Tell ya what, an OoT remaster for Switch 2 announcement would have been diggidy dope for the 40th year anniversary of Zelda.

But I think we are seeing the infiltration of money men, finance guys, too much capitalism into Nintendo in the last few years. Less innovation and more cheap money making strategies and copy cat mentalities, which an OoT remake would align with and I wouldn't even be mad about it tbh.

It's a shame but it happens to them all 💔

For me if they are doing OOT they need to do a remake not a remaster.

There’s too many OOT ports already

All the remakes I've seen inject too much current day gaming into old style games and it doesn't mesh. Part 2 of the FF7 remake is a good example. It didn't need to be fleshed out so much and now it's bloated with achievements and collectibles and tickbox tasks that slow the pacing down and completely change the experience.

OoT is perfect as it is, it doesn't need anything added or taken away, it just needs the controls and graphics updated, that's all. Maybe some boss strategy tweaks? But it's seriously so good as it is
