Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (3DS)

I'm really looking forward to this personally. I think OoT is a great game and its been ages since I played through it. Plus the nice thing is that this will include the master quest, for those who have beaten it a shit ton of times already.

One of those times where we agree completely!

I got bored out of my mind both times I tried to finish OoT. I might give this another chance if I ever get a 3DS.

Nice.

I will buy it if I see it for 15 dollah.

Oot is a classic example of a Nintendo game I played the hell out of at it's original release and never touched again. This would be a great excuse to go back to it, have a few gripes though:

-Apparently the music isn't really enhanced which would be insane. Cart size isn't a factor anymore and there's arrangements out there.

-30 fps. I know the N64 version didn't run at that but even in 3D mode the 3DS should be be able to hit 60 with these models.

I never get tired of playing OOT every few years. It's a solid game, but more than that, it holds immense nostalgic value for me (even as someone that played through all the previous Zeldas as they came out).

Can the 3DS hardware even do more than that? If it has two 60Hz screens, it can't exceed 30 fps in 3D.

It can. Both are 60hz regardless of 3D. System resources are the reason that the framerate drops in 3D and any game would have to be able to run at 120fps in 2D to be able to run at 60fps in 3D.

I may have some of that wrong, but Monkey Ball runs at 60fps in 3D in some modes.

I can't find refresh rate information for the dual top LCDs. That would be the key here.

That's because it sucks. Worst game in the franchise by a landslide. Even if it wasn't, it's pretty shocking the 3DS's "killer app" is an update of a ten year-old game...
