4) The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
2006’s The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess might not be the most innovative title in the series, but it’s certainly one of the grandest. Twilight Princess represents the pinnacle of the traditional Zelda format, with a massive overworld, devious dungeons, epic boss battles, and a sweeping narrative. The gauntlet-like final battle against Ganon, in particular, is a sight to behold. If remade in HD, Twilight Princess‘s amazing art direction would be further fleshed out by the power of Wii U. The use of the GamePad for inventory and health monitoring would free up a great deal of real estate on the main screen, putting the game’s rich vistas on full display. The intensity and scope of Twilight Princess was a stark departure from previous installments and remains just as engaging in a world post-Skyward Sword.
