Reliable Nintendo informer Laura Dale from Let’s Play Video Games has revealed when Nintendo is expecting to ship the long-awaited The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. She says that June 16th is the UK date for the Nintendo Switch version of the open world adventure and June 23rd is the Wii U date. Obviously this is subject to change.
Nintendo are internally aiming for a June 16 2017 UK Breath of the Wild Switch release. Aiming Wii U for June 23 2017 UK.

Thanks to Shaan A for the tip!
Kick wii u owners in the balls a bit more why dont ye.
nobody cares about the wii u lol you shouldnt have bought it in the first place, I own every console they ever released besides this piece of shit.
You won the moron of the year award!
Or sell it already if you’re low on money.
I’m sure you could still get $100 for it.
Maybe even $150, which would put you half way for the Switch!
Continuing my pet peve where someone uses lol when complaining, your b***hing is literally turned into a moot point when you use that…
Ill respect other peoples opinion though but after the huge dissapoinment with the wii I decided to skip it and so far I havent felt sorry one bit.
Missed out on some good games!
Smash 4 the Wii U
Splatoon
Mario Maker
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Mario Kart 8
….Just to name a few. :P
Yeah, except all of those are supposed to be getting enhanced ports on the Switch. Don’t get me wrong i love my Wii U, and I’m glad to have bought it so i could play those games sooner, but if you haven’t bought the Wii U yet, there’s no reason to as most of its really good games are getting enhanced Switch ports.
A couple of games I can think of that probably won’t get Switch ports:
-The Wonderful 101
-Bayonetta 1 & 2
– Pokkén Tournament
-Super Mario 3D World
-Zelda Twilight Princess HD
-Zelda Wind Waker HD
-Pikmin 3
Just to name a few. And there’s the whole Wii backwards compatibility thing. If you care about that I guess.
Pretty sure he was being sarcastic since he listed the games rumored to be getting ports.
I love how you list the games rumored to be getting Switch ports! xD
Vamo 💪🏻
||It will arrive precisely when it means to…||
Ugh. I know that line but I can’t recall from where I first heard it! It’s at the edge of my freaking mind but it can’t get past that mind block.
||Disappointing, the Sonyans hold you in such high esteem, show me you can do better…||
Ah hah! Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring! Gandalf’s line about wizards are never late or early and that they arrive precisely when they mean to.
I’ve always had this issue where I know something but my brain just suddenly puts up a damn wall & refuses to let what I know come out. At times, it scares me. Could it be one of those early signs of Alzheimer’s!?! O.O D:

Something like this. But instead of keeping evil little alien children from realizing I’m hiding a bomb, it’s my own mind keeping me from recalling something I know!
One of the best climactic endings in a movie ever for me, by the way! And no action was needed, either!
I actually respect her opinion and the information she gives us, but a main line Zelda game has never released in summer. One has never released outside of the holiday season to be honest (correct me if I’m wrong) and I really don’t see that trend changing with BotW. I hope I’m wrong, I really don’t want to wait another year.
It’s possible it could change if we go by the amount of changes to the Zelda formula in the game itself. I mean, who honestly thought we’d one day be able to make Link jump ON COMMAND with the press of a button in an actual Zelda game without the use of the Roc’s Feather or Roc’s Cape items!?
Your right about that, I didn’t think we’d ever be able to jump on command in a Zelda game. So I guess there’s always hope!
Same thing happened with Twilight Princess so I’m not surprised.
If Nintendo makes people wait another year. That’s a bad move. I for one will be over the hype as I’m already dwindling down. Some people get tired of waiting and the hype and excitement is deflated.
Not saying nobody will care anymore like the last guardian but I won’t be jumping for joy when it finally does release. I lll just think, wow…sad it took that long.
I’m still jaded it didn’t release on Wii U back 2015!
Laura “Chris Chan” Dale
booooo!!
Laura is very credible so I’m definitely believing this news. A June release date means that BOTW will be a launch window Switch release and that’s ok. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it I wanted BOTW to be a launch day title more than anything but if Nintendo can give us a better experience by delaying it then I’m all for it
Do you believe in Chris Chan?
This is not a surprise, she is just confirming old news, last year Takahashi confirmed that they were working in a new project, it was freaking obvious that it is for Nintendo Switch.
I know she has lots of defenders but she should shup the fuck up and don’t spoil the surprises.

I mean the monolith project

The real reason for this delay is that we’ll get Mario and Skyrim Remastered on day one, these two games could hurt BoTW’s sales as BoTW could hurt the sales of both. Its smart to spread first party titles to keep the momentum.
Skyrim isn’t first party.
everyone who wants skyrim will already have it on a better console
Well, it will be hard to wait even more if that’s true. But more time to save for a switch then:)
So many people being super positive about BotW possiblyou being pushed further back AGAIN. I am really annoyed that Nintendo is doing this. I really hope Switch is worth all the hype but so far all I been reading is a ton of old ports heading over to it. Xenoblade X is being ported and I have no idea why. I wish instead of ports, Nintendo would work on new titles for this system. Happy to hear a new Mario title will likely release for it though. I hate that I am being so pessimistic about the new system but honestly I’ve always been super supportive and optimistic with Nintendo but I’ve been feeling a bit let down with the lackluster performance and support Nintendo’s home consoles have been getting so it’s hard not to be critical with them now. If the Switch has a lot of cool games at launch I will get it within the first 6 months of release.
||Of course they are working on new weapons, you don’t seriously think High Command spent 5 human years in creating our new machine just to put old weaponry on it?…||
Welcome to my world. In another 2-5 years you’ll be as jaded as I am. :]
I’m sure this is true and I am sure Nintendo will defend it by saying “its in the launch window”
Anyone wanna ask her for tonight’s winning lotto numbers too?
Laura Dale over Emily “Rumors” Rogers any day ! Seriously though it makes Skyrim more relevant as a launch title and it’ll be win win as 3rd parties can see that Switch owners will buy 3rd party games and Zelda can be fine tuned to perfection cuz honestly even the “bad” Zelda games are more epic than most of the garbage out there so … As far as hype levels? A sparkly The Legend of Zelda : Breath of The Wild Nintendo direct will ignite your hype levels again before the game is released ;)
