With Zelda U and Wind Waker HD Coming, There's No Hope For Majora's Mask Remake

With the huge announcements made for Zelda U and Wind Waker HD, a lot of fans have rejoiced. But to every upside, there is a down. That would be that the odds of Majora's Mask being remade have lowered substantially.

Actually dont be shocked if its at e3 on the 3ds.
Ocarina of time did well on 3ds so majoras mask on 3ds makes sense.

EddieNX 4123d ago

Indeed. Majora's mask and Ocarina don't need or even merit 3D remakes. To turn N64 games into HD you basically have to rebuild the entire game from the ground up. However as demonstrated with ocarina 3D with just a simple re-texturing and the pre rendering replaced with real time and a few other effects in 3D looks absoloutly amazing and suits the 3DS graphics level perfectly.

So Majora's mask should get the same treatment as Ocarina did for 3DS and maybe they should add a Master quest mode or something to up the content a little.

Windwaker , TP , Skyward sword are much more suitable for HD remakes.

I agree. I mean, they already have the engine running on 3DS. It'd be a waste not to make MM.

AJBACK2FRAG4123d ago

I pray there's still a chance. It's still so early in the WiiU's lifecycle. I should be satisfied with the W.W. remake but like most Nintendo fans I'm never satisfied! Get to work boys!

Don't count it out just yet. Depends on how long the next zelda game takes to develop. I mean we have only been told that there is one and have been show nothing (tech demo doesn't count as it was a tech demo for the system). We could be getting a HD remake of this as well. Just depeds on how long zelda takes to develop

I never really liked Majora's Mask, I prefer Wind Waker and Ocarina of Time but I hope we do get a remake it'll be good for the fans and for a new generation to get a chance to play it. :)

Please Nintendo no more rehashes.Put all of your effort toward making new IPs. We have a bunch of the same old stuff as it is.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the anti-Breath of the Wild

Polygon: "To get back to the way Ocarina made us feel, it was necessary to reject almost everything about it."

LG_Fox_Brazil141d ago

Ocarina of Time changed my life forever, such a masterpiece

Zeldafan64140d ago

Hard to believe it's 25 years old already.

Cacabunga140d ago

The feeling this game gave me the first time i had my hands on it is indescribable.. i still get the chill from that day..
botw is like a spin off of the series.. it’s fun but with many flaws and the most important which is Zelda formula isn’t there..

FinalFantasyFanatic139d ago

I can't even remember how many times I played through OoT, I finished that game, and collected everything so many times.

Vits140d ago

I generally agree with the author here. However, if I had to point out a single game as the 'anti-Breath of the Wild,' that would be Majora's Mask. Pretty much everything in that game is interconnected, relies on something that the player must have done previously, is timed, and can be considered a puzzle in itself.

gold_drake140d ago

but still considered the best of the seties.

i would have liked botw to be more like ocarina.

franwex140d ago (Edited 140d ago )

25 years from today whatever Zelda is out people would too be looking fondly at Breath of the Wild.

Ah the more simple times of the 2020s.

babadivad140d ago (Edited 140d ago )

It isn't...
