I started to tear up when I saw this news. Being my favorite Zelda game and favorite video game of all time, it sure made me feel…lots of feels. And what better way to celebrate than by going to Zelda Symphony tomorrow? Yes, today is the birthday of The Wind Waker, the best Zelda game in my eyes. However, there’s something much more special about this birthday of the game than any thus far: today marks the
10th anniversary of The Wind Waker’s release in Japan. Yep, you read that right. 10 years ago today, Nintendo released what is possibly the most controversial (graphic-wise, at least) Zelda game to date. Having grew up with the game itself, I’m honestly so surprised at the direction the series as gone, though very happy, and very disappointed. So, happy birthday to my favorite video game of all time! Love you. <3

Yep. It has been 10 years. Remember the first Wind Waker trailer?

There is no better way to celebrate than to see the forest from that trailer playable in game 10 years later.
