Hey listen! I don’t know how to feel about this look. I’m happy about the Remake, because it will be realized in full 3D, without the early technical limitations of Nintendo 64. But I guess we need to see this in action in the game, rather than this quick few seconds at non gameplay sequence. Will this be a re-imagining like Final Fantasy 7 Remake was? Sure the overworld map will be more interesting this time without loading screens in between the areas, with the lessons learned from Breath of the Wild. More than the graphics update, I’m very curious about the gameplay changes and how the world will be layed out. And the soundtrack off course. How far will Nintendo diverge from the original?
BTW I won’t buy a Switch 2, so will miss out on this unfortunately.
Edit: As a reminder, the original game got unofficially decompiled and ported to PC (you have to provide a Rom file for the assets), with possible enhancements while staying true to the original game: https://www.shipofharkinian.com/
You paid $500 for a Switch 1?
Something around that, I don’t remember exactly
I want to say the OLED peaked at USD$350, what countries dollar were you speaking of?
The Switch OLED is currently $400, only $50 less than a Switch 2 (until Sept.) That’s an insane price!
$300 something for the system, $60 for the game, not sure how much a pair of pro controllers cost, but I walked out spending close enough to $500 for the point to stand.
US dollars, don’t remember what year I bought it. I’m guessing around 2018, it was shortly after breath of the wild released.
Then you got it in 2017 and if you only got the console and BotW, it was $360 + tax, which is below $400 even if you paid the highest sales tax in the country at the time. So it’s a $400 Zelda machine.
They also said a pair of Pro Controllers, which would have been ~$70 a piece, so right around that $500 price point, probably over.
Rather disingenuous at that point, as those were not necessary to play the game.
