  "account": "SNL brought attention to the upcoming release of GTA 6 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake with a Weekend Update skit featuring video game characters Jason Duval and Link. The sketch, starring Marcello Hernández as Jason and Mikey Day as Link, saw the two icons arguing about which game is superior. The six-minute skit was packed with references to car theft, RPGs, and puzzle-solving in Hyrule. However, gaming fans were not overly impressed by the skit, with many finding the jokes stale and repetitive.",
