Would they keep the motion controls using separated Joy Cons, and do you think it's possible for standard controls to be implemented?
Reminder of how good the game looks in HD.

I wonder what he said exactly. I'd be up for ports of WWHD and TPHD too.
"next Zelda coming sooner than we think"
Kidding aside, maybe this game deserves another chance. I'm not sure how this would work in handheld mode.
I'm not really interested though.

Always happy to see the ol' zelda ports. Did SS use any pointer or was it all cursor based? Been years since I touched it.
Not interested in the slightest. Skyward Sword was pretty, but is riffled with bad gameplay portions.
I really hope the next Zelda annoucement is not a remake (well, HD port) of that game.

Yeah it seems like it would be awkward (controlling movements in a 3D hemisphere by moving a stick in a 2D circle) but probably manageable.
That would be a first for a Switch game if I'm not mistaken.
By some margin my least favourite 3d Zelda .. endless tutorials, hand holding, slightly creepy character design, claustrophobic levels, make work and those controls .. but bring it on for the fans!
Hopefully port WWHD while they're at it

It used the Motion Plus for aiming, which means it can be replicated by the Joy Cons.
I feel Nintendo will try to avoid that happening. The new Mario Party is one of the few exceptions that I've seen to this, and you can still play it in table top mode at least. I can't imagine them allowing that for a game that's 20+ hours long.
I wouldn't be shocked if the game is heavily retooled for the Switch to make use of regular controls.
EDIT:
Oops. Forgot about that too. You can at least play it in table top mode like Mario Party. But yeah, those are the two exceptions and I don't see those ever being the norm.
Then there would only be one dungeon and the final cutscene left.
Couldn't they use the analog stick for that?
Anyway, I enjoyed the game more than most people, but wouldn't pay more than $30 for it.
Thank you, it really gets way too much undeserved hate. It's my favorite Zelda game until BotW.
Edit: ugh phone is making me type things that are the opposite of what I mean
Ah good point. And yeah Super Mario Party too.
Just to let everyone know if Botw was your first Zelda game then you should realize Skyward Sword is completely different. Try to keep an open mind about it.
I love Skyward Sword, it's right behind BotW as my favorite of the 3D Zeldas. But of course there are improvements they could make, tone down Fi, for one, and that would make a huge difference.
I imagine they would make an alternate control method for handheld use, the dual sticks will help in this regard. I love the motion controls in this game, though, so I'd play with split joy-cons as much as possible.
I'd love to see what Nintendo would do with the conversion to HD. I doubt they simply port it, they'll probably upgrade textures and touch the painterly effect in some way and maybe add some other effects as well.

My least favorite 3D Zelda game but I'd still get it, on the condition the tutorials and messages are is significantly toned down. I seriously don't know if I could bear that again.
Honestly large portions of the game need to be redesigned. If they went to that effort I'd be way down, but I doubt they will.

The Pro UI setting on Wii should have been default imo. I can't beleive the setting with the huge Wii mote showing controls on the right of the screen was default.
I think this whole "handheld mode" is being overblown. They can make it work with the right stick
Yes please, never had the Motionplus attachment so this is the only 3D Zelda I have never played.
A Skyward Sword port and a new 2d Zelda in 2019 please thank you Nintendo.

Anyway WW HD and TP HD remade things to make them less monotonous as the Triforce Quest so the weird thing would be that SS did not
It can be a compromise solution. Worst but playable.

SS is the Zelda that would benefit the most from a remaster. WW was also pretty flawed in its original form and the HD version did wonders for it. Hope they can pull this off.
