Apologies if this has been mentioned before, but is the Wii U version of BOTW likely to be downloadable via the e-shop on March 3?

Yes it will be.

I'll still wait and see but I think those features will still make it to the Wii U version to some degree.

It makes absolutely no sense to shaft existing Wii U owners. If they do, it just puts yet another nail in the lid on my desire to stick with them and get a Switch down the line.

Surely people remember this interview with Aonuma?


The new Zelda won’t use the GamePad screen because it’s distracting

I was thinking at the time of Star Fox Zero.

Shame if map aint at least on Wii U ersion.

Planning to get but versions for collector purposes, Been pretty sweet having the Wii U for the Collection of all Zelda Games.
Wind Waker HD TP HD and TBOW along with Skyward Sword Wii Disk Supported and all rest of Virtual Console and/or 3DS remasters of N64/SNES titles.

Wii U will go down as one of my favourites, be nice to see full list titles on Switch in a few years too to Top Wii U ease of accessibility.

Now finding Wii U Version TBOW is annoying it was on amazon UK for 40stg but been outofstock for weeks, might just get Nintendo UK with free tt but its 60stg yikes.

It rings a bell, a bell deeply buried one. Buried like the Wii U is being like Nintendo. What ridiculous comments.

RUMOR - LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD'S WII U VERSION MAY HAVE BEEN LEAKED ONLINE

I absolutely hate sharing this kind of news, but it's news nonetheless. Early rumblings have surfaced on a potential leak for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Wii U. Somehow, it seems the game may have been let loose on the darker corners of the internet. This is backed up by evidence of sound files and select images leaking.

We do not condone this leak, nor will we share any footage/screens/audio from the leaked version. Hopefully Nintendo can get out there and squash this right away.

Was able to place a deposit on Wii U version in Smyths yesterday no problem.

I haven't cancelled my amazon order of the Wii U version anyway. Decided to go ahead even if I get the Switch

I wonder could I buy Zelda in Smyths(Argos or wherever) on Friday, play it, then when my Amazon order arrives the following week, bring that sealed copy into Smyths and get a refund? I don't want to wait to play this game. Has anyone ever done something like this before?

I'm in the same boat, best thing to do is ask about return policies.

They can keep it

Wow I have never seen a €65 note,I am sure Smyths haven't neither, and if you did bring one in they'd be quick enough to tell you that you can keep it. 😊

Not sure if anyone ordered the Master Edition off of Amazon.com, but they have canceled a large swathe of pre orders due to lack of supply, only a rumor at the moment but a consignment was stolen.

Wii U version back up on amazon
here.

£47.99. Was £41 before

Does anyone know if there's any way of tracking Amazons price for items over the last few months. I've Zelda pre-ordered but the price seems to be going up (on my order page, it used to stay static)? I thought amazing guaranteed you the lowest price for pre-order?

Also the £10 BIGTHANKS discount had magically disappeared so I'll have to get onto them about that too!

Ryath

£45 on gameseek Can't see what they charge for delivery though?

Pricespy have a link to this crowd gamereload for £46 delivered never heard of them though and googling shows up little reckon it's a scam site?

The Wii U version is £41 if you pre ordered it when it was available a few months ago. The price guarantee means it can't increase in price but can decrease.

Finally its back to order, got it 54e with my discount, thanks a mil mate.

Cant understand out digital is 12stg dearer, why would anyone go digital i cant understand, esp as theres no moving it between devices, nor selling it on, no displaying or collecting or heck even extra cost of SD cards..
