A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

With all secret shells, hearts containers and 0 deaths. Was a fun experience but a challenge I will not do again.

Was intending on playing links awakening again. But I happened to do so since I just got a switch lite and was trying out some games on it. Then I got sucked back in.

Such a classic game

I tried the original a few months back and it was just way too hard if there are a few days between game sessions, too oldschooly obscure. I wish I played this as a kid.

I love the original and it still inches this one out. With that said, try the original again. Since if you like it and want more you have the oracle games to play

I like the art style of the original better. Should I still play the remake for QoL improvements?

I personally prefer DX. The GB printer bonus gives the game such a personality which is sadly missing.

If it was the same price I’d say pick the one you wanna play, but since it’s more expensive it’s not doing anything which makes it worth more.

At MSRP it’s price is crazy
