How would you buy Zelda Twilight Princess and Windwaker Remasters on Switch?

I'd do the same thing I do with every first party release: buy it when it's on sale for $30 or $40.

MSRP is mostly irrelevant to me.

Also, your choices leave a lot of gaps.

I added “not buying” option.
What other options do you want to see

[Reed Rothchild | 9,526]

I'm just saying there are other options.  $60 individual release, $40 duo, etc.

It doesn't really matter, just semantics.  I'll vote $40 individual because that's what we would see, and that's the price point I'd jump at (possibly via a sale).

I don't know if I ever actually finished either one of these games on GC. I'd love me some Wind Wakey HD on switch but it would make the Wii U community hopping mad.

Man, fuck those guys

I would love an HD combo pack on switch. It would be a very quick buy. If they were separate releases, maybe not as much.

I do want the HD ones for Wii U, but the prices are out of range for me unless I get lucky and find them out in the wild. I'll be sticking with my GameCube copies in the meantime.

I limit myself pretty hard in terms of buying remasters these days, and these would be among those which I'd give a pass. I own the originals and would simply rather play them in their original format on a CRT.

Do Wii U people have so few exclusives that they hold a freaking rerelease as a precious exclusive, lmao

[DefaultGen | 5,405]

Also I wouldn't buy them at any price. Me electing not spend $40-60 will surely reverse the trend of giant companies lazily rereleasing ports of old games to non-discerning masses.

[RegularGuyGamer | 2,013]

I just wouldn't buy them. I have no personal connection to the GameCube era and I played what I had to of Twilight Princess on the Wii.

That and I can't imagine a way they would re re release Wind Waker to distinguish it from the Wii U.

For people like me that don't own a Wii U and also don't plan on buying the GameCube versions at market value, I'll take them on Switch any way I can get them.

Yes, absolutely.

I see what you did there

How about putting The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition on Switch?

Fantastic title was made available only twice on a rather limited window on DS/3DS.
