303557
Master Mode had double damage and enemies didn't drop hearts.
That was too hard for the anon you replied to kek

*blocks your any% speedrun*

>>717308134
>That was too hard for the anon you replied to kek
No, in fact I'm playing the GC version right now with an action replay code that does that :^)

>>717308248
then you make even less sense as anything other than a zoomer on an ego trip because he got a gamecube on ebay

>>717308437
I like the HD version's hard mode. I don't like its other changes. Now I have the best of both worlds. What doesn't make sense?

>>717307054
I dont think young people have any taste for adventure games or open world slop like botw
They just want addiction simulators with a shitty tacked on ranked mode like fortnite or free to play gacha

>>717308194
this weapon could have been so cool if it just had a few more ways to use it
why are all zelda items so one dimensional and braindead. the spinning top was also cool and then its just immediately useless

>>717308607
You can use both that and the spinning top in combat quite effectively. If you don't, that's a you problem.

>>717308134
>not using the ganondorf amiibo to boost it to 4x damage taken
actually makes everything a threat, especially pits

Im playing Twilight Princess on my WiiU via Nintendont in 4:3 on my 4K TV with a GameCube controller.

>>717289124 (OP)
Twilight Princess is so unbelievably fucking comfy and it makes me sad that some people see nothing in it.

>>717289124 (OP)
What's the best way to play TP?
It seems like every version has its pros and cons, none of them are really definitive.
>GC
4:3 only, fan texture packs available but those are hit or miss
>Wii
16:9 available, but whole world is flipped and requires an actual wiimote for waggle or shitty normal controller bindings
>Wii U
16:9 and remastered textures with decent controller bindings, but locked to 30 fps and setting up cemu is a bitch

>>717309042
I prefer the Wii U version, but only if you have the actual hardware. Otherwise the Gamecube version is good.

>>717309042
Gamecube is the only way to play.
4:3 with no texture packs and 1x res.
Fuck all these 6x res HD widescreen texturepacks. Cheapens the experience.
WiiU version doesnt even have the heat effect in the fire temple and completely ruins the look.

I remember the first night that I played the forest temple. 'Twas so comfy.

>>717309042
just emulate the gamecube version with the 16:9 hack

>>717303248
I've beaten TP like 8 times before HD even launched. I don't want to go back to the original without Hero Mode, it makes the game feel a lot better. Toss in the Ganondorf amiibo and shit gets silly.
>getting one-shot by a fire arrow while wearing the Zora armor because that armor's already insane default 10x multiplier on fire/ice damage gets 4x'd
>King Bulblin takes a year to swing but now does 12 hearts with the 4x multiplier
It's amazing. You're genuinely at risk for randomly getting one-shot for like the first 2/3rds of the game. I'd say they beat it under those conditions.

>>717309447
Completely achievable in the GameCube version with an action replay code.

>>717309520
>action replay
YDBTG

>>717296413
All the npc look like cartoon shit with a realistic artstyle.

>>717309520
Or I can just play the WiiU version.

>>717298581
Tits. No woman wants to look like a flat midget.

>>717309701
Wii U version gets rid of a lot of the soul. I don't like the new textures. You might scoff at my usage of the term "soul" but my mind can't be changed so don't even bother.

>>717308607
I wish they took all the additions to attacks they added to the TP weapons in Hyrule Warriors and somehow implemented more realistic versions of their attacks when they made the HD port for TP.

>>717309903
I was so fucking mad as a Wii U owner that the 3DS got the more complete version of the game.

>>717308881
Show us how it looks on that display

>>717309372
Pure soul

I want to hug, handhold, kiss, marry, nakadashi, and impregnate Ashei

>>717309042
Wii U, easy. You get tons more item buttons. That alone makes it light years ahead of the other versions.

>>717310685
This but Telma

>>717310419

>>717310685

TP is an ass game and i didn't even finish it. Someone made a director's Cut fan mod where it edits out all the tedium, makes it actually hard or something.

This moment scared the fuck out of me as a kid

>>717289124 (OP)
Comfy

>>717310256
The my fairy shit is whatever, but I do wish we got the Wind Waker stuff on the Wii U. Hyrule Warriors was the first game I bought a season pass for.

TP was garbage

>>717312143
You couldn't be more wrong

>be TP HD devs
>replace half the rupee chests in the game with miiverse stamps that would be utterly useless less than a year after release
What the fuck were they thinking?

>>717303557
>shorter tear hunts
>added an item that makes hunting poes easier
>added an entire Cave of Ordeals dungeon for the wolf (don't worry, it's shit)
>added some amiibo shit that no one cares about
>fixed the rupee chests (and then replaced a third of them with amiibo shit that no one cares about)
>added Hero Mode
>added a damage multiplier behind an amiibo which actually is worth caring about
>fucked up the horse controls
>upressed the textures without changing the geometry
>added touch menu shit that reduces pausing

Did I miss anything? Overall, it's a bunch of small changes. TP didn't get the overhaul WW got because it didn't need nearly as much fixing. It was always a much more solid game.

>>717312395
I'm convinced that this is what is preventing them from porting it over. They are deathly afraid of removing all the miiverse and gamepad functionality and feel like they have to add equivalent features to replace them

>>717312774
i mean, they can just rereplace the stamps with rupees again, nobody will really care and the gamepad was just quick select for items
wind waker though has the problem with the tingle bottle, they would have to make an internal sharing system or use gameshare to make the other system act as a gba

That one chest in Goron Mines is evil as fuck.

>>717313402
Especially in the original version.

>>717312143
100%. Huge empty world, maybe 10 NPCs in the entire game, it’s completely bloated, the unskippable tutorial takes about 2 hours, just feels lifeless. The only good thing I can say about it is some of the dungeons are good, but everything else is pretty awful.

>>717313841
bruh imagine calling Twilight Princess bloated given the absolute state of the franchise now

>>717313930
This. Been playing HD and loving it.

Should I play the Wii or Wii U version of Twilight Princess?

>>717314094
Wii U

>>717314094
Wii U on Hero Mode.

>>717313841

Twilight Princess... Maximal soulkino...

>>717314094
GC

>>717314774
No

He’s literally got that dog in him

Interesting quirk of the GC version that definitely isn't in the other versions due to lacking analog triggers. After opening a chest, the camera will be at this unique angle. If you partially depress the left trigger, link will change his stance, but the camera won't center behind him. The camera will only center if you FULLY press the trigger. This "right after opening chest" state seems to be the only context in which a partial and full press behave differently. Neat!

>>717297291
You think you know Hyrule? Link again!

>>717320429
You can do some horseshit with boss flags and out-of-bounds clips to do the miniboss in water temple before Goron Mines but it's a real fucker and not something someone is going to do casually.

>>717320684
He's a faggot at first saying
>I wanna be like Link! Riding... horses... and not the other stuff!
but at least he stops being a faggot since he has a character arc in the early game. He uses a sword and shield in the credits.

>>717320539
Yep, *sip* they don't make 'em like they used to

>>717289124 (OP)
what was it with nintendo games and having an action button displayed on screen wasting real estate at all times?
they only have the one button, it's not like it's ever ambiguous what button it is

>>717289124 (OP)
Yikes bro, these graphics are not it.

>>717302660
Ermmm does anyone else see the other tab?

A proper 4k monitor + CRT Royale emulates the fine details, even the phosphors.

Why are you so retarded?

>>717322871
The WiiU version is original assets too.
They're touched up so they don't look like a pixelated mess.

>>717323009
>>717323010
So you didn't play it. Just like I suspected. Its always the same cope with you people.

>>717323019
>They're touched up
They look like shit compared to the original. Are you unironically saying you think Illia looks better in the Wii U version?

>>717322963
Composite video. It's not the best TV ever made, but again, my camera makes it look worse.

>>717323083
Anon you are literally retarded. Textures are assets. You can't just say they used the original assets when they factually did not. New textures = not the original assets.

>>717323157
Being pedantic doesn't change the fact that you've never played the definitive version of the game. The assets are literally the same. They are just touched up like another anon pointed out.

The horse controls are better in the GameCube version too.

>>717323317

I have a deep love for TP but the city in the sky boss is the absolute worst boss in any non-shovelware Zelda game, what the fuck were they thinking

>>717324315
What? That boss is kino of the highest order.

>>717323861
Man I don't keep up with drama, I use duckstation because it's the first that popped into Google.
PS1 emulators all just "work", no glitches no bugs no problems that I have ever seen.
I care about Duckstation's 9x upscaling to match the 4k CRT Royale preset I'm using.
I care about Duckstation's Dithering, interlacing, and even widescreen support for most games. And the game icons that match the ISO I'm using, which I believe are the same PS1 save screen icons.
If there's a better PS1 emulator experience mention it however Duckstation has never given me problems.

>>717323452
Hylians are humans. They're humans with pointy ears. It's like Asians in the real world with different type of eyes than normal people.

>>717325754
And before anyone claims that it's mortal in the Japanese version, it isn't. Zora and Goro refer to them as humans so ningen means Homo Sapien.

TP was the first Zelda game I ever played and still the only one I've ever done (besides HW:DE). Midna being in it was too good. Ruined my brain. Feels wrong if Midna isn't there now. Like if you played Banjo-Kazooie and then found out there were dozens of other Banjo games before and since but none of the other ones have a hilariously mean bird living in his backpack who starts shitfights with NPCs.
