Indeed… (Now I’ll never get to play “Minish Cap.”) I assume they’re bringing GBA games to WiiU instead, due to not being able to bring GameCube games to WiiU’s Virtual Console, (for the possible reasons I stated below) or perhaps, they’re afraid if they release GBA games for 3DS’s Eshop, then people will only buy those, and ignore the Gameboy & Gameboy Color games.  
Though, that doesn’t seem to be a problem on Wii, seeing as how NES VC games still sell well, even with more powerful systems on Wii/WiiU’s Virtual Console. (Especially, sense they’re cheaper.)  
In fact, some of the best selling VC games are 8-bit NES titles like Super Mario 3.
 
Of course, even if they do release GBA games for both systems, it’s likely you’ll have to buy them separately like the NES Virtual Console games… (It would’ve been nice if they at least gave us a discount, like if you bought one on the Wii/WiiU, and want to get it for 3DS also.)
 
I suppose the WiiU’s “Game Pad” looks a li’l more like a GBA, but wouldn’t it make more sense to rerelease old portable GBA games on a portable system?

@Beau Skunky
 
Yeah, that IS weird, especially given those 3DS Ambassador games from 2 years back that they apparently had no intention of ever releasing to the general public…

@Jarkes  
Don’t turn your back on them…
 
It has some nice new features, and the graphics are a bit improved, but sense I already have the GameCube version, I’m a li’l reluctant to get it, as well.
 
Also, something about them remaking a GameCube game doesn’t get my hopes up that they’ll have GCN games for WiiU Virtual Console anytime soon… (I guess some might be hard to emulate from the GCN disc tech, or without the pressure-sensative L & R buttons the GCN controller had.)  
Oddly, they’re bringing GBA games to WiiU’s VC, instead of 3DS.

@Beau Skunky
 
And let’s not forget their version of the Redeads…
 
…To be honest, though, when I get a Wii U, I’m probably not going to get Wind Waker HD. I mean, I plan on keeping my original Wii so that I can still play my Gamecube games, and I still have the original version of Wind Waker. Are the prettier graphics and the tweaks to the sailing and the Triforce shard quest (which I don’t really know the specific details of, I just know that it’s supposedly much less tedious, and not just because of the tweaks to the sailing mechanics) really a big enough reason for me to buy it again?

@Jarkes  
Yeah, even if there wasn’t any blood, it was arguably more shocking then the “final blow” from “Ocarina of Time,” and “Twilight Princess.”

@Beau Skunky
 
And the fact that Link STABS GANONDORF IN THE FREAKING HEAD.

Y’know, “Windwaker” wasn’t really that “cute & happy” either, if you consider the darker aspects/moments of the game. (Especially, it’s plot-twist.)

At the very least, I commend Fluttershy for giving Majora’s Mask a chance. Plus, the ‘good classic’ bit does fit.
 
Given her nature, I don’t really expect her to SUCCEED, but it’s the thought that counts, right?

I don’t get why people say that every Zelda is the same.  
Oh yeah, different dungeons, different items, different graphical styles, different characters, different locations… BUT THE GENERAL PLOT IS ALWAYS THE SAME, SO IT SUCKS!

Well to be fair, the general plot of nearly every Legend of Zelda game is the same; “Go to the monster infested temple, beat the big dude at the end to collect a magical doohickey, rinse and repeat X number of times until you collect them all, then use their power to square off against the Big Bad to save the world.”
 
On the other hand, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, right? The games may be formulaic, but they each have a unique feel to them.

Goddamnit, Fenwolf.

lol I saw that comment, and yeah, not every Zelda game is the same. Games in a series have similarities, but also have many differences, as well. “Majora’s Mask” is definately one of the most unorthodox (and darkest) Zelda games, but it’s a really good one.
 
Also, I liked Windwaker. (I didn’t mind the sailing segments either personally.)  
I honestly, haven’t played a Zelda game I haven’t liked. (I even liked Zelda 2.)

I liked windwaker. It was a break from the normal look of the zelda franchise, but it was true to the soul of the series and was groundbreaking in a number of its features. A lot of people talk crap about it, but most never gave it a chance in the first place.

I can only assume this was made by a bitter long-time “Zelda” fan who hates “Wind Waker” based on its cover and publicity alone.

“Happy and cute like the Windwaker”
 
Hurray all those people died.

@Background Pony
 
Oh, yeah, typical fenwolf.(I think)

@sixtyfour215
 
He says that all Zelda games are exactly the same.
 
It’s as if there is no difference between Majora’s mask, Wind Waker and Skyward Sword at all!

I don’t get the context of fenwolf’s statement.

MM was and still is my favorite zelda game. it’s a shame it was released near the end of the 64’s span. alot more folks might have played it had it come out on the gamecube

>wind waker….HAPPY  
err…  
*take a list*  

I would like to see Oracle of Ages/Seasons rereleased on the virtual console. A lump deal so that your file transfers to the next one to continue the story.

Windwaker may look happy and cute, but Link plunges his sword into Ganon’s forehead in the end.
 
Coincidentally, these are my two favorite Zelda games.
