Nate Bihldorff, Senior Vice President of Product Development and Publishing at Nintendo, stated that both new games and remakes have their place in Nintendo's lineup and are equally important. This statement has been interpreted as a sign that Nintendo may continue to remake classic titles following The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Star Fox.
Bihldorff stated that different intellectual properties each have their own fanbases. While new entries in a series are exciting, revisiting titles with special significance like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time can also be satisfying. However, he did not announce the next remake, nor did he reveal its development timeline or release platform.
Star Fox, released in 2026, is another full remake of a Nintendo 64 game, with reported sales exceeding one million copies by September of that year. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake has just launched and received positive reviews.
As for potential remake candidates like Super Mario 64, these are currently just speculation by the article's author and not confirmed projects by Nintendo. Whether Nintendo will continue to push forward with classic game remakes, and what the next title will be, remains unannounced at this stage.
