Almost perfect. Nearly every change was for the better. They finally fixed the x-ray hands bug. The only failing point is that the morph ball, your bullets, and your charge beam doesn't actually emit light anymore so you can get kind of lost in the dark.
Artistic direction minor qualms: they used the Trilogy rewrite of the script, the new echo effect in tunnels is maybe a bit too severe, the helmet was retconned to be an energy-projection-thing instead of a physically removable piece to cater to Other M I guess, takes longer to fire a charge shot because the beam-cannon is semi-auto now, and I wouldn't mind if they made each Chozo Ghost fight a one-off instead of a recurring thing, and it would be cool if grabbing an Artifact didn't lock you out of getting that Artifact's lore entry.
That's it, I'm entirely out of complaints. Great job, new Retro.

Did you notice that dogs have an "excited" idle animation for when you're standing close enough to hug them??
Very fun game but wow they really had no idea what they wanted to do with the story. Rescuing the kids totally peters out with no climax, regaining the girlfriend's memory happens so late into the story that you probably won't remember who she even is, only two NPCs in town ever comment on the nearby GIANT MAGICAL DIAMOND BLOCKING OFF THE NATION'S GOVERNMENT, for some reason Link's journey is kept totally secret so the band of heroes trying to help him come across as bumbling idiots who have no idea what they're doing as they storm the castle. Intro is painfully boring, first dungeon features the slowest vine climbing of all time, everything after that point is real neat.
