Nad Teresa writes, "The Zelda franchise is one of the most popular gaming franchises ever and has been around as long as gaming itself. It was the first big fantasy action-adventure game series of its kind and [we] have to say as a huge fan of The Legend of Zelda series and having played all the games in the series including the newest one “Skyward Sword” for Nintendo Wii, [our] personal favourite is “Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time” and [we] love this game to no end. It’s a classic game in Nintendo history being released in 1998 for the Nintendo 64. It is Also The 5th game in The Legend of Zelda series as well as the first with 3D graphics making it a classic to most if not all gamers out there."
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
The score seems kinda low.
Zelda was just like Final Fantasy in this case. Both series started out on older consoles, NES/SNES. We grew to absolutely adore them at the time, then when both of these series finally made the leap to 3D, it was a huge deal. Generally speaking, both Ocarina of Time and FF7 are the most loved in their respective series.
It's quite simple as to why that is. Consider how big a leap it is to go from 2D sprites into a full 3D realm for both of these games. That kind of transition has only happened once in gaming history. Yes, there's a huge gap between graphics in PS1 to PS3, or N64 to Wii U. However, they're still in that same realm of 3D rendering. No matter how much graphics improve, we won't be seeing another significant leap of that kind again. (Until possibly virtual reality lol).
I wouldn't mind an Ocarina Of Time II...haha. :)

Parts of this review make my brain hurt.
So...the "from a girl gamer" wasn't part of the original title.
I was beginning to wonder if the author titled all of her articles "from a girl gamer," because I really can't see how your opinion on OoT would change depending on your gender. It's a good thing the poster helpfully pointed that out. Because it really matters!
