GamesBeat editor Jeff Grubb has confirmed the possibility of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess coming to Nintendo Switch. In confidence, he believes that Nintendo always looks forward to releasing a Zelda title every year, so it won’t be wrong to expect Wind Waker and Twilight Princess on the Switch screen. Apart from that, he also thinks that it would be wrong on their part to not release the title and simply wait for Breath of the wild 2.

Additionally, he said“I think that this game [Wind Waker and Twilight Princess bundle], as much as it was a joke in the Megabit 64 video, I do believe it actually comes out in October. I suppose Zelda could come out in September maybe, but they already got some games in September so October still sounds right to me.”

Jeff’s statement does give us a ray of hope, but we have to wait patiently, as we all know how much the Japanese giant loves to hold back its titles. With the rumors about the game, questions are being raised about how the game might release. Some fans believe that the game would be a remastered version of the original, as we all know how lazy Nintendo is with their classics. The others think that there might be a possibility of a few changes. As of now, we can’t comment on it as there is not much information available.

An additional bunch of rumors?

There is also a rumor going around about the release of the games, Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask popping up on the Nintendo Switch. It kind of gives us the green signal for a new Zelda classic releasing soon, so it’s better to keep our fingers crossed.
