I find it quite humble that mr. Aonuma even decided to go to such a low level event that is the Game Awards. They should be thanking him for showing up.
He's introduction in Ocarina was good, yes, but the real impression he made for me was the fact that, after defeating the king of evil and escaping the crumbling tower, he was still alive underneath the rubble only to transform into the beast we know as Ganon. I remember the fight being on such a scale that my TV couldn't show the entirety that he's beast form was. The feeling of "this is far from over" always stuck with me and I don't believe any other boss battle lived up to this one.
Song of Healing, but that one doesn't count for this list. I choose Saria's Sing, mainly because my friends occasionally whistle this song while a few of them don't even know it's from Zelda.
My first ever game was Super Mario Bros. After experiencing the joy that is gaming it was always remaining this incredible memory. It saddens me to say that with each new 2D iteration after the NES I never had that same level of joy. Although Nintendo is putting back in the effort with Wonder, I can't help but look at all the New Super Marios they steam rolled of the conveyor belt. This one might still be a well polished game, but the shine has faded.
I just wish to relive the golden are which was called the GameCube. Since it's Nintendo, it would cost them more than 50 years to re-release al their amazing titles on their current and next generation consoles.
Just seeing the image of this article almost made me jump out of my seat thinking it was news about a Prime 2 and/or 3 remaster. I feel betrayed... Anyway, I think I'll give Control on Xbox a chance over the weekend.
Sometimes I feel this series never should have entered the 3D realm for the mainline games. Although I thought Colosseum was pretty fun, you could feel it didn't live up to the scope of the portable games. When I read about the performance of these new game I just miss the nineties/early 2000s more and more ...
I will wait for a discount, I liked the first one, but the second game I couldn't get into. Recently Metroid Prime Remastered was on sale for €20 over here, so I am hoping Pikmin will be be the same in a few months.
While GX is definitely my favourite I also played Maximum Velocity until my D-pad almost fell off. Seeing Maximum Velocity on the bottom of this list I can only confirm that a bad F-Zero game just doesn't exist.
It looks allright, but in saddens me that the first game isn't available on Switch. I would love to see Nintendo focus more on re-releasing/remastering more GameCube games.
Most of it looks kinda... eh... but it probably deserves more credit because it does try to look and sound like a Broken Sword game. Let's say this game is Mediocre at best.
Big whoop... as long as it plays fine, who cares? I own this game on GameCube but sadly it isn't really my cup of tea. I consider buying this remake just for the sake of sale number so Nintendo gets a hint of the fact that I want more GameCube remakes on Switch. Now where are Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD!?
Tears of the Kingdom was pretty much one big DLC pack for Breath of the Wild. There, I said it. Don't get me wrong, it is a good game, but it's generally just more of the same. It's time for a new Zelda.
I bought this game both on X360, Xbox One and on Switch just because it's such a darn good platformer. Especially with a couple of friends it's a good laugh. It's time for a sequel Ubisoft, make it happen.
Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD for Switch. That's all I need to survive until the next big thing: Metroid Prime 4. Maybe throw in a teaser for Metroid Prime 2 and 3 for the end of the year and I'll stop complaining for a long time.
I believe this can still be called this a good port. It's probably still not worth the current price, but at least you are getting a solid game. I would have considered buying it if they shaved of 10 euros, but I expect that it won't be long before that happends.
I already despise fan reaction videos, but putting "fan reactions" in your Anniversary video is probably the worst thing I ever had to listen to... Anyway, No Man's Sky, from what I hear and see it's a pretty good game. Sadly I have started playing to game too late. With so much content nowadays I find it really hard to get into.
It looks fantastic and it probably plays very good, but my brain always has issues with playing "spiritual successors". I don't know why, but I am going to pass this one. Maybe once it has gone on sale I'll give it a go.
Will Arkham Knight even run decently on Switch? Considering Asylum and City were Xbox360/ps3 games I can imagine the Switch running those two, but Arkham Knight?
Is a "lazy" port really a bad thing, though? I mean if the game runs good and the price is decent what really more do you need? I get that for most people the game has a steep price and we haven't seen a performance review yet, but game development costs time and money. You can always wait for the price to drop. I am just saying: more classics on modern hardware is always a plus.

Re: Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition Listed On The Microsoft Store
"Improved graphics, controls, and audio". Improved controls, if they fixed that terrible camera this might be worth a buy.

Re: Talking Point: Does Zelda: Ocarina Of Time Need A Full Remake?
Sure, I'd play it. But I am actually still waiting for that Zelda 3D All Stars Collection...
Re: Nintendo Confirms New Smash Bros. Ultimate Switch OLED Bundle For Black Friday

Re: Reminder: The New Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom amiibo Are Now Available
I didn't need these, so naturally I bought them both.
Re: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Has Already Been Rated For Switch

Re: Random: Fan-Made Nintendo Logo Timeline Is A Superb Look At The Past
I love the fact that it barely changed the last 40 (maybe 50) years. Nintendo's logo is the proof that you shouldn't fix something that isn't broken.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's DLC Physical Release In Japan Includes A Game Card
I expected this to show up eventually instead of a Mario Kart 9, but not in an incomplete state. What a waste.

Re: Where To Pre-Order Mario vs. Donkey Kong On Switch
I don't blame you, @N0SEGaming as a matter of fact I am happy for you, but I'd rather had Wind Waker HD/Twilight Princess HD.

Who asked for this remake? I sure didn't...

Re: Talking Point: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom DLC - What Would You Have Liked To See?
Actual dungeons with unlockable items such as the Hookshot. The super power nature of Link's new abilities just doesn't do it for me...
Re: New Interview With Zelda Boss Suggests There Are No Plans For TOTK DLC
Tears of the Kingdom was pretty much one big DLC pack for Breath of the Wild. There, I said it. Don't get me wrong, it is a good game, but it's generally just more of the same. It's time for a new Zelda.

Re: Turok 3: Shadow Of Oblivion Remaster Announced For Switch
If this one runs at 30 fps on Switch, everybody will lose their minds.
Re: Gamescom 2023 Opening Night Live: Everything You Need To Know - Date, Time, Where To Stream
Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD for Switch. That's all I need to survive until the next big thing: Metroid Prime 4. Maybe throw in a teaser for Metroid Prime 2 and 3 for the end of the year and I'll stop complaining for a long time.
