Is anyone else stoked as shit for this game? Not too much hype around it, but it's Zelda, so it'll be fucking awesome. Just preordered it and now the countdown begins until I have no life for a few weeks. Discuss.

Keeping in mind that Nintendo wrote that review, the game looks really good and i'll probably pick it up.

Yeah, Balto was telling me last night how IGN is saying that this is the best of the Zelda games...which I find EXTREMELY hard to believe. Nothing will ever beat Ocarina of Time for me.

Best zelda of all time? Thats a big call, ocarina of time and majora's mask, considering the technology available when they were released were mind boggling. However skyward sword looks epic, wishing i had a wii.

apparently, after 6 years or whatever, this is the first game to actually do wii controls right, and it's supposed to be awesome.

ign wasn't the only reviewer to call it the best zelda ever, several different one did. i'm interested.

i really need to get another ocarina of time, i somehow lost mine and am pissed. what was the last one for gamecube... twilight princess. that was pretty good, i liked it better than windwaker. it felt more like ocarina of time.

I sold the awesome gamecube Zelda collectors addition game that had every Zelda on it up until windwaker, because I thought I was too cool for Zelda until one day I reeeeaaally wanted to play it Im still kicking myself today for that

Awesome!  Wii controls are actually pretty sick too.

Also anyone getting it GET THE SPECIAL EDITION.  For 20 bucks more you get a ballin' gold Wiimote, plus a sick soundtrack cd.  Makes the drive from the store to home SO FUCKING EPIC.

I cheated and downloaded the symphony soundtrack last week. The Gerudo Valley arrangement is an absolutely beautiful piece of music.

Also, the controls are fucking awesome. When fighting the bosses I get into it and stand up and shit. The finishing blows are baller as shit, too.
