As is Nintendo’s custom this console generation, there’s a $10 price difference between physical and digital copies of the game, with physical copies being more expensive. The MSRP for the game is $59.99 for digital copies and $69.99 for physical copies.
For other recent Switch 2 exclusive, including Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave and Switch Sports Resort, both Amazon and Walmart have cut $10 off the price of the physical version ahead of launch. Then, once the game is out, the price goes back up. Either or both retailers may end up tweaking their prices before the game comes out.
What Is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake?
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake is a full remake of the 1998 Nintendo 64 original game.
This isn’t the first time Ocarina has been remade. A 3D version of the game was released for Nintendo 3DS in 2011. It had improved graphics and a number of quality of life improvements over the original. The original N64 version of Ocarina of Time is also available on Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack.
There have also been a couple of Legend of Zelda LEGO sets, including The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time – The Final Battle, which actually contains spoilers for the end of this game, so tread carefully if you haven’t played it yet.
