    I know that people speak really highly of A Link Between Worlds, but I found it incredibly boring. I hated not feeling a sense of progression. You can go to any dungeon at any time as long you rent the right items. I really missed finding a new item in a dungeon and the unique puzzles related to that item then using that item to open up more of the world. It felt too open for me. Same reason why I have no interest in the two open world Zelda games (or any other open world game for that matter).

Sure, it had plenty of remakes, just like every other console. Even the PS1 got remakes like Chrono Trigger on it. And by the end of the life of the system a 2DS was less than $80. If that's overpriced then so is every console ever. Sure, the screens could've been better, but the 3D was great on the New 3DS, and if you don't want to explore the games on it even through emulation, then that's your loss. Heck, even had a ton of eshop game franchises exclusive to it. Some later got ports/remasters years down the line like Gunvolt, but others are still there like the Dillon's Rolling Western series. You sound incredibly ignorant when you say it only had rehashes.
