News Unreal Engine 4 Programmer Returns With Fresh Batch of HD Ocarina of Time Scenes

Weirdness Ocarina of Time is a Lot Less Legendary With Waluigi as the Hero
The horror!
Poor old Waluigi. While Wario's obesity and capitalist greed nevertheless enables him to be relatively popular with a series of his own games, Waluigi's fate is to be a rather unloved member of the Nintendo family. He's just there, and those that declare themselves supporters of the purple one are relatively few in number. Thanks to...
