No need to blink twice. There is a prevailing rumor out there from a generally reliable website that Nintendo is currently planning to release a ReUmagined line of games featuring 7 all time classic titles that are going to get The Wind Waker HD treatment for Wii U. The entire premise behind it is to create tide-me-over content that will fill the gaps between major game releases out of Nintendo. AKA, it's their way of providing filler content since third parties can't be relied upon at this point. Among those games is Super Mario 64, which will feature a full graphical update along with several new features.

The short development time allows these "big classic" titles to fill the gap in between Nintendo’s original Wii U software.
Less to fund and fewer people involved means more resources to original titles in development.
eShop only for $30 per title, reduces risk at retail.
Wind Waker approach taken in terms of visual upgrades, but "reUmagined" titles will benefit from added content.
The classic Super Mario 64 in its entirety is being repainted and brought into HD.
Two players can control Mario and Luigi, simultaneously.
Option A gives player one GamePad control, and player two any other controller option. The camera will follow the brothers as they move throughout the stage, but should they split apart too far, the GamePad user's Lakitu (camera operator) will only follow that user on the controller's screen, while the second player's Lakitu will follow that character on the TV.
Option B allows two GamePads to be used at once. If the brothers are nearby, the camera will remain the same on both GamePads and TV. If the brothers separate, each player will have his or her own unique camera view on their GamePad, until coming back together. While apart, however, the TV screen can be switched to be mimicking either player one or player two or be a top down perspective map.
Online cooperative/counter-cooperative gameplay is present.
Race to Star, Coin Collector, and other similar modes have been added in to enhance re-playability.
The only thing that makes me question it is the online co-op since Nintendo has yet to do it, but it all starts somewhere right? The rumors come from a source at the Paul Gale Network who nailed information about a new 3D Mario game arriving in 2013 five months before Nintendo announced it.

Sounds like a very sketchy rumour. I believe it when I see it.

Sound awesome. But there are already enough annoying people who claim Nintendo only does nothing but remakes just because of Wind Waker HD alone. So I'm not sure how I'd feel if even more remakes were made.

oh yeah its absolutely sketchy, i was just after opinions. i personally love the idea of a hd Mario 64. i think new character models and some slight tweaks to the controls would go a huge way to making it truly timeless.

put it on.

What if, Majora's Mask HD? But than again, I want that game to be remade for the 3DS.

That would be amazing if it was true! Also, one of the starred out games has the same amount of letters as Majora's Mask. :0

I would hate this. Make new games.

I'm not one to complain too much about remakes, especially if new games are being made at the same time anyway. To be honest I'd probably end up buying a few of these if they ended up coming true.

And my opinion is that it sounds too out there to be true. Mario 64 would obviously need much more work than Wind Waker to meet HD standards anyhow.

Sketchy rumour, indeed. Just trying to play the guessing game from the list of asterisks on the reveal.

Super Mario 64

    3rd is Wave Race 64, 4th Star Fox 64, 5th I don't really know (anyone knows a game with ten letters and 64 at the end?), 6th is Majora's Mask and the last is 1080 Snowboarding.

I dont believe it simply because of the word "ReUmagined" It makes no sense whatsoever.

Hopefully not Star Fox 64, since they've already redone it for the 3ds this generation. That makes our list even harder to fill, and the rumor even sketchier.

Just to play the guessing game....

Excitebike 64 for the 5th?

You're onto to something! Now the 2nd title? I first though it was Mario Kart 64 but it's "5 letters_5 letters_64" so can't be. Mario Party fits, but it doesn't have 64 at the end, and besides remaking Mario Party is non-sense. And ReUmagined? Terrible name, the list is complete bogus.
