Best Wii U Games of All Time: Some of These Games Found New Life on Nintendo Switch
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD
On the GameCube, The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker has established itself as a completely different take on the norm and an all-time classic that has been remembered by everyone as time continues to move forward. However, the best version of Wind Waker can be found on the Wii U. Nintendo has faithfully updated Link’s maritime adventures with thoughtful tweaks and player-friendly improvements. The high-definition upscaling is an obvious improvement, one that shows just how strong the art direction of the 2003 game was, but under the hood is where you discover the real magic.
Improved warehouse space, reduced number of Triforce charts to collect, a more spacious timed event window, and the inclusion of Swift Sail to speed travel between islands has eliminated much of the tedium. pale compared to the original. With more powerful hardware that can load new locations faster, the core sailing aspect of Wind Waker has been vastly improved and makes exploring uncharted waters so much fun. With the Gamepad, Nintendo has made Wind Waker’s cramped inventory much more organic to sift through, but over the ocean the controller really comes into its own by giving you a map for convenient navigation and travel.
It’s what you call the perfect combination of hardware and software.
