Zelda: Skyward Sword - Official Thread

Shopto have dispatched my copy, tomorrow is going to be an exciting day.

You might be in luck marzy, mine was processed yesterday but I only got the dispatch message this morning. Which I think was late as super mario 3D land turned up on my doorstep this morning! If your post hasn't come yet you may have Zelda today! Don't get your hopes up too much though!

No Skyward Sword in my post this morning... My day is now crap. *Sigh*

Ahh bugger, that'll prolly be the same with me as well Marzy. I can't really complain though because the majority of the time I get stuff early from shopto xD

"Je reservering van Wii Zelda Skyward+Remote Ld is nu beschikbaar! Ga snel naar de winkel waar je hebt gereserveerd om je game op te halen."

Which is Dutch for "W00000T WE GOT YOUR GAME EARLY, COME PICK IT UP DUDE!"

Scratch that I got mine today! It's pretty awesome so far

FML

I officially hate Royal Mail...

I got it I got it!! Now unboxing.

SHIT! IT'S HERE!

I didn't think it was coming. Especially after I already had the mail, then a separate signed delivery for my dad this morning. But it just came now!

SO EXCITED!

Marzy, yours might still come yet mate!

Goodbye world, playing this bad boy to death now

Luckily gits. Apparently mine got dispatched today, although I doubt it'll arrive tomorrow. :s

Quick question!! Where is the option to remove the HUD from the screen? I've been looking around, trying all buttons but I can't figure it out. I don't think it's in the manual either.
Thanks.

Oh, I got a free Zelda (Twilight Princess) beanie with my game. Sadly it doesn't look good on me.
I did notice that (online) stores are selling nice Zelda merchandise, like Hyrulian shield key chains.

I believe you need to get a bit further into the game before you can remove the HUD. I'm not at that point yet myself.

Yeah, you're right. I played for 5 minutes after that post and they gave me the option. I'm on Pro now.

Very jealous of everybody getting stuck into this game, I'm going to wait until Christmas. In case I don't sort out the Dolphin emulator on my iMac I've stopped my parents throwing out the only standard def TV in the house (because I'd rather play the game in SD then deal with how ugly it'd look in composite on my 26 inch HDTV). Running it on the Dolphin emulator would be sweet..

Yeah, wish I'd kept my SD TV now too. Gotta say it's not looking it's absolute best, but still decent enough.

The first thing I bought for my Wii when I got a new TV (19" back then) was a component cable. Can't live without it. Still looks good on my 26"

Gotta agree with Mush and Echoes, component cables are essential if you have a HD TV. Skyward Sword looks amazing on my 40 inch LCD HD TV. Best looking Wii game by far, it's so smooth and fluent.
Component cables are really cheap too, I got mine for £1 from CEX.

How far in is everyone?

Using component too. I'm not saying it looks bad, just that it would clearly be perfect on an SD TV, which is why I'm a little disappointed I got rid. Obvs I'd wanna be playing this at the best possible resolution, but it's still really good.

I'm not too far in tbh.

Thanks for putting your progress in spoilers guys. That way I can still look over the thread and such.

I will be doing the same once I get the game.

That reminds me, I need some new component cables with my copy tomorrow morning. My current leads have a loose connection.

Very excited.
