It Spaceworld 2000,
Nintendo wowed the world
yet again, with the
unveiling of the tiny
GameCube. Many technical
demos were showed to an
amazed crowd, and a lot
of those went on to
become full games. There
was a Zelda reel too,
and this was presumed to
be the new Zelda game,
but one year later
Nintendo surprised the
world with a vastly
different Wind Waker.
In this technical demo,
Link and Ganondorf are
in a dark, highly
detailed room. Ganondorf
taunts Link, and a
spectacular sword fight
ensures. They move
fluidly and
realistically, and at
the time it was hard to
notice flaws in their
character models. The
Master Sword, the weapon
that Link uses, was
especially amazing as it
seemed to reflect
everything in the room
in real time (though it
is clearer now that it
doesn't). |
