Speaking with Nintendo Power, Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword game director Eiji Aonuma gave Majora’s Mask fans (and 3DS Owners) hope of a bit more Zelda on the handheld.
Will we get a Majora’s Mask remake next?
Would you like to play such a remake?
Well, Yes!
It’s been 13 years since Ocarina of Time was originally released, and one of the big things that we made this remake possible was that there was an outpour of emotions from people who said they would like to see this game done. We said we could do it in 3D, so we did. I think certainly if there was a similar output of emotion and clamor from fans for a remake of Majora’s Mask, it wouldn’t be an utter impossibility.
Thinking on it now, having a handheld Majora’s Mask where you could kind of just set things down on your own time – close it, set it aside and come back to it later – might be a game play element some fans will actually take to and might really appreciate. Especially considering how you really had to rush through the original game, in a sense.
Not a confirmation, but if any man is in a position to get this idea planted in the right heads and to get it done, it’s him. Given the strong sales of Ocarina of Time and the warm critical reception of it, I wouldn’t be surprised to see it. Would you?
