Nintendo released The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD earlier in March this year. The game had a completely new area and amiibo support as well as its new graphical touches. The title, in addition, included Hero Mode, which allowed fans to play the game in a mirrored version with double the damage from enemies and less plentiful hearts.

Their next project in the Zelda series, Breath of the Wild, releases in March 2017 for Wii U and NX with open world gameplay, voice acting, and further emphasis on equipment.
