Possibility of A Link to the Past in 3D?

After the success of Ocarina of Time on the 3DS earlier this year, fans are now interested in seeing other older games in the Zelda series ported as well. Naturally everyone assumed Majora’s Mask would be the very next game in line for a port but there just might be another Zelda game that might be adapted instead. During an interview with Eiji Aonuma, it was mentioned that Miyamoto was interested in possibly remaking A Link to the Past for the 3DS.

During the interview we asked Aonuma if there was any chance that he would ever consider making another 2D Zelda game. While he hasn’t been looking into it personally, he confirmed that Miyamoto has. “Well actually, even Mr. Miyamoto himself has been talking recently about going back to the 2D Zelda games,” he said, “in particular the ones that were designed with multiple levels to the world like A Link to the Past, and taking those 2D graphics and recreating them in 3D so that you could get a sense for the depth of those worlds. That’s something that might be interesting to do, so I would say there might be a possibility of something like that in the future.”

Although it is not a real confirmation that A Link to the Past is coming to 3DS, I am intrigued that they are at least interested in the idea. It is still my favorite Zelda game in the series and I would love to see it get the 3DS treatment like Ocarina of Time. Plus any little additions they feel like including to it would be welcome. The Four Swords extra they added to the GBA port was an interesting addition years ago and I would not mind something like that appearing again. Plus there is going back to all those memorable locations in the Light and Dark worlds in 3D. Battling Agahnim in 3D, drawing the Master Sword for the first time in 3D, and that first glimpse of the Pyramid of Power in 3D. Just the thought of it has me wanting to play this right now.

So what do you think? Do you want to see A Link to the Past on 3DS? Think the transition might work? Let us know in the comments below.
