Yesterday’s Nintendo Direct wasn’t too thrilling, but it had a couple of standout moments, including the fulfillment of one video game wish I’ve had for a while. I was so excited, my intended Nintendo Direct news article focused on that particular announcement.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, originally a Nintendo 64 game, is being remade for the 3DS. Yes! I’ve wanted to play this one for a long time. A darker Zelda game with a creepy tone… it sounds perfect.
I have a confession to make, Zelda fans. Wind Waker was my first introduction to the series. I didn’t play the much-acclaimed Ocarina of Time until Ocarina of Time 3D came out. And then, when I heard people discussing the possibility of Nintendo giving Majora’s Mask similar treatment…
Well, I held off on buying it on the Virtual Console in case a 3D remake was announced… and now it has!
I can’t wait. The trailer looks creepy, it sounds like just the sort of game I’ll love, and even if some people wish Nintendo was working on new games instead of this remake, Majora’s Mask 3D is one title I know is going into my games library. Just need to wait until pre-orders open up…
But you know what makes me almost more excited than getting to play Majora’s Mask at last? Ocarina of Time 3D came out in 2011, and that’s when people started talking about this possibility. Three years passed with no news. When this year’s E3 ended with no Majora’s Mask 3D, I started to give up. I still tossed out the possibility when anticipating the Nintendo Direct, but I didn’t really believe it.
And it happened.
You know what ELSE happened in 2011? Gyakuten Kenji 2 (Ace Attorney Investigations 2) was released in Japan, with no plans to bring it to the West. I still campaign for its localization, but after this long, it’s hard not to give up hope…
But hey, if it could happen for Zelda, maybe it can happen for Ace Attorney.
The Nintendo Direct was also missing one other thing I wanted to hear–Fatal Frame V localization. I really thought they might announce it. It’s a perfect fit for the Wii U, and survival horror fans are dying to play this game! Still, its chances are better than AAI2’s…
Anyway, Majora’s Mask 3D, Spring 2015! It’s on my list. Is it on yours?
No.
By the way, you started in a bad place. The Zelda series hit its pinnacle at Wind Waker.
Majora’s Mask is nowhere close.
…Wait, so starting with the best game is bad? XD
