Twilight Princess HD is perhaps a bit gun-shy in comparison, with the major visual changes largely limited to texture resolution boosts and a UI rework, but there are also tweaks to background scenery, shadows and lighting.
Watch on YouTube While words can paint a picture, the video review gives a better impression of these Wii U games in action. There are some issues, too - there can be noticeable aliasing in ambient occlusion and shadow maps, and the cartoon stylings of the original models are lost somewhat in indirect lighting, but it's still a beautiful-looking game. Even with the original geometric meshes in place, the game holds up brilliantly at 1080p. Wind Waker HD is definitely the more successful of these efforts, with new textures, a redesigned UI, gameplay tweaks and reworked lighting featuring bloom, real-time shadow maps and ambient occlusion. These are both essentially respun GameCube titles, modernisations that add new textures and effects but largely leave the original visual designs intact. The obvious place to start here are the two Zelda remasters for Wii U - Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD. As well as some big first-party releases, there are some great games from smaller studios that at least deserve to be remembered for what they did with the Wii U hardware. So before it's too late, we're highlighting some of the most technically accomplished Wii U titles that are worth picking up before the shutdown - including some that are significantly cheaper digitally. That's a real shame, because the Wii U is home to top-shelf software, including first-party, boundary-pushing titles that never got ported to Switch or rely heavily on the Wii U's novel controller. On March 27th, Nintendo is set to close down the eShop for Wii U systems, removing the ability to buy games and download demos although your existing purchases will still be accessible. The Wii U's online services are on their last legs.
