That's a shame, drop this on Wii U w/ Link and I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Given the crappy graphics and the failure to include Link I don't think that this truly "counts" as an HD remake.

If simply upping the resolution to 1280*720, while leaving the textures and model detail as before (which is what this looks like), qualifies as making a "HD" version of a game then every single emulated N64, PS2 & Dreamcast title that I've ever played have been "HD" remakes, and they didn't require spending an additional cent or waiting years for the developers to get around to making it. Who knew?

You're an idiot. Why would non Nintendo consoles include Nintendo characters? Is your IQ even at 55? Even people with 55 IQ have at least basic understanding of simple principles.

Hoping this gets a release for iOS like the first Soul Calibur did, especially now that iOS is getting real game controllers with proper D-pads. Looking forward to hearing Cassandra's bratty dialogue again.

I'll just be blunt now one seems to care about the wii-u at this point, not for hd remakes and not even for current gen or next gen games.

Crappy graphics? And god will people shut the hell up about Link for Christ sakes. He's not even good in the game.

Either SC2 was the last one I really liked. Count me in.

You know what how's about I don't because of the lack of a wii-u version and the fact it would have sold just fine digitally.
