1080p resolution boost, an option to play dual analog (motion controls is the other option) controls, and a very likely implementation of several quality of life changes are definitive pluses. Someone threw around 60fps in the switch board, but I don't think that's confirmed.

However, this game didn't get the Twilight Princess HD or Windwaker HD treatment in terms of HD textures, lighting and shadows, which is extremely dissapoiting.

I'm sure its gonna be a great zelda game with the QoL changes for fans that haven't played this game or enjoyed the wii version. I do recommend it, and I absolutely loved the wii version (had no issues with controls, minus some mini games), but I can't buy it again for a full $60 for a remastered wii game out of principle. It feels like a slap in the face. I mean HD textures would have been appreciated!

I'm definitely digging the button-only mode. Now if they can get Fi and a lot of the game explanation text to stfu, I might consider purchasing.

Still think it should've been a Zelda 3D HD collection, though.

Did they fix the game itself too?

Sorry dude but I think you're gonna be in the minority here. It was the weakest zelda game for me.

Yeap. How does Nintendo justify 60 when they just gave us an HD WII game, HD GC game, and HD64 game all three for the same 60.

Removing Fi as a whole would improve the game 10 fold. Such a horrible character. Good lord.

People who enabled nintendo are fucked in the head. Any normal, reasonable person would see these IP's as overvalued.

Super Mario 3D Collection sold over 8 million copies. It's the normal people who are buying them. It's likely also the people complaining who are still buying them.

Nintendo IP's are literally some of the most valuable IP's you can find.

If THQ Nordic could sell a remastered version of Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom for $60 and sell 8 million copies they would.

sure, that's your opinion. This game had its faults.. but looks like there's going to be a lot of QoL changes.I doubt controls is the only one. I'm sure FI and other things will change.

There were ocarina cheats on the Wii version that stripped out most of Fi's nagging and all of the item notifications along with a few other QoL stuff.

It made the game 1000% better. I could never go back to playing the game without it...

So many people who are excited to finally play this are going to be so disappointed, especially for $60. I feel for them already.

Still pissed that they havent ported WWHD and TPHD to Switch.

I would gladly pay $60+ for a bundle of those two on Switch.

I never got to play SS because I was too cheap to get that addon for the Wiimote that I needed to play it

Don't worry guys, we'll get a collection of the NES LoZ, LttP and OoT later this year for the low, low price of $60. Available until 3/31/2022, of course.
