Robin Williams and his daughter Zelda appear in this wonderful ad for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D for Nintendo 3DS. I'm looking forward to playing through this game again.
 
This is the game that is going to sell the 3DS. This has been anticipated forever, and it looks like a good compromise between faithful port and updated. I heard that this is using the Master Sword layouts though, and not the original OoT ones. I didn't find Master Sword to be very fun, even as a huge fan of OoT. Hopefully it's the original dungeons, or perhaps includes both (which would be awesome).
 
I also heard there were some adjustments made to the Water Temple. I don't know if that's true or not and if it was, I don't know what the adjustments were. Every OoT player has the same nightmarish story about that goddamn temple. I used to think I was the only one.

OoT is still my favorite game of all time and having got to play this at PAX East, the update is gorgeous. It looks like an almost entirely new game. I've yet to get a 3DS, but I will eventually and this will be the first game I pick up for it.

As far as I know, both versions of the game are included.
I'm seriously considering buying a 3DS just for this game. I still own the gold cart N64 version that I purchased in November 1998 and the version that was included on the promo collectors disc for the Gamecube.

If they included both versions of the game, that would be awesome. If Master Quest was the only version, I probably wouldn't get it, but having both is actually more preferable to me than just the original.

I think many people would consider buying a 3DS just for this game. I'm not at all interested in consoles or the 3DS, but I would consider getting one just for this game.
I still have the N64 cart (every copy was gold here), and the Master Quest version that came with Wind Waker, but I still love this game enough to want to play even a slightly different new version. It's still perhaps my favourite video game of all time.
 
Bah, why did they have to remake the crappy Zelda? Come on, where's the 3D Majora's Mask?

Absolutely fantastic commercial though. Getting Robin Williams was a stroke of genius with the sight of him alone getting your nostalgia pumped.

Because OoT is universally considered the best Zelda game, and because you're the first person in the history of ever to call it crappy. You can bet it is going to be the highest selling game on the console. Meanwhile, Majora's Mask was definitely more divisive, and therefore not as good a business choice.
Personally Majora's Mask is my least liked Zelda game. The whole 3 days thing really kills the game for me, and a lot of it just felt like reused scraps from OoT.
 
I'd be pretty disappointed in my father if he'd named me after a video game character.

Yep, if I ever buy a 3DS it'll be because of this game. What is 3D like on the 3DS? Does it look like a hologram from Star Wars, or when you look at the screen it looks like 3D? Does it make you carsick if you catch it from the corner of your eye? :ack:
 
This commercial was cute if only because Zelda decided to personally respond to NeoGAF and 4chan after it aired.

I'll have to be content in being the second to call it crappy then. It's crappy. Never touched Majora's Mask. Best Zelda game is A Link to the Past, seems like no contest to me.
 
Even if you don't like the game for whatever reason, it is objectively wrong to call it "crappy" and you're only doing so to be contrary.

Could you say that again in English, please?
 
Not buying it (don't need a portable game console, and already have the original OoT game plus the dual version for Gamecube), but still sounds cool. Really was the best game of the series IMO. I'd go with Twilight Princess as the 2nd best, thought that was a good successor to OoT.
