The critics have spoken: OoT3D is the best Zelda game ever! But what do you think? Is it better than the original? I think it is. It has:

• Easter eggs like hints to puzzles and artwork from previous and future Zelda games
• Better graphics
• Full advantage of 3DS 3D and tilt technology
• ...A lot more!

It's true, the new game is excellent. I saw an hour's worth of footage on a fan site, Zelda Dungeon. This website also has excellent walkthroughs for every Zelda game known to man.
But what do you think of the new version of the classic game? I think it's better, mostly because I don't have an N64 so I have to play OoT on this website, and the controls are awkward. But what do you think?

I don't know, I haven't played it yet. I'm sure it's exactly the same as the original except in 3D. I wonder how that looks. I suppose being that it's 3D the graphics are more realistic..other than that I expect it to be the same.

IGN and Nintendo Power both gave it 9.5/10, seems good in ratings, I'll pick up my copy in 10 hours.

It's gonna be awesome, because of the improved graphics, the new touchscreen stylings, and the stereoscopic 3D.

When I saw this game, I thought to myself  "sure, a game can be good, but it can't be that good, can it?" So I got this game just to see how good it was. *goes away and plays it for 5 minutes* Do you want to know how good it was? It was love at first sight! Just seeing the title screen was enough to convince me this was a good game. And in 3d as well! After seeing the opening sequence, I loved it even more. Even when it's not in 3d, it looks spectacular. I'm sure if I had played the game when it came out for the 64, I would have loved it all the same. This game is....well, amazing. Truly amazing. 1 hour in and I'm at Death Mountain. Sounds like a nice place. The gyro motion works well because you feel like your link, looking where he's looking. I look forward to playing this more.

I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to play this at school today when my friend brought it over.

To be honest, it's not the 3D that betters the game; you can hardly notice it when you're playing. What they did do was remaster the graphics so now it looks much brighter and they made several interface changes (such as the map on the bottom screen) that makes the game a lot easier to play. Tilting the system in order to shoot is a nice little addition as well. Lastly, after you beat the game, you get access to the Master Quest, which is a much more difficult version of the original game. So yes, it's much better than its predecessor in every way and is a lot more awesome than awful.

Any epic classic is awesome with updated graphics. If we know Nintendo there should be extras in the newer version of their games, I'm sure everyone will love it just as much as the original.

AWESOME! I am willing to shell out money to get the 3DS *just* to play that game. 

Improved graphics = YAY!

Extras? I wonder if they'll modify the storyline... They did never tell about Navi walking away and the intro to Majora's Mask never made sense >.> Link never said which friend he was looking for, which is most likely Navi.

It looks pretty great. As soon as I get a 3DS that game is one of the games I'm definitely getting first.

I love Ocarina of Time for the 3DS!! It's the only reason I bought the 3DS really, but I also needed a new DS because I have the very first one. It's cool when you get to move the DS to shoot and the graphics are amazing in both 2D and 3D. I like having the map, inventory, and such on the bottom screen, makes playing the game so much easier than before. I already beat the normal game and am on Master Quest. The whole map flips so you have to remember to go the opposite direction when moving around. It can be confusing if you don't remember the flipping. The story is just the same as always. It reminds me of all the time me and my brother spent on the N64 playing the original.

Yes, the game is so fun.  I own it and I just couldn't believe my eyes about the 3D graphics.  There are some new features and what's best is that once you beat the game, you can play Master's Quest and it is the same on the N64, but everything is backwards, which is cool.

I haven't tried it but it doesn't seem that fun to me. I really don't know why. I'm not really a fan of my 3DS, I just use it for my music sometimes lol.

Galacta : I don't think you gave it a chance. The same thing happened with me. I got my 3DS the moment it was released. I tried it "Ohh cool........" put in the closet with the rest of the rusty games. But now I actually downloaded some games from the store, bought some games like OOT and starfox3d, It's actually pretty cool

Dude it's sick! It's got the great 3d, great graphics, same awesome gameplay, plus it includes Ura Zelda/Zelda Masterquest! It's the greatest. Only problem is is that is is sooooo expensive...

In my opinion, this game did the impossible and perfected what was already an almost perfect game.
