The Goombas in Link's Awakening remake are grinning in the newest footage, no longer angry like the reveal trailer

Grew up with gameboy up until NDS so this game is really charming and I want it. Maybe someday I'll own a switch.

They have no expectation to run in to Mario, and they're probably not even at war with the Mushroom Kingdom at that time.

Do you really need to make a separate thread for every detail you notice in this trailer?

...i just thought people might find it interesting

I wanted a grim dark remake with those Goombas from the Bob Hopskins movie

Mario Maker 2 needs to step up its game

Is Link's Awakening pretty much Captain Rainbow in terms of metaness?

I'm not sure meta is the right word for it. There's definitely quite a few cameos, but IIRC they aren't really super called attention to, at least in a "hey these are actually from a different game" sort of way. They're really more for enhancing the surreal atmosphere the game is going for.

Captain Rainbow does feature a cameo of Crazy Tracy from Link's Awakening...

The fact that they've gone out of their way to make accurate three dimensional interpretations of the original, completely off model sprite warms my heart.

Isn't that the whole point of a faithful remake?
