This guy is remaking Ocarina of Time in 2D, Top-Down view, it's gonna awesome when he finally finishes it. Check it out, you guys'll probably enjoy it.

[Mockery]

That does look nice, I assume it's gonna be for the SNES?

[Gurlugon]

Yeah, the screenshots make it look like it'll be an .IPS patch for Link to the Past.

EDIT: Dammit, nevermind; the site says this:

"This site is dedicated to my Link to the Past style, 2D remake of Ocarina of Time for the PC... enjoy!"

[ProfessorCool]

It will just be a program, you won't need an emulator or nothing.

The engine they are using in the demos is pretty good.

Although a game as big as Ocarina of Time is going to take a hell of alot of time, hopefully by next year.

[Matt Harty]

Well they must be making good progress if they already made forums for majoras mask and wind waker.

[The Unseen]

Wow, this is the best thing I've seen all week. ::thumbs-up::

[DamnthatDavid]

awesome, I want that for GBA, so that I might enjoy the fun while on the road.

[HickMan]

Wow. This is fucking brilliant.

[liquidstatik]

That looks awesome! :D

[Mockery]

The demo plays perfectly, so this is definitely gonna rox0rz.

[eggyolk]

:party

[ProfessorCool]

I hope it's free to play, even if not, I think i could shell out a few bucks.

[Mockery]

There's no way they could charge for it without getting sued up the ass by Nintendo. Well, I suppose they could do the old "Pencil for sale (with free copy of 2D-Zelda!)" eBay trick and get away with it. :P

[ProfessorCool]

that's what i was thinking, or have to pay to register to the site, and one of the perks is a "free game".

[Comrade Rocket]

I wonder how he is going to do the Young Link/ Adult Link transition?

[Drev]

MAGIC! :eek

I want to see a Majora's mask version.

[Ghost of Fraiser]

I wonder how he is going to do the Young Link/ Adult Link transition?

Adult link will have a longer nose.

[Esuohlim]

I wonder how you'll be able to get Fire Arrows. You can't shoot into the sun in a 2D game.

[Drev]

Well, how I see it can be done is where you shoot the sun, it'll shot light fromt he sun comming up, so you shoot directly at that, and there you go.

[Command Prompt]

more or less. Here is a picture that answers the question.

[Esuohlim]

THERE AREN'T ANY PYRAMIDS AT HYLIA LAKE :rolleyes

[eggyolk]

Notice the sun in the background. >: >:

[HickMan]

That dosn't change the fact that there aren't any pyramids in lake hylia

[ScruU2wice]

i bet it's gonna be a little bit harder to switch between night and day in 2d

[eggyolk]

I showed this to my friend and he said he will donate 10 dollars. :/

Nerd. :lol :lol

[That Guy]

this looks awesome..I'd buy it

[Emu]

Why buy it when it's free?

[Anonymous]

Am I the only one that wasn't impressed? :<

[Ghost of Fraiser]

no i agree, you can't d-d-d-d-d-d-dance to it.

[whoreable]

I just saw this as well

[A.S.H.]

Wow, just wow, that's cool

[Chun Li]

Someone should really re make the wind waker......cell shaded graphics are great and all but not in zelda!

[Supafly345]

Chun-li, no way!! Hey, do some of you infamous kicks for us. Wierd how fictional video-game characters keep popping up as users in this forum. Amazing really!

[ArrowX]

seein gthis thrad makes me wish that Nintendo would Ressurect the SNES 32-bit games r where its at!

[camacazio]

I agree, the SNES was the best 32-bit system ever.

[Nerd]

I've seen this before. It sounds cool but I doubt the 3D puzzles and environments would translate well into 2D. It also sounds like one of those projects that people talk about for a long time but never finish.

[CastroMotorOil]

chojin i as well was not overly impressed, i don't see how 2d is going to make a great game any better.

[ArrowX]

Maybe for the 3D puzzles theyll just have those rooms where you had to thodge tose DAMN floor tiles or hit stiches oo simply paste them on the floor

i'm im a mood to start a petition to bring back 32-bit consoles...

Nintendo would rule all others theyd just shoot out a newcartrige system like NES2K or something

[camacazio]

Ok, I was being sarcastic before, but come on, you moron. The SNES is 16-bit.

[Supafly345]

I am laughing out loud.

[Cap'n Crunch]

GBA is already 32 bit. :rolleyes So is Playstation. :rolleyes
