The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake has been a huge success for Nintendo, becoming the fastest-selling Switch 2 game ever, shifting more than 5.2 million copies in four days.

Nintendo announced the sales result this morning in a press release, specifying that the record relates only to Nintendo-published games. But since Nintendo’s games are the most popular Switch 2 games, the fastest-selling-ever title presumably holds.

It’s an incredible result for a game that’s been received with enormous enthusiasm. Christian Donlan awarded The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time five golden stars in Eurogamer’s review, saying: “Alongside great judgement and clever tweaks, this astonishing remake has a proper ace up its sleeve.” We’ve also already seen a jump in US Switch 2 sales because of the game’s release. So much for not launching in November near GTA 6, eh?

This level of success begs the question of whether Nintendo would consider remaking more beloved old Zelda games – or Nintendo games – to replicate this nostalgia-driven effect. Are there other Zelda games that have the pull of Ocarina of Time that haven’t been remade or remastered already in some capacity?

If you’re inspired to pick the game up because of this, or already have it, know that we’ve got a whole proverbial library shelf of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time guides to help you through the game.
