The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD is available on March 4th digitally, sans amiibo, and more or less comes alone.
While a big new release comes in the shape of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD, this week’s Nintendo Download is fairly paltry, even by paltry standards. The Virtual Console sees PAC-MAN 2: The New Adventures, and a couple of low key titles hit the eShops (such as Chasing Dead and STEEL RIVALS for the Wii U).
Otherwise, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is at an easy price of $19.99 until March 5th, as is the excellent Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth. SMT: Devil SUmmoner: Sould Hackers, meanwhile, is selling for $9.99, so if you’re into hard-core, retro RPGs give it a shot. Azure Striker GUNVOLT, from Inti Creates, may also help you reconnect with your retro side, as the 2D action throwback with mighty sprite work is also available for $9.99 until June 1st.
