NWPlayer123, a person known within the gaming scene for data mining various games such as Splatoon, posted a brief chat she had with another person who has been snooping around the Wii U eShop. Supposedly, Nintendo recently added in a new title ID for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. It’s not quite clear if this would be referring to a simple re-release of the Wii game or an HD version (though the latter is mentioned in the conversation).
It’s not possible to download anything from the eShop. Only the home icon was recovered – it’s actually the image above, but smaller.
It’s true that this could have been a test or an error on Nintendo’s part. I’d personally assume that if it was intentional, there are only plans to bring the original Wii game over much like Super Mario Galaxy 2 and other titles.

Later this week, XSEED Games will be hosting an event, and a number of announcements will be made. It will apparently be taking place on Wednesday. We’re not sure how much Nintendo news there will be, though hopefully we’ll hear about a Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale release date at the very least.
Nintendo put up the first episode of Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer TV on its YouTube page today. You can watch it below.
Fans have been waiting a long time for SteamWorld Heist, but by all accounts, the game should still be releasing this year. Nothing is set yet, but Image & Form hopes to have the game done in a couple of months. CEO Brjann Sigurgeirsson told Gamer Professionals, “Our goal is to aim for a release in early December… but I won’t make promises.”
That window should mainly apply to the 3DS eShop. A Wii U version is planned as well, but the game will only be out on Nintendo’s handheld at launch.
Zelda fans in France have an opportunity to obtain a poster by pre-ordering Tri Force Heroes at select retailers. Each poster will be numbered. As of now, no pre-order bonuses have been announced for North America.
