Iwata-Nintendo impressed over MH3 graphics. Zelda team feeling pressure (56k)

Loose translation from Japanese Interview:

---------------------------------------------------------------

"Basically they (MH team) said the wii isn't exactly being known for great graphics, and they understand graphics plays a very important part in a MH player's experience, and a lot of people were doubting how MH would look on a wii. So they had to go the extra mile and tried very very hard. Their goal was to make MH3 to be the best looking game on wii.

Iwata then went on and told them the designers in nintendo were stimulated by how MH3 looks and especially the zelda team were under immense pressure."

---------------------------------------------------------------

Good, GOOD!!! Eiji Aonuma's team under pressure makes me smile.

Cant wait to see what the Zelda crew comes up with. I can see why they feel pressure...

C'MON ZELDA TEAM. SHOW US YOUR KUNG-FU!!!

Holy crap those graphics look amazing!

If Monster Hunter can do that on the Wii I can't wait to see what the Zelda team will do to top that.

Great news, that might mean that the zelda team will try even harder to make it look better

I'm sure Aonuma is taking care of that.

It looks great artistically, but graphically, it looks like a PS2 game.

The PS2 would burst into flames pushing that geometry, lighting and textures.

No, only the Japanese do. So far, for everyone else, it's free, I believe.

Edit: Sorry, no confirmation yet. Information above is false right now. :P

MH3 looks fine, but let's not say it looks better than it does. Artistically, yes, it's nice. Technically? Yeah, on par with PS2 titles.

Wow that looks amazing for a Wii game, I hope the final product looks better than that or at least that good. I hope these weren't bullshots :(mmirza23

If these graphics , make people THAT exciting??!! QQ.... Is like Crysis fart and made MH3... You really mean it by saying Excellent , or amazing graphics??!! Omg... And then i thought graphics doesnt matter to Wiifans .. then they got excited about slightly better graphics than FF10 on PS2 or Guild Wars for PC a 5 years old game.?!! I mean... wth?!! This is ... the amazing?!!

I think you like way more the art than overall graphics quality right? Because many games got great art and bad/decent/just good graphics , and i wont say more for Wii , cause youll think me as a hater , ill tell you an example for PC . WoW...Has great ART , BAD/DECENT graphics overall. So then again what is you like? The art of game or graphics , cause graphics are some years back.. Its just as good as 4-5 years old games... So why this excitement? Dont get it...

I want this game more than a new Wii Zelda.

Sure it won't sell even close to what it would in Japan...

You do understand that the word "graphic" refers to the visual feedback/presentation of a game, the sum of art and tech, dont you?

Why you (and many others) use this word to talk about omgTECH is beyond me.

i really want mh3.. but im not gonna buy a wii just to play 1 game. im sure capcom will make a ps3 version:)( or ill continue to put 200 more hours into my psp versions )

MH3 looks awesome! I can't wait for it to come out in America. If Zelda Wii looks better than MH3, I might cry with joy.

Lol look all these haters.

Some people are mad because it not HD.

Wah Wah, cry on ManBabies.

A million ship people.

Okay, if you really do need to pay to play online, I will not be picking this up.pyromaniac223

You need to pay in Japan. If you live elsewhere, most likely they won't make you pay because they want it to be more accessible and to increase their audience.

All the zelda team needs to do to make it look better than MH3 is to have bloom effects aswell as HDR, and some bumpmaps and a bit more onscreen other than landscape.

Wow! That's impressive ... for a Wii game. ;)
