    The difference is Nintendo actually adds new features/reinvents the game in a novel way when they do it.

  I think video game remakes will be a thing long after millenials are gone, just like movie remakes. And I bet most of them will be disappointing, with the occasional faithful or even surpassing remake, just like with movies.

  It would be cool to chart the distance in time between the original video game and all remakes. It’d be cool to see which games get evergreen remakes, and which go through unpopular periods before a renaissance. People will always remake the classics, but I bet most remakes will go in a cyclic fashion of cashing in on middle-aged nostalgia.

    I specifically meant OoT. Just like you dont see Gilligan’s Isle remakes anymore.

      Oh, I see what you mean. I wonder when the last OoT remake will be. They just remade Nosferatu 100 years later. I could see it happening.

        Eh spin-offs but not remakes. Buttflix had something about a Hawaii remake or something but I dont think it ever saw light.
