The Ocarina of Time remake on Switch 2 has players deep in Hyrule, and outlets are racing to keep up. VGC has published Gold Skulltula location guides for the Forest Temple, Lon Lon Ranch, and Kakariko Village and its graveyard, while Polygon broke down how to change the time of day — either by sleeping or by playing the Sun's Song.

Not everything is landing cleanly with longtime fans. Kotaku rounded up four small changes in the remake that players have spotted and aren't thrilled about — some make the game easier, while others are throwing off veterans who know the original by muscle memory.

The surprises apparently extend to Nintendo itself. In an interview with Polygon, series producer Eiji Aonuma admitted that even he is sometimes caught off guard by a new Zelda game's art direction, saying the team was shocked at the remake's visual changes. Coming from the person who has steered the franchise for decades, it's a telling sign of how much latitude the remake's artists were given.

Between the guide demand and the debates over what got tweaked, the remake is dominating the Nintendo conversation this week — the surest sign a classic has landed with a new generation.
