I like how Link now moves is legs slightly when jumping from a ledge. How are you liking the reworked colour? From the videos and screens ive seen, they did mess with tone a bit.

Overall how do you feel on the gyroscope controls?   It's something that kinda intrigues me, but I think in the end will be too much of trouble in most of my play situations.

Actually, I really dig it. It's nice having that ability to fine tune your aim with the gyroscope instead of the Circle Pad. I thought it would be dumb, but it's a nice (and completely optional) touch.

Naturally, in fast-paced situations I wouldn't advise using it, but for slow-paced puzzles, it's kind of refreshing.

Nice!!   That is just what I was hoping to hear!   Can't wait to try it out myself.

For epic boners use the eShop to view screenshots of OoT. It maps the entire thing over both screens. Looks so lovely :)

But the top that should be 3D in those screens is 2D... Blah.

Everyone knows that Robin Williams has a daughter right? No? Oh, well he does, and he named her Zelda... yes like Princess Zelda and yes she was named after Princess Zelda.
pssst! over here... I hear that Robin Williams is a big Nintendo fan.

Anyway, Princess Zelda... I mean Zelda Williams is doing a "Super Secret Nintendo Shoot" because apparently she is a model/actress and apparently doesn't realize that it is no longer a secret if she is not only telling us about it, but sharing pics of it with us.

The Super Secret Nintendo shoot has begun! More fun pics as the day progresses. Stay tuned!

That's a wrap on Super Secret Nintendo set part 1! Look, real building, fake skyline :) http://lockerz.com/s/104224860
Unfortunately, the currently shared pics don't show anything about what she is doing a shoot for (So I guess it is still a secret ;) ), but that doesn't mean we can't speculate.

Anyone have any guesses?

Picked the game up today, and am quite impressed. The visuals make it seem like a whole new experience, they are wonderful, and the 3D adds a nice touch to them (easily the most impressive 3D I've seen on NDS, it is so clean and vibrant). Nintendo did a great job with this, it in no way feels like a lazy port or remake. It would be nice to have some more extras, still the game is fantastic, looking forward to completing it again!

lol.  One of the comments is that Robin Williams should be Tingle in a Zelda movie.

Ugh. For all that Nintendo does that upsets and annoys me they can at the same time do something that makes me glad they are still around and why I stick with them. My copy of OoT arrived today and just finished up the Great Deku Tree. The game looks and plays great. I forgot how much I enjoyed playing it. The last time I played it was years ago and that was on the N64. This really is the type of full feature game I want on the system...need on the system. Being able to play this in my chair with my feet up while being able to look up at the TV now and then is the combination that really is ideal to me.

It is amazing how well the game holds up. Its gameplay has aged perfectly.

Pretty well said.  My copy arrived today and I feel pretty close to the same way.  While sometimes I kinda rub my head and wish Nintendo would do this or that better.  I honestly love them for games like this.  I know a lot of people are not happy with a remake or port of an older game.  I just haven't played Ocarina of Time since about 2001.  So it's been about a decade.  The game just holds up so wonderfully.   

Having such a great game, with a wonderful and long gameplay experience on my 3ds is just wonderful.   I distinctly remember playing Ocarina of Time when it came out.  Imagining how someday I would be able to play such games on a future gameboy or whatever.  Now I have the same game in my pocket, with some pretty darn wonderful remade textures and effects.  It just..  Makes me smile.

I'm already doing this for my own amusement, but I thought I'd mention it in here: I'm apparently live-tweeting my playthrough of this game. Mostly just sarcastic wise-ass comments. I'm @lordcorbran if anyone wants to follow along.

I played with this for a few minutes at my cousin's place. They really did a makeover of the graphics. The geometry and textures are much improved, at least in Kokiri Village.

The game is definitely an example of one that looks FAR better in motion, then in still pictures.

Over the years, I think people's memories have idealized how this game looks in their mind's eye. I played it a few years ago on the Gamecube special edition collection disc so it's a little more recent to me.

Almost any 3D game of that era looks rough now. As the Atari 2600 was to 2D, the Saturn, N64 and PS1 were to 3D.

This version actually looks as good as you nostalgically remember it looking. Probably a bit better than that, even.

It took me 60 hours and 31 minutes to finally complete this game. That includes both OOT 3D and the Master Quest. I had completed this game almost a week ago now so this post is a little late.  :-[

If I could only say one thing about the game it would be:
"The greatest game ever, just got better!"  ;D

The two things I wish they would have done was put in a Light Temple and make the enemies take more damage in the Master Quest.
