Yes, which is a shame to me considering I really wasn't impressed with the new XL.Europe right? Is it also true that there's "New" versions of both the standard and XL 3DS for Europe/Asia but only 3DS XL for NA?

That's some glitch.Uh this game. It's glitched and gotten me stuck like 4 times in the main areas of the game as octorok link.
The improved 3D is more than worth the upgrade. I've had the console for three months and its still stunning to look at.
What? Is this some sort of new feature?octorok link.
Think he means Deku Link.What? Is this some sort of new feature?
Uh this game. It's glitched and gotten me stuck like 4 times in the main areas of the game as octorok link. Had to exit out and restart game. Very frustrating.
I imported from Australia last year. Same region as here in Europe. XL.
And yes, every region is getting both the regular and the XL apart from America who are only getting the XL
Yes, which is a shame to me considering I really wasn't impressed with the new XL.
Also to be fair, the eye tracking is really impressive when it works. Just don't wear sunglasses while playing games.
It is the same type of 3D tech so if you weren't impressed by the 3D effect before then your opinion will not change. Way bigger sweet spot is nice though.
If they make a new LE that is matte then I may upgrade, but the starting XL SKUs bore me. Both regulars are pretty damn good though.
What do you mean? For example, physically stuck in the walls?
I hope so. It was hearing you say this a few months ago that pushed me into ordering one. "Well, if richisawesome says this is the case, I guess it is..."
I was bored and booted up Lost World bonus levels. The gyro and 3D did not work at all. However, since the gyro controls are more subtle in MM, I bet it will probably still work.Also, there are games that can use gyro and 3D at the same time. Those games risked breaking the effect, but N3DS should solve that nicely.
Rich, can you tag your images to reduce size imo?
Eurogamer review
Looks like they have dropped given games a score out of 10
That's not how I interpreted the review. They say the game wouldn't be the same without it, so they know it's important. They just acknowledge it can be polarizing in its complexity.Haha, wow, it's really disheartening seeing reviewers treat the game's biggest gimmick (the time limit) with such disdain.
Really? Describe these sound effects.Oh my god
There's loads of new weird sound effects in cut scenes. The flashback of how tatl and tael met skull kid is a good example. Tatl and tael now have sound in that cutscene and its slightly over the top
This is an excellent changeAlso, you now learn the Song of Soaring IMMEDIATELY as you enter Southern Swamp
Really? Describe these sound effects.
Edit: also I was worrying over nothing over the owl statue saving and the song of double time changes. Now I'm playing it, I have to say they are improvements. Yes. And the bombers notebook is fine too, if a bit annoying having it pop up every time you meet someone new.
While I personally wasn't worried at all it's really cool to hear you've come around on it after getting hands-on with it.
Yeah. It definitely retains the original feel of the game and really doesn't change things. I was worrying seemingly over nothing. It is absolutely fine, the tension is still there.
Every single thing about this remaster is first class so far. You can tell from the very start that this game has had far more love poured into it than OOT3D. Its too good.
I keep hearing about weird framedrops occasionally and camera glitches from someone off-site. Experienced anything like that?
Nope. If anything, the frame rate has been rock solid for me and everything feels significantly more fluid than in OOT3D. I remember when I was in the Desert Colossus in OOT3D the other night and the frame rate dropped to a horrendous level after playing the song of storms and filling the oasis.. Not seen anything like that in MM yet.
But I've only just got to the southern swamp, so who knows.
Camera is fine. No glitches so far. C Stick camera movement is cool but ultimately useless
I can't believe they make all these user-friendly changes but don't hit people over the head with those two songs. Like I said, if I were in charge of this remake, I'd have the Happy Mask Salesman teach them to you as soon as you're human again.Uh
So far no one has taught me the Song of Double Time or the Song of Reverse Time. Obviously I can play them, and they work but...
...I think the OT for this game is going to have to make the two songs abundantly clear for new players. Not even the scarecrow offered to teach me the songs when I talked to him, so maybe I'm missing something. Maybe the Sheikah stone teaches you it now?
If people play through MM3D for the first time and not realize there is a song of reverse time, they're not gonna have a good time

I can't remember how it worked originally, but I'm sure it wasn't that obvious then, either. Weren't they just hinted at, rather than taught explicitly?
↑ "If you play that mysterious song backward, you can slow the flow of time. And if you play each note twice in a row, you can move a half day forward in time!" Scarecrow (Majora's Mask, N64)

in the observatory he explains it if you whip out the ocarina
Damned if they do, damned if they don't.
The scarecrow still tells you about both songs when you talk to him, in the observatory he explains it if you whip out the ocarina and in the curiosity shop just by talking to him. Pretty sure there's a rumor that tells you about it and there's a Sheikah stone that hints at it.
Honestly some of the changes do confuse me like the ice arrow thing.Never had to do that in the original. He always mentioned it when you spoke to him at both locations. Now he doesn't.
Its a fucking bizarre change, sorry. Why would anyone get their ocarina out at that point without prompting?!

Wrong.
You had to do it in the original. I just beat it last week.
As I mentioned above, 15 years ago, you knew to whip it out because two years prior, Ocarina taught you that you needed. Without this reference today, it will confuse new players, I agree.
Are amazon preorders for the LE really not going to arrive until next week?
Wrong.

Amazon? Preorders on time? Nevah.
There's a reason I will never again preorder with Amazon.

Actually, I was mistaken, the scarecrow tells you when you talk to him, no need for the ocarina. You probably just skipped it.Never had to do that in the original. He always mentioned it when you spoke to him at both locations. Now he doesn't.
Its a fucking bizarre change, sorry. Why would anyone get their ocarina out at that point without prompting?!
And the trading post scarecrow isn't the most obvious thing to find. They had an ideal opportunity with the one in the observatory and they fucked it up.
I was talking about Gossip Stones, they're exactly the same as they were in the original games, both OoT and MM. The Super Guide Sheikah Stones ( there are two in OoT 3D and one in MM) tell you stuff outright, but that's their function, they're there to help people who are completely lost and want to know what to do.The Sheikah stones in OOT3D tell you literally EVERYTHING, so it would be hard to believe they don't tell you about these in MM3D.
The OOT ones even tell you how to get Forore's wind, and then also how to use it.
