    I gott this game for my grandson. He is a big Zelda fan and enjoys the diffferent challenge levels. The graphics are high quality and realistic looking. He can play this for hours and rarely needs help. Average price for this type game.

    Played this game many times as a kid, and playing the HD version brought back so many memories. This game improved on everything and I love it. The graphics look a little better, gameplay is flawless. Wind Waker HD is amazing.

    Wind waker for Wii U is awesome! I have the original wind waker for gamecube which I I really enjoyed. The improvements to the game are what made me want to buy it and I definitely enjoyed what Nintendo did with this one.

    This was a HUGE depart from classic Zelda titles, and although this may not be everyone's favorite Zelda game, the WiiU version updates the graphics and controls to make this one a great addition to your library.

    I cannot stress how great this game is. It was fun on the original GameCube, and you would thing that Nintendo wouldn't be able improve on an otherwise perfect game, but The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker looks amazing in HD. Not only that, but the Miiverse function of the Wii U makes it easier for new gamers if they get stuck in the middle of a level. This game keeps the original feel of its first incarnation, but makes minor improvements to make the game more beautiful and friendly for this newer generation.

    This game is a must buy. It is remastered and it shows! The graphics are better than before and presented in HD. I can't get over how beautiful it looks and how great the game play is all while keeping the original feeling there. I also got to say that the annoying things that the original game had have been taken care of in this new version.

    For Zelda fans who have already played the game on the Wii it is so worth it to get the WiiU version. The graphics are beautiful and there is a special feature to sail the boat faster to the destinations.

    This game is a must have for any fan of Zelda. Looks outstanding in HD on the Wii U. I never got to play the original on the Gamecube, so this was a blast to play for the first time with great graphics.

    Looks incredible and the gameplay is much improved. Much like the 64 Zeldas on the 3DS, the use of the touch screen game pad for items is a huge time saver and makes the game flow much more smoothly.

    Take a great game from 2003 and make it better. That's what nintendo did with this classic. If you haven't already played this, or already have and want to revisit, this game is highly recommended.

    The original Wind Waker is one of the best Zelda games in the series, and this HD remake makes it even better. A must play for any Zelda fan, doubly so if you somehow never played the original.

    No matter how angry this game made gamers back in the day, it was always a favorite of mine. The art style is enduring and classic and now it can finally live up to it's full potential.

    Just as fun on the Wii U as it was when it was originally released for the GameCube! The only difference is that this one has better and smoother graphics and smoother controls.

    I skipped this back on GameCube, and while I regret it a bit, the improvements here are well worth the wait. Excellent game, though the world map is a bit bare (not surprising).
