  • I agree about collecting the triforce pieces. Every time I replay this game, I always make it to that part and then quit because it's so tedious.

  • 4:39 I need to agree even after i got the map and the compass I had no idea of what to do or where to go(even after i just walkthrough of the whole thing). the only thing i honestly an truly liked about the dungeon boss

  • i have heard that if you beat all 3 files both times you can start a new file and choose colour on the link outfit (purple,red,green.blue)

  • Reaction Command...Kingdom Hearts II...

    YOU PLAY KINGDOM HEARTS!

  • took me two months to find triforce piece

  • This game aged very well, still killer graphics.

  • Its not graphics, its art direction.

  • @rmprod729 Cel-Shading can be considered a form of graphics as they are based on a cartoon art style.

  • many centuries? 150 years...

  • What are your two favourite zelda games

  • The story for this game was absolutley amazing!!!!

  • I love Wind waker!!

    I don't know why, but I love sailing, it's just so fun!!!

  • @Corrol132 Unlike you, I know why i love sailing.

    it's just so refreshing seeing the beatiful sea, and coming to an unexplored island just waiting for you to explore....THIS IS AMAZING

  • I'm not sure. Maybe I could give this game another shot. But a couple of the dungeons seem really poor, the graphics aren't bad but don't add anything, and the triforce shard hunting is a MAJOR flaw. But maybe I could give the game another try.

  • It's so beautiful... it gripes me that the next tv-console game had not the same graphics

  • thats my childhood your reviewing right now :D

  • @jokenhahaha Amen to that ::D

  • My friend told me if you put ur name as Zelda it translates the hyrulian language if your on your first play through. I'm not sure if its true since i don't own this game but if someone wants to try it go ahead and tell me the results :D

  • @kirbchu1 no actually when you beat the game they give you a option to replay the game with some differences one of the differences is the translation from what i heard

  • @crocasaur Yes but if you just started a new game and you say your name is Zelda, my friend has told me it translates, of course i cannot try this out since i dont have WW

  • @kirbchu1 i am really not sure about it if you want to me to try it i dont mind i have the game and i am ready to make a new file if you want to see.

  • 2:36

    YAY!

  • If i was a super rich man I would proudly donate all my money just for Nintendo to put this game on the 3ds!

  • My favorite in the series (but skyward sword might change that, but until I pick up my pre-order copy still my favorite)

  • fucking awesome game. loved the artstyle too! looking forward to skyward sword since they use the same artstyle :D

  • Hey cjszero01, What your favorite Legend of Zelda game? Mine is Ocarina of Time!

  • @coughmedicinekitten his favorite zelda game is ocarina of time then twilight princess then wind waker i am not sure what comes next

  • My Favourite Temples in That game are:

    6.Wind Temple

    5.Ganons Tower

    4.Tower of the Gods

    3.Dragon Roost Caver

    2.Earth Temple

    1.Forbidden Woods.

  • @MrGuillermo741 Aren't those the only dungeons? lol

  • this actually was the only zelda game that i didnt like it had the childish sort of look compared to oot just like how i feel for cod black ops is to cod mw2

  • i watched this basically to decide if i should but this game. end result: i'm not going out of my way, but the next time i go to play n trade or gamestop, ill be SURE to look for this.

  • didnt you do the photo/statue things quest? that was a nice diversion

  • the perfect video game not just zelda game video game

  • if you don't want to sail all the time just get the teleport song from defeating the frog in the whirlpool

  • I hated the wind temple as a kid. thats why i love it :) Challenges are what make this the best Zelda ever.

  • I hated the sailing at first (i just play my gba for a few minutes till i'm at my destination) I also hated finding the 8 pieces of the triforce also. Took me 8 months to figure out that the last chart was on the ghost ship. Yes i had that chart that told me were the triforce charts were. Don't get me started on tingle that greedy basterd! At least he was of some help. Only 7 dungeons and they're way to easy. My least favorite zelda ever. Still a fun game and has great music.

  • this was my first zelda game and i'd loved the series ever since

  • This Zelda game should've got more fans. this beats Oot any day! You can do tons of things in this game you could not do in any other zelda game. Windwaker FTW!!!

  • @TheBeast0911 Nothing beats Oot because if this game was so great why did they release Oot on 3ds and not wind waker.

  • @charliecannon1 i'm not even going to start on such a dumb comment

  • the best part about this game, is that I got it for free

  • My first and fave. Zelda game.

  • my fave game ever

  • bill s.978 makes me want to watch every video game thing i can find. this is still good.

  • its a damn good game...if you have enough patiance to fucking sail around for hour on end...

  • get aloud of me. I have the wind waker GUIDE! AND YET... I SUCK AT THE WIND TEMPLE

  • amazing graphics

  • thumbs up if you think they should make this on the 3ds

  • wait, there are only 5 dungeons!?

  • @xFIRERUSHx 6 if you count Ganon's Tower.

  • @cjszero01 8 if u include tower of the gods and forsaken fortress

  • @cjszero01 no there were 7 dungeons the forsaken fortress on da 2nd visit (u get a dungeon item and a dungeon boss) so technically its a dungeon

  • @cjszero01 Actually, there are 7 dungeons: Dragon Roost Cavern, the Forbidden Woods, the Tower of the Gods, The Forbidden Fortress, (on account of the fact that it had both a mini boss and boss), The Earth Temple, Wind Temple, and Ganon's Tower

  • @cjszero01 always knew there was 5 dungeons but it always felt like there was more even though there wasn't.

  • @cjszero01 Also, cjszero01, and this is not to insult or offend you, but the island count is actually 49 islands, or at the very least 49 island spaces. The map is a 7x7 grid, so the total number of islands should equal 49. The count just barely misses 50. Just thought you should know is all. :)

  • @cjszero01 What about the second visit to the forbidden fortress?

  • @cjszero01 wait how are there only 5 dungeons? 1- forsaken fortress 2- dragon roost cavern 3- forbidden woods 4- tower of gods 5- earth temple 6- wind temple your favorite :p no seriously there are 6 dungeons or am i wrong?

  • @cjszero01 7 if you count Ganon's tower and both parts of forsaken fortress

  • @cjszero01 7 if you count forsaken fortress.

  • @potatopac 8 if you count outset forest

  • @xFIRERUSHx Majoras Mask only had 4, but that is still one of my favorites.

  • @xFIRERUSHx

    And a fucking huge overworld with TONS of stuff to do

  • @xFIRERUSHx nah theres 7 if u count the forsanken fortress

  • @xFIRERUSHx The game's sidequests as well as the Triforce chart/shard hunting make up the rest of the game after those 5 dungeons, so it kinda balances out.

  • I have an limited edition with OoT & OoT Masterquest =3

  • ya the game music wasn't as badaz as ocarina of time

  • only think I didn't like about this game was the obscene amount time you spend getting treasure and *spoiler* triforce pieces.

  • how many dungeons are there not including forsaken fortress and return of the forsaken fortress and tower of gods cause im collecting the triumph forks right now but i wanna know if there are any more temples cuz it felt kinda short

  • thumbs up if wind wakers graphics remind you of the sly cooper series.

  • This game was great. It's my second favorite game in the Legend of Zelda series, but I've only played three of the games so that's not saying much. The only thing that really bothered me was the sailing. It took WAY too long to get from one island to the next. I actually really liked the graphics and when I saw previews for the next Zelda game, Skyward Sword, I was really happy that they might bring these graphics back.

  • at least u can get the in-credible chart that tells u where the triforce pieces are

  • I'm not a huge fan of this game because of the frustrating parts like what you said, like the part traveling from Windfall to Outset, the eight Triforce pieces, buying the Triforce map things (or whatever they are, I haven't played this game for a while), and the Wind Temple, but this game is mostly really good.

  • THis game was awsome but it got brokded soz i cant play no mores

  • I HATED THE SIXTH DUNGEON! Molgera was a fun battle, though.

  • I find it funny when a Darknut picks up a Moblin spear and vice versa.

  • Wow I just got really nostalgic wen i watched this even though i own it but its my favorite game ever. LOZ WW FTW!!!!!!!!!!

  • This was the first Zelda game that I have ever played. I never even heard of Zelda before I got it. I'm glad I bought the game because if I didn't I wouldn't have liked the LoZ

  • ...actuliy it only takes place 1 century after ocerina of time...i bileve so becouse it was on nintendo.com

  • Am I the only one that actually liked the Triforce Quest? I thought it was a great way to visit minor islands that you wouldn't normally go to in a linear playthrough.

  • i hated that dungean to

  • i adore TP but WW is my second srry Oot fans but that isin't by fav after WW is a link to the past Oot 4 :P

  • i love this game (i also find the sailing intertaning because of its vast amounts of scenery)

  • i know this is your opinion but the wind temple was one of my favorite dungeons. yeah, that mini forest plant thing... did get annoying but the boss was one of my favorite and the music for that boss. when i would play the forsaken fortress the first time, i would always panic when snooping around. whenever my cousin got to the triforce part (we played it alot) i would do it in half an hour. this game is great. one of my favorites.

  • You also get the deluxe pictobox from the start after you complete it, which comes in handy for crafting sculputeres of the first boss fights!

  • This is my all time favorite Zelda game. :)

  • My review on Wind Waker:

    Graphics: Yes, we didn't expect these graphics and I think we all freaked out a bit, but most of us actually learned to respect and like them. Heck, these are some of the greatest graphics I've seen on a video game, but that's enough talk about graphics.

    The story: In my opinion, WW's story is one of the greatest stories ever. It's dark, saddening, and epic all at the same time. At first, you're main goal on yoiur quest is to save Aryll, but it soon changes. *CONT.*

  • The story continued: After Aryll is saved, you discover Ganon's true virtue and you find out who Zelda is. If that isn't totally unexpected, I don't know what is. Seriously, entering Hyrule Castle for the first time was one of the most epic moments in any video game I played.

    Dungeons: WW doesn't have a lot of dungeons, as you all know. Plus, the dungeons aren't really that difficult. But, they were creative and fun that I didn't mind the difficulty at all. My favorite one is the Wind Temple.

  • Dungeons cont.: That dungeon is awesome and the wind themed puzzles were interesting. Plus, the boss was great and had some cool music.

    Bosses: Wind Waker's bosses may be easy (just like in all Zelda games, IMO), but they were fun and they looked stunning. The fast-paced movement and the use of the new items made my first battles with all the bosses unforgettable.

    Difficulty: Like I said, WW's not that hard. It's actually one of the easier 3D Zelda games. But, that doesn't make the game bad.

  • Difficulty cont.: I thought that the difficulty suited the game well and made it just right. It's not hard, but it isn't piss-easy like many people think it is. I personally thought that the game was more difficult than Majora's Mask (aside from Great Bay Temple), but that's just me.

    Sailing: Ah, the BIG issue. I'm one of the few that didn't mind the sailing and I'm one of the VERY few that absolutely enjoyed it. Sailing the 49 squares of the Great Sea for the first time was freaking epic!

  • Sailing cont.: Yes, after a while the sailing did become slightly tedious, but I honestly didn't mind. And the Triforce Quest? The so-called part that ruined the game? It's like the Water Temple. It's beatable of you have COMMON SENSE. The Triforce Quest wasn't bad at all for me...but I still wanna kill Tingle. 3184 rupees my ass.

    Overall, this is my FAVORITE Zelda game and in my opinion one of the greatest video games of all time. It's not perfect, but no game is. Not even Ocarina of Time.

  • I give Wind Waker a 9.7/10. An amazing game with timeless gameplay. A must-have if you don't have it.

    Sorry for using so many comments. ^^;

  • If you guys need help with this game search Chuggaaconroy and he has a walkthrough. He did 100% in the game so don't worry (:

  • Such a grand game... not to mention, it was HUGE, I mean, 49(NOT over 50...) islands, each having it's own traits and treasures, there are a good amount of secret caves, dungeons and mini-dungeons, I mean, it was a GIANT game

  • I agree completely

  • momy

  • I've played this game over 27 times(100 %) and it never gets boring.

    It's just that fun.

  • I prefer this than oot, im sorry but this game was as perfect as Zelda ever got!!!

  • @zeldafanboy23ify That's fine.

  • @cjszero01 Even though i dont have this game, how do you play as outset link the entire time?

  • @FabricaRhino Beat the game then start a new file when it asks you if you want to start a new file.

  • @cjszero01 Shhhh, that's what they call yelling in my country.

  • @MrGuitarman36 What?

  • @cjszero01 Toasty pizza pie sandwhiches on the side of jdjf are clams of toasty waffles on the side of chocolate sauce

  • @zeldafanboy23ify This game is far from perfect. No game is. Not even Oot.

  • @gameaddict51 i know, thats why i said "As perfect as Zelda ever got" because its not perfect.

  • @zeldafanboy23ify hells ya its better (and funnier)

  • @zeldafanboy23ify same. my summer project was to finish every zelda game i started but quit as a kid (oot, WW, minish cap and link to the past) and wind waker was the one that gave me the most fun. I beat them all in a day or two and an all nighter, so i expected more of a chore, but the wind waker was fun, exciting, comical, hard, and in my opinion the greatest zelda game ever! (i mean COME ON! YOU GET TO SMASH IN A GIANT BIRD'S SKULL WITH A HAMMER TWICE LINK'S SIZE!)

  • @zeldafanboy23ify What do you thin of Twilight Princess?

  • @11zoomzoom11 I really love that game :)

  • @zeldafanboy23ify But you like ww more?

  • @11zoomzoom11 Yep.

  • @zeldafanboy23ify No that not true that impossible! Kidding kidding. Everyone has different opinions. 

  • @zeldafanboy23ify YES i'm not the only one who thinks this is better than OoT.

  • I think this is my favorite Zelda game, even though I couldn't beat it (Puppet Ganon's freaking snake form... ugh, so hard to hit).

  • i can beat the wind temple in 15 minute's

  • This game is so underrated i swear,best game on the gamecube

  • Does anyone wish that the next new zelda game should be cell shaded  in 3d like this one but all different or something? Like a Minish cap remake or some badass prequel? I hope Nintendo takes ideas.

  • lol over 50 islands? 7 x 7 = 48

  • @OshawaStateOfMind Sorry but it's 49.

    I see your point though and I say this game's so good that when you're playing, you tend to forget simple 1st-grade math lol. I could've sworn that the islands were 8 x 8. @_0

  • One of my most favorite games of all time. There wasn't a single part I didn't like. I even enjoyed sailing. The loneliness and calming feeling I got when crossing the vast blue and beautiful ocean never got old for me. Also, getting your own island was pretty freaking awesome.

  • @AFredCalledFred i agree when i first got this i didnt think i'd like it due to the looks but it is a really good game and enjoying to play

  • 1st gannon breaks loose sever of times before and after wind waker 2nd how can this be many many many many many many times if link is 5 years younger and did hyrule drown in in other loz no! and it was only 1 fish did you think all fish knew you and called you small fry

  • looking for those eight shards is just ***** **

    the first time it cost me at least a week to gather them all

    but i didn't now those shards where hiding in the water

    just ****** anoying

  • CJ, I was patient with the Wind Temple and enjoyed the puzzles and it has my favorite boss in the series Molgera. I want a home console sequel. I didn't like Phantom Hourglass that much, but I did like Spirit Tracks. It's my favorite game on the gamecube. I consider TP a Wii game. The sailing isn't bad after you learn how to warp and YES I hate the triforce sidequest. I hate Tingle because of that sidequest.

  • OK I watched Chuggaconroy's Let's play of this game. Played through the whole game again and thought it was a TAD bit better than Ocarina of Time but not as good as Twilight Princess. It's my second favorite in the series and I don't want any OoT fanboys flaming me for this, this was the first zelda game I ever played and I had an emotional conection to it. You may have had an emotional connection to Oot, well I had a connection to WW.

  • Well, I have not played this game. But that's only because I do not have the appropriate system to play it on at the current moment. However, I have seen my brother play it, and it is neat. Can't say that I ever will play it. Maybe if I get a Wii one day I might consider buying or downloading it.. But that could still be a long way off. Plus there's (shudders) Tingle. I don't know what Nintendo was thinking when they put him into the game.

  • and i thought hyrule field from OoT/MQ was long and tedious.........

  • they need to remake it for wii or dsi

  • How about an actual sequal to majora's mask....THE ORGINAL LINK seeing as Majora's mask is the sequel to ocarina and it is still the same link

  • why does everyone complain about how long it takes to cross the ocean in this game. For one thing it isnt that long and two once you learn the right melody you can simply warp to where you need to be or close by to it at least. Come on people lets use our brains.

  • 49 different islands.

  • Favorite zelda game, best bosses best music and great storyline

    Best boss my opinion is last one

  • it's a good game but i hate the cartoon like graphics well yes i got used to them in time but still didn't completely get over it, i'm much more a fan of the realistic look of ocarina of time and even link to the past to some extent even tho it's 2d, i mean twilight princess was gorgous and more serious and dark!!

    it's still love it but to me it's 4th best in the series

    1st link to the past

    2nd ocarina of time

    3rd twilight princess

    then finally wind waker

  • I thought the Wind Temple's music was very fitting, but that's just me. Anyway, awesome review! Best I've seen so far for WW!

  • Your review convinced me to order this game. Thanks! It's not here yet, but it's my first LoZ game, here's to that.

  • Definitely my favorite Zelda game of all time

    There are so many islands and things to do, and I love the designs!

  • Love love love love looooooooveee to this game!!It´s my number 1 favorit of all the zelda games.(i have not played the like 4 or 5 first 2D games. I love everything about it!Except Makar!He is just PISSING ME OF!!Love your video!

    No,i love all of your zelda videos!!

  • im glad you reviewed this, it's my favorite game of all time and you seem to have given all the right info to a person who is thinking of buying this

  • Your welcome.

  • @cjszero01 hey it my 3rd favorite too. After Oracina of Time and Twilight Princess. Can't wait for the new zelda wii to come out. The wind Temple was hard but the boss fight against Molgera made up for everything and that's why it's one of my favorite dungeons.

    Molgera was my fav boss fight

  • I also like the hookshot.

  • @NinjaNermal i agree this game was absolutely flawless its my fav game evar

  • I'm on Gamespot alot and most people who play Zelda say this is there favourite (besides Oot if not that came second) I never got the chance to play this game :(

    I really want to though.

  • @MoreThanOurMemories

    Oh man, you don't know what you're missing. :)

  • dude your not really missing much ok

  • i love this game so much its my faveorite gamecube game and second to fave zelda game

  • That's my favorite boss from this game too. :)

  • good review, covered everything without spoilers

  • Hey cjszero01 there is a warp song

  • Yes, but you can't learn it until you get the arrows. Plus there are a lot of areas you can't warp to.

  • Yea i know i almost beat the game but i hate the stupid last quest with the triforce shards btw nice review.

  • Thanks. :)

  • Btw what is your favorite zelda game.

  • I cant wait just bought a cube on ebay with this game!

  • @legomyegoyo you could of just bought a wii

  • And I do have a wii

  • Question: why are it's sequels on DS only? Another thing: Why are the DS sequels completely controlled by the annoying stylus? It's frustrating and my hand cramps after twenty minutes using that stupid stick.

  • Yep

  • @PKMN37

    The reason the sequels are on the DS is because most of the Americans and the regions around it don't accept cartoon or childish looking games. We prefer the realistic "WHERES MY F***ING WIFE!", guts flying out types of games. Where else Japan really don't give a damn. The more realistic the game, the better it'll sale outside Japan.

    This game has a great artistic style and a masterpiece, but we tent to look elsewhere and judge something by it's cover.

    Unfortunately that's how it works.

  • its sad. ITS CEL SHADED WHY DONT YOU JUST SUE NINTENDO

  • @PKMN37 I see where you're going and don't you wish you could just use that convenient-looking D-pad on the side? It would at least be nice to have the option of using the buttons.

  • @PKMN37 Answer: Because the DS is awesome, and Spirit Tracks is better than Wind Waker.

    Answer: That never happens to me, so maybe that's something wrong with your hand and not the game.

  • One thing that helps pass the annoying sailing is when you beat the tornado frog, then you can travel by tornado to most any location

  • The reason for the triforce was Nintendo was not finished with the game. There were supposed to be 2 more dungeons.

    But, to avoid fanboy hate mail that added that in to get it out before the release date.

  • I love the graphic

  • This game got me hooked on the series. My first Zelda and gamecube game. Good times. Good times.

  • The first tim I played the wind temple it was confusing, the second time I cnquerd it 100% without even noticed. And it turns to be a boring temple. I like the boss battles.

  • I played this game a few times through and I don't like it! :D I grew up with zelda; she's like my big sister. I spent thousands of hours playing many of the games to death and could go into detailed analysis over why this game is poor. In short though, I do not like it because it seems tiny. The boating gets very, very boring and making the game an ocean seems like a lazy trick to save time, effort, and money.

  • @SodaLovingScaly I don't think the ocean was a lazy trick, I thought it was a nice change of pace.

  • @SodaLovingScaly Personally, I loved this game. I enjoyed the sailing because it gave a sense of exploration and it felt like the most adventurous Zelda. It wasn't 'poor' if it got good scores, dude (or dudette). But that's your opinion and this is mine. =)

  • old times:)

  • I think this has the best final boss in the series. OOT's looks the coolest, but along with TP's, was too easy.

  • Comment removed

  • this is my favitore zelda game I love the art sklye and the music
