Skyward Sword Spoilers

what ? no ... you're just making shit up .

you just made all that shit up .

It's called interpretation aka speculation. Of course it's made up, but it's based on the representations of each piece of the Triforce. Maybe you'd have half a mind to join in the speculating fun.

No

See the other topic regarding LoZ villains.

Less hearts, Enemies deal double damage

[RockyRaccoon]

oh , so kind of like regular mode from any other game .

demise was a wimp . i beat him the first time with one hand while eating curry with the other .

you do if you copy it
you retain all bugs and trinkets you had when you defeated demise
no hearts on the field (there's still fairies) unless you have a heart medal (even then, it's rare, there are less heart flowers)
skyward strike retains charging speed and strength from when it was a master sword, becomes faster when forged
can skip all cutscenes
can fight demise in Lightning Round
regular enemies deal double damage, bosses and some minibosses retain damage given

I'm pretty happy there is Hero Mode!
It surprised me!  At first I thought it would just be silly bonus thing like Wind Waker.
Then found about the double damage and lack of hearts and I felt both a feeling of dread and excitement.
This game was about to get a whole lot more fun.
...Then I stopped playing.

[RockyRaccoon]

i stopped playing for about 3 weeks after demise told me that he would wait patiently while i went to go save , collect potions , etc .

after beating him without so much as an elevated heartrate , chances of me ever playing the game again are essentially null .

it was a great game , but it could have been so much more ...

The Triforce is fair game. In OoT, as long as your heart is balanced, you could obtain the full Triforce. SS Link, ALttP Link, LoZ/AoL Link, ALttP Ganon and TWW King Hyrule have all obtained the full Triforce.
When you wish upon a physical Triforce, it goes back to the sacred realm. Ganondorf obtains the Triforce of Power in OoT.
The land below is pre-Hyrule. Apparently, according to the SS manga, it was known as Hylia.
If you rotate the Skyloft map 45 degrees and superimpose it on the TP map, it's a perfect fit. Lake Floria ends up near Ordon so the Parella are just not seen. Lanayru desert becomes Gerudo desert. The land mass not seen is Lanayru Province in TP, so the Zora are just not seen. Kikwis probably become Kokiri.

^ How is this a Skyward Sword spoiler? I didn't even talk about the plot of Skyward Sword.

[RockyRaccoon]

sarah said she didn't want you to spoil it for her so i nullified your attempt to do so .

[dcmjlive]

Still, I didn't spoil anything in Skyward Sword. Everything I said is either something she already knows or something she would have learned/observed/read about in other games.

Thanks to Hyrule Historia, however, I was able to trace how the Triforce went through Zelda history in the games that have been released. Now, this does have spoilers from the games, including Skyward Sword. Consider yourself warned.
