Nintendo Shares Ocarina Of Time Switch 2 Design Sketches
Ink's awakening. The latest Ask the Developer interviews are positively packed with interesting tidbits about the making of Ocarina of Time on Switch 2. One such story is all about the game's reimagined visuals, which Nintendo was even kind enough to share some initial sketches of. According to Art Director Aya Shida, the team was consciously fighting a battle between making the game more realistic with the improved power of the Switch 2, and retaining the spirit of the original — a somewhat dark world, filled with weird characters.

Nintendo Wanted To Remake Ocarina Of Time To "Trigger New Insights" For Future Titles
Out with the old, in with the Aonuma. "Hang on, why is Nintendo remaking Ocarina of Time again?" It's a natural question that might have occurred to you in the last few months, and in the latest Ask the Developer interview, Series Producer Eiji Aonuma had the answer.
