Ocarina Of Time is the greatest game of all time. I would love a remake.

However, I would settle for the 3DS version in HD on Switch (or Switch 2). That version is superior in every way but 100% faithful.

The 3ds version loses a ton of creepy intense atmosphere from the original, its definitely not worth what is gained.

Sorry man, but Ruto's endgame. She and Link are still engaged in the only timeline where Link's still even around. And oh yeah, thanks to MM he can become a zora now and mate with her. Totally canon.

OoT and Windwaker are both better than BotW and TotK.

Hrrmmmm I think OoT is a bit overrated in the Zelda timeline, it's definitely up there but I think a lot of it's nostalgia.

Wind Waker on the other hand, is timeless, I would still buy it again on Switch despite finishing it on Wii U and GameCube. It's probably the most BoTW / ToTK in its world where you constantly explore and find new things to do while having the traditional dungeon / item upgrade path of the originals.

 

[Azelover]

OoT is still my favorite Zelda. Just imagine OoT with Wii U demo graphics. Off the chain!

 

[Innoculis]

As someone who played OoT at launch, it was amazing. Going back to it now it doesn't hold up well, so many advancements made that it feels old and janky. Gimme A new OoT in BotW engine, no auto jumping and what not, I'd be interested.

OoT and Windwaker are both better than BotW and TotK.

That's not a fair comparison, it's either OoT and MM vs BotW and TotK. Wind waker have no business being in that comparison.

I disagree. Ocarina of Time 3D was updated more faithfully to the original concept art of the N64 classic. The darkness came in to hide the shortcomings of that system. I can see the atmosphere changed more with the Majoras Mask 3D release because that was meant to be more creepy but I prefer the 3DS versions top to bottom.

That vision is far worse on 3ds as Ocarina of Time N64 has one of the best atmospheres in gaming. It oozes a mysteriously dangerous scary world that isnt there to hold your hand, getting rid of that vibe is incredibly foolish, and for what a generic looking fantasy lighthearted vibe lol. Also the music is inferior as well.

If you want the same atmosphere playing the 3DS version, just wear some sunglasses as you play, itll give you that look you are looking for . I say that in jest of course.
The music is actually better. They added an orchestrated song as well.

Ill tell you what, The 3D screen on the 3DS required brighter visuals to compensate for its dim look so they took that into account when remastering the game. If that wasn't necessary, I could see them going for a darker palette.

I still play Ocarina of Time every few years.

 

[Fraludio]

For some reason I thought the OoT reverse engineering was complete and I could rock it at high fps and upscaled textures, but apparently that isn't the case?

It is complete. I'm playing it on my modded switch at 1080p 60 fps.
