Link's Awakening Remake

[Wolf]

I don't think we should think of the new remixes as "better". Maybe "creative", "clever", or "does the original justice" would be more fitting?

Well in some aspects you can see better=creative=clever.

Look, Wolf,

Take this with a grain of salt, but I see remakes as representations of their own time. Link's Awakening on the Game Boy was made under the limitations of its hardware, and pushed the boundaries of what could be put on a cartridge. Now, 26 years later, they're bringing back the same core game, but with graphics and sounds that don't have to be compressed, shrunk, or simplified. If you were comparing one game that you would consider better than the other, you would analyze the originality of the gameplay concepts, music, characters etc. that stood out from other games of the era. This remake isn't being made to render the original obsolete; it's being redone with respect to those who worked on the first version, updating graphics, music and other niceties to allow a newer generation of young gamers to enjoy it.

Is anything that I'm saying making sense here?

That's how they handled the other remakes, too. Though pretty much every other remake was just a graphical update a few technological tweaks, so this seems like it's already a major upgrade.

I agree. Just because it's a remake for a modern console doesn't mean it can't be better or worse. Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen are better than Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow. Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! are worse.

"Better" and "worse" are opinions.

This should go without saying. Thank you, Olimar.
