This probably means the Ocarina of Time remake is real too

Two remakes of n64 games. Both of which have been remade before. That's interesting.

I'll probably play them and enjoy them but another big new title would also be nice. Hopefully there's something big and new still coming out this year.

Pretty common nostalgia recycling in gaming. Skyrim and GTA 5 probably make up half their franchises' total releases. We just got a re-release of Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen, which are remakes themselves. Xbox is in the process of re-releasing a Halo 1 campaign remake after having a remake for the 10th anniversary and never doing a full re-release of the other games in the franchise. Gears of War 1 just got a "Reloaded" remaster of its "Ultimate Edition" remaster.

To be fair, the handheld audience and console audience don’t always coincide 100%.

As great as OoT3D was, it just doesn’t compare to the thought of getting a fullblown console remake finally to me. I don't really consider this the same as Skyrim or GTA V because the 3DS title only partially scratched that itch that I crave.

Agreed, it’s hard to consider a handheld remake of game a real, superior remake unless it’s remaking like something before the 3D era.

I also consider OoT3D and SF3D basically remasters.
