Ocarina of Time remake for the 3DS? - CONFIRMED.


Joshura - Posted on 15 June 2010

Just a short while ago, these images that look curiously similar to Ocarina of Time appeared on Nintendo's E3 press site server. There is no accompanying information, but the images were pulled quickly. As you can see, the graphics look a bit better than the N64 original.

This could be a game very easily, since this represents an amount of work beyond just reframing old OoT screenshots. Redoing models, retexturing environments... I'm always an optimist when it comes to Zelda, so this has me quite excited.

I haven't been overly fond of the DS Zelda games, but if they were to become something more... 3D, with the aid of the 3DS' analog "slide pad," this could easily be the direction future handheld Zeldas will go in. I would miss the traditional 2D style, though.

Enjoy this gallery of the other images!

Update: At a round table just recently, this game has been confirmed. Here is the tweet that double-confirms it.

Update 2: Some of the experience will be streamlined (for the better, apparently). For example, you will be able to put on your iron boots from the touch screen, or change tunics from the touch screen, instead of having to pause.
