Nintendo’s latest Zelda remake is a smash hit. World News

Nintendo’s latest Zelda remake is a smash hit.

More than 5.2 million copies of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time were sold in the first four days following its launch on November 5th. That’s the blockbuster hit the Switch 2 console has been waiting for, and a thematically appropriate throwback to the boost that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild gave to the original Switch.

A link to the past.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time launches later this week, and in the lead-up Nintendo has put out the first half of a lengthy developer Q&A, covering everything from what changed gameplay-wise, to the new visual style, which was inspired by puppet shows. As art director Aya Shida explains: > Neither puppet shows nor practical effects films reproduce reality exactly as it is. Even so, both create a convincing sense that the characters truly exist within their respective fantasy worlds. We also felt that there was some overlap between these forms of expression and the distinctive nostalgia evoked by the original game.

It’s dangerous to sleep in! Take this.

I love the idea of waking up to a The Legend of Zelda themed alarm clock, but I’m less in love with the idea of silencing an alarm by handling a tiny pointed replica of the Master Sword when I’m still half asleep. The alarm clock, and a collection of other Zelda-themed items, will be available as part of an upcoming Banpresto merch lottery in Japan.
