I literally own four copies of this game, and could, for a few Nintendo Points, conceivably purchase a fifth separate version.
How has Nintendo done this to us? How have we allowed them to continually repackage the same game over and over, marketing it to us in a slightly different way?"
Nintendo's classic action-adventure game, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is set to receive a fanmade port for the Sega Dreamcast.
The official creator of the Super Mario Bros. manga, Kazuki Motoyama, has passed away at the age of 69.
Fixed the headline for you...

Gary Green said: Being a writer exclusively for PlayStation is immensely rewarding, yet it does have its drawbacks. It was easy enough to distance myself from the ever decreasing number of Xbox exclusives, yet parting ways with Nintendo was hard, and it only got harder over time. Sooner or later, I knew I'd be back, and as I frantically search for the most efficient and cost-effective ways to play the Nintendo classics which I've missed out on over the years, revisiting the best of the best comes first.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time came out during a time where every console had its charms. Whether you were team Sega, Nintendo, or Sony, everyone knew the game's potential, and the players who invested in Nintendo's chunky N64 console were not disappointed. Like Sega's ill-fated Saturn, it may have been a console which lacked in quantity of games, but the quality was certainly there.
Ocarina of Time was a game that was hard to put down. We would bounce home excitedly from high school, ready to wander the lands of Hyrule once again to find another secret or two, before preparing ourselves to tackle that next intimidating dungeon. It's time to retell this story. Ready your ocarina.
Yes, this is one of the true masterpieces that I believe every core gamer should play.
It even holds up to this day.
Nintendo makes them a completely new experience.
*shakes fist at Nintendo*
How do they get us over and over again! :P
not many people did buy this rerelease
zing!
Most of nintendo's games have everlasting gameplay, so why not release them for another generation of people to play, besides people ask for them to be remade, isnt that why the ps3 get ps2 and psp releases also
Because we get to play those great games on our current generation consoles when we might not have the old technology to do so. I mean sure we could just use on emulator on our PC's... but that.. would.. be..... hmmm.
