This is fucking insane, look at this. It’s very much early indev, but the fact this is here is crazy.

From what I heard this guy never finishes a project, so don't get your hopes up too high.

He's the guy that just released the Mario 64 DS port with Multiplayer.
I trust that TP is a big enough game that he'll obsess enough to finish it. I hope he can optimize it with downgraded textures/LOD and lock it to 20fps and enable 3D. He talks about wishing to make it a game with 3D enabled, so I hope he can.
But my "dream" port needs Bottom Screen action, like making a 3DS port of the Wii U menu, even if it's just homemade UI. I'm sure you can do it, to switch Link's equipment on the fly.

If not this Tobi guy, I hope someone else will do it. TP 3D would be such a cool homebrew experience.

T-P can run on a 3ds. It ran on a gamecube, and the new 3ds is more powerful than it all around, with only the regular 3ds lacking in cpu clock speed iirc. Despite that it still has more built in features than the gamecube had. The only way it could probably lag is an unoptimized 3D mode. The 3DS is an unseen beast. It ran unreal 2 via tom clancy splinter cell year 1 and everyone kind of just forgot about that. It is totally capable of running full 3D experiences, its just nobody really cared to make it do so, probably because of the emerging mobile market and handhelds being seen as outdated at the time. (tbf the resolution REALLY sucks and is probably why there weren't so many)

It doesn't help that we're all so used to un-optimized shitty rushed games that we forget that its (probably) more than sufficient to run even the source engine at a bare minimum if you look at the xbox hl2 port. Game optimization is and was a dying breed back then. Thats probably why people see the 3DS as "weak"

He mentioned that in the video. I trust him, but I personally am not a huge Zelda fan so I cant say for certainty. I just put this here because the footage shown is still cool as hell.
