Kounan Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The icon they provide doesn't match how they do the Wii games though. It's a specific icon. Plus, in the extracted title list, it apparently says The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD, so... I have no clue about this, but I am with you on this one :D. Would look great on the Gamepad though. So even the same version would look good on da pad? That actually would probably make me buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Not gonna deny a HD TP re-release would tempt me back in, it's about time for another playthrough. I wonder if it'd be digital only to keep costs down and to satisfy those who want a slice of Wii U Zelda this Christmas as Zelda U is definitely gonna slip onto the next system.

Dcubed Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Listings were discovered for Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Other M and Skyward Sword as well (presumably as Wii downloads). I still think that TP HD is some sort of mistake/test/typo/whatever. Doesn't make sense to me to have a HD Remaster of TP and not Skyward Sword as well. Also it doesn't really make sense from the standpoint of past Zelda remakes either. With previous remakes in the Zelda series, they specifically wanted to make them so that they could go back and make certain changes to things that the designers had regrets over. With Link's Awakening DX, it was colour. With OoT 3D, it was the Water Temple. With MM 3D, it was the lack of signposting and hints (as well as some of the bosses) and with Wind Waker HD, it was the Triforce Shard hunt and the sailing speed (ALTTP was a port, rather than a remake, and was packaged in alongside a brand new game so that doesn't count). What big regret have the designers at Nintendo publically stated that they had about Twilight Princess? There isn't one (outside of the lack of orchestrated music, but that's hardly a reason for them to revisit the game really). Perhaps a point could be made about there being a lack of a "definitive" version by virtue of the Wii version not including the option for traditional controls, but that's a pretty flimsy reason to justify the expense of a remake/remaster really when they could just re-release both in their original form and be done with it. It's not like them to pump out outsourced re-releases at retail with boosted visual fidelity and nothing else. If they were going to do that to pad out the Wii U's release schedule, they would've already done that with the likes of Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 (which they have instead already re-released in their original form as Wii downloads in various regions).

Glen-i Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) So, Twilight Princess has now shown up on the Japanese eShop database. EDIT: DAMNIT @Dcubed! Stop Groudongating this! And it's also listed as Twilight Princess HD... http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=181631205&postcount=217 Still not entirely convinced, don't wanna get my hopes up too much. But I would be happy to eat humble pie on this. Edited October 14, 2015 by Glen-i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 So even the same version would look good on da pad? That actually would probably make me buy it. TP looks terrible on a large screen, so it should look better (sharper?) on the small Gamepad screen. Maybe. Also it doesn't really make sense from the standpoint of past Zelda remakes either. With previous remakes in the Zelda series, they specifically wanted to make them so that they could go back and make certain changes to things that the designers had regrets over. Goat herding. And if they don't, they should. Goat GET! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazza Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 There is one clear, obvious wrong that they need to put right... Shield control! They took it out, that's a fact. And put the Mirror Shield in while you're at it, 'cos I bet you took that out too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Perhaps a point could be made about there being a lack of a "definitive" version by virtue of the Wii version not including the option for traditional controls, but that's a pretty flimsy reason to justify the expense of a remake/remaster really when they could just re-release both in their original form and be done with it. Remember that Nintendo really like releasing games to be as close to the original as possible. Twilight Princess is in a bit of an odd situation where they know some fans will want the GameCube version, others will want the Wii version. So if they're going to combine the two, they may as well alter other things, too. As for cost...it will probably be a "HD port" and not a remake or remaster. There have been loads on 360 and PS3, incredibly cheap to do. It will probably be similar to this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kounan Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 So guys, I have now enough money for Zelda WW (which is the game I want), but, what are the chances (with your experience) that there will be some good offers on the eShop during Halloween and Christmas?

I know you can't know for sure, but a guess would be good . Thx. There will be offers but probably none of them will include Zelda, if there was to be an offer then it would be on for this week surely as a new Zelda game is now out on the 3DS so logic would denote that they'd have a sale on the other games but apparently not. Buy it, play it, love it. : peace: It's a great game, well worth the money in any currency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but I don't have many games, I don't have Mario Kart, Mario World 3D, Monster Hunter, Pikmin 3, Capt'n Toad, Lego Undercover, Yoshi, Hyrule Warriors, Donkey Kong, and many more, but these are the first I want to have from the games that are out (I want also Xenoblade, Fast Racing Neo) so even if I miss on Zelda now, but get let's say two of the games I have mentioned above, I would be happy. Thx for the answer, so I can expect something . PS I haven't finished Darksiders 2 yet, so that's the reason I am waiting with the new game, as I want to finish this one and play a bit more of Rayman.
