Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma says he is nervous about Ocarina of Time remake

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma says he is nervous about how players will respond to the upcoming Ocarina of Time remake.

The game is a new version of the 1998 Nintendo 64 classic and is due out on Nintendo Switch 2 on November 5.

The original is widely regarded as one of the greatest games of all time, and it was Aonuma’s first project with Nintendo designer Shigeru Miyamoto.

Some developers on the remake never played the original, which Aonuma says helped bring a fresh perspective to the project.

The remake has also been described as more different from the original than longtime players might expect.

The challenge is updating a much-loved classic while meeting the expectations of its fans.

Players will get their first chance to judge the remake when it launches.

It is thanks to these young people, who thought about how best to adapt the game and how to make it fun to play with the controller in hand, that this remake was born.
