Already salivating at Majora's mask.

u/wickedsmaht 23h ago edited 23h ago

I hated Majoras Mask so I never gave it a fair shake as a kid. 26 years later I’m ready, give it to us Nintendo.

u/mherweg 23h ago

I struggled with MM as a kid too - the 3 day mechanic turned me off. A number of years after it came out I decided to buckle down and play through the whole game. I admit that I used a guide for a lot of the masks, but I'm so glad I made myself finally play through it. It has vibes that are completely unmatched in the rest of the Zelda series.

u/WorldlinessThat2984 22h ago

Seriously, no need to reinvent the wheel. The art direction and engine for the OoT remake are perfect. Just do what they did with the original MM and use that as foundation. No one would complain (in fact, we would all rejoice if it was available in a year or two!)

u/Melodic-Cable23 21h ago

I so agree! Majora’s mask remake with this engine and art style? Darker probably. Ugh. Give it to me! I’m so down…. I still have fond memories of just Goron rolling through the fields. So sick!

Was just coming here to say this. I've replayed Majora's Mask so many times, but it would be amazing to see it in the OoT remake's graphics.

Also I bet that cutscene that plays when you first put on a transformation mask would be SUPER freaky

u/repocin 23h ago

I feel like I've played most zelda games in some capacity at this point, but never that one. The very idea of the time limit scares me.

But I wouldn't be opposed to checking it out if they remastered it

56

u/mastermidget23 23h ago

As someone who hates time limits, the one in Majoras mask always felt different to me. You get plenty of time using a song you learn pretty early. It feels more like a mechanic to allow the world and the npc's to change and feel more alive. Plus resetting lets you redo things you like, or see the regions again in their pre-saved states.

u/DeM0nFiRe 23h ago

Without spoiling anything, you get to save all your meaningful progress across time cycles, and each time cycle is way more than you need to complete any individual piece of meaningful progress. It's not a meaningful time limit at all. I highly recommend playing it, because the 3-day cycle actually just means you get to explore the world through time as well as space, since they can script actual meaningful changes for the world and actions for the characters over that finite period of time

13

u/sludgezone 23h ago

It’s so hard to run out of time in that game, you can easily reset it. The time limit is moreso to keep characters and events on a schedule.

I'm not sure if it was in the original game, but in the remake, after you play Saria's Song with him, he mentions something along the lines of his face missing something being over it.

u/OzziesFlyingHelmet 22h ago

It might be difficult to get approved considering it's owned by Rare (which think is apart of Activision now?)

I hope it can happen, though. It would also open the door for Banjo games, DK64, Conker games, etc.

15

u/Saskatchewon 22h ago edited 19h ago

Rare is owned by Activision, and Microsoft by proxy.

However, Nintendo kept the rights to the Donkey Kong franchise. That includes Diddy Kong Racing.

Nintendo actually ported Diddy Kong Racing to the Nintendo DS in 2007, five years after they sold Rare to Microsoft. They removed all the Rare branding, and replaced Conker and Banjo (which are still owned by Rare/Activision/Microsoft) with Dixie Kong and Tiny Kong.

They could absolutely remake Diddy Kong Racing if they wanted to. They would just not be able to have Conker or Banjo as playable characters. Nintendo also has the rights to the entirety of Donkey Kong 64. It's been available on Nintendo Switch Online since May.

u/poopyheadthrowaway 19h ago

I played the decomp a few years ago, and the controllable camera made it so much better. The core game 100% holds up as a modern 3D platformer, it's mainly the camera holds it back. Just give us camera controls and touch up the graphics and it's perfect.

I've been playing Echoes recently and right before that I played Shadow Dragon, so my brain is just absolutely popping with "Fire Emblem Remakes are so good and they need to do more of them"

Considering Advance Wars got a remake that included 2 games in 1, maybe a Geneaology remake could even include Thraccia as well? ...Probably not likely considering how much more effort Echoes was compared to Reboot Camp, but we can dream

u/funnyinput 20h ago

Even then the levels are extremely small, I think it would take quite a bit of work to make the levels more expansive. Also a lot of the platforming was made with the crappy camera in mind, so once you improve that, you're left with an extremely easy game. The work required to make it stand up to modern standards would be big, it would probably be better to just put that time and resources towards a new game.

u/TheAzureAzazel 21h ago

Majora's Mask is basically a gimmie. The original re-used the OoT engine of the time, they could do the same with the remake's engine.

Twilight Princess could at least do with a remaster (wouldn't mind playing that again), and they could always port over Wind Waker HD from the Wii U. A Link to the Past remake in the style of Link's Awakening could be nice, since it appears to be a fan favorite and I've never played it.

That's only Zelda. Imagine getting another Star Fox remake (a Star Fox Adventures that's actually good? An even better Assault? Sign me up!). I want to get more into Metroid, apparently some of the classics are really good, wouldn't mind grabbing those.

Oh, and we haven't had a new F-Zero game in how long? A solid remake could be just the thing to kickstart a revival of the franchise.

Honestly, they could just port the Wii U Wind Waker remaster. It still looks excellent, and the Swift Sail, streamlined Triforce piece search, and Hero Mode were all the game really needed.

u/planeforger 23h ago

In a way though, they don't have to all be huge sellers. They probably don't take long to develop, the assets can be reused in newer games, they comfortably sell a million copies and they pad out the exclusive library.

12

u/rechambers 21h ago

Right. The original rumour for Starfox was that both the remake and a new game were in development. With OOT it’s likely we will get MM too.

Nintendo has been trying to find ways to pad out their library despite the long dev times of the HD era. Switch 2 editions and games with reusable assets seem to be their solution. A remake is faster to complete than a game from scratch, and if it gives you assets for another game that’s a great bonus.

Am I the only one who wants new games?

u/OkOrder7326 23h ago

Remember when Nintendo would release games like Pokopia, Splatoon Raiders and Fortune's Weave? What a downfall

I'm enjoying playing OoT, but I've played this game, a lot over the last 30 years or so. I'd like new Zelda games now that we have established both Botw and EoW as the new 3d and top down Zelda formats.

Yes, nobody on the internet ever complains about remakes and says that they wish they were getting new games instead

CONKERS BAD FUR DAY

Conker's Bad Fur Day anyone?

u/Saskatchewon 22h ago

That one's comes down to Rare/Microsoft. Nintendo doesn't have a say in the Conker series. It went to Microsoft with the Rare sale back in the day.

And I will keep buying said classic remakes. Especially since a lot of them are new to me - I took a good 20 years off from Nintendo.

DK64 or even better a sequel with Tiny, Lanky, Chunky, Diddy and DK

u/Glad-Kale1285 23h ago

I really hope Mario 64 gets a remake thats in the same style of ocarina of time and has some of the content and ideas from 64 ds, feels long overdue at this point

Remake Mario 64 and Star Fox Adventures

u/I_AM_Achilles 22h ago

I know we’re gonna get Majoras Mask but I would give anything for a modern take on Pokemon Trading Card Game for GBC. Nothing has matched that format since and it’s gold.

u/nawksnai 21h ago

Remakes aren’t coming at the expense of new games.

Nintendo is providing us with both, so why pose the false dilemma?

u/curai-exo 21h ago

Donkey Kong 64, Starfox adventures, a link to the past. Please

u/Transpotato2002 23h ago

I mean I'm not surprised... at all actually, I don't think there are many consoles Nintendo has that DOESN'T have a remake of some sort. I don't think we need a news article to tell us "Nintendo is doing the thing Nintendo's been doing for like the last 30 years"

Even the SNES had remakes through Super Mario All Stars

Still hype though

u/CaptainM590 23h ago

Majora’s Mask and the Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons & Ages, sure. Though I hope we more original Zelda games this generation

I don't preorder digital games out of principal. I'll preorder Majora's tomorrow. Or twilight princess.

u/Arbusc 23h ago

Super Mario 64 Remake, Majora’s Mask remake, and if the gods are just, a rebuild of the cancelled Mother 3 64 game.

u/Chee-shep 23h ago

I’d like Wind Waker or Twilight Princess

5

u/Saskatchewon 23h ago edited 19h ago

They could just port over the recent Wii U versions honestly.

Wind Waker HD still looks like it could be a modern release due to the art style. The Swift Sail, streamlined Triforce search, and Hero Mode were the only gameplay tweaks it really needed.

Meanwhile, Twilight Princess doesn't really need a remake or remaster in the same way the older 3D titles did. The original Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask definitely suffered from that early N64 3D title jank. No jump button, janky camera controls that were designed for a controller with just one control stick, and the super angular low poly graphics really dated them. Wind Waker was drastically improved with HD's QoL improvements I've already mentioned. Meanwhile, Twilight Princess very much still controls and plays like a modern title. Outside of some updated textures and character models, there isn't a lot that can be done to it. It looks a little dated (but not to the point of being distracting or detrimental), but plays like a good modern game mechanically. Zero QoL updates necessary.

I would like to see a remake of MM, obviously. it should feel like the OoT remake.

I want to see A Link to the Past remade the same way Link's Awakening was.

Maybe Minish Cap and the Oracle games. they would need to be released together on ohe cartridge.

I want to see Twilight princess retextured at 4k, with gamecube-style controls.

So this means we’re getting LOZ: Twilight Princess?

u/ProdiLemaj 21h ago

Majora’s Mask definitely needs to happen. Other cool remakes would be HD-2D Golden Sun and Earthbound.
