The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening Remake September 20 2019

[Member-115369]

I finished this up a week or two ago. It's still a solid game, if a bit obtuse at times in terms of where to go/what to do next like many older games. I also didn't like the 7th dungeon much as it was a pain with the multiple levels and figuring out where to leave the ball. Art style wasn't my cup of tea and I didn't care for the dungeon making mini-game so I threw it on eBay (figured it would sell fast, but it's still sitting there whereas Dragon Quest 11s sold nearly instantly at the buy it now price).

I’m sure Nintendo will eventually, but no word as of yet. If you buy the Nintendo Switch Online subscription ($20/year) you get access to a library of NES and SNES games (a small amount of games) that include the first 3 Zelda games. If you include those, there are currently 6 Zelda titles on the Switch if you count Hyrule Warriors, and 7 if you count Cadence of Hyrule. I do not count Cadence, in fact I didn’t even like that game (played the demo). Hyrule Warriors is as much as Zelda game as Fire Emblem Warriors is a Fire Emblem game, in which both are just reskins of the Dynasty Warriors games. Yet I’m still going to count that, because it’s fun.

Currently on Switch:

• The Legend of Zelda
• Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
• The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
• The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening
• The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
• Hyrule Warriors

Started this one up last night. Almost to the third dungeon. It's a great little remake, although the need for a switch pro is evident. It's constantly at around 22-25 fps in certain sections.

Have a sealed EU copy from the special edition. I noticed it has Nintendo written around the middle of the cellophane. Are these generally sought after?
