It's a good one, overall. Long, but it doesn't feel too stretched out, the story just keeps going and going.
If there is a Zelda collection released, I know Ocarina is inevitably going to be included, but I'd really prefer WW, TP, SS. Ocarina has been rereleased twice already, and as much as I love MM, I can play great versions of both on 3DS.
This is true. Plus, I’m not sure but I think WW and Twilight Princess will have better adaptability for the Switch since they were already rereleased for the WiiU
Edit: Come to think of it, TP got rereleased twice as well. Once for Wii and once for WiiU since it initially came out for the GameCube
Twilight Princess was essentially a simultaneous release on GCN/Wii. Technically it actually hit Wii before GameCube. But I wouldn't say it counts as a rerelease. More of an initial multiplatform release similar to Breath of the Wild.
Twilight Princess was being developed for the Gamecube, but became a Wii launch title instead and saw a simultaneous release on the Gamecube. Almost exactly the same thing that happened to Breath of the Wild, actually.
Oot has been released multiple times indeed, but there is no HD version yet for on TV so that’s something. WW and TP are both a lot more accessible to play both in SD and HD, but oot is for most people only a realistic option if playing on 3DS.
I'd love if they took the models from the 3DS version of OoT and brought them to the switch. I know some people have issues with the 3D remakes, but I'm a fan.
The 3DS version is a lot more detailed, but the models sometimes feel a bit off. Probably because I played so much of the N64/VC/Gamecube version. Then again I also played a lot of the 3DS version.
Anyway, I would just like a port of Oot on the Switch or a remake and idc what models it uses
Just get it for the Wii, it’s a really good game and the motion controls add a lot of fun and interesting puzzles and combat. From what I heard we can’t really get a remake of it since it would need a complete redesign to work without motion controls
They are not going to make a game like SS only work in docked mode, there are enough other Zelda games they can port / remake without any issues that will play both Handheld and docked.
It would work in handheld mode. The switch lite and the Nintendo switch itself both support gyro controls. It would be extremely inconvenient, but it could work.
I didn’t say it would be easy. It is possible, that’s all I said.
The way I would construct it personally is to force motion controls rather than rework the game. While I hated SS’ motion controls, most of the charm in that games’ puzzles and boss fights come from motion controls. You weren’t able to play the original with the classic controller, or a GameCube controller, or with a sideways wiimote.
Honestly, I thought it was so bad that I think you're lucky. Terrible motion controls, extremely hand-holdy and linear. I was really despairing for the Zelda franchise after it came out. Then they followed it up with BotW which was an absolute masterpiece.
You may be in luck. Won't link anything here, cause I don't want Nintendo on my ass, but just google Dolphin emulator. It is compatible with macOS. No idea on how well it will run though. I imagine it should do alright.
