    Hopefully we’ll get the true version of Tales of Symphonia! The proper 60 FPS GameCube version, and not the crappy 30 FPS ports with missing lines of dialogue.

    The minute Burnout and/or it’s sequels become playable, I will spend any amount of money to play them

    WW, F-zero GX, SCII were all amazing games. Really looking forward to playing them again 20 years later

    It is a little bit funny that the most exciting news about Switch 2 is that GameCube is coming to it.

    I can finally play Wind Waker!

    F-Zero GX apparently has a campaign so won’t mind giving it a try too.

      Wind Waker is a fun one. I think the Wii U remaster is a better way to play it these days, but they didn’t port it to the Switch :(

        It is possible that we will also get a remake, but I think if there was a remake we would have gotten that before the NSO version, kinda like Link’s Awakening.

          Yeah, it’s a shame that there’s an improved HD version stuck on the Wii U now. This and Twilight HD both. But they’ve been rumored to be coming to the Switch for ages, so maybe they’ll come to Switch || Switch 2 eventually.

            Maybe… but you never know with Nintendo. There were rumours of Metroid Prime 2 and 3 remasters too, but it seems more and more unlikely now.

        I like that there’s an option to play the original version now. My problem with Zelda remasters is that they’re not always a great representation of the quality of the game at release. This is obviously not an issue for most people, but when I’m going back and playing Zelda games I missed at release I like to judge them on their original design because that’s how I judged every other Zelda game I did play at release.

    Never played Wind Waker so that would be nice. Given the insane new prices i wonder if they adjust their online prices as well … because then i would lose interest quickly …

    Was really hoping for ww / tp remasters. Instead we’re just getting the old versions instead lol
