Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess may be getting a high-definition release on the Wii U, according to some user discoveries. As reported by Eurogamer, a fan had discovered a shop icon for Twilight Princess in the backend of the Wii U eShop. According to Eurogamer, an entry for "THE LEGEND OF ZELDA Twilight Princess HD" has also allegedly been found in the Nintendo eShop servers, although the source listing is unofficial and claims it may be inaccurate.

At this stage it's only rumors, so I'm inclined to take this with a grain of salt, but still a little bit excited. The original aesthetics were sublime, so I'd be interested to see how much they've been improved if this is true.

Edit: I know I'm half a century late on this, but it's confirmed to be TP that's getting the HD remake.

It's not that it's bad--it's just the most... average, run-of-the-mill, Zelda-ass Zelda game there ever was.

"only rumors"

This is not true, the icon associated with "THE LEGEND OF ZELDA Twilight Princess HD" does not have the Wii label attatched to it, like the Wii games on the eShop. It's also on the Japanese eShop servers. These updates are only pushed to the servers if the games are close to releasing.

Also, other games listed on the servers were announced shortly after their discovery.

There is nothing to suggest that it is fake.

"But they're releasing Zelda Wii U, they can't do 2 Zelda games at once!"

Not necessarily

Wind Waker HD was developed in 6 months.

Do you remember the Zelda Wii U tech demo? That was Twilight Princess. They already have a base for a TP HD.

Now I know what you're thinking "Triforce Heroes is releasing soon, they can't release 2 games side-by-side!"

Oh yes they can.

TLOZ: WW HD Release Date - September 20, 2013
TLOZ: ALBW Release Date - November 22, 2013

There is nothing against the notion that TP HD can release this year or even by March 2016.

As I said, the eShop server only adds games when they are close to release.

Just wait for the direct next week.

Nobody liked being stuck as Wolf Link and collecting those Twilight Bug things.

I haven't played it, so this HD remake would be a welcome release. I heard it was better than Wind Waker though.

Comet · October 18, 2015, 10:52:02 AM

the game was too dark visually at times, i wonder if they'd fix that.
also if they could make it darker in tone, that'd be cool too.

New slide from their financial briefing showing that new Link model in its entirety and guess what?

IT'S THE EXACT SAME AS THE TP ART.

Spoiler

Even the fingers on his right hand are in the same exact pose.

Same clothes, same everything.

Also this was said at the investors briefing:

Need? No, as most games don't need a remaster. But of all the Zelda games, it is perhaps the one I'd say aged the poorest.

Those are some of the only Zelda games I haven't played, in addition to Skyward Sword and the DS titles (except Phantom Hourglass).
I would like to someday, I think.

I played oracle of seasons but problem was I didn't know where to go often so I never really cared for them.

omg, this basically confirms it

I mean, I could totally see an HD version happening, perhaps as a sort of consolation for the Zelda Wii U delay, to keep fans reasonably patient.
