Should Skyward Sword HD be Released for Wii U at Launch?

HD remakes are all the fad these days, but why do they have to only apply to games that have been around for awhile? This year, on November 20th in the states, we will be getting Link’s latest adventure on the Nintendo Wii. Skyward Sword is sure to be a great title, and possibly the greatest title in the series to date.

However, the next console is on the horizon next year, and Skyward Sword could very well make an excellent launch game. I am not saying that any of us need a second iteration of the title, but I know I would personally love to buy a HD version next year. It gives the title a second shelf life within it’s first year on store shelves, and it can help promote the graphical improvements the Wii U offers. Sure, there may not be any actual enhancements outside of upping the resolution, but would there need to be any?

People worry about what the Wii U Zelda title will hold. Will it have Skyward Sword‘s style? Will it go back to an advanced version of Twilight Princess like in the Wii U tech demo? What about revisiting The Wind Waker? No one knows, but I would appreciate to not have to always wonder what Skyward Sword is like in HD without resorting to emulation. I have a feeling it would really shine, and it should be cost effective to do and give the Wii U another solid title.

It makes sense to me. Would you like to see the same thing?
