Dave Ask any gamer what the best game ever is, and it's highly likely it will be one of Halo, Mario 64. Half-Life, WoW or Ocarina of Time. Ask anyone who knows their games over the age of 25, and the proportion of Ocarina votes goes up - it was a tit...
It's one of the greatest games of all time, in all it's glory; graphical polish enhances without changing too much; brilliant, lengthy adventure, with plenty of side quests and replayable modes; 3D really works well, and is useful without being intrusive; controls work well, and tweaks have stopped previous gripes...
Gyroscopic aiming doesn't work with 3D switched on; doesn't add an awful lot to the original adventure; lack of speech and simplistic puzzles remind you its a thirteen year old game...

The first point to be clear on regarding this game is that it a new Zelda title, but a 3DS remake of the Nintendo 64 adventure Ocarina of Time. At heart, it remains essentially the same game, with protagonist Link in a quest to stop a deadly evil des...
New 3D visuals are impressive; touchscreen inventory is a big plus...
Gyroscopic aiming controls don't mix well with the new 3D graphics.
While it remains essentially the same game as the original 1998 version, the redrawn 3D graphics are smartly implemented, by and large, and the touchscreen inventory makes gameplay that much smoother. Whether veterans of the original will feel it's wor...

Talk about big boots to fill. And yet, this remake manages to impress on a whole new level...
Well measured remake of a classic, good use of 3DS technology, graphical updates are welcome.
Graphics aren’t cutting edge, you might develop RSI from playing this too much.

Released in 1998, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (OoT) was for many a defining moment. Released on Nintendo's two year old N64 platform, the game took the cartridge format to new heights, offering a vast adventure and compelling, coming-of-age na...

0emailZelda: Ocarina of Time 3D is a remake of the original game which was released on the N64 in 1998. Many consider the N64 version to be one of the best games of all time. This game was the first in the Zelda series to be a 3D polygon world and it w...
For the past month I have ranted on about how much I dislike the Nintendo 3DS as I felt there were never really any good games apart from Super Street Fighter 4, which I have been playing on the HD consoles for the past two years anyway.Well thankfully...

The problem with remastered classics is that they so rarely live up to their status, or indeed your own memories. What was once revolutionary now seems antiquated. Visuals that once evoked awe now evoke nothing more than pity. Developers face a choice...

Save system, 3D can be exhausting...
There's something a bit sad about the fact that the first must-have game on the 3DS is an update of a 12-year-old classic. Those of us who worked our way through the original version will find Ocarina of Time 3DS every bit as brilliant as we remember...

I've heard any number of arguments over the years that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the best game in Nintendo's long-running Zelda series, but I've never really bought into them. I've always been more taken with Link to the Past and Link's A...
The remake of the N64 classic offers a huge world with elaborate dungeons, while high-resolution textures improve the graphics quite a bit. However the save system remains archaic and Master Quest isn't available from the start...

When Nintendo announced that its venerable Ocarina Of Time would be one of the early showcase games for its 3DS you could hear the groans coming from a mile off.We're pretty sure it's not meant to do that...While no one was doubting the brilliance of t...
It may well be 13 years old, but you certainly wouldn’t think it. Masterfully adapted and featuring some truly exceptional 3D, it’s the 3DS’s best game and a magnificent showcase for adapting past classics. 9.0/10Print this pageComments (0)Share this p...

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D is Nintendo’s attempt to bolster a Nintendo 3DS software line-up seemingly running out of steam, but does a 13 year old N64 adventure really have what it takes to impress modern players?Grab your sword and sh...
Amazing gameplay, epic quest, great visuals...
An entirely new adventure would have been nice...
Even if you’re played the original game to death, there’s no doubt whatsoever that it’s well worth experiencing again on the 3DS. This is truly classic stuff and simply never grows old – from the moment the camera pans around Kokiri Forest during the g...

The epic tales of Link and Zelda are ones which have entranced the gaming world for decades, culminating in the franchise becoming as popular and well-known as Mario (or even more so). Now Link is back, and this time remastered in beautiful 3D effects...
There's a very good reason why the original Ocarina of Time is the highest rated game on metacritic, basking in an average rating of 99%. The game features a spectacular and heart warming story, filled with many amazing adventures, insane boss battles...

Video games generally don’t age well. That’s the nature of a medium that’s driven by technology. But there are always exceptions, and Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (ESRB: Everyone 10+) is one of them.One of the most beloved games ever...
It's a faithful recreation of the timeless Nintendo64 classic. Innovations like the realistic passage of time remain as engaging now as they were 13 years ago. Most changes, such as the new touchscreen inventory, serve only to modernize the interface.
It’s nearly impossible to use the gyroscopepowered camera in 3D mode without altering screen orientation and losing the stereoscopic sweet spot.
Just as enchanting as it was in 1998, the 3DS version of this beloved classic is far and away the best game yet released for Nintendo's fledgling handheld system.But there are changes. The most noticeable come in the form of adaptations made to accomm...

So it's fitting that Nintendo has approached this re-release with all the care of an attentive museum curator, making changes with the lightest of touches. The sharp-edged polygons of the Nintendo 64 original have been smoothed and cleaned while preservin...
