Cult PS2 Game, Legend of Kay, Is Getting A Wii U Remaster

I haven't played the original at all, but this is pretty interesting for Wii U owners. I may pick it up, if it turns out to be good. :)

Wiki article says Wii U, PC and MAC.


What kind of gameplay is it? Never heard of it, but it looks neat.

To me, it felt more like a level-based Zelda game. It was pretty fun. The only thing that annoyed me was the Che-inspired imagery in one of the levels, but other than that, good times. Just avoid the DS version like the plague. Trust me on this one.

Yeah, it's also coming to PC platforms as well. But for consoles, it's supposedly going to be a Wii U exclusive.

Huh, that's kinda surprising.

Nice to see that its getting a retail release, which means I'm interested.

Although, it seems that its only coming out in Europe? I'm not seeing a US release date.

That's pretty much the only thing I noticed that's a genuine flaw; the fact that it's got a European release only so far.

Maybe it's gonna be available worldwide on that day? Or the US release is later down the road?

Interesting, the gameplay videos I saw looked like the 3DS Version of Skylanders. Not a bad thing, just curious.

This could possibly be the most random gaming event of the year.

I hope it does get a US release though since Nintendo had to go and region lock everything. :|

Interesting choice for a Remaster. I do remember seeing this on a few Youtube hidden gems videos though. It seems like a solid game but still a strange choice for a remaster. Either way I'll be picking it up at some point if it gets a NA release since I plan on getting a full NA set for Wii U.

The WiiU misses Resident Evil CVX & REmake HD, Beyond Good & Evil, ICO, & Shadow of Collusus remakes but lands this exclusively in the console world. random......

In all fairness I enjoy seeing these from that generation. Most had SD 4:3 TVs upon release and the base graphics were fine, just cool to see them in 16:9 HD.
