- Have Ganondorf strike back a few times. Seriously, Lon Lon Ranch is practically next to his castle, yet he does not do anything when Link brings Talon back ? Ganondorf does not even try to invade Kakariko ? Is he just sitting in his castle all day, waiting for Link to come and kick his ass ?

- Zora's Domain must of course unfreeze, and because of that there needs to be an unfrozen version of the Ice Cavern, too.

- Hyrule Castle Town should feel more "alive". Make it bigger, NPCs should interact with each other like in Majoras Mask. After Ganondorf attacks Hyrule Castle, there should at least be Gerudo Guards instead of soldiers. I realise that the Castle Town has to be kept intact when you play Child Link, but one point that bugs me in OoT is that everyone states the castle was attacked by Gerudo, yet the soldiers are all still there and life in the Castle Town is completly unaffected by the attack.

- The sidequest for Biggorons sword is really weird in OoT, with the strange monster in the Lost Woods and the old hag in the Potion shop. There is also this strange Kokiri girl who is laughing her ass off because she thinks you will turn into a stalfos. There was no way to understand what is going on in the original OoT, in the remake they should make it understandable.

- Ocarina songs and the music in general were an important part of the game and should NOT change, just be redone in high quality.

- The Light Temple/the sacred realm would be interesting to see, but its not a must have.

- Riding Epona as a child, however, is a must have. Its annyoing to run around in Hyrule Field without her. Also, she should be able to enter all the areas she could not in the original (Kokiri Village, Kakariko, Hyrule Castle Town etc...).

- There should be more sidequests to make the world of Hyrule feel more alive. Also, if possible, NPCs should not repeating their one single line for eternity after you have finished an area. I realise that this is difficult, though.

- Dungeon design could change drastically, but the Overworld should not be too different from the original.

- More necessary time-travel. You should have to do more things in the past in order to proceed with Adult Link.

- The number of Gold skultulas should be significantly less.

- The mask trading should be expanded, and the mask should have effects like in MM. (Not the same effects, of course).

All except the horse as a child.

&

That pyramid... Make it a temple!
Sheikah back story & temple
Fighting Gohma inside & Outside the tree... Just seems likea good idea... Climbing on the Deku tree etc. Maybe a Larvae as an Adult in the forest?
An ice temple?
Vaati?

Okay, I realise that getting Epona only as an adult is a plotpoint of the game, but I am just lazy

(btw Matt 20 1, thanks for the friend invitation

What about a remake of both the NES games in one DS game? That couldn't be too hard.

I want a remake of Twiligt Princess.. I mean something like OoT master quest. Twilight Princess was just way too easy for me. Twilight Princess: Master Quest . I think it would be a good idea.
