Leave it to Nintendo to basically remake one of the most critically acclaimed games in their history and then barely mention how much of an impressive remake it is, lol.

Like jeezus, this is a full blown remake almost, not a port-dump remastered ROM running at higher resolution. The lighting, physics engine is completely new, the graphics in every area including geometry models are redone, etc. etc.

Yeah it's kinda hilarious how they threw this out there mid-direct like it was nothing, and even priced it at $40, when it's an absolutely stellar remake of one of the best games of all time.

They absolutely could've gotten away with just putting the Gamecube graphics in 1080p and called it a day, they didn't have to go this hard, yet they did... and then they act like its no big deal haha
