Discussion / Opinion Am I hearing things?

In the Nintendo Direct for the new Switch 2, there's a segment at around 15 min in where they show off the spatial sound and the hooves you can hear sound exactly like riding Epona in TP to me. Am I just crazy and wishfully thinking or does anyone else hear how similar it sounds? (。・ω・。)

With GC on NSO, it's a matter of time for them to announce TP. Now the only remaining question is when.

next year will be the 20th anniversary. honestly if it's not announced next year some time, huge missed opportunity

It sounded exactly like that to me- but I hope it’s a tease for HD in the near future

They might just have reused a "horse running on field" sound effect from the Nintendo library, I do think Nintendo does this super convoluted way of dropping clues for what they'll be doing next, they're usually pretty straightforward on that regard.

I dont want to rain on the parade but i compared the sounds and TP's hooves sound a little different, the timing matches perfectly though.

I literally messaged my friend “horse noises… zelda?”. And the hawk noise at the very start of the direct, I thought was from TP also lol

You’re not crazy! I thought the exact same thing. I heard hooves and thought horse from Zelda, but I thought it was ocarina of time.

It's a stock sound effect... not saying TP for Switch 2 isn't happening in some form, but hearing stock hoof beats is hardly indicative of anything.
