Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake Price Leaks, and It's Cheaper Than Expected

Nintendo accidentally reveals the price for the Ocarina of Time remake on Switch 2, and it's one of the more affordable exclusives at $60.
Ever dreamed of revisiting Hyrule in stunning detail on your shiny new Switch 2? Well, that dream might be closer than you think—and cheaper than you'd expect. A recent price leak from Nintendo itself suggests that the much-rumored Ocarina of Time remake will set you back just $60. That's right, it's joining the ranks of Yoshi and the Mysterious Book as one of the few Switch 2 exclusives at that price point.
If you've been keeping an eye on next-gen gaming, you know that $70 has become the new standard for big titles. But Nintendo seems to be bucking the trend with this Zelda classic. The leak, which slipped out through an official channel, hints that the remake will be a budget-friendly addition to the Switch 2 library. That's a welcome surprise for fans who've been saving up for the console itself.
The Ocarina of Time remake has been the stuff of legend, with rumors swirling for years. Now, with the price leak, it feels more real than ever. Imagine the iconic Temple of Time, the haunting melodies of the ocarina, and the epic showdown with Ganon—all rendered with modern graphics and perhaps a few new twists. While we don't have a confirmed release date yet, this price point suggests Nintendo is aiming for a broad audience, not just the hardcore collectors.
But why is this such a big deal? Well, for one, it shows Nintendo's strategy might be shifting. While other companies are jacking up prices, Nintendo is keeping things accessible. And for a franchise as beloved as Zelda, that's a smart move. It also makes the Switch 2 more appealing, especially if you're on the fence about upgrading.
Of course, we're still waiting on official confirmation and more details, like gameplay footage or a release date. But the fact that the price has leaked through Nintendo's own channels is a strong signal that an announcement could be just around the corner. Until then, we can only speculate and dream about what this remake will bring.
So, what do you think? Are you excited about a cheaper Ocarina of Time remake, or are you holding out for more info? Will you be picking this up when it drops? Let us know in the comments!
