I only purchased because it was marked down to $19.99 with other Nintendo Selects games. I didn't like the original for GCN, but the new Wii U version is far superior. Without the Swift sail (exclusive to Wii U), exploring the ocean would've been more of a task.

If you have a Wii U and like Zelda games, this is a must-own. The graphics are stellar, and pull off the cartoonish look without being corny. The gameplay is intuitive and the story is Nintendo-typically-excellent. The price is a bargain.

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker was fantastic on the Gamecube. The HD remake of it for Wii U is absolutely beautiful. And you can't beat the price of the Nintendo Selects. So it should be pretty easy to decide to pick this up.

Great game and at a great price as part of the Nintendo Selects line. The animated style makes it almost like playing an animated Link as a video game. The graphics look much better and brighter in this HD edition.

HD update of a classic

As if this game wasn't wonderful the first time around, Zelda the Windwaker HD is even better now. The graphic improvements are obvious and beautiful, but it's much more. Significant quality of life upgrades that really take advantage of the Wii U controller. Item selection, mapping the seas, even sharing photos with other collectors for those that want to pursue the often tedious task of completing the in game photo gallery. Targeting with the grappling hook, boomerang, and other items is much easier now thanks to the dual joysticks, and gyroscope. A slight learning curve compared the the original Gamecube controls, but worth every penny. A shame this system never realized its full potential, but this game is a must own.

Leged of Zelda was one of the games back in the day on the nintendo that started me with RPGs and D and D. Todays version reminds me of the original but with a different take. Graphics are so so, the story seems to be engrossing. Game play for the most paet is bug free. The kids and wife have played it non stop since we purchased it and enjoy it. Decent take on a classic.

If you have a Wii U, then this game is a must have at $19.99. The art style is classic, and the improvements to the gameplay and lighting system make for a more enjoyable experience from the GameCube version.

I used to play Windwaker on the Gamecube years ago. I couldn't believe that I could buy it for only $20. Not only that, it is remastered. The game is amazing! Highly recommend it to anyone who owns a Wii U.

The original was fantastic but severely underrated back in the day. This HD remake really shows how beautiful the game's art style is. Whether or not you played the original, this game is worth playing

A reason to use your Wii U

As a less than satisfied Wii U owner, I have to say that this game is AMAZING! It makes me sad that Nintendo mistreated the console or it's owners. (Netflix in the beginning was the BEST on a Wii U, until it started only mirroring the images on both screens)
I digress, this remake of the GameCube classic gives brand new life into the game! The colors POP! This is a fantastic game, it has never looked better and the use of the second screen is spot on! The definitive edition!
If you own a Wii U, and you don't own this game...you're in luck. Now it's only $19.99! Go get this game, and dust off the Wii U!!!
