Not to toot my horn too much but can I say I called it?
It never made sense to me to release a bunch of games whose audience and appeal perfectly overlapped with one another, including with a game they already announced, or to overshadow their prior Zelda announcement with a collection of said similar games. And I figured something very alike to the Game & Watch would happen, though I wasn't confident enough to say they'd literally do another G&W.

They aren't going to port these games in the same year that Skyward Sword HD comes out.
Also highly skeptical that they were ever going to be sold in a bundle. Both Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD will be full-priced and sold separately.

In the minority here but I'd gladly take the Game & Watch over more ports. That thing is gorgeous.
Surprised zelda ports weren't shown and instead made a game and watch ha, no interest in that but I at least see it as a nice thing from a collectors point of view.
I find it hard to believe wind waker HD at the least will stay locked to wii u forever, so guess we'll see. Really that's the main one I want to see. I won't say no to the rest, but TP has been on everything since GC, so not really in such of a need. OOT/MM, I'd more want MM, OOT I played first on 3DS, along with MM, and found MM the more interesting of the two so that's how I see it.

I think that fact that he made this statement at all shows that there are other ports either in the works or finished. I just don't think that they will release for the anniversary. With everything still being so screwed up from covid, you might as well save things for if you need them. Plus, this year is stacked with games. Trying to find a decent time to release them would be difficult.
I mean to each his own but you can just play those games on Switch so I don't get the appeal other than for the sake of collecting. It's so tiny too. My hands hurt just looking at the thing.
Nintendo should take a note from terrible spouses and just forget about anniversary's wholesale if they're not going to bother doing anything to celebrate them.
I guess Nintendo thought that it'd be better to sell the older games as standalone entries instead of an "All-Star" package. You know people will buy them again.
Tbh, I read this as no other games coming out specifically in 2021. Ports and the like can still happen in '22.
I just wish the actual Zelda Game & Watch game was in it.
Same. I was thinking "but there is already two Zelda G&W games", and the one based on Zelda 2 was actually pretty good.
Are there any announced QOL changes for that game aside from amiibo and the motion controls being button controls?
"If you are such a huge fan, where were you when WiiU needed U?"
It's interesting, because I rolled my eyes prettttty hard when they announced the Mario Collection.
Then I bought the Mario collection and have enjoyed it immensely.
And now I'm upset they're not doing the same garbage timed window of release for Zelda.
Sounds like Nintendo is definitely winning...

Almost feel like buying a Wii U to play Wind Waker HD. I know a lot of people hate the constant Wii U ports, but they've been great for me never owning the Wii U.
35 isn't even an important anniversary, Nintendo just did Mario last year because they had nothing else.
Wii U is Zelda paradise. You can get WWHD, TPHD, Nintendo Land and Minish Cap.
Guess they didn't want Zelda burnout or something also cause they didn't want Skyword Sword to look like a shitty value compared to the WiiU double pack lol
What a shame that they're ignorig WWHD and TPHD when they could have rereleased OoT and MM while still ignoring WWHD and TPHD.
Do it, you'll love it. I still play mine very often.
I'm actually shocked that WWHD & TPHD weren't announced. Same with an HD port of OoT and MM 3D. That is such easy money for them and you just know they'd charge full price for them too. I'm baffled.
Disappointing honestly. I thought we'd at least get another port or something. Damn we can't even get Minish Cap through Nintendo Online 😭
AND you can still play Skyward Sword on it! Along with Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask through VC.

Unlikely TP remake was handled by Tantalus, WW remaster was handled by Nintendo as a test for HD graphics. Wouldn't take a lot to port either and give it to an outside studio, like Tantalus to do.
They didn't do it because it would conflict with Skyward Sword HD. That's their Zelda celebration game this year.
In anycase, as I said upthread, didn't make much sense to bring WW HD and TP HD back this year since they were just released on Wii U, especially not both in a $60 package. At least with Mario 3D All Stars, there's the big draw of Sunshine , Galaxy and SM64 in HD.
Seems obvious that they are waiting to see how Skyward Sword sells at 60€. Why release a collection for 60€ when you can sell every game for 60€?
Was Grubb the only one hinting at this?
Well, I'd like to believe that, but Idk man, I just feel like it isn't gonna happen right now. I really hope I'm wrong tho. :(
Same man, same. :(
