Nintendo games have made a massive impact across the globe as the Japanese giant has offered various iconic IPs. But there’s something special about the Zelda series. Thanks to 2017’s Breath of the Wild, this franchise has swayed gamers with its highly compelling design and a vast open-world universe. Not to mention the memorable characters as well.

Everyone knows that the next big entry in this Nintendo Switch exclusive saga will be Tears of the Kingdom. Fans finally witnessed the first official trailer of the 2023 game last month during the Direct livestream. But now, a hardcore Zelda lover has reimagined the awaited title as an N64 offering!

Before the main trailer’s launch in September, The Legend of Zelda sequel was mostly going without a name. Following a long wait, fans got to witness the actual title with Tears of the Kingdom. Speaking of the gameplay and other aspects of the game, then there are many details the developing team is yet to introduce extensively.

Meanwhile, fans of the Nintendo Switch can try out several other games for the handheld console in the meantime. While they wait for Zelda 2’s launch on May 12, 2023, they can enjoy upcoming offerings like Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope and Bayonetta 3. They are set to make their way soon. Moreover, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is also arriving in the next month itself.
