LoZ: MM? YES!!
I found out today that there's going to be a 3DS remake of Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask! I am so excited about this! I know that the fans have wanted it for ages. As for me... I actually can't remember if I ever finished playing the N64 version. It's possible that I found it too difficult at the time (I'm terrible at playing games, always have been). But it's a really interesting game, and I am totally looking forward to buying it. Amazon gives the release date as late June 2015, which is shortly before my birthday. Perfect.
Of course, I haven't played the 3DS of Ocarina of Time yet, and I should probably do that before the MM release. And I should... finish the other 3DS games I have on the go. If not Pokemon X, then at least Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. I've been stalled on that one for ages. I was hoping to fall in love with it, because some of my friends really enjoy that series, but while it's an okay "playing on the transit" distraction, I just... don't love it. I'm not sure why. I don't get that spark from it in the same way that I do with some (but not all) of the LoZ games. And VH as of late. Oh, well, at least now I get some of the references and jokes.
For a while there, I was kind of stalled out on LoZ. I think it's because, while A Link Between Worlds wowed me and reminded me of everything that I love about Legend of Zelda, the game I played directly after that was Phantom Hourglass, which just... didn't give me what I was looking for. It wasn't the visuals - I saw a lot of people complaining about that aspect of the Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass/Spirit Tracks set of games, but that didn't bother me. I think the issue was that there were so many alterations to the setting that in the end it didn't feel quite like the Hyrule I was familiar with, so it fell flat for me. Even though I own Spirit Tracks, I haven't even taken it out of the packaging yet. But maybe I'll get around to that eventually.
Though one thing in Phantom Hourglass's favour - it did give me Linebeck. I can't help but love that guy. I think I just have a thing for greedy but secretly kind characters. He grows on you like mold.
Anyway. Definitely looking forward to the Majora's Mask re-release, though it will be a while before it happens. And maybe me getting a refreshed interest in LoZ will be enough for me to get my ass in gear and finish that ALBW fic that I started earlier this year.
