Goldeneye and Mario Kart 64 were the games everyone talked about at the time. If it wasn't for the internet I wouldn't have known Ocarina was so popular. I remember hype for it before release, but little word of mouth afterwards. Goldeneye on the other hand was all word of mouth.

Zelda was massively popular and the 4th most sold game on N64. Of course it's not a party game.

I've heard people say that the 3DS release is the "definitive version." Aside from the enhanced visuals, what else is different/better?

I'm going to go ahead and assume they re-worked parts of the Water Temple.

You have 3 item buttons and boots are now recognised as items. You switch them off and on with a single button press. Makes the whole temple much quicker to complete

The boot thing is a good change, but there were always 3 item buttons senpai

It didn't exist before the iPhone came around, and it stupidly replaced any & all terminology for software.

"Killer app" just means a popular end-user application that drives usage of the underlying platform. I don't think there really was a word for this before the iPhone. But if you hear it mean something else it just means you spend too much time with retards or don't know how to recognize and filter pleb-tier marketing bullshit.

>> No.4672284

>>4672269
you idiot.
"Killer App" has been around long before the iphone.
Fucking Halo had "the Killer App for the Xbox" written on the cover. Bill Gates had to explain what a killer app was to a lawyer during the anti-trust bullshit back in 2000.
Just fuck off and die somewhere.

The touch inventory is a great help in general and there's gyroscope-based controls for first person view and aiming now (slingshot, hookshot, bow) that are a lot of fun

>>4672225
>>4672241
There's four item slots now, not three. Two for the X and Y buttons, and another two that are screen-only and work well for bottles and other non-action/exploration tools. Also, the Ocarina now has its own dedicated touch button.

The Water Temple isn't really "reworked" as such (everything functions and flows in the same way), but some visual hints have been added as part of the decorations that help orienting yourself between levels. Also, the new boots-as-items change does make the experience smoother.

It also has the Master Quest mode, which works like the one from the GameCube port but also mirror-flips the entire game world, adding to a surprisingly fresh experience.

its 30 fps instead of 20fps and none of the other changes have a negative impact on the game.

its a shame the same can't be said for mm3d

The changes to the bosses were just too much.

>> No.4672407

>>4672376
its overall probably better but a lot of the changes just straight up make the game easier for no real reason. I don't mind a game being easier because the controls became more responsive as a result of a higher framerate, but theres a large number of areas which received direct nerfs that aren't really needed.

On top of the silly boss retools and dumbing down of most side quests through excessively detailed explanations, locations and timetables, they scrapped the original save system with an unlimited alternative that gives even more freedom than OoT to just save almost anywhere and any time. It simply spoils the mood and core concept of the original game; they should simply have added an instant one-time save/resume function usable at any point (considering the 3DS is a portable system) and keep the permasave limitations exactly the same.

I mean it's fine if you're revisiting the game and just want to breeze through everything, but it's a bit depressing to think there's people who will only play this version now
