When The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker was originally released, it had its fair share of detractors. Those hoping for a more mature approach to the series were tremendously disappointed, and the sudden and abrupt graphical shift left an initial sour taste in the mouth of some. After actually playing through it, however, it became one of the best loved games in the series and one of the standout titles on the Gamecube. It was just an all around great game the had a fantastic adventure and a unique, memorable art style. So, of course many people were excited for the HD remake that recently came out for the Wii U. Strangely, though, people in Japan were less excited about Wind Waker HD than they were for the visual novel Oreimo, Happy End, which is known in America as…uh…My Little Sister Can’t Be This Cute: Happy End.

I had no doubts. Taking sexy pictures of my waifus.
It's a shame, even with HD the cuteness of Link's little sister is still entirely believable.
[QUOTE=Winner;42437736]Not surprising due to the popularity of Oreimo
...oh and also that [I]nobody owns a fucking Wii U[/I][/QUOTE]
That has nothing to do with Wind Waker HD not being popular. Japan is very killer app focused. When Monster Hunter 4 came out everyone and their mum probably bought that damn thing.
[quote=wikiped]Kyosuke Kosaka, a normal 17-year-old high school student living in Chiba, has not gotten along with his younger sister Kirino in years. For longer than he can remember, Kirino has ignored his comings and goings and looked at him with spurning eyes. It seemed as if the relationship between Kyōsuke and his sister, now fourteen, would continue this way forever. One day however, Kyosuke finds a DVD case of a magical girl anime which had fallen in his house's entrance way. To Kyosuke's surprise, he finds a hidden eroge (an adult game) inside the case and he soon learns that both the DVD and the game belong to Kirino. That night, Kirino brings Kyosuke to her room and reveals herself to be an otaku with an extensive collection of moe anime and younger sister-themed eroge she has been collecting in secret. Kyosuke quickly becomes Kirino's confidant for her secret hobby. The series then follows Kyosuke's efforts to help his sister to reconcile her personal life with her secret hobbies, while restoring his broken relationship with her and realizing the true feelings they have for each other.[/quote]
yeah i'm not surprised either
at least it didn't beat monster hunter 4 i guess?

His little sister can't possibly be that cute.
I'd buy WW HD if they just added an extra dungeon or something. I even recall that there was originally intended to be another dungeon, back when you're tracking down the three orbs or something earlier on, and you get the first two from dungeons, and simply have a giant fish hand you the third. But that was cut due to time restraints.
I love WW, don't get me wrong: I just find it hard to justify paying that much money for a more pretty version of a game I already own, especially since WW's graphics have aged rather well due to the cell shading.

i'm not here to judge. what you do with your little sister who may or may not be this cute is your own business
[QUOTE=thisispain;42438107]you should judge its disgusting[/QUOTE]
The biological sister route is worst. It is indeed disgusting.
you have reached the bottom congrats

Someone, somewhere, just had their browser crashed by a giant fish.
RIP in peace.
my sea bass cant be this big
Faith in humanity restored
Do i win a prize for reaching the bottom?
Understandable, You can't even take bikini shots of Zelda in Windwaker HD.
youre doing it all wrong
i made a 17000x17000 version if anyone's interested in a larger-than-actual-size sea bass
Well it's a Remake, if it was a new Zelda game it would most likely be on top.
I think they'd be much better off remaking Majora's Mask... Or, you know... Coming up with more original Zelda games.
I thought Nintendo fans loved new games with hardly any change from the previous.
[QUOTE=Szraneraxtq;42438228]Coming up with more original Zelda games.[/QUOTE]
They are.
There's upcoming 3DS and Wii U games.

i highly doubt its anything new though. just about every romance vn out there has some sort of sister/cousin route, blood-related or otherwise.
