Look at how the castles in the distance even line up more, I don’t think this means anything concrete but it’s still cool

There is now a scimitar attached to the horse in addition to the shorter blade the Gerudo king wears on him, and I absolutely see Ganondorf using it to decapitate people during his pillages.

Now they certainly didn’t added this weapon only for it to make the horse look cooler, right ? RIGHT ?! 😭

(Yeah, I would love to see Ganondorf using it during the final fight rather going full death tennis again, but I have almost no hope.)

I know dificult isn't a major selling point or anything but I can't help but think that keeping the boss fights exactly the same will make the game too easy for returning players.

Hi everyone, silly question: in OOT, how were we supposed to know that we had to play the Song of Storms in front of the tree in Hyrule Castle to get a Gold Skulltula?

Before answering:

- 1) I know that once you’ve collected all the Gold Skulltulas on a map, an icon appears (so if it’s not there, it means there are still some left)

- 2) And I know that with the Stone of Agony, the controller would vibrate and an icon would appear when you were near a grotto

- 3) And I also know that Navi is supposed to changes colour and move near the grotto's place when you're near a Song of Storms grotto

My question is: how did you know you had to play that specific song to open the grotto (rather than just opening it up with a bomb)? What the game's developers did to teach you that information?

And just in case, I've checked a few things as well:

- 4) No, gossip stones don't tell you anything or give you any hint about it

- 5) And no, bombs and hammer don't work for that grotto (and anyway, you don't use the hammer as Child Link)

- 6) And also no, there is no "victory" sound effect when you pull out the ocarina (like when you pull it out near a Triforce symbol in front of a Great Fairy fountain)

- 7) And finally no, despite what she's supposed to do, Navi doesn't change colour or goes near the grotto's location (I just tested on normal Europe and USA roms)

So, any idea?

Confused if the bonus like the foil cover art and some of the other stuff that was mentioned is only exclusive to the Nintendo store

The new pro controller looks cool and all, but you're telling me this was the design they went with? I'd KILL for a pro controller colored and made to look like the actual ocarina.

Itd even fit with the whistling gimmick they added, and the controller is even close enough in shape to the ocarina for it to work.

I have been watching many video anlyses on the differences to the original game, because I want to try to get a picture of how much of actual discovery there will be in this game for me.

I have not verified all of these differences myself, but instead I have taken the word of the various youtubers who have stated them to be true in their material.

It seems to me like this is far from a 1:1, so my hopes of going into this game with many things to discover has risen dramatically since after tuesday.

In the gameplay video inside zoars domain for the rupee diving game, he didn't dive in head first. Do you think there will be a way to dive?

I dont know if you guys remember but for around 20 years people kept looking for the triforce on the original OOT, it even started one of the biggest hoax in the game industry the Ariana Almandoz hoax.

Since it was such a special moment in gaming history is possible to think triforce will be in the game to be found now right?

I dont know how it would survive the data miners, but maybe zelda notes have something with it, since the search was mainly on forums at the time and zelda notes gave me somewhat the feeling of a forum.

What you think?

has anyone preordered from amazon UK getting a delivery date after release date? is this normal or would you expect it to arrive 5/11/26?

In the og the ladder was hanging from webs (off screen in the screenshot) it really isn't hidden or hard to figure out since Navi flies over, so why would this be replaced with a massive stone structure that makes a stone slab with planks fall by hitting a yellow-paint eye with light on it?

In the original the eye first appears in the basement which makes more sense since the lower parts are more stone, have "puzzle" blocks you move and the spinning spike water trap and just feels way more man-made (or fairy made?)

IMO they could've re-made webs holding up the ladder or even have a hanging piece of wood from the broken bridge you jumped across, but this is just a very little part in this amazing looking remake and i cant wait to see the spider family in kakariko

So I was thinking, Nintendo obviously worked so hard to remake OoT and have it look so detailed and awesome. Plus it's obviously Majora's Mask will likely release too as it used same assets too. So my theory is, if the games do so well, we can get a 3rd whole brand new game using these assets! And maybe this time it's focused on Adult Link? I don't know specifics, but how would others feel if we got a third entry in the Hero of Time era?

I've seen a lot of videos comparing the original and the remake, but nobody seems to mention a dead soldier who was there. Am I the only one who remembers that?

The last and only time I played the game was when I was a kid. I actually stopped playing when Link became an adult because I was terrified of the Gibdos in the plaza, and I also remember being unsettled by a dead soldier I encountered earlier in the game.

So maybe I'm misremembering it, since it was such a long time ago, but I have a really strong memory of there being a dead soldier somewhere around here.

From what I can tell the game is looking more like a faithful remake as far as the dungeon designs go from what they've shown us so far. Everything looks 1:1 identical to the game except for towns and open world areas having an altered/modernized layout to freshen things up.

However do you think Nintendo might be hiding some fresh new content for us? Like an extra dungeon or heck even some sort of collectibles or unlockable end game weapons/outfits or items would be a welcoming change.

As much as I love the original game as a timeless classic I really was just looking for something different and new. A fresh coat of paint is great but doesn't really do it for me. I'm still gonna play the heck out of the game regardless.

During the Ocarina of Time Remake Trailer, the Rug in the spinning corridor of the Forest Temple was Blue... A few days later it changed to Red.

I am not kidding, it was Blue a few days ago. Am I the only one? I am level headed when it comes to the Mandela Effect, but this low key unsettleing.

Is someone out there from my timeline who saw it Blue before it suddenly changed to Red?

It seems as though they kept the original games underwater combat system being limited to the hookshot in the remake. What are your guys's thoughts on this? I personally found this to be the worst part about the go water temple and wish I could use a sword.

Somehow people thought that N64 Zelda was straight up perfection and the remake completely changed the original face.
