The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker caused quite a stir amongst fans when it was first shown off at Space World in 2001. Shigeru Miyamoto revealed the game to an audience that sounded shocked about the new cel-shaded look. The graphics were a vast departure from previous Zelda titles and from the GameCube Zelda tech demo shown at Space World the previous year.
After The Wind Waker’s unforgettable reveal, fans all over the world appeared split on how they felt about the game’s graphical art style. Some supported the new graphics and others felt betrayed.
A little over a decade ago The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker was finally released. The game has since been hailed for its creative art style and is widely regarded as one of the best games to be released on the GameCube.
Nintendo is now re-releasing The Wind Waker with brand new HD graphics on the Wii U. For this reason we here at Nintendo World Report will be sharing our memories of this, now, classic Zelda title with all of you.
