Twilight Princess HD, a re-release of the 2006 GameCube and Wii game with improved graphics and more features, is out today, March 4, for Wii U. GameSpot scored it a 9/10.
"Twilight Princess HD is unmistakably a product of its time; one that was cursed from birth with a warped identity," reviewer Rob Crossley said. "Crafted during anxious times for Nintendo, developed for two consoles simultaneously, this was the GameCube's last hurrah, a Wii launch title, and a defining test for motion controls (which have been stripped out). Perhaps now, ten years later, it can finally be remembered how it ought to be; the dark and violent showpiece of a treasured series."
