Is it just me or does the game look kind of low budget?New trailer was shown at NYCC. Gives some plot details:

I think it is just the N64 looking art style for the cut scenes. I saw the game in person and the overhead perspective looks very nice. Of course this could be just because I am so used to the LttP graphics.Is it just me or does the game look kind of low budget?
I thought it was mentioned a whileback that most dungeons could be completed in any order. I haven't finished LttP yet (been near the end on the gba version since it came out).I think it is just the N64 looking art style for the cut scenes. I saw the game in person and the overhead perspective looks very nice. Of course this could be just because I am so used to the LttP graphics.
So do you guys think this game will follow the exact same structure as LttP? 3 dungeons to start and then Master Sword then Lorule/Hyrule combo with a bunch of other dungeons? I always thought that a game like this should have 10-12 "real" dungeons and a gigantic overworld to explore. I'm still a bit worried that this won't feel like a completely new game.
WTF is with this picture on the product page?Gamestop is throwing in an Oracle of Seasons dl code when you preorder. Not as cool as the musical treasure box the UK is getting.

$5.99How much is Season eshop worth? I think I wait just wait for another promo.
It's hard to get excited about it since I have the original carts but I guess it would be nice to be able to just have them on the 3DS.How much is Season eshop worth? I think I wait just wait for another promo.
As do I. I've beaten Ages and Seasons as well as the linked versions so don't really need to play them again on 3ds.It's hard to get excited about it since I have the original carts but I guess it would be nice to be able to just have them on the 3DS.
Sitting on 3DS store credit and was on the fence... This article pushed me forward, Def picking this up next FriSome good, spoiler free impressions from Kotaku after five hours of playing it:

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/128855-Legend-of-Zelda-A-Link-Between-Worlds-Tweaked-for-2DS...when Nintendo announced the 2DS, it may have made Zelda fans wary of how the game will run on the non-3D platform.
Not to worry, says Aonuma, as the game's puzzles were tweaked when they heard about the 2DS. He stresses that "It's not that you can't play it with 2D, it's just that it becomes clearer when you have the 3D effect on." Aonuma explains that "We found out about the 2DS during development, not before, and we also made changes so that we were sure that you could still play and solve the puzzles only with 2D. It's definitely still playable in 2D."
I think this is a hard thing to comment on. I did get this, and can give some general comments, I guess. The paint is nice quality, in my opinion. It is at least on par with my silver DS lite. Where the silver DS lite (and the white I first had) have a very glossy exterior, the Zelda 3ds is more semi-gloss or satin. The interiors feel pretty similar, with the gold perhaps being a bit nicer.Can anyone who picked up the Zelda 3DS XL edition comment on the gold paint on the inside of the unit? I really would like to get this but my concern is that over time that paint is just going to start coming off, especially around or near the D-Pad and buttons.
The dungeons are pretty linear, the puzzles I've played so far I wouldn't even call difficult. Some of you have way different opinions about this game then I do, I just got into the 2nd dungeon in Lorule to show where I'm at. I don't like that fact that you can pretty much explore every piece of Hyrule from the beginning and full weapons from the start?!/! I'm at a point where the game seems like it's changing but I still have to play through it more to see if starts becoming more enjoyable.I just saved after entering the first dungeon and poking around a bit. I could explore the overworld for hours trying to find differences from LttP! So far so good although I'm not sure how I feel about being just handed the bow and arrow. Also, are we not supposed to find maps in the dungeons? That would be a bit disappointing as I like feeling a little lost until gaining access to the map in each dungeon.
This is how I feel as well. Just exploring the overworld without something forcing me to go somewhere is really refreshing. After about an hour of messing around I stumbled across what I needed to stumble across in order to advance things. No guide/walkthrough required! It's great.Haven't gotten much time in yet but this game feels familiar and new all at once.
