I must have missed the announcement thread, so I will post my thoughts here.

Who is this for? Was there really such a clamoring for a remaster of Twilight Princess? The game is only 9 years old, and was on just the previous console. It was still playable on the current console due to backwards compatibility too.

I understand the Ocarina and Majora's remakes. Those games were pretty old by that point, and several generations back as well. They were only playable via virtual console, so it made sense. The Wind Waker was 11 years old and not playable in any current format.

Is this really where Nintendo is making the best use of its resources? I can only hope it was cheap and didn't take much time.

Before I was certain that NIntendo will not done TP HD port on Wii U because backwards compatibility. But now when they announced it, I understand why they done that. First in 2016. game will be 10 years old, than today TP Wii looks terrible, fans were very loud in asking of TP HD, next year will 30th Zelda anniversary and Nintendo wanted to have mark anniversary with two games,HD port of very popular Zelda game in first half of year and completely new Zelda game at end of the year.
