I beat the game this evening and must say that the ending made the whole thing worth it. Sure the game really ground down to sail's pace once you had to collect the Triforce pieces, but really that's a short segment of the game.
The final "temple", Ganon's maze and the final fight were loads of fun. Although I hated Snake Ganon... He got so many cheap hits on me by pinning me on a wall, but in the end I won with 3/4 of a heart left. Phew!
I too used a glitch
But the one I used was less special than Ghost's. I used the Skull Hammer through walls in the Private Oasis maze.
Oh... to anyone who watched GrayGhost's video. Why does this person have a deep manly voice and painted finger nails? Ewww....

Beat Puppet Ganon's 3 forms last night. Stuck in Zelda's bed chamber. Not as fun as it sounds.
UPDATE: So I had to climb the red rope. This is the first thing I tried after beating Ugly-Puppet-Snake-Ganon, but I didn't realise that you had to hold ZR to keep the rope still. This is the first time I have had to climb a rope

for the whole game.

Although, on reflection it would explain why the first room of Ganon's Tower was so tough.

Agree with the ZR climbing bit. You're taught the mechanic, but I don't remember using it until the final boss battle.

I'm bummed that you get the light arrows so darn late in the game.

His nails are painted to make them easier to see during his speed runs. Check out some of his other videos, or this profile of him on polygon:

I actually lucked out with snake Ganon. Kept my distance and patiently shot the orb from a distance. It was very satisfying each time I connected. I didn't have to stun him once!

I made a lot of progress over the weekend. I'm currently inside the Wind Temple, so I guess after that will be the dreaded Triforce hunt. Fortunately, through my excessive sidequesting, I've already found all three Triforce charts and a couple of the shards, so I'll have a headstart when I actually start hunting for them.
Did anybody else feel like the Wind Temple was a drag? I'm only a few rooms into it, so I haven't come close to completing it yet, but I haven't been enjoying this one so far. Surprising since I enjoyed the Earth temple quite a bit. I don't know, maybe I just wasn't in a 'Zelda' frame of mind last night when I was trying to play it....

DONE!!!
The final Ganon fight was satisfying, if a little frustrating....

So you're telling me...

..You covet the wind?
His behavour throughout this fight was really good, from the way he came at you without warning when the fight started, to sucker punching you if you just sat there and blocked, to identifying Zelda as a priority threat and taking her out. The final phase (aka. awesome finisher) was a pain because the final trigger wouldn't appear. I used four faeries across 2 attempts on this last hit (last time I used a faerie was in either Tower of the Gods or Forest Haven).
The ending was awesome- not only because of the finishing move against Ganondorf, but the music being played during the King's speech (a sombre rendition of the Hyrule Castle theme from LttP, called "Farewell Hyrule King") gave me just as much satisfaction.
PS. Ganondorf is a cool villain in this game, the stylised model managing to provide different levels of malevolence and character, but I would say that "Puppet Gannon" did not look very good in this style.

Nice job, Raidou! I reading about enjoyed your take on the final moments of the game. The last battle with Ganondorf and Ganon were very climactic and tense. Unlike all previous bosses, you definitely had to have a strategy in order to win.
And that final monologue from the king!
Happy you liked the game!

I just finished the Wind Temple last night. Yeah, this was probably my least favorite dungeon in the game. I thought the boss fight was pretty disappointing too. Giant worm creature and all you do is swat at the dingly-dang hanging out of his mouth? I feel like there was supposed to be more to this boss fight but it may have been cut short due to lack of time. I'm also pretty sure that the fire and ice mountains in the game were originally planned to be full fledged dungeons but were cut out because of time constraints.
Anywho, I've got five more Triforce shards to track down, and I'll probably track down the rest of the heart pieces and other extra goodies before taking on the endgame. I see a few of you have already beaten the game, so looks like I'm playing catch up. I'm sure I'll have this game beat sometime this weekend, if not earlier.

Yes. Hookshot it to bring it closer to you, then slash like crazy.

How many hearts do you have? If you've got around 14 you'll be fine. Just have a bottled fairy or two going into the final fight. Good luck! Not that you'll need it. The end game isn't super hard.

Yeah, I've got 18 out of 20 heart containers already, I'm just a completionist.

Just kidding. It's cool. Have fun with the rest of the game.

Hehe, it can be a bit of a curse sometimes. But when it comes to adventure/RPG games, I like exploring everything and getting the most out of the game.
Back to Wind Waker. I glued the Triforce back together and am just finishing up the last bit of extras that I'm going to bother with. I feel I should point out that either my strategy guide was mistaken or I read it wrong regarding the Blue ChuChus achievement, because there are definitely more than 19 of them. I just checked a Zelda Wiki and apparently there are 23 in total.

I finished Wind Waker over the weekend. This game was never my favorite in the series, and the Wii U version didn't change my mind about that, but it's still a solid title. I had wanted to play this since I got my Wii U, so now I can finally cross it off my list
