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/
I would be so excited for this if I was still willing to support Nintendo
Same. Just hoping for an emulator in the future
They lost my support after TotK in 2023, but the RAMpocalypse worked in their favor to bring me back in 2026. Affordable options for new gaming hardware will be pretty much nonexistent for years to come, so I went ahead and got a Switch 2 while it’s still at its lowest price so I at least know I’ll be able to play their exclusives for the life of the console. I won’t be paying for NSO or anything other than their good single player exclusives, though, as I have a Steam Deck for everything else.
