Ori Creator Is Very Unhappy With How Nintendo Handled Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake

Thomas Mahler, creator of the Ori series, expressed disappointment with Nintendo’s handling of the Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake, arguing the studio missed an opportunity to refine level design. Meanwhile, sales data shows the remake launched with roughly 35% more physical copies than Breath of the Wild did in 2017, topping UK charts. Additional developers, including Monolith Soft and Bandai Namco, have confirmed contributions to game design, programming, and graphics, highlighting a collaborative effort behind the project.
