This piece of information may come as bad news for those expecting a Majora’s Mask remake. In an interview with 4Gamer, Aonuma stated that the next Zelda remake may not be done until there is new hardware on the market.

We have talked about that from the get-go, but we need to see how well Wind Waker HD does in order to set up our next title. Remakes are popular now, but we don’t know whether or not we will keep doing them from this point forward.

With Ocarina of Time 3D, we wanted a world which could expand using the feel of the 3D effect, that’s why we chose Ocarina of Time. So, it wasn’t just a regular revival, it was more of a rebirth in that case. We don’t know how many years it will be until the next remake, nor do we know what sort of hardware there will be. Perhaps, when there is a new piece of technology, we would look at existing Zelda games and decide if we would like to remake one of them.

There is a lot of demand for several Zelda titles to be remade and released. Majora’s Mask tends to be the most popular request within the Zelda community. Which game would you like to see remade? Let us know in the comments.

    i would like to see the original remade into a format like skyward sword but the original story remade intodays form the enemys the monsters in the dungons and all other aspects

      That would be interesting to see. There are a lot of fan concepts of older games put into modern perspectives. They are always cool to see, but I doubt Nintendo will ever do so.

      • Sycotic Illusion

        cuz that would make real money n they just wanna fuck up the story hence windwaker

        • Noah Glaser

          I agree with the first part, but The Wind Waker is one of the best games in the series so I disagree with the second part there

    if nintendo does not listing to its fans about Majoras Mask Re Make then they are stupid as hell because they could be making millions of dollars with just that little game for the 3DS then waiting for more technology, a smart thing would be making it now and then when that hardware comes out making for it again for that hardware gives the fan a different experience -______________- so stupid really.

    • Noah Glaser

      Agreed. They already have thousands of people who have signed petitions vowing to buy the game. All that stands between them and a huge profit is converting the game over. The engine already exists from OoT 3D so why not?

        I’d rather they made a full remake from the ground up on the wii u than recycle assets from oot3d. the only reason they recycled oot 64 for mm was time constraints.

  • megan

    Definitely majoras mask! And on a bigger console than a hand held. Perhaps a wiiu release only availableon the eshop? Something of that sort. I would also like to see a brand new zelda with a more dark and grown up feel. Something for the older fans that have been there since the beginning. :)

    If nintendo is smart they will do the right thing and fix the gaming the are putting out shity products and that’s that as far as zelda goes Ibelive that they could make the best ever if the francise was sold to sony or micro

    • MikeL

      What shitty products are you referring to? Sony and MS would completely destroy Zelda. I can just picture it: futuristic space-FPS Zelda, multiplayer Zelda with several Links running around meleeing each other in first-person view, Zelda with crappy voice acting etc. It would descend to the quality of Wand of gamelon and Feces of evil.

        LOL feces of evil. FPS Zelda LMAO
