Wii U

Nintendo started selling Wii U consoles at a loss when the system launched late last year. Unfortunately for the company, nothing has changed. A Nintendo representative has confirmed that Wii U is still being sold at a loss. That’s one of a few reasons as to why Nintendo is likely tentative to bring about a price drop.

One more tidbit from today’s Nintendo Direct to go over. In Japan, Wii Fit U is slated for October 31. The title will be out in December overseas.

Zelda: Wind Waker HD will offer a number of improvements to the original GameCube title. As revealed by Eiji Aonuma through a Miiverse message, the ship will now always be full of wind, which allows players to move in any direction without using the Wind Waker to change the wind’s direction. This is in addition to the Swift Sail for faster travel.

Wind Waker HD will also include a “nautical chart” – displayed on the GamePad – during sailing segments. Aonuma noted how it “works like a car nav”, making it “much easier to travel to the small islands and salvage points scattered around the great sea.”

You can find Aonuma’s full message below:

Hello, members of the Zelda Community! This is Eiji Aonuma of Nintendo. It’s great to be posting here again.

In the Nintendo Direct video that aired today, we announced new information on the soon to be released The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD. I would like to take this opportunity to talk about things that we weren’t able to include in the announcement.
