That reminds me of the old days where a lot of people wanted a 2d ocarina of time. One famous guy attempting it faked his own death because it was too hard for a team of one to pull off.

YES! OoT 2D. I too was looking forward to that. Too bad it, like many fan made games go no where. :( Another one that would have been cool as shittake was that unreal engine remake of OoT. That one appears to still be in active development: https://www.youtube.com/user/CryZENx/videos?view=0&flow=grid&sort=dd

Gotta cross our fingers that Nintendo does not pull a Square Enix like how, Chrono Trigger - Crimson Echo, almost didn't happen.

I think if ninty thought aLttP on 3ds was a good decision they would've made it already. Unfortunately I think it's too close to the 3ds' end of life for a game like that to be developed.

There's a little consolidation. The 3DS will hang on for another year and maybe more. Here's hoping to AttP in 3DS style. :D

Personally, I'd say OOT 3D. The game itself is amazing and is considered one of the greatest games ever made, but it also comes with a challenge mode and has a lot to offer. Plus, it has tons of replay value.

Oh is that what happened to OoT2D? I was actually working on music for that and then I left for a while and suddenly it just kind of looked like everything halted

I just bought Majora's Mask for now, thanks all for giving me advice!
Quick advice, you have to be really patient when playing this game. Specially during the start until you get the 3 day time warping tricks. If you get how the day system works, everything will be a breeze like a normal Zelda game.

Learn the song of Time, song of double time, and the song that skips time (too lazy to search than type guys.)

Inverted time, it makes time half as slow

Yeah. That. Thank you.
That game hitted my nerve right of the bat. Luckily, i was motivated by my gaming will and got it (Conscience: im a gamer will. i need to beat this sh*t.) Turned out to be one good plot in zelda series.

I have one more quick question: Is it okay to play BotW as my first Zelda game? I mean, how much do you think will effect on how I see the old Zelda games?

To me, nothing.

The story per game is whole. So you'd understand it anyway. If you put it chronological order, it will makes sense, but since the timeline is split to three, the order doesnt matter that much anyway.

Youll enjoy it regardless of the order.

Majora's Mask has aged much better than OOT. But i also had lots of fun playing ALBW. I would certainly play all three of those games, cause they are the best Zelda games you will find!

I would say Majora has aged better graphically (if we're talking original n64 titles), but the difficulty spike and waiting around required in MM are gonna be much harder for modern gamers.

Now of course allowing the song of double time to skip to specific hours will mitigate this somewhat in MM3D.

In my experience it's harder to get modern gamers interested in MM than OoT.

Very true. OoT is more linear and on point.
MM is tricky and you need to conserve the time or else, you are going to repeat dungeons and questsa lot.

MM is my all time favorite just because of how different even for a zelda game it was- its an incredible work of art.

however... OoT is a work of art as well. better to recommend.

the 3DS versions of both are the defintive versions to play- OoT for dealing with the water temple/boots equip (making it fun) and MM for revised song of time/saving system.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
