Yakuza HD 1&2

Via (shudder) Kotaku comes news that Yakuza 1&2 HD is making its way to the Wii U in Japan. Already released to PS3, the collection will be hitting the Wii U in August, and will utilize the GamePad by way of in-game maps and GamePad-only play. No mention has been made of a Western release, and given that the PS3 version has not made its way West, a Wii U Western release would be a bold move for Nintendo. Given the recent Sonic exclusivity announcement, making such a bold move isn’t such a crazy possibility for Nintendo and SEGA.

Yakuza 1&2 HD edition: PS2 vs. PS3 version

by

Sony has been pumping HD collections for awhile and gamers have had mix opinions, but this time its SEGA’s first time and I’m excited. I’m a big Yakuza fan, so having the first two (especially the 2nd one) in HD with some nice widescreen and softing up of the jaggies.

Want to see more comparisons? Hit up Siliconera’s article with a ton more photos. Sadly no US release date for the collection has been announced.
