The standard version of the game is gonna be £49.99. It does look good... but, man, this seems expensive for a remake.


£50 :fp:

At least the game collection will probably have it for a reasonable price.

£47.95

I would expect them to lower it at some point.

Since Dampe's shack is replacing the photo shack it sounds like the photography easter eggs might not be in :(

As someone that has only played a few of the 3D Zeldas, do you guys think I will enjoy this?

Seeing as links awakening is amazing and my favourite Zelda, I'd say yes.

Yeah it's still the same dungeon and overworld format of the pre-BotW 3D games so other than the perspective it's quite similar to those.

Hmm, OK. I think I'm just wary of the top down view which I'm not a huge fan of general... but the game does look so appealing.

I can definitely understand why they'd charge full price for this, it's not a normal remake/remaster at all.

I really hope there’s more to this than just a nice looking reskin of a gameboy game. The dungeon building stuff looks pretty throwaway. I’d be all over this if it was a cheaper release but at £50 it’s a hard sell.

The price tag is a little high, but I can't see me not getting this. Ignoring the nostalgia factor it is still the best example of a 2D Zelda in my book so it's worth it on merit!

£50 for a remake of one of the best games ever made is fine by me

I never pay £50 for anything so that's why it feels high personally. It's definitely worth "full price" that's for sure!

Having only played and completed the original last year (and enjoying it, but not loving it), there is no way i can justify spending £50 on this. To be honest its how i feel about all games nowadays as i have Game Pass and it completely knocks the value justification of most games on their arse. The only games i am prepared to put my hand in my pocket for are VR based ones now.
SMM2 may be the exception.
