I just used an HD texture pack with dolphin and that's how I'll play it. I'm fucked if I'm spending 60 quid on a game that's had minimal additions.
Well, I never played the original. So, definitely going to get this one.
But yeah, if you have the original, and you think additions aren't worth it, no need to get it again. I feel same about certain other remakes.
I read the IGN article that covered the additions. Including more colour, and a character that provides hints and a badge that plays the original soundtrack while suffering performance problems (not acceptable on hardware that's more recent than the gamecube) isn't enough for me to pay 50 quid. And I bought Mario all stars, the Pokemon let's go remake and skyward sword HD. I'm done buying Nintendo remasters that have been up sealed with very little added or improved. And I don't own or played the original I have a rom of the original. I never even had a GameCube.
Well, I am personally anti-piracy. But yeah, I have skipped games which I think aren't worth the price or time.
No one is forcing us to play / buy anything that we don't want to.
