According to an insider, all further Zelda remakes will be made on the BotW engine and using the game’s models.

That sounds... Awful. Each previous Zelda game is unique. Why on earth would they remake windwaker/TP with the BOTW engine and art style? They would lose their identity. Hopefully BS.

Wasn’t the BotW engine based heavily on the WWHD engine? And TPHD was based either on the WWHD or BotW engine? It worked fine for those games. Plus, I wouldn’t expect nor want Nintendo prioritizing resources to creating an entirely new engine just to create a WW/TP remake… unless you have a different idea in mind?
