I need that CD. :O

Anyone in the Chicago/general Midwest area gotten theirs yet?

I'm starting to get orried Nintendo's got something screwed up with my address, I ordered one of those pouches from Club Nintendo on June 3th and it's shipped but I haven't gotten it yet. :/

More on-topic: I finished the original game last week, and I'm now using Master Quest as a side game to play in between other games. I'm really loving the new dungeon layouts. They almost feel completely new, which helps to downplay the flipping for me.

I kind of wish I could play just the dungeons though, and skip the overworld stuff. It would be nice if Hyrule Field and the other areas were redone as well.

in chicago, got an email earlier today from nintendo stating that my cd has shipped and it'll be here in 4-10 days.

on topic, ive completed OoT 100% and now im working on master quest 100%.

Chicagoan here. I got an e-mail about 5 days ago saying it shipped. And a friend of mine who lives on the East coast already got his.

Just be patient.

Are some of these Big poes still pretty hard to catch?I remember one Poe appearing near Gerudo Valley entrance and then suddenly disappearing after one or two seconds every time I find it.

Yes some are still very annoying, floating into walls and disappearing straight away unless you get the angle of approach just right.

My mortal enemy of OoT, i'll pop 2 arrows through his laughing face one day, unless it's the same ghost that heads in the opposite direction around the same area in which case i've already fulfilled my revenge

 

[SaintMadeOfPlaster]

Just finished the Fire Temple on Master Quest. That was brutal. I'm loving how different these dungeons are, though.

Also, the

cows

all over Jabu Jabu's belly had me laughing.

 

[SolarKnight]

Add another person to list the of people that got killed in the Deku Tree in Master Quest after pretty much not dying during all of the normal quest. Fucking golden skulltula >___<

It was a nice change though, I definitely will finish Master Quest.


Oh yeah, and because of reading this thread I fought Ganon with pretty much nothing but Deku Nuts. It was hilarious and awesome, I never imagined they'd actually stun him, much less hurt him XD

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

Call me stupid but I can't figure out how to get into the water temple

Don’t feel dumb, I've gotten stuck multiple times. The game can be vague.

I'm starting to think this version of master quest is gonna be known for peoples near death experience with the first gold skulltula.

I remember nearly dieing of a heart attack when it left me with just half a heart left.

 

[kiryogi]

Yeah that was a shocker with the Gold Skulltula. But I finally didn't get done in until I ran into the Giant Deku Babas. Sheesh.

 

[Turnstyle]

How do you get the heart container piece on top of the volcano(?) at the start of the Death Mountain dungeon?

I got the one in the little alcove in that room, but this one has me foxed.

Playing this for the second time (first time on Gamecube in 2004) and loving it.

You have to go there as a kid(Just use the Bolero of Fire song) and plant a seed there. It's right next to you if you use the teleport.
Then come back as an adult and jump on the plant.

I usually just do a backflip over the fence at the bomb plant.

EDIT: Whoops, thought you guys were talking about the one above Dodongo's cavern.

 

[Javier]

I have noticed a slight change. In the original version, after you dropped bugs on the soft soil, you had a chance to re-catch one of them while the others dug to the ground and gave you an skulltula. Now, after you drop the bugs on soft soil, the game won't let you re-catch them as they burrow themselves underground, meaning that if you go skulltula hunting, you have to find a new set of bugs every time you use the ones you have.

Equip two jars: the bug jar and an empty jar.

Drop bugs away from the soft soil.

Pick up bugs in both jars.

Use one to get the skulltula out of the soft soil.

Still have a bug without having to go find more.

 

[kaskade]

I may just keep it sealed.

 

[McNum]

Can you do this as Young Link? I'm playing Master Quest, and I got this idea that I want all the Heart Pieces I can get before each dungeon. Ideally aiming for 6 hearts before setting foot in the Dodongo Cave, if possible.

 

[SolarKnight]

If you use a bomb to give you extra height, yes, that is how I did it.

 

[Roto13]

You certainly don't need a bomb to reach that heart piece with a jump.

 

[Myriadis]

I may just keep it sealed.

Wondering,does it show the track list on t back side?I want to know which songs are there.All songs is too much for one single disc,I think.

 

[SolarKnight]

As a kid though?

 

[Roto13]

As a kid though?

You don't need a bomb as a kid or an adult. I've never even heard of anyone using a bomb to get that heart piece.

 

[kaskade]

Wondering,does it show the track list on t back side?I want to know which songs are there.All songs is too much for one single disc,I think.

Yeah, it does. There's 51 tracks. I'm 90% sure it's one disc based on the weight.

 

[ombz]

Yeah, it does. There's 51 tracks. I'm 90% sure it's one disc based on the weight.

Ya, its one disc. the songs don't cycle so they are all short.

 

[McNum]

Just did the jump. No bomb needed. Don't even have the Goron Bracelet yet. What I do have, though, is six hearts. Is seven possible before the Dodongo Cave? I know of a couple more Heart Pieces, but four might be a problem.

 

[SolarKnight]

Huh, I could‘ve sworn he couldn‘t get high enough when I tried it. Nevermind me then. Still, it feels weird that it pretty much defeats the purpose of planting a bean to get there.

 

[Myriadis]

Yeah, it does. There's 51 tracks. I'm 90% sure it's one disc based on the weight.

Woah.These songs must be really short then,considering they surely have to pack in the 17 pieces of Hyrule Theme and the Temple songs aren't that short.

Most of the stuff is here, only difference with the original soundtrack is the reverb Yokota added (see Iwata asks).
The orchestrated extra Grezzo credits is the last track.

 

[magicalsoundshower]

I had no idea you could use the hookshot underwater, it seemed so absurd so I didn't even try it.

The water temple seems pretty cool so far, right now I'm missing a key or two but I guess I'll eventually figure out what I missed.

Cool,thanks a lot!
Comparing it with the complete Music List,they got all the right songs on the disc.The only thing left out were several short jingles , "child" ocarina songs and the dungeon themes that no one really wants to hear anyway,Dodongos Cavern, Jabu Jabus Belly and Ganons Castle Themes.

 

[McNum]

Huh, I could‘ve sworn he couldn‘t get high enough when I tried it. Nevermind me then. Still, it feels weird that it pretty much defeats the purpose of planting a bean to get there.

That bean has a much better purpose. It's a major shortcut for the final run of the Biggoron Sword trade. Cuts a good 20-30 seconds off.

Anyway, I'm at 6 hears and 1 piece now. I could go get the fishing one pretty fast for six and two. But I'm running really low on ideas to find two more that don't require bombs or access to areas I don't have yet. Can I get those at the bridge to Gerudo Valley already, I wonder?

Yeah, I'm obsessing a bit over this because it's Master Quest. I'm bringing my very best for this. The Deku Tree was deadly, so I'm going to be prepared for the Cave. Pretty fun to do it like this, really. I hope Skyward Sword has a similar hard mode. A Zelda game with teeth is actually pretty fun.

 

[Roto13]

Can I get those at the bridge to Gerudo Valley already, I wonder?

Yeah. Both of them.

 

[Peagles]

On the topic of the soundtrack, has anybody ever noticed the difference between the Forest Temple in game and the Forest Temple on the soundtrack? Or at least, there's 2 versions online, and one of them has a different flute that I never heard in-game, and doesn't seem to build up as much.

There's this one (which I think is off the soundtrack, but not sure) where the flute starts about 0.18 in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXn88mY50XM

And this one where the flute starts about 0.12 in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=322V5rD6ko4 It starts to get really intense at about 1.00 where the other version's flute doesn't. This was my favourite section of that song so upon hearing the other one I immediately noticed the difference.

The second one is what is in my N64 game (I'm not up to it yet in 3DS so can't speak for which version they use in there), but does anybody know the story behind these two versions?

 

[GSR]

Out of curiosity, I tried to get as far as I could without stepping foot in the Forest Temple. Halfway through the Water Temple, as far as I can tell. A shame, I was hoping I could get through that before needing to actually do what Navi has been bugging me for the past several hours to do.

 

[Roto13]

I never noticed that. But speaking of music changes, here's the original Fire Temple music for anyone who never got the chance to play the early version of Ocarina of Time.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDcQVzu_kc8

The chanting starts around 0:55 and gets more intense around 1:35. It makes the Fire Temple a LOT creepier. Too bad it was removed in later versions.

 

[Naked Snake]

I'm pretty sure the Forest Temple music on 3DS is the same as the N64 version.

<3 it/

 

[ASIS]

Just beat this game 100% God what a brilliant game.

Unless they fixed it from the N64 version, I think you can complete the game without completing the Forest Temple. You just need to grab the arrows then you can leave.

 

[oatmeal]

I just entered the Water Temple...I actually forgot about a few things so far. But I'm flying through.

Absolutely loving it. Just really trying to get to Master Quest, though.

Does Master Quest get its own 3-save menu? Or is it combined?

 

[sfried]

Does anybody have a nice clean pic of the cover of the CD (for iTunes label purposes).

 

[oatmeal]

Sans the chanting.

 

[Magicpaint]

Sans the chanting.

What? Don't tell me they removed that.

 

[Naked Snake]

Sans the chanting.

Nope. I have the game running on 3DS in front of me right now (I kept a save file at the Forest Temple because I love it so much), and the chanting is there.

Edit: Perhaps you meant the Fire Temple?

It gets its own 3 slots.

 

[McNum]

Yeah. Both of them.

Thanks! That solved that part of my problem. Up to 7 hearts without setting foot in Dodongo's Cave. I believe this is the point where I can tell Master Quest to bring it on. 7 hearts and two bottles of milk. I'm ready for anything that dungeon can throw at me.

This almost feels a bit like cheating, but when the game pulls no punches, I don't either. Hmm, I wonder if how many hearts are possible before Jabu-Jabu. Just to check if my memory is good:

Spoiler

Two pieces in bomb-holes on Hyrule Field(2), two pieces on the path to Zora's Domain(4). One in the Bombchu game(5). One for lighting up Zora's Domain(6). One in Death Mountain(7) and one for flying Air-Owl to Kakariko (8). Post Jabu-Jabu one more in the Windmill with the Boomerang(9), although that one can be gotten as an adult, too. There's one in the chest game, but the odds of getting that are abysmal pre-lens, and since I don't have the Song of Storms, I can't get the frog ones yet.

But with seven hearts now, plus the two bosses and 8 more pieces, I'd be up to 11 before pulling the Master Sword. Huh, I thought 10 was the most you'd get as Young Link. Funny enough, I believe I had 7 hearts when I pulled the Master Sword in my normal game.

I'm beginning to like Master Quest a lot. It makes me think about what I need to do in the game rather than just play it by ear.

 

[cacophony]

I haven't play this in like 2 weeks. I got to the Spirit Temple boss and stopped. I always do this with games. Need to finish it tonight.

 

[Naked Snake]

I haven't played in a while, waiting for my hand grip to arrive in the mail. This game is the only one to give me hand cramps.

Hmm. Not sure what you'd need the bow for in the water temple (if you have Din's fire for the odd torch and the hookshot for switches). Maybe I forgot something - it might be possible.
