I genuinely can't wait to hear it Khuutra. Talking with you always turns out interesting.

Nintendo could have at least done a remake of an older game to make it somewhat fresh. I would have loved to see ALttP redone since it's first version was 2d. Seeing a remake of ALttP would at least mean something new and fresh. But look at the pictures someone already posted in here. Yeah the visuals look nicely updated, but it isn't much. It won't change the way the game plays. It's prettier scenery.
What I don't understand are the Nintendo fans who have been flinging curses at "HD fanboys and the graphics whores" when those same Nintendo fans oogle over basically what amounts to an HD update of OoT. And they're willing to repay a full price for a mere HD graphics update.
As the type of gamer I am, I would have at least appreciated an ALttP remake. That would been a hundred times more fresh and new. But Nintendo knows they can release the same OoT game over and over and people will eat it up. They've done it what... three times already? These fans make me sick. It's a gold mine for Nintendo. It makes me mad because I know Nintendo is the only company capable of making their amazing franchises, and when fans beg for "just the same game ported or slightly updated please" it makes me sad because I know Nintendo is capable of so much better. But if they don't have to do the effort, they won't. It's smart, and I'd do the same thing in their position.
I have a dislike for the core gamer who only asks for the same game over and over.
