Awesome game. The ocean world is different even though sailing is long and boring. The dungeons are fun to explore and the art style is a feast for the eyes.

Such an awesome, tranquil game with true artistic talent, you must replay this game again on Wii U or experience it for the first time. From the story to the music to the overall feel of the game it is a unified and glorious presentation. I wish they would do another Zelda game in this style.

Having the Wind Waker getting a graphical increase to HD for the Wii U is spectacular and even if you have the original version for the Gamecube, I highly recommend picking up the game because of how beautiful the game looks and with many great gameplay improvements to the game also!

My niece has beat this about four times. It is addicting. Best part is that since it is not boring, you really do get a lot of use out of it. First time was a lot of internet help, then a little. Now she can beat it with no help. Kids love to watch her play it, like a movie for them.

After being away from my Wii U for a bit, it was fun getting back into the swing of things. We had lots of laughs as I got use to the controls again and kept falling into the water.
Smooth running game, entertaining and so much to do and find.
Zelda fans should give this a try :)

What can I say? This re-release is the definitive version of Wind Waker and comes highly recommended to any video game fan. The graphics and sound have never been better and the game is amazing. If you haven't played it or want to own the greatest version of the game, get this now.

This game is a masterpiece. I tried to replay the original, but the controls I just couldn't readjust to. This one have better controls, better camera and is a great use of the gamepad. Yes, you can also continue your adventure off screen. Must buy for Wii U owners. :)

I have this game for the GameCube but could not give up the chance to get this on the Wii u. Game play is actually better on the GameCube in my opinion but the remastered graphics on this console are insane! Just the graphical improvement is worth the price alone.

The game is so great that I dediced to buy a second copy, the new reprint with the color cover. Money well spend. Don't let the animation style put you off. I did years ago when it originally came out for GameCube but this remake is even better. Get this game!

If you enjoyed it before on the gamecube, you'll enjoy it even more now. It plays amazing and it's graphics are so vivid and clear HD.
This game's been out for awhile now I can expect this to go out of print soon so make sure you snag it before it's gone for good.

Never would i have guessed that this is a Game Cube game remade for the WII U. This game looks amazing, plays fantastic, and is extremely fun. Buy this game if you are new to the franchise or a big of the series. You'll enjoy even if you have played it before.

The Wind Waker has almost topped as one of my favorite Legend of Zelda games. Beautiful art, great puzzles, and exciting exploration. And the WiiU gamepad makes inventory and map super accessible without pulling you out of the game to manage items.

A have been an avid player of the Zelda series for a long time now and Wind Waker is looking to be in the top 5 Zelda games I have played. The HD release that this is only adds to the appeal of the game and works smoothly with the Wii U controller.

Played the original Gamecube version back in the day and I remember loving the cartoon style. In full 1080p now, it looks better than i ever thought. Great gameplay too, boat stuff is a little annoying but the fast sail takes care of that.

Better than the original

It's better than the original on several points. First, it's high def. Second, Nintendo listened to criticism of the original games and fixed many of the sore points such as some areas taking very long and being very boring to play.
