As The Legend of Zelda franchise marks its 40th anniversary, speculation grows around a potential remake of the iconic game Ocarina of Time. Industry insider Nate the Hate has hinted at its production, alongside a confirmed Star Fox remake, adding credibility to the rumors. However, the anticipated remake is likely to be exclusive to the Switch 2, which poses a problem for many gamers. Nintendo's data reveals that while the original Switch sold around 155 million units, only 16 million players upgraded to the Switch 2, meaning tens of millions could miss out on this remake. This trend may continue, with future major titles also potentially skipping the original console. For fans of Ocarina of Time, this situation may prompt them to consider investing in a Switch 2 sooner rather than later to ensure access to upcoming games.
