Find the PC project, the Zelda item, or the Resident Evil 0 tool. The table distinguishes publisher claims from community documentation.
Answers that have a source
Is the Ocarina of Time remake on PC? Nintendo has not published a PC edition. Hookshot is a separate native recompilation and it needs your own Switch 2 copy. The project readme documents Hookshot; the absence of a Nintendo PC listing is not counted as an independent source. Why can't I delete the Hookshot in Resident Evil 0? The Resident Evil wiki says it is a key item that occupies two inventory slots, and that it can be dropped for good only after the cable car is switched on, with no on-screen prompt. That is one source.
| Topic | Answer | Status |
|---|---|---|
| What is the PC project? | An independent recompilation requiring a user-supplied Switch 2 copy | 1 publisher source |
| When can the RE0 tool be discarded? | After the cable-car sequence described by the item wiki | 1 community source |
Questions left open
Does Ocarina of Time hint that you can hookshot the scarecrow? Zelda Wiki's Scarecrow's Song page, and the second wiki checked the same day, do not describe such a hint. I am not going to invent a line of dialogue. Why use the bow when the Hookshot exists? No source compares them directly. The items do different things — the bow aims freely and spends arrows, the Hookshot only grabs specific targets — and that mechanical fact is not an answer to the 'why'. Do you need the Hookshot for the cuccos? Anju's cucco game is widely played without it, and I still have not found a page that says so in those words, so the cell stays empty.
Questions
Is Ocarina of Time's remake on PC?
There is no official PC version. Hookshot recompiles a Switch 2 copy you supply. The Hookshot publisher readme is the source for the recompilation and game-file requirement.
Why can't I delete the Hookshot in Resident Evil 0?
One source, the Resident Evil wiki: it is a two-slot key item, and it can be discarded only after the cable car starts. The game does not prompt you.
Does the game hint at hookshotting the scarecrow?
No sourced hint was found on the Scarecrow's Song pages checked 11 Nov 2026. The answer stays open.
