This thing is coming out the week before GTA, isn't it?
Will there be a Switch version of that?
Nope

I decided to boot up Tears of the Kingdom to finally beat it. Low and behold, I discovered a set of sky islands I never explored. Found the missing four shrines!

I haven't played that part yet! Got to gear up and research the right food to cook. I have so many items.

I love BOTW but cooking and horse management can go straight to Dark World

Based on a retailer listing, releasing on December 1. I liked the October 23 and November 13 rumored dates better.

That could just be a placeholder too. Games aren't typically released on Tuesdays anymore. I think it it would be a mistake to release it after Black Friday, but what do I know?!

Right after GTA is a bad move too.

Monolith listed as the developer per a retailer listing.
And
The Korean rating board has given the remake a Teen rating instead of the Everyone rating they gave to the original OoT. Maybe there's more changes than initially thought.
The Zelda specific Nintendo Direct should occur in the next few weeks.

Rumored announcement for next week. Nintendo's never simultaneously released a special edition console, joy cons and a pro controller. I hope the Collector's Edition rumor is true.
Nintendo Switch 2 console – Zelda: Ocarina of Time Edition
Switch Pro Controller 2 – Zelda: Ocarina of Time Edition
Joy-Con 2 Pair – Zelda: Ocarina of Time Edition
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time – Nintendo Switch 2 game
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time – Collector's Edition

November 5th. That seems like a great release date before GTA.

I'm happy with that date. Looked pretty same-sy to me.

I don't think I have an issue with it being a 1 to 1 remake. The game is pretty timeless. The open areas look pretty "Ocarina in Unreal 5" to me, but the art direction and enemy design look fun.

I'm sure there will be some surprises/new stuff in there, but I'm excited for the nostalgia of it all.

The camera control, jump button, and full explorable 3d areas are enough for me.

ah fuck, the new Link looks just like one of my kid's most annoying friends. This is going to be a problem.
