A digital listing for a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time briefly appeared on the Australian Nintendo Store, potentially revealing its price ahead of an expected Nintendo Direct broadcast. The listing, which has since been removed, showed the game priced at AUD $94.95.
This price point places the Ocarina of Time remake at the lower end of Nintendo Switch 2 software releases. For comparison, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is priced at AUD $59.99 (approximately $39.99 USD / £34.99 GBP), while premium titles such as Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza retail for higher amounts. Nintendo has previously employed a tiered pricing strategy for its Switch 2 games, with titles like Star Fox launching at AUD $49.99 earlier this year. Additionally, the company has seen a trend where physical copies of newer games are often more expensive than their digital counterparts.
The pricing of the Ocarina of Time remake suggests it may not be positioned as a full-scale, new-generation title akin to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom, which launched at AUD $79.99 for their Nintendo Switch 2 versions. Further details are anticipated during today's dedicated Legend of Zelda Nintendo Direct presentation.
