Nintendo made a small change to Zelda: Wind Waker HD’s title screen. In the GameCube version, a trailer with footage would appear if you left the game alone for awhile.

That’s been removed in the HD title. Players will find that the prologue loops continuously.

Hardly a major change, but a change nonetheless!

Nintendo’s announcement for The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD Limited Edition listed a MSRP of $54.99. However, GameStop ended up charging consumers $59.99.

Some fans were curious about the discrepancy, and therefore decided to write in to the retailer’s customer service center for answers.

Zelda: Wind Waker HD’s updated visuals aren’t the only presentation aspect that has been reworked. It seems that Nintendo has enhanced the game’s audio as well, making subtle changes to some of the game’s sound effects and in some cases, reworking entire pieces of music.

First, listen to the following sound effect comparisons – first is the original GameCube version, and then the HD version:

As you’ve noticed by this point, the opening chests jingle is renewed, along with the jungle for changing the wind direction. The Gohdan clip as well as the percussion in the Forsaken Fortress track also contain small differences.
