Zelda producer says fans could drive Majora’s Mask remake possibility.
Legend of Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma says it's down to the fans whether a remake of Majora's Mask is created.
Speaking to Nintendo Power Aonuma said:
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.
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.
Aunoma also mentioned that a handheld version of the game may complement it's use of continually passing time as a game mechanic, and that now portable Zelda games can stand alongside their older, console counterparts:
The ability to deliver that kind of experience is now available for handhelds as well; it’s not just in the domain of consoles anymore.
However, if that’s the case and we can deliver what people previously considered a console experience, to a handheld, it makes me think, ‘Well, what can we do to make those home-console Zeldas that much more engrossing and appropriate for being in your room and spending the time to really dive deep in the game?’ So, that’s a theme that I’m certainly going to carry though into future development.
