Nintendo Japan has released the Japanese box-art for the critically acclaimed remake of The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker for Wii U. We’ve yet to see what the North American and European box-art of The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD look like, hopefully it will be something similar. The classic game is out in Japan on September 26th.
Thanks, Kyle
Not much news these days..
This case would make an amazing edition to anyone’s wiiu collection though.
I agree the case looks nice.
I really hope North America get this case as well. I am not sure I still want the game though. (I still have the original.)
Alot better than the original…
yeah but they used the walkthrough cover and made it HD…not bad indeed.
Who cares, aslong as it looks nice…
ok, I get ya…heh heh heh.
Still wish they would’ve gone for a golden colored box like the original.
It’s absolutely gorgeous, however since it’s basically a “HD” version of the old Japanese WW boxart, this makes me think we’ll just get a “HD” version of the old Western WW boxart, which would be nowhere near as nice :( This is stunning.
That looks gorgeous, hopefully ours is the same or something equally nice
First
SHUT UP NINTENDO AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!! (tosses money at the monitor)
LOL, thats what I said to capcom for monster hunter 3 U
Here here! *tries to put my bank card on the NFC reader on the gamepad* Just… Scan…. It…. Gawww!!
Nintendo, my NFC is not working!! ;.;
You didn’t swipe it like a crazy kids on the Digimon TV shows!
The graphics looks totally the same except from some lightning,It doens’t deserve a euro
doesn’t*
…It has alot of noticeable upgraded aspects such as, enhanced texture, lighting…. It also looks more smoother…. Hd works wonders…
they also said something about some new features using the gamepad
…I can’t wait for WWHD…
me either…I would be glad to test this version for the better so I can share all around the wonders. Nah, once done, probably just go where the others are and wait. *sarcasm*
gorgeous, Nintendo are doing really nice box arts lately
It’s definitely very detailed and colorful, but it’s so cluttered and generic to me. I honestly much prefer the dynamic monochromatic simplicity of the old Western box art. It was like a sepia-tone photograph of Link’s spirit of adventure captured in-the-moment.
I agree 100%
This art was in the american version. I think it was the book or a promo card
your right, its the walkthrough cover in HD. (nerd talking in me, just ignore this part if you want) I still got a bone to pick with them on the map on earth temple where you see a row of coffins and it leads you to the dead end with a redead…that needs fixing. It’s a zigzag pattern, not a round pattern.

Much better than the plain gold cover of the original Gamecube version.
Yeah, but nothing screams “I’m special” like the golden color. Or so I think. Even if they do it like they did before, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Now if they did that gold coloring to the bundle pack, I’d feel like I got one of the rareest wii u’s ever, or at least the triforce on it.
I hope the New Zelda has a gold disc! :D
*nobbing head* Right? :D
This box art looks really good but, the US box art usually sucks in comparison to the Japanese art. And you know it’s true.
Looks like the art work for the soundtrack disk… Lol
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD asdafksdhjfadlkjhfaksjfghakjdnfmcbvsmndfbgwueih
(words cannot describe my happiness)

looks cool.
That is just beautiful
I always wonder why Japanese boxart has English words on it
TOO COLORFUL FOR MY TASTE. THAT ONE FAN MADE WAS BETTER
dont worry, Jap gets this awesome cover, and we get a crappy one
At least it is not brown. :P
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
(Throws money at eshop buys earthboun…)
IM WAITING
Wow, that’s Purdy!
I….I….I….I….damn u Nintendo. can’t u just give me the cover for now.
Well, I’m picking this up at day one. Although I didn’t enjoy Wind Waker at all when I played it for the first time, I’ll give it a second try.
Good thinking, I think the game takes a while to get into. Mostly because you have no idea where you’re going until you’ve had the fish paint your map. And a lot of the game is just well, sailing the sea. Collecting stuff along the way. At least you can take your time, unlike Majora’s mask…
My memories keep telling me that sailing was indeed boring in WW… I don’t have high hopes it changed in this HD version, but I did change. Maybe this time I can find some joy and fun playing it.
I hope you’re right, and after a while I can get inside it.
well, they did add a faster option for sailing this time. I kinda like sailing but I do get bored of it. Best thing…uh, sorry, spoiler there.
That’s beautiful. :)
now this looks sexy, is it just me, or does the blue case compliment the art cover more than when it was a white case? it might just be me.
ERMAHGERD Y DO TEHY MAK Z3LDA WEAR A FUKIN DRESS? TEHY NED TO MAK HIM MOAR MANLY LIKE MASTAH CHIEF
I’m sorry, I’ve been a bit confused… When is the American release date, and how much will it be?
Thanks :)
Never mind, just did some research (like I should have done in the first place) and I read that both of these have been unannounced. Hopefully it’ll be $40 if I ever want to dream about affording it…
50-60 bucks.

I love this box art for the same reason I love nsmbu’s box art. It is so vibrant and colorful.
