I don't think an HD Twilight Princess is going to happen. I remember reading an article about Wind Waker HD and how they took all the 3D Zeldas and compared how HD affected them and WW got the most improvement. I think they would pick something with a similar art style that would also gain a lot from HD and I think Dkyward Sword would be more likely. I do hope both come to VC
I imagine they both will be released on the eshop both ocarina of time & majora's mask made it to the Wii's VC and still got remade so by past logic a eshop release of TP is going to happen even if it eventually got remade XD. Also lets not forget remakes seem to go hand in hand with new Zelda games as of late, (2011 OOT3D to Skyward Sword - 2013: WWHD to ALBW - 2015: MM3D To Zelda U) so going by that logic we may not see another zelda remake until the next big game which may not even be on the wii u or 3ds for that matter. So, in the end its safe for Nintendo to put TP and SS on the eshop as is.
I was mainly directing this at a Wii U remake. Future consoles are always fair game.
People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

I can see that - after all the Wii version was arguably just a Gamecube port.
It was released on the Wii first, how is that a GameCube port? Because it was originally developed for the GameCube? I guess that makes Kirby's Return to Dreamland just a GameCube port as well; and Pikmin 3 just a Wii port...

Because it also released on Gamecube, not because it was originally developed for it. The Wii version doesn't even have any enhancements over the Gamecube, save for the faux widescreen display. It's a port.

Actually, the Gamecube version supported 480p if you had a component cable. So that's one less exclusive feature to mark off the list for the Wii version.
EDIT: And the post I was responding to got deleted, so this is no longer relevant.

Hopefully both NPC version of Pikmin 1 and 2 become available, I sold my copy of Pikmin 1 way back before the Wii came out and never picked it up again, even when the NPC version was released.

By that logic it is a GameCube port, as it was released on the Wii first, and ported to the GameCube later.
Fine.
The Wii version is a port because it was originally developed for the GameCube, and also released on the Gamecube, and the Wii version has no enhancements over the Gamecube version except for the tacked on motion controls, in which the game was not originally designed for, and 16:9 display. All other features, including progressive scan, were in the GameCube version as well.
EDIT: Uh...what? The post I quoted is gone now. What's going on?

After posting it, I didn't really feel like discussing this further, because it's a pointless discussion, and it probably ends nowhere, hence I deleted the post. My original response was just a mere critique at the words ''just a Gamecube port'', as if that somehow made the game inferior.
Ah, I see. I thought there was a glitch because I responded to a post on the previous page that also was deleted after I posted.

That wasn't my intent, I was referring more to what others have noted. It's the first Zelda game I ever played (though to be honest I originally bought it only to hack my Wii) and I also think the motion control implementation was better than Skyward Sword as someone else expressed. I recently purchased it second hand again, so I expect it will get a VC release soon .
As far as I remember it was ready on the Gamecube first but deliberately delayed for commercial reasons.
Definitely. It's a shame pretty much everybody only played it on Wii.
What makes the GameCube version better?
The controls are much tighter (it was clearly made for the GCN controller), you can simultaneously assign three items to X, Y, Z, everything isn't pointlessly mirrored and you can hold B while running to prepare a slash, which doesn't make much sense but sure feels epic.
Ok, maybe this kind of differences is only apparent to fans, but the GCN version is better nonetheless.
Edit: I looked over the Direct just now and nothing else was actually confirmed. Mr. Iwata just said that they are planning on releasing more titles in this format in the near future.
Did they issue a press release afterwards because I only saw these titles on their website earlier this afternoon...
