Forums - Nintendo - Should I buy the Wii U for Wind Waker alone?

Fusioncode on 22 September 2013

300$ for a Gamecube port? I think that's kind of a waste of money.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

There is more than one game out.

If you've never played WW then it really doesn't matter if it was on the gamecube or not.

It's really good, but enough to buy a Wii U I'm not sure.

No just buy a gamecube


And miss out on it's HD glory.  He should do it right or not at all, not that it's bad on the Gamecube.

the game seems way much better than game cube's version. Not only the visuals, the mainly complains are resolved:
the traveling is now much faster, the 8 treasures are only 3 now(get the 8 were kinda boring), the hero mode, for those who think WW was a easy game.
I havent played yet, Im waiting for phisical version.

I loved the original WW, is the zelda game a finished most times (even more than ocarina).
And i would buy a wii U only for this game.

I say get it.

WindWaker on the Cube costs the same as the HD version either way.

No, you should save the money and just pick up Wind Waker for the GC/Wii.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Read his title again. He said for Wind Waker ALONE. If that's all he wants than he's much better off getting the Gamecube version and saving a lot of money.

Each time I see that advertisement on the front page for Wind Waker on the Wii U I feel so envious of Wii U owners.

 

But I do not really care to own much else. Maybe Pikmin 3 and Zombie U.

 

Is this one game worth it?


Is it the ONLY game you will ever play on it? I would doubt it, therefore let Wind Waker be the reason to put you over the edge, and other games caming to keep it going.


I would probably get the other games in the OP, but I am not too hyped for Pikmin 3. But I was the same way about Animal Crossing and have put about 100 hours into it so far. I am sure I would like it more if I had it. Do not really remember much from when I rented the original on the GC back in the day.

 

There are some others I would want as well. Probably wii Sports 3.

I've just started playing Pikmin 3 this weekend and it's really tons of fun. It's a very unique kind of game, strategic, beautiful and charming, open ended.



Signature goes here!
