In the long tradition of beloved things being remade anew, Nintendo found itself saying more than it intended — not through a stage announcement, but through the quiet honesty of unguarded code. A description buried in the scaffolding of the company's own website confirmed what a generation of players had hoped: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is being rebuilt from the ground up for Switch 2, a full reimagining rather than a polished memory. The accidental disclosure, surfaced by fans in June 2026, closed the gap between what Nintendo chose to show and what it had already prepared to say.
