The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD remake heading for Wii U

Nintendo have confirmed that not only a new Zelda title is underway for the WiiU, gamers will have something older to fill the void. A HD remake of The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker to be exact. The GameCube classic will release for the WiiU in Autumn. This will be more than a simple make over, Wind Waker will make use of the Gamepad in a number of ways – so far confirmed is off TV play.

Little more was announced except this will be the stop gap between now and the new Wii U Zelda that will appear to be a while away. No in game footage has made its way to the internet for the moment, the presumption being a full reveal will be announced at E3. We do have the first images for the game and it is clear that this will be one pretty game.

The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD will be launching in Autumn.
