I love that the team recognizes they're polishing a gem rather than fixing something broken. Wada's approach gives me confidence they'll enhance the experience without losing that cozy Inaba charm we fell in love with.
Honestly, it's pretty bold to remake a game that already had a definitive edition like Golden. Really hoping they nail that balance between nostalgia and innovation without overcomplicating the magic.
