Aonuma Says He Hears the Fans Who Want a Majora’s Mask Remake

Obviously, most of you have heard of the requests for Majora’s Mask 3D; for years now, thousands of Zelda fans have wanted a remake of the classic Nintendo 64 title, to the point where it’s even inspired Operation Moonfall on this site, along with many other formal organizations and petitions for the game.

There’s also this amazing fan-made video showcasing what the game would look like on the Wii U, which drove the entire Zelda fanbase nuts a few years ago.

Well, in an interview with Kotaku, Aonuma has recently said that he hears and understands the claims for the game, and that he’s doing his best.

Schreier: I have to ask… I asked readers what questions I should ask you, and the number one question was that you’ve hinted so many times about a new Majora’s Mask or a Majora’s Mask remake for the 3DS—will we ever see that?

Aonuma: I do know that fans want to see Majora’s Mask. I’ve heard that voice, it’s very, very strong, and I’m always listening, is what I would say.

Schreier: I think people reacted to the teaser in A Link Between Worlds, the mask in the house. People saw that and thought it was a hint for the future, so that’s why people are excited about that.

Aonuma: Maybe I was toying with them a little. (laughter) I’m doing everything I can. I hear the voices of the fans. There are so many out there. It’s very loud, and just to acknowledge the fact that the need, the want is out there, I put that in there.

It’s not very much—we’ve known for a long time that Aonuma’s a massive troll—but it’s nice to hear that he listens to the fans and understands the demands. It’s hardly a confirmation that the game will happen, but you never know.
