The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD Spotted for Wii U

A Nintendo fan who's done a little digging in the Wii U eShop's backend has found mounting evidence that a HD re-release of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is in the works.

First release back in 2006, Twilight Princess appeared as both one of the last games on GameCube and one of the launch titles for the Wii. It was notably darker than the game that came before it, The Wind Waker, which has already received the HD treatment on Wii U.

Epic Games Founder Tim Sweeney is betting a lot on virtual reality; he expects to see between three and five million VR headsets sold next year, so it's plain to see why it's changing a lot about the way the Fortnite, Gears of War, and Unreal Tournament developer makes its games and game development tools.
