Ocarina of Time 3DS gets sweet art, new site photo

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D opened an official site recently, and while it doesn't have much to say for itself, there is a really sweet piece of artwork that has been presented in full by the chaps at Zelda Power. Check it out in the gallery, and make sure to play with the "3D" version on the teaser page.

In addition, Nintendo recently released the box art for the game, and it looks pretty damn classy. I'm going to cross my fingers and hope for a proper shiny gold box, or one of those lenticular deals. That would look nice on my shelf. 

Yes, I know it's sad that one of the most exciting 3DS games is a rehash of an N64 game, but ... whatever. I'm looking forward to it nonetheless.

I hope this means the 'port' will actually include all new visuals to go along with the 3D.

PLEASE LET THE CARTRIDGE BE GOLD COLOURED.

Tiny gripe I know, but this pissed me off with both the DS Zelda & Pokemon games. Keep traditions damn you.

I'm going to make it clear what I want:

SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD! SKYWARD SWORD!

Seriously. They said expect it in the beginning of 2011. We're past that point now and with no release date. At least tell us what the fuck is going on with it. I want to play the game that I haven't already played a dozen times already.

Yeah, six years without one Wii built Zelda game is a bit sad, I'll admit.

But I'd much rather have a remade Ocarina than another original title like Spirit Tracks & Phourglass- which were in my opinion, the weakest Zelda titles yet.

@MasterBalls: You have to admit, thought, Minish Cap felt like a complete, hard Zelda game

It's getting harder and harder to imagine myself holding out on buying a 3DS until the 3DSi or whatever comes out :-/

Actually looks like a girlish/poney themed art for me.

Now if Nintendo made the game look more like that art, I would be more excited for OoT. o-o

Oh hell yes, I'm still personally hoping they add GBA games to the VC so I can finally play that one.

Honestly I should be angry and know better then to buy a 3ds for this, but I HONESTLY can't help it. I loved Ocarina that much, and the thought of playing it on the bus / or train makes me fucking moronically giddy. I just can't wait.

Yeah I'm not going to lie - I bought a 3DS on launch day JUST so I'd be ready to play this game the day it comes out.

I want it but I don't have a 3DS, and even Ocarina of Time is not enough to make me drop $250 on a system that I don't want.

Agreed that phantom hourlglass is the weakest Zelda. Still sore that 4 swords DS got canceled in favor of that.

More on topic. Yes it's a remake. But it's portable now and in 3D. It also helps that it's one of the greatest games ever. How can anyone not be excited. Well I suppose if you've beaten many times I can see your point.

@klemoib
hehehe... eunuch.

Wanting this game is tough. It's an epic game with tons of great content to back it up. I'm really more of a Soul Reaver fan when it comes to platforming and action/adventure titles but this rocks just as much in my book. It's not going to make me run out and get the 3ds just yet, but it's going to make it harder to wait once it's out.

the game isnt a port

and by the way all developers port/remake/repackage

so if you have a problem with nintendo you have a problem with the game industry

It will be great to play this classic again. I don't think I'd touched this game or Majora's Mask since 2000 or so. Speaking of which don't you think we need it on 3ds too???

You don't know Nintendo very well, do you? Do you remember how long Twilight Princess was put on hold? Five years, if I remember correctly. That's about how long I had it reserved for.

@Gaidenrider: I don't agree with that, I mean I liked Minish Cap alot but I felt it lacked enough dungeons to get placed high on my list of the best zeldas. It was a great game otherwise but it needed more content in my opinion, I'm tired of seeing less challenge in my games!

pedrovay2003:

I'm betting that Nintendo is holding back Skyward Sword for their new console (a few sources have reported that they will reveal a new console at E3 and schedule it for a late 2012 release).

For some reason, I really hope that they have a soundtrack as a pre-order gift or something. I doubt it will happen, since it doesn't seem like something Nintendo would do, but Ocarina of Time has some great music. ESPECIALLY the opening music (on the website). That song is beautiful.

@sewageking:

I agree it would be great if Nintendo released a limited/pack edition with extra goodies or just some goodies related to Zelda at all, given that is one of the best Zelda games getting a port and the most anticipated 3DS game as of yet.
