## Summary

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick praised Nintendo’s Ocarina of Time remake after being asked whether it competes with Grand Theft Auto 6. The games’ November releases have been framed as a contest, but Zelnick said Nintendo should be proud of its title, which was reported as 2026’s highest-rated game.

He said entertainment competes with everything because people have many ways to spend their time, yet with nothing if there is nothing appealing to watch or play. Unlike food, entertainment is something people want rather than need, he said, so companies must make the best entertainment they can to attract audiences. The article also reports that the remake sold 5.2 million copies in four days, setting a Nintendo record for Switch 2.
