I really loved the look of this game when it first came out and definitely appreciated the amount of exploration opportunities there was in this game. The story was great too! The HD remake somehow managed to make this amazing game even better, adding gorgeous HD graphics as well as new mechanics, including a very useful super speed sailing ability. Highly recommended!

Sad how overlooked this game is due to its visual style. It's beautiful to look at, has so much personality, gameplay is easy to get used to since it's so similar to the other 3D classics. I'd recommend it to anyone, it's lighthearted half the time, the other half if full of rich, deep stories and emotions. Not to mention how gorgeous it looks in HD.

Zelda games have always been my favorite but a remaster of windwaker yes please!
The game itself is fun and is good for most ages. It utilizes cartoon graphic style versus just regular 3D. I am ok with that though it adds another layer to the game.
Overall I would recommend this game. It is worth getting now especially for the lowered price.

While I'm typically not one to jump on HD remakes, TLoZ: Wind Waker was one that I was very excited for; not just for the obvious graphical polish it received, but the modernized updates that take full advantage of the WiiU gamepad. Newcomers to the title are sure to enjoy it, while fans of the original should definitely give this remake a look.

Wind Waker was met with quite a bit of backlash from Zelda fans when it was first released, but time has treated this game very well. The HD version on the Wii U brings out the full potential in this game, as well as making some bothersome mechanics from the original easier to deal with. A worthy purchase for any Zelda fan, old or new.

This game looks great in HD, and it's a nice new look for a classic title. Can't beat the price for the Nintendo classic titles either.

One of the prettiest games on the GameCube finally makes its way to the Wii U and gets the HD upgrade it deserves. Simply put, this is one of the best games of all time and deserved to be on a console capable of making it beautiful. One of the essential games that everyone needs in their Wii U collection.

The Gamecube version of this game still holds up extremely well due to the cel shaded graphics. However, the Wii U version really makes the Gamecube version look really outdated. Playing with the gamepad is fun and the creators made the tedious sailing elements much more bearable in this version.

The game is one of the best Zelda games ever and if you find it at a bargain price, this is unbeatable.
The graphics style is extremely adorable, with cartoon like characters and expressions at every frame of the game. A great amount of playtime and a difficulty that is very manageable.

Great game at a price that is almost too good to pass up, especially with the gamerclub reward taking off 20% My only complaint is they tried to add shading to the cell shaded characters, but overall it's still a fairly solid look, just not as good as it was originally.

Zelda is a classic game. My child has gotten hours of time in on playing this game. It is a good clean game for children and adults also. I would recommend this fun game to everyone. It's a great gift to give also. You can have great family fun with this game.

This is the same Wind Waker that you enjoyed on the Gamecube, but with updated graphics and a few tweaks that make the game more enjoyable. The fast sail means that you won't take so long to travel between islands now. Definitely a classic worth buying!

When I first played this game on the GameCube, it has beautiful graphics and colorful dungeons and villages and islands. In the Wii U version, the graphics have been improved to an HD look. I would highly recommend this game to every die hard Zelda fan.

I finished this years ago on the gamecube but had to revisit it. Now that it is only $20 I purchased it and love it as much as the first go around. The updated graphics are nice and controlling the inventory screen off the tablet it a nice fearure
