I remember The Wind Waker so fondly and always loved the art style. It simply was and still is a beautiful game.

[@TeeChu]

Completely! Replayed it to capture footage for this video and love how well its aged!

[@JonatanEA]

One of my absolute favourite games. In contrast to most people, it seems, I'm actually quite fond of the late-game sailing! Great video, it's nice to find a new youtuber who doesn't have to yell all the time or pan out the video to 10 minutes! 😁

[@TeeChu]

Haha I was too sleepy to yell 😆 thanks so much for the lovely comment! I definitely need to replay WW soon and revisit the later game sailing, will be interesting to see how it is so many years later!

This Zelda game, along with Twilight Princess, Link's Crossbow Training and Skyward Sword have the same sound effects from Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and the Super Mario Galaxy games.

[@TeeChu]

Oooh that's so intriguing! I guess Nintendo have a similar sound library across games!

My favorite Zelda of all times! I hope nintendo brings this master piece to switch!

[@TeeChu]

I hope so too! Definitely needs the HD port!
