I have to wonder why they chose one of their least popular Zelda titles on a console as the one to 'remake in HD'. Seems kinda silly, considering how much flak this game got in the first place. Now if they had un cartoonified the game, I would be all for their HD reiteration.

This is really one of my most favorite Zelda games ever. I just don't know if them adding HD to the game is enough for me to purchase it again. :\

Wish that this was coming out for 3DS ! I missed out on the original version and don't really feel like buying a Wii U.

I hope they do a Master Quest version of it after completing it. Enemies, items, everything rearranged would kick ass. More complex dungeon floors would be even better, as the game is pretty short altogether. Also, there should be an extra dungeon just for getting that 3rd item before the tower.

They are doing a HERO version. No hearts can be found in the game, only fairies and potions can heal you, enemies have double life. I'm sure there is more

I'm picking up the Zelda Wii U bundle once it gets announced.
