In a few days, players will be able to find The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword in a revised and corrected version. At least on paper. If the first videos have hardly convinced some people who see it as just an HD smoothing and nothing more, Nintendo wanted to reassure its community and explain to us that we can well count on visual and technical improvements. Also, to ensure that the message gets through, a trailer called “Comfort improvements” has been published, just to review the new features planned for this high definition version. The Japanese publisher takes the opportunity to remind that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD will also benefit from improved performance, more intuitive movement controls and a new button control system.
HERE ARE THE IMPROVEMENTS OF ZELDA SKYWARD SWORD HD
An optional Fay helper: Fay would appear during cutscenes or when his help was needed in the Wii version. She can now be manually invoked to give advice or provide tutorials when needed.
Improved fluidity: The game runs at 60 frames per second, for even smoother gameplay.
The possibility of speeding up the dialogues: The texts displayed on the screen can be accelerated by pressing the B Button.
Information windows no longer repeat: Explanations for collectibles, such as insects and materials, now only appear the first time an item is obtained.
The possibility of skipping the cutscenes: Cutscenes can be abbreviated by pressing the B Button.
An automatic backup: In-game progress will be saved automatically, in addition to existing manual saves.
Tutorial dialogues that can be abbreviated: The tutorials teaching the basics of the game have been revised and corrected to be less present and intrusive.
