i'm really glad they're remaking Ocarina. Tried playing the original a while back and it's nearly unplayable by today's standards. Kids weren't having it, but now they will.

The 3DS version is still fairly playable, but I agree. It needed a remake.

I'm hoping the dungeons are completely new.

Nintendo neglected to mention that Fire Emblem's MSRP is $79.99. Yikes.

For just the physical edition, correct?

I guess so? This is only the second $80 game, Mario Kart was the other.

Part of their new pricing strategy of first party physical editions being $10 more than the digital version. I don't like it, but some retailers may have it closer to $69.99 at launch.

The other strategy is their "value" strategy in which some games are more expensive than others.

Wal-Mart had physical Yoshi pre-orders for the digital price. They are doing the same for Fire Emblem.

Guess I'm trading in the switch for a Switch 2 so I can be pissed off for a month or longer trying to figure out the water temple!

Velan Studios developed the new Star Fox. Not many games on their resume. I wonder if they'll be tasked with any other first party games?

Metroid Ravenous, not a Super Metroid remake, may be the next 2D Metroid released. It appears to have already been rated in Brazil.

I’m going to get a Switch 2 for this. Do I wait for the purported Zelda bundle? Would I even be able to trade my switch in for that? I think all of my games are saved on that console. I guess I could buy some external device. Anyone have a recommendation there? Maybe I should just keep the old Switch in storage? Idk.

The leaked Zelda themed Switch 2 may not actually include OoT. The TotK Switch 1 did not include TotK.
