I just played The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake — and it looks and plays better than I could have ever imagined

My days as a PlayStation fanboy in the mid-to-late ‘90s put me in the crosshairs of Nintendo diehards.

My grade school lunch breaks and recess sessions were filled with passionate debates about Crash Bandicoot vs. Super Mario 64, why the PS1 is the ultimate RPG console while the N64 isn’t and how Nintendo’s 3D console was the king of wrestling games (unlike the PS1).

At one point, I finally abandoned my fanboyish ways and tried the N64 at my best friend’s house. One of the first games I played was The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask.

I know that sounds insane—playing the second N64 adventure in Link’s famed series before the first one, which is regarded as the GOAT, is wild. What’s even crazier is that I didn't play The Ocarina of Time until this year, through the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. After making my way through Hyrule Field and Kakariko Village, I finally realized all the hype about the quintessential action/adventure game was well warranted.

With fresh memories of the original swirling around in my head, I went into the Switch 2 remake of Ocarina of Time with extremely high expectations. And after making my way through three sections of the game, I walked away with even more anticipation for its November release.

The start of my foray into Link’s remade adventure kicked off with me helping Link search for his first sword and shield.

) around Kokiri Forest, I compared the graphical presentation of the remake to the N64 original and even the 3DS version.
