3DS OoT Intro Video

http://ds.ign.com/

I really wasn't that impressed the music still brings that special chill but it doesn't look that great

dude thats not in 3d in your hands..

im sure it will be most impressive.

I wish they added HD sounds.

From that video, I'm starting to believe it will have more jaggies and less framerate than the original N64 version :?

Really? I thought it l looked great.

Looks great, although I do wish they'd have touched up the graphics more. The only thing I kind of miss is the heavy atmosphere/foggy effectin the original game. Gave it personality.

Water is RLY bugging me. Like i've mentioned a bunch of times. Its a ROM "hack" of the original game. Doesn't mean it will be bad tho.

Yeah I guess the hardware could do better but it really looks good enough for me. I'm probably going to get a 3DS way before June 19th so I just have to find something else to play before Oot comes out.

Here's a video comparison of the original intro and the 3DS intro.

Im just glad that 3ds will offiaclly stop those 2d zelda games and those toon link games. Knowing they can put Oot in makes me feel better on what they can do for now on. Like they can actually but twilight princess on here if they wanted to lol (would of been cool if it came with Oot)

i spent the first 40 seconds thinking "you sure that's not the original intro?" then i spent the rest of the video thinking "you sure that's not the original intro, but with link and epona's new models?" i'd take it as a bad sign :/BrunoBRS

It has me scared. Sure those pics looked great but that was...

It weould of been better if they kept the color but made it HD...

I really liked the dark colors from the old one.

Overall it looks a lot better but some of the textures, like the cliff face, look better in the old one. The brown rock wall just looks... bland. I think the fog was just there in the old one to overcome the draw distance limitations but it definitely added to the atmosphere.TankZorz

whats wrong with you guys? your missing the bigger picture, this is one of the best Zelda games, second to Link's awakening on the SNES to exist, i'd be happy with a straight N64 port, but we're getting it polished touched up and in 3D, its gonna be epic!

it's an updated port of an N64 game....this isn't built from the ground up

if it was then it'd look better than it does now, but that'd also take way more time to develop and way more money

just look at all those HD ports of n64 games on the 360...banjo games, perfect dark, etc....those have updated visuals, but nothing 360 game wise

like i said...this game looks phenomenalcompared to it's N64 counterpart and will look even better on the tiny 3DS screen....i really don't know what everyone here was expecting

Improved textures and character models (kinda obvious), better sky/cloud/moon textures, the moon actually has a glow around it now, they added flower sprites to the field, improved trees (you can make out the individual leaves instead of a blocky mess), the torches on the castle have a glow around them now, water seems more transparent and has a more detailed and faster moving animated texture, they replaced the ugly rock/tree boundary sprites, death mountain actually looks like a 3D model instead of a pre-rendered backdrop, they toned down the distant fog, it has a further draw distance, and the dead trees at the end have quite a bit more polys.

They seem to have touched it up quite a bit.

Nintendo rly shouldnt have outsourced this game to Grezzo.

Guys, this is just the background video playing behind the start screen logo. It's not exactly supposed to enthrall you. It's not a trailer.jedinat

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="jedinat"] Maybe they should have added bushes. Did you want bushes?jedinat

as in these:

I'm not seeing a huge graphical difference here. This is seeming more and more like a cheap ploy for Nintendo to sell more 3DS's.

@BrunoBRS: You'll have to iterate your point more clearly.

^ my point is they could have used better textures, because they did (even if they went for textures so realistic and bright it's offsetting). they could have done better than what they did in the intro trailer/hyrule field, and all it took was a higher-res texture file, which is changing just a single line of code and replacing an image file.BrunoBRS

To be fair the Hyrule field is a lot bigger than the areas you posted. They probably tiled the **** out of that grass texture already. I doubt they're just being lazy.

The problem is that Nintendo outsourced the game to Grezzo who isnt that great of a developer

They have only developed one game(?!) We don't know anything about this firm except that the CEO worked on the Mana and FF games. I kinda like the idea that Nintendo is handing down work to other companies while they're busy working on Project Café (too much N6 rumours for me I guess...)
