OoT remake for 3DS

[UchihaSasuke]

there's no way OoT is going to be a launch title or near launch game. it wasn't even shown at E3.
i'm betting it will be the big holiday 2011 title along Mario Kart 3DS.
also, OoT being a full remake was already confirmed so RBA is already dead.

it was shown at e3, just not a playable version, which i think 1 or 2 games were playable (star fox, and the steel diver thing (who wants that?)

[UchihaSasuke]

no it wasn't. it was actually leaked from a set of images nintendo prepared but didn't show at the event. people were even asking why it wasn't shown in the proper show.

[thundrio]

well, i know it was announced at nintendo's media (de)briefing after the show, i cant find a quote/source since im at school and 99.9% of the internet is blocked (i'm lucky i am likely the only person in my small town that knows of this site besides my friends), but miyamoto had the nintengirls with 3ds's strapped to them walk around to the press and some/all of them had oots opening looping. then miyamoto said something about how the water temple was too hard because of constantly switching the iron boots and they were gonna make it easier.

the leak happened a few hours before the briefing i believe (nintendo mistakenly put a kit on their site for a few hours before taking it down, dont know if it is back up). the pictures are now on reputable sites like ign.

when i get home i will post a source.

This is one of the more interesting screenshots.

Notice the Fairy Ocarina on the bottom left of the touch screen.

As a side note, 3DS will have Virtual Console focusing on the Gameboy games. Super Mario Land & Link's Awakening have been confirmed. Unlike the Wii the 3DS (atm) does not have any way of direct recording (unless you somehow got yourself a 3DS Dev kit).

Where did you find that picture and information?

a slew of information got announced in japan yesterday for 3ds. 300$ in japan (ouch...), comes out feburary for jap, and oot is coming next year (although im not clear on if its a launch title or not) high res screens without clutter on the top screen, woot (although it does make dot skip compeletely luck based if it is even still in which is defienately not.)

It looks to me like you can have 4 items equipped now, 2 to X and Y and then 2 to the 1 and 2 slots.

I'm really hoping they don't make it so you have to blow into the Mic to play the ocarina like in Spirit Tracks. I hated having to do that and sometimes my mic wouldn't recognize it properly.

[thundrio]

they will defienately have a different mechanic for ocarina since it would work the old way anymore.

lets hope its good. =)
