Link's Awakening was a magical experience. It was a short game and many claimed it wasn't worth paying full price for. I agree and disagree. It had a few problems; it took some community tweaking to get the game performing at a stable 60fps and to remove the excessive blur, there's no 360 degree movement and the dungeon builder sucked. We should expect better from a Zelda game. But the game did everything else perfectly. It had a unique artstyle and mesmerizing soundtrack. The levels were well designed. The gameplay was pretty much what you should expect from a 2D Zelda game.

There is a rumored A Link to the Past remake in development. I hope Nintendo learns from their mistakes with Link's Awakening. It would be cool for an older Zelda game to be remade each year and new titles come out every 3-4 years.

I just wish they'd remake the sprite based games with sprites.
Really didn't like the clunky robotic way toy link handled and looked while walking

I'm against remakes because I just think it's a developers way of making a quick buck. They took a GBC game that was 29.99 and doubled the price. Old games deserve that special place in our heart. But I know some people that are willing to buy them

Remakes are great they make it so as we never forget the originals as people wil be curious the search the original - Old games wil always hav ther history-so you've never pld resident evil 2 remake and not going to experience ff7 remake just because you think devs are making a quick buck lol thers no quick buck involved these games are transformed dramatically and take time to make its not like they take a few weeks to do-its yr loss mate if don't play any remakes

I played the the new RE2 game but what I'm saying Is normally remakes shouldn't be full price but they charge you full price. And about FF7 I personally played it for a little bit on PS1. I tend to skip remakes since you already know the story.


Same thing I said about Kakarot if you never played the game before or know the story you should buy it but if you're just buying a game for bells and whistles and going to pay full price for it that isnt good. I never played RE2 so I went to the remake but I didn't spend money on it

I never played RE2 before on PS1. I'll use pokemon ruby as an example I player the game in 2003. Omega Ruby came out in 2014 I skipped the game since I already played it 11 years ago. When I say I'm against remakes I'm against paying for something I already played before since they charging you full price.

BOTW should have never been $60. Should have been $40 at most since it was released not too long ago

Skyward Sword with Traditional Controls and Joy-Con Enhanced.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Are you mad the game was released on the same day on both machines - how the heck is tht a remaster lol
Yeah, BotW was at best an updated/tweaked version.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe wasn't "remastered" or anything, but also just updated. The game looks pretty much the same.

Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 remastered with Pro Controller and Joy-Con support would be awesome. I know, it's not a Zelda game, but still.

Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, please. And Skyward Sword.

Skyward Sword, Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD are still playable on a modern HDMI-console though (the Wii U), but Skyward Sword looks dated. (As there is just the Wii version and no HD)

Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are difficult to play on a modern TV today. Sure, you could buy a Gamecube, or a Wii (hacked if you want the downloadable OoT and MM as the shop is closed), but most people won't go through the trouble so many might miss out on these old classics.

I'm all for remakes, and I'm prepared to pay for it. Why not? If I haven't played the game, and it is updated to modern standards, if it's still a good game it might be worth the money. On Steam I've bought several remakes and updates, such as Castle of Illusion, Duck Tales, Giana Sisters, and whatever. Ok, at a lower price, but still, I can't understand the hostility towards remakes/remasters.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

    run h2testw on it
