Wind Waker HD Switch 2 Port Rumors Persist

Jun 03,2025 Author: Matthew

The announcement of *The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker* arriving on the Nintendo Switch 2 has sparked excitement among fans, particularly regarding the potential for its critically acclaimed HD version to follow suit. While the GameCube original is set to debut on the new platform, concerns arose over whether *Wind Waker HD*, initially released for the Wii U in 2013, would receive a similar treatment.

In response, Nintendo of America Senior Vice President of Product Development Nate Bihldorff reassured fans during an interview with Kinda Funny Games Daily. He emphasized that "all options are on the table," indicating that a Switch 2 port for *Wind Waker HD* remains possible despite the upcoming release of the GameCube version. No concrete plans have been confirmed, but the possibility is certainly still alive.

Originally released in 2002 for the GameCube, *The Wind Waker* was praised for its vibrant cel-shaded art style and engaging gameplay. A decade later, *Wind Waker HD* enhanced the experience with higher resolution graphics, improved sailing mechanics, gyroscopic weapon controls, and additional gameplay tweaks. These upgrades made the game a standout title for the Wii U.

With the Switch 2 now offering access to the GameCube library, fans are hopeful that *Wind Waker HD* will similarly bridge the gap for original Switch owners who wish to experience the game. Meanwhile, Nintendo Switch Online members can look forward to enjoying classics like *Wind Waker*, alongside other titles such as *F-ZERO GX* and *SoulCalibur II*, through the newly rebranded Nintendo Classics service. Members will also enjoy features like retro screen filters and widescreen modes, enhancing the nostalgia factor.
