EDIT: ^^^ Btw, who is this handsome motherfucker?

 

[Luigiv]

Err, no. Anybody using the term 'orchestral music' should be referring to the use of an orchestra.

They should be but most don't.

 

[EatChildren]

They should be but most don't.

Then those people are fools who should stop using the term.

 

[Dreamwriter]

Ahh, you guys do realise when gamers* say "orchestral music" what they actually mean is "pre-recorded music, with real instruments", right?

*Key word here. You can't hold gaming conversations up to normal standards. If I had a dollar for every time someone claimed Sonic Colours had an orchestral soundtrack...

When it comes to Zelda, people are truly talking about orchestral music. They think it should be this epic orchestral soundtrack. They compare it to Mario Galaxy, which had orchestral music. They just never think about all the areas where an orchestra just wouldn't fit - they just think about the overworld and battle themes.

EDIT: ^^^ Btw, who is this handsome motherfucker?

That's Maradona, greatest football player ever, quite bad football coach.

 

[Codeblue]

EDIT: ^^^ Btw, who is this handsome motherfucker?

That's Diego Maradona of football fame.

Edit: Beaten and to remove that picture to avoid a Maradona overflow.

 

[civilstrife]

This is the only tune that needs to be heard when the orchestral music question comes up.

YES YES YES

No idea if old and not sure if thread-worthy, but according to the Australian rating boards OoT 3D is developed by Grezzo Co. (Line Attack Heroes): http://www.classification.gov.au/ww...a13741957e396ac6ca25786f005d80a3?OpenDocument

Thanks to Onilink for the heads up.

 

[Madao]

so, it is an outsourced port...

*in before people asking wtf is nintendo doing internally*

 

[cw_sasuke]

great, means that EAD is probably already workin on a new "real" 3DS zelda....

 

[Instro]

so, it is an outsourced port...

[AniHawk]

they gave it to the line attack heroes guys? weird. wonder if this means the actual zelda team will have a hand in the 25th anniversary thing then.

No fucking way. Wow! Wouldn't have guessed that one!

I guess EAD 3 is mostly busy working on Skyward Sword then (though they may be prototyping for a 3DS game as well I guess)

 

[wwm0nkey]

Guess that explains the lack of new music.

Wonder what the zelda team is working on then.

 

[wrowa]

Outsourcing a port/remake of Ocarina of Time of all games is kinda wtf. It explains why we don't get new content worth mentioning, though.

I'm confident that Grezzo will make a good job with Nintendo's supervision, but due to some reason I'm a bit disappointed by the news.

 

[antonz]

Guess that explains the lack of new music.

Wonder what the zelda team is working on then.

Majoras Mask 3DS: 2012 Edition. All new meaning the the impending doom of the moon

 

[Varjet]

Guess that explains the lack of new music.

Wonder what the zelda team is working on then.

I'll go out on a limb here and say... Skyward Sword.

 

[wwm0nkey]

I'll go out on a limb here and say... Skyward Sword.

I doubt that is the only thing they are working on

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

I doubt that is the only thing they are working on

I doubt that they're doing anything more than prototyping at this point though. Skyward Sword is surely taking up most of their resources.

 

[Jocchan]

I guess it wasn't old then. Making a new thread for new news.

It's official - not only the release date (June 19), but we now know for sure the Master Quest is included!

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D brings a completely re-mastered version of an epic entry in the beloved The Legend of Zelda game series to Nintendo’s newest hand-held system, Nintendo 3DS. The game couples phenomenally enhanced graphics with stunning, glasses-free 3D visuals to bring to life the daring adventures of its hero, Link™. A streamlined touch-screen interface and newly implemented motion controls provide a fresh and intuitive feel as players immerse themselves in the tale of the creation of Hyrule and the struggle for control of its all-powerful ancient relic. The game will also feature new challenges not included in the original game. The Legend of Zelda veterans can look forward to the Master Quest – a second quest with revamped puzzles and redesigned dungeons that feature the same graphical and interface upgrades as the main game. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D is a masterful improvement on one of the landmark releases in video game history.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

So who is starting with master quest. Me me me. I beat the regular game like 4-5 times but I've only beaten master quest once so it will be fresher.

 

[Dreamwriter]

If the game allows it, I will play Master Quest first, since I never got the chance before. I always thought it sucked that Nintendo never sold the OOT+Master Quest collection, you could only get it if you preordered Wind Waker. Finally I'll get to play it, and in 3D no less!

Was Master Quest on the GC Zelda collection? Can't remember.

 

[Varjet]

Nope.

 

[Gravijah]

Nope.

Not that it matters either way anyway, since my copy was STOLEN. :/

 

[MisterHero]

It was in the earlier promo disc for Wind Waker

 

[Uchip]

Looks awesome in motion.

video makes me feel drunk to be honest with you

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Improved graphics and 3D will probably make Quest I a "fresh" experience anyways.

 

[Fernando Rocker]

Day 1, for sure... specially because the Master Quest is included.

 

[Fernando Rocker]

Is it confirmed to run at 60fps?

 

[Gravijah]

It was in the earlier promo disc for Wind Waker

Actually, now that I think about it, maybe it was that that was stolen... Hmm...

 

[Bending_Unit_22]

No it came with the Zelda64 preorder bonus for Wind Waker.

Beaten again, grrr.

 

[The Lamonster]

yes, ganon and zelda too

haha shit

 

[Dreamwriter]

Is it confirmed to run at 60fps?

Last I heard the demos have been running at a solid 30fps (which is a huge update from the N64 version's 20fps + slowdown).

 

[Chet Rippo]

I was kinda hoping for some new screens. Oh well.

Not that it matters either way anyway, since my copy was STOLEN. :/

That's what happens to people who hate Luigi.

God I thought you were Gravijah for a moment.

 

[WillyFive]

New footage and opening.

 

[Ahoi-Brause]

New footage and opening.

The music... they really couldn't be bothered to update that?

 

[Hatty]

Looks great.

 

[Edag Plata]

The music... they really couldn't be bothered to update that?

You can't touch perfection.

 

[Ahoi-Brause]

You can't touch perfection.

You can touch shitty N64 midi.

 

[WillyFive]

You can touch shitty N64 midi.

The midi is fine. It sounds great.

But I wanted orchestral music. I don't want it to sound exactly as it did on the N64. I don't mean change it (like with Mario 64 DS's sound effects), but to make it better.

 

[Ahoi-Brause]

The midi is fine. It sounds great.

Your first console was the N64 I guess?

 

[Door2Dawn]

turn off the volume.

 

[MarshMellow96]

turn off the volume.

Even better - add your own fan-made orchestral pieces. Better than the real thing!

 

[MadraptorMan]

Can't play Master Quest until you beat the original game, fyi.

 

[Easy_D]

so, it is an outsourced port...

*in before people asking wtf is nintendo doing internally*

Skyward Sword and Super Mario 3DS?

 

[ajim]

Can't play Master Quest until you beat the original game, fyi.

horrible decision. now i'm angry. :'(
