The price of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD has increased at Amazon. Last week, the game was listed on the online retailer for $49.99, but it now costs $59.99 – the standard price for most Wii U titles. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD is a remake of a game that was originally released over 10 years ago on the Nintendo GameCube. It will include new features, like the ability to play the game off-TV on the Wii U GamePad, and the ability to take in-game pictures to share with Miiverse users. The remake will be released in October.

        1. Hey clown! That’s what you would think. Unfortunately, too many social rejects try to make-believe Nintendo is some sort of magical perfect entity with no issues whatsoever.

          1. I try to get any system if they get the games, i’m getting a xbox one for KI, ps4 for sony exclusives and third party, nintendo for nintendo titles and third party titles. I don’t have pc because i can’t find the time to build one yet. Tring to get college and get a nice job

            1. Killer Instinct…really…really now…really? Your supporting that shit? You get 1 character…EVERY OTHER CHARACTER COSTS LIKE $5 EXTRA….

          2. “Hey clown! That’s what you would think”.

            No, that what we do know.

            Heh, yeah you keep thinking that troll. Real clown is someone like you who don’t understand a bit of gaming.

                1. I can see that…

                  This guy is so full of himself and actually spends alot of time hating our Empire…

                  He must be lonely with his precious Xbox…

          3. Says the social reject, wasting time putting down nintendo on a nintendo news site.
            I have a pc ps3 and wii u and i’ll enjoy all of them for they’re own unique exclusives and features thank you very much.

        1. Hey clown! If you enjoy wasting $60 on games that don’t last as long as games on Steam that are often less than $40, then you’ll soon find your wallet as empty as a black hole.

            1. He probably spent all his money on his PC itself with no money left for games, and thus went here out of boredom..

          1. No seriously, you’re like in your mid-late 20s going around and does nothing in his spare time but bash Nintendo(And Sony sometimes) because you love the trill of people raging and it turns you on. Look! We get it PC is stronger then the Consoles and etc. but a true gamer plays any type of games and has fun with it. You just seemed to be an angry PC fan that doesn’t like the fact that the consoles are getting attention while PC doesn’t really get news. Or you’re just angry because they didn’t please you so you decided to vent out by bashing a console(s). And don’t say Nintendo is going down because the 3DS is the main attention for 3-4 months now and has backed up Nintendo well. Now of course you’re gonna give me a negetive comment and to that I say…
            Do your worse, I dare you I double dare you mother fucker!

          2. Who the hell spends $40 dollars for a game on Steam? (Let alone $50, $60, $70, $80, $90). I’ve buy all my games cheap as hell on Steam. Brought the Tomb Raider collection for $22.49 – I haven’t even brought a $30 dollar game yet.

        1. I’ve no shame to call’ith mine wiiu master race.
          Surely Thine’s Pc is enhanced, but thou love’th thine’s wiiu most of all. Does’th Thou Not Agree?

            1. So does’th thou.
              Wiiu does not get it’s respect, it’s surely due.
              Wiiu is a great console, but thou is blinded by the light of rivalry against thine’s ally of gamers. :(

              1. I think and am pretty certain that the upcoming games like SM3DW, Bayonetta 2 and Mario Kart 8 will give the Wii U the respect it deserves from even the most biased haters…

                  1. No need’ith of thanks, you surely deserve’ith complements for enjoyable and entertaining art. :)

                          1. I’m thinking of replacing my legally obtained Windows 8 with pirated Win 7, that had no problems what so ever.

                            Windows 8 is shit.

                        1. dirty console peasants, only playing games for ‘fun’
                          HOW DARE THEY?!
                          oh how ignorant they are, unknowing of pc’s graphics.
                          soon, the consoles shall fall and the console sheep shall open their eyes to the true master race
                          and it will be glorious
                          HEIL GABEN!

                    1. Pingback: Wind waked at 59.99 now! Lol

                    2. People before u blow the comments wait til nintendo confirms a price, it should happen next month or early sept

                    3. Western retailers are such hypocrites…

                      1. They lower the price of a new console.

                      2. They raise the price of a remake.

                      If High Command is behind this price, I won’t buy this game untill it’s atleast 35% cheaper…

                          1. Well ok, but I did try to make it easier for ya…there is soooo many games I want to try coming out…I’m gonna try and put them all on reserve and layaway. But mainly, get my 3ds back with my abassitor(?) program back.

                                1. I hope High Command makes it a bit easier to get your downloaded games back…

                                  However many should blame themselves for losing them in the first place (not saying you lost yours)…

                                  I too am thinking about switching to an 3DS XL when Pokemon Y arrives…

                                    1. My 3DS was stolen last year and I had to go file a police report for Nintendo – the biggest hassle was probably the wait at the precinct to give my statement, because some crazed mom couldn’t get in touch with her teenage daughter and everyone was trying to calm her down. (To make a long story short, the daughter’s phone was turned off and she ended up calling her mom from a Wendy’s while I was still at the station.)

                                      BUT once I got home and had a new 3DS XL, Nintendo’s part went smoothly over the phone/email, and they transferred over the Ambassador Program, a ticket to redownload Four Swords, and store credit for every digital purchase I’ve made. So yeah, worth it!

                    4. I’ll buy it for the sake of seeing the improvements.
                      The sailing, for one, is something I’m looking forward to, now that there’s a way of significantly speeding up the travel rate.

                    5. those useless features aren’t even close to justify the $60 price tag. looks like I’m buying this game second hand.

                        1. I haven’t seen you around, welcome to MNN. And I think the Wii U is awesome, yes it can use more games to drive sales but those games are almost here.

                            1. Lost Wolrd looks really good, my brother is getting it but I’ll play it too since watching someone play a game isn’t the same as playing it yourself. What’s your Miiverse ID thing?

                    6. Does anybody really take these online prices serious when games aren’t even released yet? I sure don’t.

                      Also, I don’t consider being able to “play the game off-TV on the Wii U GamePad” an added feature. So you can look at a small screen instead of the TV. It doesn’t add anything to the game itself.

                      1. I somewhat agree, .

                        Though Off-TV is very convenient for those that do not have a TV, it doesn’t add any real feature other than making you play the game more comfortable if you don’t want to sit or stand all the time…

                        To this day the only games that truly show anything that can be considered Wii U gameplay are ZombiU, Nintendoland, Black Ops 2, Sonic Racing Transformed and Batman…

                        Other than that there are no games that use the Gamepad as it was intended too…

                        Menus, Maps and inventory doesn’t say anything to me as you could have done it on the Gamcube/GBA era…

                        1. Yeah, and I wonder when Nintendo will ever put that AR scanner thing on the Gamepad to use? Hmm……

                    7. Who cares?!!!! Nintendo should just release good games and i’m good to go. I’ll drop my bank on them if necessary!!

                    8. I don’t see why this should be full price. They didn’t even have to work on level design, storyline, etc. It does not cost that much to make a remake.

                    9. now if that isn’t an indication that amazon has absolutely no idea what the price will actually be i don’t know what is

                    10. see ya guys….. a bridge, seems like a few of you want me to do something like that. over a plastic box and a corporation. over that you want someone to die and have them do that to themselves. sounds fun.

                      1. If people wants to commit suicide because of such pathetic reasons then I couldn’t care less, that’s their funeral…

                        Only proves how weak they are…

                        1. yeah but you dont know who you may be talking to, do you, nobody knows. yet you want somebody to die…… over a plastic box and a worthless money grabbing corporation. it makes me sick. over a fucking plastic box. your saying you want somebody or you hope somebody would like blow there brains out and you would be happy about it.

                          1. half the time.. no … most of the time i have absolutely no fricking idea what the hell you’re even talking about.. and i doubt i’m alone

                    11. So, because they have lost a fuck ton of money they decide to put prices up… Higher prices, less sales.. What is wrong with nintendo, I’m sick of their shit and I’m a huge fan.

                    12. I still find that this should’ve been at least $40.
                      Sure this is HD and one or two added features but why sell at full price for a game that came out 10 years ago?

                    14. I think it’s only Amazon charging the extra 10, though I was still going to get it at Gamestop or Toys R Us anyway. They are bound to have like a giftcard at TRU like some of the new releases.
