The First 50 Minutes Of The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild On Wii U
We have spent a lot of time with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Switch, but the Wii U version – the console the game was originally developed for – has been somewhat mysterious. We've played that version at assorted events, like E3 2016, but today was our first opportunity to take a deeper look.
We will have some extended, written hands-on impressions soon, but ahead of those, the video below showcases the first 50 minutes of the game on Wii U, giving you a substantial idea of idea of how the game runs on Nintendo's previous console.
For more on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you can find our review here, as well as some spoiler-free tips for starting the game here.
