Wind Waker HD and Pokemon Bundles Coming to Retail?
Retail leaks indicate new bundles are on the way.
by Jose Otero AUGUST 20, 2013
A retail source told Destructoid that Nintendo will offer special hardware bundles for Zelda Wind Waker HD and Pokemon X and Y this Fall.


The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD will come bundled with a 32GB Deluxe Wii U system. The report also indicated two 3DS XL bundles for Pokemon X and Y will come to stores priced at $199. The individual systems will come in the colors red and blue.

Destructoid has not learned the release dates for these bundles, but both bundles are expected in October. Pokemon X and Y releases on October 12. Wind Waker HD does not have a confirmed US release date at this time.

The report came from an anonymous source at Target who verified the bundles using a store’s inventory tracking system. We emailed Nintendo for an individual response and will update this story with their comment.

UPDATE: Nintendo of America says they have nothing to announce at this time.

Zelda Wind Waker

UPDATE #2: A trailer for Hero Mode revealed the look of the Wii U Zelda bundle. According to the initial report on Destructoid, this bundle will retail for $349.99.


I don't understand why they just don't make Windwaker a 3DS game...because the art style looks like some nick jr. type of ? .....I need something in the ilk of twilight princess.....however....I will be copping that A link between worlds....hopefully they bundle that

    My lil cousin wants Pokemon X and Y so badly but has no 3DS because my uncle (well not really my real uncle but his dad who banged my aunt once upon a time) is such a cheapskate. Poor kid doesn't even have a regular DS. I decided I'm going to give him my 3DS along with all my games once I buy one of the new home consoles.
