Nintendo leaker markomaro is being cagey on Twitter, and with no Zelda news to keep us sane, his latest tweet has got people speculating. Let's take a look at the tweet in question:
Right, well, that's not much to go on, is it? That's like us tweeting out a picture of Epona and saying "keep an eye out." If it turns out to be relevant, that's great; if not, we can just delete the tweet and pretend nothing happened.
But let's indulge our conspiracy-loving side and get speculatin' instead.
Oracle remakes?
The most obvious conclusion with two Links is a remake of the underrated Oracle games, Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons. A Link's Awakening-style remake would be quite nice, wouldn't it?
Wind Waker remake... remake
The Wind Waker HD remake was sadly confined to the Wii U, so it would be nice to have it on Switch, too. The art in markomaro's tweet is from Wind Waker, but... why the colours? Who knows.
Two versions of Breath of the Wild 2
Why's it taking them so long to make Breath of the Wild 2? Is it because... there are two versions? One where you play a Red Link, one where you play a Blue Link? That's not what the trailers have been hinting at, but what do we know? Nothing. That's what we know. Except that Link's got a manky arm.
One thing's for certain: We need BOTW2, like, yesterday. We're getting desperate.
What are your theories? Or do you think we need a new hobby? Head to the comments...

Isn't something to do with Four Swords the most obvious speculation?
I hate this fanbase
I'd love an oracles remake with link's awakening (remake) engine
No. It’s not. Probably.
Oh please no, this person isn't very legit.
Just looks like a red pill blue pill analogy.
i never played oracle/ages so thats what im hoping for! but not in the LA remake style, that one can take a flying leap. 🙃👍
@Funneefox
you hate something that cant hate you back? interesting choice.
I want Wind Waker to be fully portable, that's it.
Hell, cancel BotW2 for all I care.
They're going to announce Link for Mario Strikers and the tunic colour depends on the team you're on.
The fact that no-one here has mentioned anything about Triforce Heroes is baffling to me.
trade and battle with friends in Pokémon Red Link and Pokémon Blue Link, coming soon to the Nintendo Switch™ family of systems
Guys, it’s happening. They’re remaking The Legend of Zelda Philip CD-I trilogy.
@CharlieGirl
*trading and battling requires Link cable
@Fizza Eh, most people might have forgotten about it altogether since it didn't really take off. I never played it myself but it was quite the charming little experiment from the videos I watched on it, so I wouldn't mind if that gets ported over or gets a sequel. Would be pretty fun local and online co-op.
@Munchlax sold separately batteries not included
Maybe. Maybe not. But oracle remake should be a no brainer for Nintendo.
Tbh I don’t think it really means anything.
But if it is that great! I just wish they would port wind waker over as I never got too play it back on the Wii U.
This guy is less of an insider than my left sock...
@Munchlax @CharlieGirl Friends required and not included.
If it was something Four Swords related, I'd expect, y'know, four options. So I'd say Ages/Seasons remakes by the studio that did Links Awakening for Switch. It would make sense for them to move on to the other Gameboy Zeldas next.
Or the tweet is nothing.
ages and seasons remake please.
@AG_Awesome @TKundNobody @-wc- @Bl4ckb100d Hmmm…. I wonder if Capcom would have to be involved for Oracle remakes?
@Fizza Tri-force Heroes or Link Between Worlds would be the more likely ports.
@mariomaster96 Can you get your right sock to spill the beans then please?
@-wc- I hate spiders but they probably lack the cognitive ability to have any strong feelings about me.
Four Swords Adventures with online play and om there day flipping one! Would even book the day off work for that! So much love for that game!!!
It is Gameboy NSO (with extra price), because everybody loves NSO.
The name of the service is: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pass Deluxe
@Takoda Personally, I absolutely hated it. Not just because I played it in single player which was an absolutely miserable experience in it of itself, it was also my first ever Zelda game, leaving me to assume that the rest of the series was like it and never touching one again until I forced myself to play Link to the Past and ended up loving it (even getting the Link's Awakening Switch remake as well once I had beat it).
I will admit though: if they make a sequel that gets rid of the sheer tedium and is actually fun, I will most likely buy it. I'm a sucker for 2D Zelda, what can I say.
Or it’s a Matrix reference.
I suppose we will find out in June’s Nintendo Direct video.
@Snatcher @Munchlax @CharlieGirl And don’t even try doing it solo. We guarantee you will breakdown crying within 10 minutes.
@Fizza
Holy moly, yeah, it's a TERRIBLE place to start off for Zelda, since most of the other games aren't at all multiplayer focused. I could just brush it off as an 'alright co-op experiment' because I had the amazing Link between worlds on the 3DS to show me what 2D zelda is all about. I'm glad 2D Zelda had a little redemption arc for you then, I think most of the 2D games are great fun.
The 3D ones are pretty hit or miss for me personally, but that's besides the point.
Markomario is hardly a credible source. Even waddle dee knows is more credible.
Or four swords since they have those colors or twilight princess windwaker bundle
@Takoda I'm getting Skyward Sword HD there next week and I'm very excited. I didn't vibe too much with OoT on NSO personally but SS's focus on story and motion controlled action has me incredibly intrigued as to how it'll all fold out. After the one-two punch of playing Ace Attorney and Pokemon Legends Arceus for the first time over the last few months, anything with a focus on story will more than entice me (I cannot WAIT to voice Groose).
I genuinely hope Triforce Heroes is getting it’s time to shine on Switch. Some of us liked that game and it died out all too soon
Please no more remakes. I would love a NEW 2D-Zelda!
It's likely nothing at all and just another normal Zelda Tweet put out by them. If there was going to be a Remake however I would like to see Four Swords.
@Fizza
A lot of people give SS flack for the motion controls but I was always quite a fan of the idea to move the controller as a sword. It has my favourite dynamic between Link and Zelda too! Hope you'll have a good time with it!
Kate, you completely missed three potential Zelda games to list out...
@Funneefox Let's be fair. Every fan base is terrible! All of them!
Now I question if I should delay playing Oracle of Seasons on my 3DS…
@hackeynut Does that include Kirby’s?
It's what I've been wanting... BotW2 will have an optional Toon Link skin so you make the whole world look like Wind Waker.
Maybe I should apply to work here at Nintendolife, since apparently all it requires it finding a Random Twitter post and making a article about it and calling it a day.
Whatever it is, I’ll take it. I’ll take another Zelda remake like Link’s Awakening in a heartbeat.
Combine red and blue and you get purple. The color of the gamecube and gba. Gba and gamecube confirmed for nso.
I should use social media so I can be featured in articles by doing nothing of importance what so ever too.
I'm sure more nostalgia remake cash grabs are on their way though, don't worry.
Stop giving Markomaro attention the clown is an absolute fraud he has gotten nothing correct other than the Let's Go pokemon games
I highly doubt this tweet means anything since all this guy has done has been post a bunch of predictions call them leaks and ban anyone who points out any incorrect information. There is a video by a YouTuber called GameOver Jesse where he essentially go overs some of his “Leaks”
@Tandy255 I don't think that would be much of a problem for Nintendo
MarkoMaro is not a reliable leaker whatsoever as literally none of his supposedly "leaks" have ever come to fruition.
At least guys like Zippo have gotten some stuff correct even if they were probably lucky guesses.
Finally, we're talking about the markomaro tweet. He just blew the doors of Twitter with this one folks. This is it. DueForce Heros Confirmed.
@QueenKittenWrite no need to be rude! Sometimes, especially at the end of the week, we like to write something more light-hearted. We're people too, you know!
Oracle REMAKES would be amazing. Only Zelda games i haven't played. I bought 1 on 3ds, but it's not in 3d, so i didn't bother. If it's just a port, pass. I've played all of the other older games too many times already to enjoy any ports. I will be all over any remakes on day 1, tho.
The Tweeter has got people talking about their Tweet, they've already gotten everything they need.
@westman98
The one leaker who has no credibility I know of is Laura Kate Dale. I still remember how she claimed Nintendo Switch will have virtual console and Mother 3 will be released on it back in 2017.
Wind Waker please the rest idc about
@abdias I actually would prefer the Oracle games on NSO over remakes.
Is this just whether I'd choose the red or blue tunic from Link's Awakening? Seems like a bait tweet to me.
@Bl4ckb100d They gotta fix that slowdown is all. Never tried it in handheld mode though.
What a bunch of cranky-pants. What harm does this do, whether it’s accurate or not?
I’d be all over Oracle remakes in the LA style. Seems unlikely, but all the same.
Oracle remakes make more sense after the Link's Awakening remake. If that ever does happen, I'll get them...
...
I'll be honest, I never did finish either of those games. lol
@happydeathman yeah hopefully a Four Swords Adventure HD for the Switch, was great on the GameCube.
I still just want ports of the HD GameCube Zeldas... But the Oracle games being remade wouldn't cause me to complain.
That said, this tweet is probably nothing.
That game is a kick. Love it.
Come on Nintendo Life, you guys should know that anyone can just post something on the internet. Idk why you guys keep posting about these people who don't even give any resource about where the information came from. Newmarkomaro doesn't even have the best track recorded when it comes to these things lol.
If you're gonna speculate that bad, why not bring up CD-i Zelda?
For real has this person ever predicted anything?
I don’t follow LoZ leaks so I’m asking for real.
Maybe they're porting the FS games to tide fans over?
Nobody else thinking Oracle games Toon Link style? That's at least what I was getting at. If this is a "riddler" type of hint (considering it's legit, we'll see later), I'm assuming they're using different things to give you a clue. (Red and Blue ((Oracle of Ages/Seasons)), Toon Link, making a choice, etc.)
@nessisonett
touché.
🕵 probably nothing but maybe just maybe...
Ages is superior to Seasons
The colouring of the two Links would indicate Oracle Remakes. Seasons has a red colour and Ages had a blue coloured background on their covers.
Well, more 2D remakes the way they did Link’s Awakening would be fantastic! I didn’t even think of that. The Oracles, Minish Cap, yes please.
Profession?
"Nintendo leaker", thank you very much.
arent the blue and red backgrounds just referring to the old switch joycons, - blue and red?
maybe were getting a multiplayer zelda with each player choosing one joycon
Red and Blue?…..Ocarina of Time lettering was Red, The Master Quest lettering was Blue….toon link…
Windwaker with hard Master Quest mode?
You guys should look up this guy called WaddleDeeKnows. Maybe he knows something!
This definitely might turn out to be fake judging by the guy's track record, but I would love for this to end up being Four Swords again (just cheaper than 60 pls).
It's kinda scary that something so insignificant from not even Nintendo themselves can gain some much interest and so many comments.
If it's just for fun then I suppose it's okay.
Personally, I'd kill for a new Switch game with Wind Waker's style.
When's the last time 'Toon' Link got any love?
wind waker HD would be worse on switch cos no touchscreen item management during gameplay lol
This guy misses constantly. I don't know why you give him publicity, he just makes shots in the dark, his track record is awful.
…The following, contains what I’d like to see, for expanded remakes, of the 2 worst, out of all of the best representations, of the Zelda Multiverse, within our own universe, (Oracle Of Ages/Seasons)…
