Wind Waker is a fun one. I think the Wii U remaster is a better way to play it these days, but they didn't port it to the Switch :(

I like that there's an option to play the original version now. My problem with Zelda remasters is that they're not always a great representation of the quality of the game at release. This is obviously not an issue for most people, but when I'm going back and playing Zelda games I missed at release I like to judge them on their original design because that's how I judged every other Zelda game I did play at release.

It is possible that we will also get a remake, but I think if there was a remake we would have gotten that before the NSO version, kinda like Link's Awakening.

Yeah, it's a shame that there's an improved HD version stuck on the Wii U now. This and Twilight HD both. But they've been rumored to be coming to the Switch for ages, so maybe they'll come to Switch || Switch 2 eventually.

Maybe... but you never know with Nintendo. There were rumours of Metroid Prime 2 and 3 remasters too, but it seems more and more unlikely now.
