I'm glad I'm not the only one who never thought to use Deku Link.
Not sure if joking. Swimming is so simple in this game. Easier than it was in the N64.
Less fun in the ocean, doe
I agree with this so much. The swimming in this game is awful.

Yeah, it's pretty bad in the last area of the final dungeon especially.

I forgot how many times I tried it with the Bunny Hood. I threw boxes at the switch, thinking the weight would help (they didn't, stupid flimsy boxes). Then the Zora jump hit me like a bolt of lightning, and I forgot the mines were there so I botched my first attempt.
Less fun in general.
The Scarecrow's Song is whatever you make it. I usually just do LRLRLRLR.

If I remember correctly the deku bean seller was originally only accessible by going through the gardens. Kinda lame they made the shortcut.
First time I fought Majora on the old N64 I did it with just regular Link. It's still my personal favourite and best final boss bottle in the entire series when you do it that way (first time).
Yeah, do that. The boss fight is one of my favourites, Fierce Diety Link kinda ruins it.
Yeah, I beat it the first time on N64 with regular Link. Fierce Diety Link made the fight so anti-climatic and boring. No real sense of accomplishment when you can just spam one button and win either. Will give it a shot as regular Link tomorrow.
I friggin' love the new Bombers' Notebook. The rumors in particular are greatthey don't tell you exactly what to do, and yet build up a really nice checklist of things to check into that one might've otherwise missed/not done. I'm pretty sure my 100% run on 3D will be at least marginally more complete than any of my past "100%" runs because of this.

It is? Oh god, I just gave it the most convoluted input.
...what shortcut? There's an easier way to get to him?

It's always good when a game gives you a good reward for 100%ing (well, kinda, all masks isn't 100%), and say a big fuck you to the boss
I think if you play without guides you will always beat majora's mask without FD link the first time anyway, given how the indications for all the masks in the game are

You have to use at least two notes but yeah that's it
I usually do LAAAAAAA haha

Seems you can just take the right lilly pad path right to him now. No need for the stealth section.
Correct. East of the Deku Palace, in the same location as the patch of soft soil, there's a hole hidden in the grass which leads directly to the Bean Seller's cave. Found it by accident.
Well that's just dumb. Why is the garden still even there?

To fly over in the Deku Pads.
There is that heart piece there, too. But it seems like I did this the stupid way the first time. Ah well, it's good for later bean purchases, so it's fine by me.
I had a dream about MM the other night. It was after doing the Stone Tower Temple and seeing these guys...
I dreamed that there was an enemy that was basically a Zora head, wearing the expression link wears when trasnforming into a Zora, with four bony, semi-spiderlike legs, and a longer bony fish tail. They were extremely fast and would crawl at you, and called Pseudozoras. Tatl's description of them was "It's a Pseudozora, watch out, that bony fin is dangerous."
On another note, the fight against the Stone Tower Temple boss was awesome, spoilers for that:

Straight up punching shit was AWESOME! It was funny though as I was afraid to go in the boss room because I was like "What the fuck man, where's the giant's mask, did I miss it?" and spent 20 minutes searching for rooms I might of missed, thinking I misremembered where it was in the original. Then I thought about it and thought "Well there's no way you would be able to get into the boss room without it, so I said "fuck it" and went in there, then I understood everything.
I only have one fish left to catch before I have all 24 fish.
But then I'll have nothing left to do in this game. :-\
I just want to keep playing...

To fly over, and for the heart piece.
I don't really mind the change - the logic for it was probably "We already have a stealth section with the pirate fortress - do we really need another?"
Of course you can forego the stealth in the fortress too if you have the right mask

Stayed up to 5 in the morning to finish everything last night. While the time travel stuff wasn't as interconnected and in-depth as I would have liked I still enjoyed the game quite a bit. As far as the 3D Zelda games goes it's right in the middle for me: SS > TP > MM > WW > OoT with TP being my favorite despite SS being the better game overall. As far as the entire Zelda series goes I'd probably put it at 8 or 9.
Now I just need to get around to playing Phantom Hourglass.

are you sure you're not drunk? there's no update here (EU)
I've finally done it, 26 hours later according to the log, I've beat Majora. What a sensational game! I found the final boss pretty tricky and I actually had to attempt it twice, which is quite annoying cos obviously when you die you gotta go back to stock up on fairies blah blah, it kinda ruins the pace of the game for me. If you're going to restart the boss from the beginning, it should automatically start you off with how many fairies you went in there with.
I finished it with fourteen heart pieces, and I still have about six masks to find. Not sure if I'll bother though as I've never really been a completionist (except for Mario games), and some of the side missions I've left behind seem pretty dull according to some online guides I've read.
I realise I'm offending all you completionists out there, deal with it!

Damn it I swear there was one, I thought it was real odd because the download failed. I should've taken a photo.
It's gone now indeed (EU too).

I love this, it came out well.Made this in pottery:
The nose is a little big, and I'm going to add a touch of red around the eyes and add in some glass beads, but I'm happy it turned out pretty freaky haha.

They should have whipped up one nightmare fuel take on every main species, that deku scrub tree is like a fine base to complete the trio with alongside this dream, assuming I'm not alone in finding Nejirons kinda creepy, just popping up in that one stretch of Ikana, like you've trespassed on the wrong land and JUST LOOK AT THEM!
Nejiron can be BorkBork's next pottery project.

I think my list might be the exact reverse of yours haha
After replaying WW for WiiU I just don't get why that game gets so much love. Its good, but no where near some other Zelda releases. Especially the dungeon designs...
As for MM, I'm replaying it for the first time on my 3DS since it originally came out on N64, and either my tastes have changed or this remake changes just enough things, but its close to being the top 3D Zelda game for me. Still have a little ways to go, but it might overtake OoT as my favorite.
There's a good chance it's not really anything important. Just minor bug fixes or something.
I think it just depends on what you want out of a Zelda game, I know there are people out there who love the Zelda series but don't care for the dungeon aspect of the games. It's true that Wind Waker's dungeons are weak but I love its atmosphere, artstyle and exploration so much that I consider it to be one of my favorites.
That said I also love Twlight Princess especially for its dungeons, I just really appreciate Wind Waker's qualities.
Personally I'd say I'm really adaptable when it comes to Zelda. I love the series for it's "adventure feeling" if anything but even then I'd probably enjoy a Zelda game as long as it excels in one aspect or another. I really love it when they go experimental!
I don't think that's how most people roll when it comes to the series though.

Most likely it's a framerate and/or crash fix, nothing more.
I'd be stoked if there's a frame rate fix. It's really my only minor qualm about the release.

Great atmosphere, great art, exploration and I really got into the story.
That is my issue with MM at the moment though. I have no idea why I am walking around Termina besides collecting masks.
There's a moon falling and you're trying to stop it by freeing the giants
