The Wii U is the successor of the Wii; it can output HD graphics up to 1080p, making the Wii U Nintendo's first HD console. The Wii U comes with a unique controller called the Wii U GamePad, that utilizes a proprietary high-speed wireless connection with the console that allows synchronized full-framerate video on the GamePad's screen, with a latency of just 1/60 of a second.[1] The GamePad features a resistive touchscreen, like the Nintendo DS and 3DS systems. The Wii U was announced at E3 2011.

Developer Shigeru Miyamoto announced that he would like to make a high-definition Zelda game for the Wii U.[2] Satoru Iwata mentioned that there will be a Zelda Wii U game, but now is not the time to announce it.[3]

Demo

At E3 2011, there was a booth for the console, which featured a myriad of tech demos for the Wii U. Most notably, the Zelda HD Experience, a tech demo for the Wii U, was shown. Its appearance was similar to Twilight Princess. On the television screen, a boss battle took place, while on the controller, an item screen was displayed. The camera angles and the time of day could be switched as part of the demonstration.
