Ocarina of Time comes to Nintendo 3DS :O

[Diathorus]

Did you hear it? The first 3D Zelda game I played is going to be released together with Nintendo's next handheld :O

Video! Clicky!

I hope 3DS won't get too expensive or otherwise I have to stick playing Ocarina of Time OST on a DS Lite
(OST= Original Soundtrack)

W000t...dont have a 3DS and damn, i will not buy it!...but w000t!!

[DacoTaco]

o ffs, do not want
i dont want all these 3D re-releases
i want new games like SSF4 >_>

Nice... but I"m still not convinced on the 3DS given the high price tag.

Make that Majora's Mask instead and then we're talking!

That said, I do agree with Daco. They need to stop rehashing things, start being original. And no, putting Mario in space is not being original. Pikmin was original. Nintendogs(regardless of my total lack of interest) was original. A reliance on established IPs is bad for Nintendo, bad for the industry at large and most of all bad for the consumer.

You could say that for nearly 90% of all FPS games this gen. It's not only a Nintendo problem it's a general problem for the big 3 and it's partly the fault of gamers themselves. You cannot seriously expect multi-million dollar companies to scrap what works for new things that aren't even guaranteed to succeed that's like asking Nintendo to shelve Mario for a while in favour of some new UNKNOWN character or Sony to cancel GT5 because they want to make something new and Microsoft that's like asking them to not release Halo in favour of a fresh new IP (That's not an FPS). Instead the 3 of them would rather play it safe by changing up their established series (Except Microsoft) however then you get the small but ridicoulusly vocal rabid portion of the fanbase that hates any new change because it's "ruining the series" two recent examples would be Metroid Other M and Sonic 4 both of these games where very good yet the amount of rage and frothing because of them would make you think Nintendo and Sega decided to put giant dancing lumberjacks in them singing the ABC as the main character.

Of the big 3 Nintendo has potentially one of the worst fanbases ever nothing Nintendo does is ever good enough yet when Nintendo releases something new for their series the previous installment suddenly becomes the golden standard by which all things are measured (OT to MM: Majora's mask is to hard and the 3 day system sucks, then MM to WW: WW is to kiddy give us a dark 'adult' game like MM, WW to TP: It looks so generic and bland it's an OT rehash give us something original like WW and now TP to SS: ugh kiddy cell shading again give us an ultra realistic gritty 'adult' game like TP). Out of Ninty's big 3 the Zelda fanbase is without a doubt the worst followed by Metroid. Parts of The Zelda fanbase complain about rehashing so much yet when Ninty decides to do something different aka Wind Waker the fanbase goes nuts with Celda fever (Same thing is brewing again for SS), The Metroid fanbase has been relatively muzzled because it appears that Nintendo up until M:OM simply ignored them. The Mario fanbase is interesting IMO the fear of Mario going down Sonic's path has kept them quieter than the other 2. No one can do their best with people constantly raging at them and criticizing them, yes a little criticism is good to stop Nintendo becoming to complacent but there are times when it's simply ridiculous and this gen has a lot of that. If people want new IP's from Nintendo then let them work on it in peace no one forced them to make Pikmin and that was an incredible game when Ninty wants to make a game they know what to do but if parts of the fanbase constantly keep demanding that they release a game that's as good as they remember OT was or SM (Which is impossible because nostalgia essentially makes ever game after them automatically disappointing) then hardly any new IP's will show up. Games like Goldeneye 007 are pretty much guaranteed to do poorly because those rose colored glasses that some of the fanbase have when remembering the N64 Goldeneye are so firmly attached to their head that decapitation could not remove them.

Might get it, since I've only played it once... I only had Majora's Mask for N64 and got in on VC just 3 years ago. It depends if they add something new (heard there were scrapped temples in original version as they ran out of time). The graphic upgrade seems kinda minor...
