Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3DS vs N64 Video comparison

Planet3DS.de presents a side by side video comparison of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 64.

What has changed?

[portablegaming]

I it only me or does the 3DS look more cheerful?

[Miroque]

Yes, the colors seem brighter.

[LolololRumz]

I actually kind of prefer the darker feel to the N64 version (Probably because I loved the dark feel to Twilight Princess) but the 3DS version is looking really nice!

[AlanarWindblade]

Eveything is better than the happy, happy joy style Nintendo is following with the new Wii Zelda...

[johnthe5th]

That's what I thought too, but you have to realize that the brighter colors are necessary for the 3D to work. Imagine trying to see the old Forest Temple in 3D...

[Daverball]

I kinda feel like they went towards the style of Skyward Sword with the colors.

[Nibbler]

The should have gone more in the direction of A Link to the Past...

[PygmelionHunter]

Unless you mean 16-bit graphics, Skyward Sword already looks like a 3D version of A Link To The Past, except for Link's hair, lol.

As for OoT 3D, Im digging the new look, it's way more faithful to the original artwork of the game, the only thing i wish is that you were able to tone down the colors just a little bit to make it look more like the original game.

[HeretoSpeakTheTruth]

after Ocarina of Time 3DS comes out the next game we cant wait for is Skyward Sword

[Kamikaze135]

I honestly think this is the next game I'm buying besides iOS games. I'm bored with my consoles :(

[sickbird]

sicko.

[portablegaming]

Sure if you can't play online :D

[Sorano]

Yes, Wii can ;)

[Close_Second]

Definite visual improvements but I would expect that given the game was released in 98.

[SuperStrokey1123]

is there a youtube version so i dont need to go to a translated page?

[Sorano]

Yes: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[SuperStrokey1123]

Thanks!

[DA_SHREDDER]

these games aren't that big. I dont see why they couldn't include Majora's Mask on the same cartridge? I would buy it day one forsure.

[TheEatingChampagne]

So that you'll be able to download it from the eShop or buy the new "Majora's Mask 3D edition" next year

[kevnb]

I hope they improve the god awful framerste the original had, 20 fps bugs the hell out of me.

[Rrobba]

Nintendo already said it's up to 30fps now.

And yea, the improvements are nice, can't wait to get this!

[GunofthePatriots]

so far, i kinda like the n64 color better. it seems darker and serious.
3ds version seems too......cheerful (for lack of a better word).

[Masterchef2007]

I was expecting a bigger improvement given the hardware of the 3DS. But it looks better than the orginal which is the point of this comparison.

[dmixwell]

N64 version looks better for a few reasons
1: it captured the feel of the morning with it's on the money morning atmosphere, it really looks like this outside when the sun is rising up in my city.
2: the slow frame rate helps .Odd but true. it looks as if link rides in slow motion when the moon is going down
3: the target camera has better angles and moves more fluidly
4:The sun burning LOZ icon that appears as link is riding adds to the scene

although i believe the 3DS version will be superior to the n64 version in all other areas (it better be), the n64 intro has the edge.

[CDbiggen]

I hope they bring both Majora's Mask and Wind Waker to 3DS after OOT.

[AWBrawler]

Yes! Wind Waker was my fave

[chickeninabasket]

For the love of God, why did they get rid of the moon?

[AWBrawler]

skull kid rented it so that he could deck it out with that evil face before they make Majora's Mask 3D LOL

[gk07]

looks good to me : ) im sold , cant wait to hear the soundtrack anybody heard it . wish they would do majora's mask .
