Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

In an interview with the technology and gaming website IGN, Nintendo has revealed the key facts and differences between playing their highly anticipated The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on the new Nintendo Switch console and the older Nintendo Wii U.

If you are considering upgrading from an old Wii U or purchasing the game especially to play on your Wii U the list of key facts for each version is worth reading before parting with your hardened cash.
In a statement provided to IGN, Nintendo explains more about the “key facts” for each version of Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild:

– Both launch on the same day, March 3.
– Both have a frame rate of 30fps.
– Both versions of the game offer the same content.
– On a TV, the Nintendo Switch version of the game renders in 900p while the Wii U version renders in 720p.
– The Nintendo Switch version has higher-quality environmental sounds. As a result, the sound of steps, water, grass, etc. are more realistic and enhance the game’s Open-Air feel.
– The physical copy of the Wii U version will require 3GB of available memory on the Wii U system or an external drive.
– Some icons, such as onscreen buttons, differ between the two versions.
– A Special Edition and Master Edition of the Wii U version are not available.
