So.. has anyone confirmed whether or not there will be a pre-order bonus? I'd totally pre-order Skyward Sword for that Zelda Wii Remote.

So hey, strangely, no one mentioned the release date announcement in this thread yet! icon_smile.gif

It looks like November 18th is going to be the date in Europe, and November 20th will be the date here in America. It's slightly odd to see Europe get a game before us, especially Zelda, but I don't begrudge them for their two-day head start. There have been many times when they've had to wait much longer for a title.

Finished Brawl? It's a fighting game! The point is not to finish! icon_wink.gif

I clock some pretty high times on PS2 games, because almost all of the ones I play are RPGs. Persona 4 clocked well over 90 hours on my first playthrough.

Sounds like the ever-familiar "Q4" release date which so many games get tagged with, early in production. That's what we had here -- "Q4" -- until the relatively recent announcement of the November release date.

If Europe is getting it on Nov. 18th, I highly doubt you're going to have to wait a whole month for Australia to get supplied, since all they will be doing is taking care of logistics (the game will already be translated into English by then).


...So hey, new (but related) topic:

Do you guys think Skyward Sword will revitalize the Wii? With the announcement of the Wii U -- and perhaps the release of the 3DS -- the Wii will eventually have to give way to future consoles. It's been proven, though, that the Zelda series sells hardware in the states. After SS comes out, Nintendo will be able to count on western gamers owning the Wii Motion Plus peripheral. How many WMP-dependent games will be made in the next year or two?...

Haha, no no, it's been years since we used to get games a lot later than you guys. In fact, in the last five years, we often get games before you icon_razz.gif

Spirit Tracks for example, we got a whole week before the US. Now, I can't speak for the rest of Europe naturally, and I know for a fact that the UK got the game two days after it was released in the US (on the 20'th, while it was released in the US on the 17th). But yeah, we always get games around the same time as you guys, and sometimes, like with SS here, we're getting it a little earlier :3

Well, I've been playing games for a really long time, so sue me! icon_razz.gif

Anyway, if you WANT me to resent you for your two-day lead, okay, I can do that. icon_wink.gif

...Although, what I really wonder about, is what happened to internationally simultaneous Zelda release dates?... The Zelda series used to do that. And yes, I'm including Japan when I say "internationally simultaneous."

What? Is that true? I thought I would have to wait like a month more! I am so excited about this game. I hope there will be many sidequests and a wonderful amazingly big world like in WindWaker.
And about the graphic: I like Wind Waker and Twilight Princess but the SS graphic looks wrong for a zelda game.

I don't think SS will revitalize the Wii, I think it will be the Wii's last hurrah, and Nintendo's last chance
to sell the system before the Wii U arrives.

Don't mean to be a downer, but look at SMW 2, DKC 3, and TP. The games that are really great for
pushing the system tend to be at the end of a system's life.

The NES is the only system that managed to outlive it's time. It thrived well into the SNES era.

But first, I'll need to unhack my Wii XD
