The remake of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess which originally came out on the GameCube and Wii back in 2006 is set to be released on the Wii U next month in super sharp HD. To celebrate this fact, Nintendo has taken a retrospective look back at the best-selling title with interviews with developers such as Eiji Aonuma providing us with plenty of development insight. Be sure to give the video a watch, below.
Video: Nintendo Takes A Look Back At Original Zelda Twilight Princess
-||Still not worth full price and if Morpheel is as useless than ever then even more so||-
I never played it before. I guess if I still had a Wii U I’d get this. Twilight Princess always looked interesting to me. Never got around to it though…
-||Whether you’ve played it before or not, still not worth full price, it’s still an old game with minimal changes||-
-|And certainly not the way it’s priced in my territory||-
Are you sure full price isn’t just the one that comes with the amiibo? Maybe it will be cheaper buying it seperately or on the eshop.
-||Here, the price for the game only is 62 dollars and with the Amiibo it’s 86 dollars going by your currency||-
Its 60$ with the Amiibo and 50$ without here.
Yeah, that makes sense. $50 seems more reasonable. And including the amiibo saves you a bit rather than buying it seperately. I mean, amiibo are only $13 here so that’s a $3 saving, but better than nothing I suppose.
I think 50$ is a pretty good price. They added some nice features to the game, and they did ALOT of texture rehaul. Way more than WWHD and people payed 50$ for that.
I thought Wind Waker HD was an actual remake though? Twilight Princess HD is a remaster.
Its not a complete remake to my knowledge no. Even if it was the graphics difference is much bigger in TPHD than in WWHD. And im not biased because i actually love WW and its my favorite Zelda game thus far.
Wow living in space is a rip-off
-||Well the extra dimensional warp transport and so on add to the price I suppose||-
Well hopefully your pizza delivery guy doesn’t go through the transport with a fly in the machine
-||What is Pi-Zza?||-
*GASP*

“Apparently you know about space and dimensions huh robot?” =_=
-I know far more things than that||-

“As long as you stay out of my domain. I run the galaxies, that’s my turf” ╰_╯
-||You run a cluster of galaxies in one universe, it’s only a matter of time before the Ing stumbles upon your universe and consume it just like Aether and countless of worlds since our rebirth||-
The Ing. You pitiful servants of The Darkness. You couldn’t even defeat one solitary human woman in a Chozo powersuit, much less take over every dimension of all of reality.
-||The dreaded hunter was part Chozo and part human, making her a Goddess compared to her primitive kin||-
-||If the Luminoth didn’t create a device to protect them from being consumed by us, she would be on our side today||-
-||It doesn’t matter though, a new more powerful Emperor is being reborn as we speak, we never fully died||-
Silly space princess & robot brainwashed by darkness. You may fight over “your turfs” all you want but it won’t matter when the End of Days come. You both will bow, one way or another, to my true father, the Great Creator.
I live in space you may not know this earth child, but what happens on earth will stay on earth…
Earth child? This body may have been born on Earth but the soul was born in a world of light. *shrug* What happens on Earth will merely be the beginning. Believe… that! Or don’t. It doesn’t really matter. lol
33 dollars in my country, without the amiibo.
You should consider importing, mate.
-||What country is that?||-
It’s a secret to everybody. Shipping to your country would increase the cost significantly, though.
-||So Puerto Rico it is||-
-||Then there was no point in mentioning it now was it||-
You were off by a whole continent.
-||This world is ugly anyway, too much light and noises||-
Nintendo pricing never makes sense. I’m sure you’d agree that in a world where the Metroid Prime Trilogy can be purchased for $20, New Super Mario Bros U shouldn’t cost $60.
…Unless the Prime pricing was a trick from you to invade more people’s homes? Clever, clever….
-||Well Metroid Prime Trilogy isn’t new today so it makes sense, however with NSMBU, I’ve never thought it should have cost 60 dollars, more like 40||-
NSMBU is no spring chicken, though. Wish they’d price drop it. I love me some 2D platformers, but I won’t spend that kind of money on yet ANOTHER NSMB game.
-||With Super Mario Maker, you don’t need to buy any more NSMB games if they make them for another 15 years, specially if they decide to include the Koopalings in the future||-
The prices are dictated by the amount of demand a game gets. No more, no less. NSMB sells much better than Metroid.
I agree that Metroid doesn’t sell well, but I don’t think that’s where the pricing comes from. Pikmin 3, Smash Bros, Mario 3D Land, and Mario Kart all cost $60, but I doubt they have sold the same amount as each other. Usually, when a game sells poorly, Nintendo just stops making physical copies; they rarely drop price until many years have passed, and those price drops aren’t based on poor sales at all; it’s often their MOST popular games that get rereleased as Nintendo Selects titles with reduced prices.
Most likely, NDCQNXP is correct; the price is simply due to the fact that MPT is a Wii game and therefore gets the same price as the other Wii games on Virtual Console. I completely understand that, but it’s still mindblowing how much more content you get for $20 spent on MPT vs. $60 spent on NSMBU.
I’d say Pikmin is the sore thumb there, and it’s only that expensive because it had low print numbers. Hence, demand is actually similar to those titles when you take into account the low number of copies available.
You never played it??? D; You need to remedy this.
The Zelda games I’ve played are:
-Wind Waker HD
-Ocarina of Time
-Phantom Hourglass
That’s about it. I have never beaten one of them before but if I get around to another Wii U, Zelda U will be the first one I do beat. Then Twilight Princess. Might do Skyward Sword too. But that one has motion controls… I don’t really like that.
-||It’s probably the best game using motion controls last generation and satisfying facing the bosses||-
Play Skyward Sword, Zelda noob! D:< lol Aside from some people having issues with Wiimote Plus, it's one of the few Wii games with great motion control. At least get it & tough it out for the story then never play it again.
Oh, I forgot to add A Link Between Worlds as one that I played. That one I actually did beat. I loved it! I seriously want to play Ocarina of Time though. Never even got that far into the game before and I can’t remember when I last played that. I should’ve gotten the 3D remake. I guess I just forgot to. Lol.
I’d love to watch this but the overabundance of Twilight Princess HD vs Twilight Princess GCN/Wii comparison videos has made me tired of videos of the game.
I feel like they started hyping too early for this one and now they feel obligated to keep up the pace even though they have no new content the reveal. I’d trade the past five videos for ten seconds of Zelda U footage. Not in the field though, I’m sick of the field.
The field in Zelda U is awesome & looks great but I agree. I want to see some town/village footage or some dungeon footage! I want to admire the beauty of those locations, too, damn it!
I also want to know what the game is ABOUT a little bit. You know, Majora is about masks and the 3day limit, Windwaker is about sailing, Twilight is about wolves…. All we know about this game is that it’s pretty. WHICH IS COOL, but I want to know more.
I guess it’s going to be called “The Legend of Zelda: Epona’s Field.” lol
Well, I do love Epona.
Didn’t they say Zelda Wii U is going to have an open world? Or at least a big one? I want to see more of that in action. They only showed a glimpse of it back then. I’m interested in what exactly you’ll be able to do as you’re out there exploring.
I don’t really feel like saying it has an open world is telling us much, though. Especially since they qualified it by saying it’s not the kind of “open world” we are used to. All Zelda’s are at least a LITTLE open world, after all, at least by the end.
i remember playing Zelda for the Nintendo 64.
