Apr 26 2011, 12:06 PM IceCatraz Apr 25 2011, 10:24 AM I was wondering the same thing - I kind of want OOT to be released later on, to fully utilize the 3DS' power and such. But at the same time, I like, fucking want it now. I have no doubt that they could port over Gamecube or Wii titles - hell, I thought Street Fighter was done from the ground up, but it was actually ported and altered from the (360 version I think?) and optimized for the 3DS. If they can do that, I don't see why we can't have Wind Waker. Once the size limit is upped from 2 GB (which is hopefully soon), we might be seeing fully fledged enhanced ports from the Wii, and better optimized ports from the 360 and PS3. The cartridges actually have 8gb ( more than a 360's disc ) on them , nintendo put a 2gb cap on for some fucking weird reason . One problem with windwaker though : button mapping . sure , the touch screen can take most of the inventory but what about camera ? Only way I could see that working would be l targeting , which could work . Apparantlly nintendo did think about another circle pad for camera control , but decided against saying that camera control could be used by gyro . What ? not everyone wants to be constantly turning round to be able to see ! Oh I know - once the limit is lifted, we'll see more content. And I read about the whole gyro for analog, and while I don't buy the excuse, I'd like to see how that works. I'll probably be using it to start out with in OOT.

They're both considered analog inputs, but the pad doesn't have a stick, hence the lack of the word "stick" in it's name. @red - I don't think there'll be a major incentive at this point, other than actually getting the game. Ocarina of Time will ship in very limited numbers, apparently, so I'd pre-order it now if you want it launch date/launch week. I'm going to pre-order my copy on Amazon.com now. Edit Well, fucking what the hell. Greece is getting a shitload of things for Pre-ordering the title.. I'm not sure if it's through Amazon.com or whatever that those promotions are coming through, but ffs. Watch NoA give us something lame like a Deku Shoe. Edited by IceCatraz, May 5 2011, 11:04 PM.

(Temporarily closed. ...Gwaargh!) doo wee doo wee doo Posts: 3,617 Group: Sage Member #7,789 Joined: February 7, 2008 Gender Male	Wait, is that a real ocarina? 'Cause if that's not just for show, that's quality prizage there. 8-holes for a pre-order bonus? A cheap 4-holer would be more expected. Other than that and the pouch, some of that stuff ain't exactly... beautiful. I hate it when they just slap logos onto stuff (looking at the hat) :s

Yeah, they're Acacia seeds I believe. Pretty cool I guess, but it's still a bit tacky. Still though, I'd rather get something than nothing at all. I was hoping Amazon would do some kind of "Order 1, get 1 25% off" or something, but still nothing.

Koopa Posts: 99 Group: Koopa Member #13,665 Joined: March 28, 2011	The seeds are actually a pretty neat idea, and so is the hat. I like the case just for the artwork. Ocarina, not so much. The idea...yes, the product..no. Probably cheap plastic, and high notes would be..well...they probably wouldn't be pretty or easy to reach. Can get a decent plastic one from Songbird, if you really was interested. I have one and they are tricky at first. But so rewarding to actually be playing the songs. Plus, the one offered for the pre-order is only a 10 hole. With a 12 hole you get two small holes added on top that lets you play a bit lower as well as give you the ability to play flats, which some songs require.
