Well, I guess we'll find out soon enough. I just hope for a Twilight Princess port.

Eh, I'd rather have a HD remaster of that for Wii U if we get TP. They did a good job with Wind Waker.

 

[Benstamania]

Yeah that's what I'm saying.. Give us TP and even tho I didn't love it.. SS had. Master a collection 2.

I want a Hd TP on wii u so so bad. TP is the second best Zelda behind only time so I want it badly.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I don't think we'll see another Zelda on Wii U after this one coming. We might, but we already got Wind Waker, Hyrule Warriors, and this upcoming one. Who knows though, can never tell with Nintendo.

 

[Sithborg]

I think the best we can hope for is a second Hyrule Warriors.

 

[Thundercrack85]

I'll be happy with Zelda Wii U. I still have my Wii versions of both SS and TP.

Plus Majora's Mask... I'm pretty satisfied with the current lineup.

But if they can put modified Wii games on the New 3DS, then TP just seems like the next logical candidate (well, after Galaxy, anyway). Then again this is Nintendo so logic goes out the window.

 

[X Knight]

I'm surprised they haven't released an HD Wii U remake of Skyward Sword.

With the exception of the SNES, every Nintendo home console has gotten two original mainline Zelda games. I don't know if we'll see another HD remaster or not, but odds are we'll see another Zelda game. It's one of those franchises that will pretty much always sell 3-4 million copies no matter what hardware they end up on. They'll probably do what they did with Majora's Mask and reuse the engine for Legend of Zelda Wii U, which will cut the development time in half. I think Hyrule Warriors 2 is a safe bet, too. HW sold above expectations, and those games are cheap and quick to make since they rely heavily on recycling aspects from the previous game.

Why? They've yet to remaster any Wii games, and Skyward Sword is one of the later Wii releases.

Well, to be fair, you're using your own internal logic as well. The two Wii games that we've seem ported/downported to the 3DS are Donkey Kong Country Returns and Xenoblade Chronices. Outside you simply wanting it, I don't really see any kind of pattern to suggest that TP is a next logical step. It's more logical to expect more N64 remasters since the 3DS has had three and that is better suited for the 3DS/New 3DS to handle. If anything, it makes much more logical sense to expect Twilight Princess to get a HD remaster on the Wii U, since we got Wind Waker already, and the hardware is more suited for it.

I think the game is not old enough. The game is only a little over 3 years old. I wish instead of having wind waker hd and maybe another Zelda hd in the futchure that we could just get a collection of like 5 Zelda games for like 150 or something.

Actually my thinking was that if they could adapt Wii games to the New 3DS, they would port / adapt the most successful ones (hence Galaxy).

Though a HD remaster of Twilight Princess would also be logical. But I have actually come around to your argument that Wind Waker HD may be the only game of its kind. A lot of people were expecting a Wii U remaster of Sunshine, but there hasn't even been a hint of that, or any other Gamecube game.

 

[Benstamania]

I hated the hell out of Sunshine.

 

[Doc Ock]

I'd love to see a remaster of Skyward Sword if a alternate non-motion control scheme is included.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I agree. I actually liked everything about Skyward Sword except the controls. It gets a lot of hate online, but I thought it was a solid game (except for those goddamn motion controls).

Oh good I thought I was in trouble dissing the motion controls here! Yeah I think I would liked the go so much more if I could use regular controls, I think alot of people would go easier on it if motion controls wasn't the only choice. I think the game looks great, I just have so much difficulty playing it.

I suck at motion controls, I love Super Mario Galaxy until I have to point at the screen to grab things!

 

[Benstamania]

That's pretty much it for me. I couldn't get past those awful motion controls. Glad that era is behind us...

 

[Matt Mortem]

If I could have played Skyward Sword with the Classic Controller Pro that game would be pretty high on my list of favorite Zelda titles. I tried getting through Twilight Princess on Wii before getting frustrated and going back to the trusty Gamecube version. Motion controls should be optional in a game like that. No doubt about it.

Oh will with Twilight Princess you can turn the motion controls off to the point to where you only need to slightly swipe to swing your sword it's great. I do prefer the gamecube version but man the Wii version with the motion turned off was like easy mode due to the third person aiming. You just use the numb chuck stick to aim it was so easy to ridiculous level. I remember being a master with the bow.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

I actually like the motion controls, for both TP and SS.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

I'm glad to see people like Skyward Sword. I kept hearing/reading people complaining about it. It was a fun game, and my second favorite of the series. (First being Twilight Princess)

 

[Doc Ock]

There's always that guy.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

SS had my favorite visuals so far. It looks like the Wii U Zelda game is taking the visual foundation created in SS and ramping it up.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I thought TP's motion controls were pretty eh. It was obviously very basic and tacked on, you could tell playing the GCN version that's how the game was meant to be played. I was fine with Skyward Sword's motion control, though. It was much improved. I prefer tradtional controls still, but I found SS perfectly playable.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I played TP both the Wii and GC versions. The latter was better.

 

[Thundercrack85]

And that's cool. But give us the option to play it with a conventional controller. I can't imagine that'd be very hard to do for Nintendo.

 

[Tron Bonne]

I understand why TP didn't do that. The GCN version was a (soon to be) option, and they wanted games that used their new controller. Giving the option would be both redundant and undercutting to what you want to achieve at a console's launch.

SS, though, yeah. I really don't know why they couldn't have used all the options available. Even just GC compatibility like they did with Smash and Mario Kart would have been sufficient. But I think Galaxy also lacked the option for traditional controls, so who knows what the train of thought was.
