As part of our ongoing promise to have more opinion pieces and original content, it’s time to add another article to that list and this time we’re keeping it Zelda focused.
While not every Zelda fan is happy with all the Zelda remasters/remakes and releases we’ve been getting the last decade, there are still plenty of us who have been enjoying them immensely and since it is common belief that we will get at least one more remaster before 2020 finally comes, is it time for a remake of one of the Capcom games?
ScreenRant's Matthew Wilcox writes, "Remakes of two Legend of Zelda games would have plenty of opportunities for improvements, but may also remove a key feature in the process."
NE: "We look at the most overlooked Zelda game, why it's a good entry, and why a remake would make sense for Nintendo."
Remakes would then warrant full price games at £50. Would much prefer a Zelda collection, but that's never going to happen. I never played these games. Prefer 2D Zelda games, last one I played was Minish Cap.
I completed both recently, and they're okay. They've got nothing on A Link to the Past, but they did feature a few challenging dungeon puzzles, overall they are worth a playthrough, but also not that memorable.
Dave writes, "The smaller, tighter, and more child-like experience was a joy to play for the first time. The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap has quickly shot up my list of favourite games in the Zelda franchise."
Glad you enjoyed! Loved this game, and always felt it wasn't appreciated/talked about enough. Capcom did an admirable job handling the Zelda franchise w due respect. Loved the shrinking mechanic. :)
Minish Cap and Oracle of Ages do something that the 3D games haven't quite achieved in my opinion. With the exception being Majora's Mask, as I would say it more captures the spirit of 2D Zeldas.
I wouldn't mind remakes of Oracle of Seasons/Ages with a visual style similar to that of A Link Between Worlds.
