 Talking about crazy rumors for Nintendo heading into 2024 is probably one of my favorite things to do as a content creator at this point because look, Nintendo is going to be a little quiet when it comes to news unless they somehow get hacked like some people at Sony have that now led to us knowing all these things about Wolverine and all these various games and internal emails about how worried Sony is about Microsoft. Look, that's all fine and Danny all that stuff's out there if you're interested. Yeah, that's right. Sony actually had a major hack happen but what I want to focus on obviously is what's happening with Nintendo in 2024 and today we have this interesting rumor coming from a place that is definitely worth talking about. This isn't Zippo. This isn't 4chan. This isn't this random person who sent an email in or something. This is somebody who does have a track record and I think is worth paying attention to and what's crazy is it's my favorite kind of rumor because it's one that allows us to speculate in a meaningful way rather than just directly tell us this thing is happening period and then we just talk about our opinions on that thing. We actually have a legitimate reason to speculate on this. So without further ado let's go ahead and jump in because this information is coming from none other than Nash Weedle. Now who is Nash Weedle? If you're unaware he is a leaker on X who leaked a bunch of stuff regarding Metroid Dread back in the day. Now some people tried to disprove that he was the originating source on all the Metroid Dread stuff over the years. Unfortunately for them everything that they post as evidence was posted a week after what Nash Weedle said meaning that as far as we're aware he is the closest person to being the actual source of all the Metroid Dread leaks back in the day and he knew a lot he knew the name of the game he knew what it was going to be about he knew some of the key mechanics he knew a lot so he clearly seemed to have access to the game or at least knew someone who knew what was going on with the game beyond that he's had a number of smaller leaks the Metroid Dread stuff the big stuff he's had a number of smaller leaks over the years but most of those leaks have just sort of been in line with what other people like Nathan Hayton stuff they put out there or Pioro it hasn't really been anything that else that we can like look at as he's the originating source he's just adding context and more information to already existing stuff from other leakers until now he's putting something out there that I find really really fun on X and it's because of the way he did it if you guys remember and again we're still going over context here Dr. Serkin Toto who put out a couple of tweets one back in I think it was 2021 and another one this year both of which are now since deleted that said things like ZR 2023 and all of these tweets ended up referencing games right or one of them was Zelda 2 2022 which again that was referencing Breath of the Wild 2 being a 2022 announcement and a week later Nintendo announced that it was going to be a 2022 game yes we all know it came out in 2023 but that was the information at the time in 2021 and then this year it was Zelda Reveal 2023 that's what ZR 2023 meant and that was the movie reveal right so he's been right twice but this isn't from him before we get into speculation quick we are on a road to 150 thousand subscribers and you know what if you go ahead and subscribe to the channel I'm hearing that eggplants will start to rain down on all of our heads we bring this up because the new leak from Nash Weedle for next year he decided to structure it like Dr. Serkin Toto and here's what it says CZR 2024 oh man so here's the thing that's what the actual leak is now it's all speculation on what this actually means and I was I wanted to get feedback from the community on this so we during our live stream last night I did take this to the live chat and I said hey let's come up with some ideas on what this could possibly mean now one idea is that it's controller related right for some reason ZR is literally the ZR button on your controller and C is referencing a scroll wheel of some type even though scroll wheel isn't spelled with the letter C whatever maybe there's an internal document reference that calls it C or they're calling it a C wheel because maybe it's not a full circle maybe it just goes one way and then goes back the other I don't really know either way they're referencing the whole Sakurai scroll wheel thing and that's cool that that could be it and we've had rumors around that before but more likely than not it's probably not a reference to that given that he's referencing Dr. Serkin Toto's way of leaking things which was for Zelda so what kind of Zelda things could it be well here are some of the things that came up with a collaborative Zelda remake or remaster so what would that mean well it could be anything right it could be an Ocarina of Time remake or remaster that the Zelda team has collaborated say with Bandai Namco or something right that would be a multiple team effort to remaster a game and that's pretty exciting and again that could be anything that could be any of the Zelda games right another one another one is a classic Zelda remaster or remake so this could be like Zelda one Zelda two of them to the past technically could still be Ocarina of Time it's considered a classic at this point I know crazy so I don't know that's another way some people have taken CZR 2024 another really interesting one would be what if it's more literal a Capcom Zelda remake or remaster now we start to get more specific that could be the Minish Cap or that could be the Oracle games Oracle seasons and Oracle of Ages and those have had rumors around them before and Grezzo who hasn't released a Zelda remaster remake or anything since 2019 I shouldn't say anything they have released other games that could be what they're working on that could be a big game for 2024 there's other things though a collection of Zelda remasters or remakes so now you're getting into the hey the Wind Waker to other Princess HD twin pack sort of thing so that brings that back into the fold and that's always really exciting but there's another one that I think is even more interesting and I'm really glad I took this to the chat last night because all of these things I probably got to came up with my own but I wasn't even thinking about this cast Zelda reveal what does that mean the cast for the Zelda movie could be revealed next year and honestly that one is absolutely brilliant and I gotta thank our live chat for that one that one was look it would be very well that could just be what it is we're gonna get the Zelda movie cast reveal next year that is crazy but of course that's not all the possibilities there's other ones as a joke someone put out there a cdi Zelda remake or remaster gee it sure is boring around here my boy this piece is what all true warriors strive for I just wonder what Gannon's up to yeah I think we can all agree that's probably not what it is some some suggested maybe it's a cell shaded Zelda remake or remaster we're taking an old Zelda game and cell shading it and bringing it back again can't dismiss that possibility cell shading is definitely something Nintendo has used several times throughout Zelda history also here's an interesting one and I don't think this is the case what about a Christmas Zelda game reveal for 2024 I again I challenged when this one came up to tell me a time Nintendo's ever unveiled any game on Christmas no one could find any reveal on Christmas there's reveals before Christmas there's reveal shortly after Christmas no actual reveals on Christmas so I don't know I kind of doubt that one but still this sort of leaves all it open for discussion and that's what I love about what Nashville did here is instead of just giving us like one thing that it is this and like Zippo threw out there and again Zippo is who he is but he threw out there that Ocarina of Time was happening that's very specific and it's fun to sit there and focus on that one individual game how you know reliable it is how much we'd like it how you know what could they do with it well what's cool is when the world of possibilities has opened up and he's basically just saying something Zelda if not the movie cast then a remake or remaster is happening in 2024 so what happens then well it could be a movie if it's the cast reveal for the Zelda movie which I don't think would shock people next year cool I'm good with that but I tend to think he's teasing a game I could be wrong on this this is just because Nashville's never actually teased movie stuff before so I don't know that he really has inside knowledge on what's happening with the movies at Sony and Nintendo and Illumination he's never really had he never had Mario movie teases in the past either so I'm kind of thinking that all of his teases have always been game related so I'm leaning towards this being a Zelda remake or remaster for next year and then you just look at all the possibilities and really anything's on the table especially if the C means collaborative Zelda remaster that could be literally anything that could be tears of the freaking kingdom for all we know being remastered by a third-party company and it's collaborative because the Zelda team made it I don't know you guys I'm just I'm really excited by what this could be I like the idea of it being a Capcom Zelda remake or remaster I think Minish Cap or the Oracle games coming back would be utterly insane trust Grezzo to do that entire look what Grezzo did with Link's Awakening it was insanely awesome I'd like to see them do that again with these games do an Unreal Engine 4 or 5 like they did before and just have fun I I'm just excited as a fan I already expect there to be some sort of Zelda something next year but now a remake or remaster is going to be floating on my mind heading into 2024 and I am okay with that as always folks hyper responsibly and we'll catch you in the next video
