Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD coming to Wii U?

Nintendo hasn’t made any official announcements about the game, but did previously admit to testing it in HD when they built the Wii U.

While it may seem hard to believe that Nintendo would let knowledge of a Twilight Princess remake leak this way, Nintendo has suffered from much larger leaks in the past.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is easily among the best Zelda games of all time for Nintendo Wii and GameCube. We’ve already seen an HD remake of the first GameCube entry with Wind Waker and now it sounds like that could be happening with Twilight Princess as well. That hit Wii U back in 2013, and serves as the last console Zelda game before the Twilight Princess. This could have been a test or an error on Nintendo’s part.

In a video statement released recently, Aonuma said that they are no longer making a 2015 release of “The Legend of Zelda” on Wii U their top priority. The orchestra performed a medley of familiar songs from the Zelda series, accompanied by game highlights.

Nintendo has often gotten a not undeserved reputation as a stubborn company.

We’ve always been champions of brilliant video game music at this site, and it’s incredible to think we live in a time when a few of our favourite gaming soundtracks from years gone by can now fill large concert venues – and be played triumphantly on major TV shows.
