Topic: 3DS Ocarina of Time Remake!

Trust me. I had MM 9 AND 10 in my mind when I wrote that. Those games were just a novekty. Of course they don't have the impact of the original MM.

I`m not replying to your post because it made no sense what-so-ever.

I understand your point, and I've felt the same way. I played Super Metroid and Super Mario RPG for the first time on VC. Two of the best games of all time. But I keep them in context of when they were made. How much more amazing would they have been if I played them when they first came out. This might be a bad example though, because these games are near flawless.

I've honestly felt the same way about your posts. Your arguments don't even relate to what I'm saying.

I never play a game and say "Oh well it's this good because it came out 15 years ago". I play games to have fun. I never feel generous to game because of the fact it came out said number of years ago and recognize the technological limitations. If a games good it's good no matter when it came out. End of story.

But when a game is overrated to the extreme like OoT, then it starts to look to bad to true gamers. I`m a gamer not a fanboy unlike most people on this forum. I admit to facts.

Other than the fact that I`m answering your questions and pointing out facts? Okay.

Peppy is barrel rolling in his grave.

@chrono and z.Bone
C'mon guys. This is a decent forum that isn't filled with people arguing. It's why I come here and read stuff. Calm down and take it easy.

Go play fisticuffs somewhere else.

Ocarina is the best game ever made. If it doesn't hold up as well in your eyes it's because it was a 3D trendsetter. Early 3d games don't hold up quite as well to 2d games usually. But if you'd rather play Spyro or Crash Bandicoot, you are indeed in the minority.

This argument was never my intention. I can't help I get attacked for making a simple post about liking ocarina. I guess I'm way out of line for that.

Edit: I'm sorry guys, for being a contributor in this stupid argument. Any argument based on opinions just turns ad hominem. I don't come here to make enemies.

Chrono, let's just agree to disagree. Arguments based on opinions are pointless.

i grew up playing super metroid. it was by far my favorite game... and i like it better today. it was extremely cutting edge for a 16-bit game but rather than the graphics it was the atmosphere of the the art direction and music that made it great even on day one. good art doesn't age.

high quality art is something all nintendo games have in common, which is why their games tend to hold up well. ocarina of time is no exception, although i think it's monumental influence costs it some of it's appeal; after seeing so many games do the same thing but with slight improvements along the way, it feels a little dated. majora's mask is the worst offender, since without even leaving the n64 gen it's fuller visuals made ocarina look pretty barren, and in my own opinion majora's gameplay has held up better since very few games ever traveled in the same territory. while ocarina's mechanics have been used to death, majora's mask is still fresh in it's own little world.

it's still a very good game, but it's not as perfect as it seemed to be back then. i don't entirely see the point of the arguing over the past few pages, but i think both sides could agree that taking a great game that's aged a little and refreshing it to play better today is a good thing, right? i don't think anyone here honestly believes nintendo is going to screw the remake up, it seems to be the same charming old game, just with a little less of the 'old', so where's the problem?

The fact that a game remains quite popular even after a couple of generations is a good feat. THIS is what makes Ocarina of Time good. It set the standard for a good action-adventure game similar to Goldeneye 007 setting the standard for the shooting genre (on the consoles anyway)

CDi Zelda was better.

All who say No,

Must Die!

^well excuse me, princess.

_{no, i'm not inserting the video.}

That's not the way ta do it!

Well excuuuuuse me, princess!

Ack! Such trash should not be allowed on the discussion of such an awesome game (screw you haters!)

Jk

I have no clue why you guys are putting down OOT! I mean it might not be great as you want it to be, but I read the comic for OOT and it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If your not satisfied with the old one go read the comic until the new one comes out. Plus its not going to be greatest, how many years was that? Let me see ah yes that was in 1998 so look were in 2010 of course the game needs to be better and I'm sure the new OOT will be better, don't worry so much please. And I loved the story I was reading in the Book store, you guys should really read it!

And no one answered me on the OOT comic!

@JadeGirl: again, it takes all kinds of people to make the world go 'round, and not everyone is going to like the same things you do. calm down.
