“This is the European version of the game with corrected aspect ratio” – GoNintendo

This new addition to the Nintendo eShop will become accessible in Europe on Thursday July 2nd, for the price of £8.99/€9.99. There will be a discount if the owner has it on the Wii and wishes to move it over to the Wii U as an upgrade.

Why the game is awesome

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time poses to be one of the best Zelda games when it comes to story, plot, soundtrack, and even the updated graphics. It will become a great addition to the virtual console service, bringing some more Zelda nostalgia to the Wii U. 

I know I’m very excited for this addition, and will be getting it when it’s available. While no official release date is available for the US edition, we anticipate it coming soon after the EU edition drops.
