It’s one of the best Zelda games of all time, and a must-play for Wii U owners. This time, though, Link lives his anthropomorphic best life by regularly transforming into a wolf on the regular. Like many Zelda titles, this one sees Link trying to rescue his sister from the villainous Ganondorf while in the company of the pirate captain, Tetra.Īs for Twilight Princess, you’ll be venturing into an alternate timeline in an attempt to save Hyrule. The Wind Waker mixed the Zelda formula up by inviting us to explore a group of islands. So, if you’re an owner of one, consider me incredibly envious of you and your ability to play these games!

The Wii U was home to some stellar titles over the course of its lifespan some of which fans - including me - are still desperate to see come to the Switch. However, that's no reason to consign this strange little box and gigantic tablet completely to the history books. It was perceived as lacking power compared to the PS4 and Xbox One, and considering its lineup of games at launch weren’t exactly the best, the writing was on the wall pretty quickly. The Wii U didn’t quite fly off the shelves upon release.
