Nintendo’s former marketing executive made some concerning comments publicly on his personal social platform, pointing out that there is obvious anxiety within Nintendo about the progress of the “Zelda: Ocarina of Time” remake project. He believes that there is a considerable gap between the company’s senior management’s expectations for this project and the actual progress, and this anxiety has affected the operating rhythm of the entire team.
The description “collapse” is really not an exaggeration here!
According to the former executive, Nintendo’s culture has always been driven by surprise, and when a product is already highly anticipated, any delays or changes will be magnified. The “Star Fox” whistleblower’s remarks have been proven to be accurate before. This time he chose to stand up again, causing many fans to take his remarks seriously.
The topic of the remake of “Ocarina of Time” has been going on among the player community for a long time.
Players have been waiting for more than ten years for a remake that was hailed as “one of the most important works in gaming history” in the N64 era. Every time a rumor comes up, the community starts discussing it. And this revelation happened to happen at the time when the “Star Fox” Switch 2 remake has been officially confirmed, making this prediction even more credible.
Things are different this time with Star Fox
The “Star Fox” revelations were verified to be basically true at the time, so the public’s attention to the former executive’s remarks increased significantly. But Ocarina of Time has a larger fan base and higher expectations, and if this rumor doesn’t come true, the backlash may be even more intense.
