So I’ve beaten the first real Zelda game on switch (Links Awakening) and I’ve been wondering what we’re likely to see next in terms of remakes/ports. Of course there are the obvious contenders - SSHD, a port of WWHD and TPHD - but what else could we see?
Personally I would love to see the first 2 games remade. It’s kinda hard to believe we haven’t had them remade yet, the closest we had was a port to gba. It’s a real shame because the rest of the series seems to forget about them aside from the occasional “it’s a secret to everyone” quote some NPCs in later titles say. Personally I think Zelda 2 would be a better remake. Don’t get me wrong, Zelda 1 is definitely a better game, but I think Zelda 2 has much more remake potential then Zelda 1. I can’t really think of any way to improve Zelda 1 without drastically changing the game to the point where you might as well call it a new game. But there are tons of things you could do to Zelda 2.
The oracle games are also up there, seeing as how they had the exact same art style and engine as LA it would be incredibly easy to do, not to mention that it would make the connectivity between the two so much easier. Unlike the first two games, the oracle games haven’t been ported over yet, so I think we actually have a decent chance at getting them.
