The Legend of Zelda

[Kitsune Dzelda]

Eh. Call me nostalgic, but I personally like the older one better.

The newer one sounds nice though, I certainly like the duet the strings do.

[Madican]

Kinda prefer the older version.

Philistines

[hotb]

wow I bet da new one has like ten thooouuusand kibble bits a second

it's richer I guess but it sounds weird and muffled

like actually this is the outdoor and indoor versions of one track

[TerraChimaera]

Wait what
I'm on my 3DS so I can't see YouTube links

did




did they change the music

[Great Eyewarp]

Holy crap, that's beautiful. Goddesses, I hope they do that with more tracks. I want to hear Gohdan's theme with live organ.

[Galaxy Man]

they updated it a bit, made it less obviously midi

[Operation Awesome]

WWHD has done the impossible and actually made me want to get the digital version of a game.

2 weeks earlier than physical, jeez

[shazza]

i love the new version but i still prefer the old. idk it feels more cheery? the new one sounds deeper and muffled and it doesn't have quite the same "pop flyin'" feeling the old midi-ish one did. i'm also operating with a healthy dose of nostalgia.

[Kamak]

I personally prefer the new one, mainly because the music now has depth. When you listen to the comparison, the gamecube version just sounds extremely flat. Yeah, you can hear everything "perfectly" and at the same time, but then you lose the nuances.

It'd be like going to a symphony and hearing all of the instruments blurt out at the same time. They gotta ebb and flow a bit with the melody.

I can't wait to hear the same depth in Dragon Roost.

Bought the Wii U/Zelda bundle the other day. Goddamn is it a vast improvement on the gamecube game.

[Gryewolf]

How far have you gotten? So far only two things really bother me.
When you get the bombs and have to destroy the rock wall with it I got major slowdown, which didn't happen in the GC version as far as I remember. Also I can't seem to hit the peahats with bombs. No matter how close or far the bombs kept passing through them.

[Lambeth]

You mean the ocean peahats or the itty bitty ones? I always used the boomerang with the ocean fellows. I haven't gotten far at all, I'm trying to play it on hero mode.

[Gryewolf]

The ocean peahats. The little ones are fine as long as they don't fall down out of reach of your boomerang.

[Lambeth]

Yeah just use the boomerang on the ocean peahats, should work the same unless they changed that from the gamecube version.
