According to a tweet from Nintendo of Europe, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will be released through Virtual Console on Wii U July 2.

Originally released for N64 in 1998, the game has since graced GameCube, Wii Virtual Consoles, and on 3DS in June 2011.

Nintendo of North America has yet to announce whether it will be released on Wii U Virtual Console stateside as of press time.

Too bad my left stick on the GamePad is screwed up.

While its good I suppose for younger players who haven't played it before the standard N64 version emulated is not the best experience of the game. Better to play it on 3DS or even dare I say PC where you can play it at a high resolution with enhanced textures and even in 3D if so desired.

May buy it, owning the game for the fourth time might not be a bad idea.

Already have OoT 3D so no need to get it :/

n65,gamecube,wii,..3DS and now wii u.

Will it atleast run at a higher resolutions or anything? or just look like the old n64 game?

So erhm.... this news... kinda a bummer? I mean there are people that have bought this same game 4 times already.
Its not the zelda news people wanted.

not HD? nahhhhh

Well, it's the greatest game of all-time, so a pretty decent addition to the Virtual Console. And obviously a game that can't be missed in the VC's N64 line-up. But yeah, greatest game of all-time; get it.

I however already have the game twice on N64, as part of the Collectors's Disc on GameCube and Ocarina 3D on 3DS. I shared the Master Quest version on GameCube in the past, so I think I'll pass on this .

EDIT: Slight error, I also have it twice on 3DS lol .

Or better yet, get an N64 and play it as it was originally intended to be experiened.
