I feel the demo is only Kokiri forest + Deku tree because the player cannot leave the forest... having Goron City and DC be the demo would mean they would have to put up a bunch of blockades / make loading zones not work, etc, to make sure people cant go exploring in the demo.
here is a new video (i am sure tons of videos will pop up today and tomorrow from different reviewers but im too busy tonight to go searching.)
http://www.ign.com/videos/2011/01/20/zelda-ocarina-of-time-looking-better-than-ever
one thing i have noticed that i hope they change is navi text, atm they have the navi text in the center bottom of the main screen in white text blinking whenever you need to chat with her (including enemy lock ons), this seems like it would be annoying so hopefully it will be changed.

some changes:
"Return" is now "Back"
"Item Select" is now "Items"
"Equipment" and "Quest Status" is now one screen: "Gear"

Hell yeah I can't wait to spend $250 to get my cutscene dialogue in 3D.

seriously... I don't expect these guys to be whipping out baba megasidehops... but I was hoping they'd at least... you know.... know how to play the game. lol

I'd rather not... There's still the slight chance that Nintendo still doesn't know about it and hasn't fixed it yet
Alright, after watching a couple OoT 3DS vids I've found 2 really interesting things:
1. After shooting the ladder in the slingshot room, the cutscene is only like 1 second long. So pretty much, running staight to the ladder's base still works.
2. Dialogue has been changed a good bit, at least in the cutscene after beating Deku Tree.
Watch at 2:56 in this video, the Deku Tree's words are totally different:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOnSWnDxAdA
On second thought... it's probably changed for the demo only.
"But let us end our story here for now"
EDIT:
3. In the 3DS software lineup video, you can see Link jump off of the Zora Domain waterfall WITHOUT doing a swan dive. Perhaps the swan dive has been removed, which could lead to megajumping the gerudo bridge if megajumping works...

Rofl that dude looked like such a retarded douchebag in Gohma's Demo !

just my thoughts on this. 1) isg/power crouch stab are so well known(1 of them even fixed in mm), that if nintendo did a simple google search for "zelda ocarina of time glitches" they would find almost everything important (considering the first glitch listed on the first link for that google search is bomb hover), so we live by their grace. also the developers are most likely not at this event watching the people demo the game, so the only people to see it would be pr reps that wouldnt know an oot glitch if they saw vine clip to bombchus being done.

im not sure but i believe in a video from a while back i saw link swan diving in zd, but i might be wrong. i will check when i get home from school. its also possible that swan dive isnt working atm because of some programming mess up (like missing a bracket lolol).

Its a swan dive, the animation just looks retarded now.
Quote1) isg/power crouch stab are so well known(1 of them even fixed in mm),
The original Japanese release of MM did have Power Crouch stab.
But if Nintendo tweaked the graphics (boxes and hud) on GC which was after N64 MM, how come they did not fix the Power Crouch Stab on that release?
Edit:
Sound directly recorded
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOnSWnDxAdA
Note how the aiming is reversed when using the circle pad compared to the N64 original
Original: N64 is inverted (Holding Up = Aiming downwards)
Update: 3DS is normal (Holding Up = Aiming upwards)

hrm, i hope they offer the option to use inverted since i'm used to that and can't use the opposite aiming.

2. Dialogue has been changed a good bit, at least in the cutscene after beating Deku Tree.
i am not sure this is a good example of how much it has changed, as they ended the demo at that point, so they might have changed the text to make it a better stopping point for ending the demo.

$250 seems an awful lot for a handheld console, thats nearly 3x more than GBA and more than what a Wii was. It's even worse for us poor folks in Europe as it's retailing for £220 ($365), and thats before you consider the costs of the games and possible internet connectivty functions. I don't have any problems affording it, but I don't feel desperate and impatient enough to stretch to these sums of money.
Europe always gets shafted by prices :(

Michael Pachter thinks the current price in the US is just too cheap. http://3ds.nintendolife.com/news/2011/01/pachter_nintendo_should_charge_more_for_3ds
@Mitjitsu
Pre-order it at Shopto.net for £199.99 saving £20 which is barely no where near cheaper than the US price :(
My only worry is pretty much the launch titles out on day 1. No notable 1st party title for the hardcore gamer(s).
that sounds like gamestop bsing out dates for a bunch of stuff so they can get people to preorder from them. i really doubt thats a real list, seeing as how there are 3 games set to come out BEFORE the 3ds launches (Wtf)
yeah that could be the case, just posted it because kotaku seemed to think it was legit.
There is this line:
There is this line:
QuoteThe Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for 3DS was specifically confirmed as a June 2 street date. All other games' dates are tentative and unconfirmed by their publisher.
the Wii was $250 at launch so the 3DS ties it. i'm expecting $300 in my country (the wii had that price)
i still wouldnt trust kotaku as a site, besides gamestop wants as many preorders as possible, so putting a specific release for possibly the biggest 3ds game out would be in their best interest. also there is the fact that june 2 2011 is a thursday, which i have never heard of a game coming out then (nintendo usually releases stuff on sunday)
well, the gamestop dates were just placeholders since they can't just put "TBA" forever.
but i find weird that the game is still that far away since it looks to be just a slightly improved port.
but i find weird that the game is still that far away since it looks to be just a slightly improved port.
i dont think it is a slightly improved port, and the only reason we think it is that is because nintendo is literally shown us the tutorial of the game and nothing else. i believe that it will have something added (new dungeon of w.e.) simply because nintendo has kept the wraps on it for so long, and it is so far out.
I would really appreciate if Nintendo would add those old lost dungeons to OoT this time! Example Light Temple and maybe other new stuff too. That would make OoT even more better.
Thumbs up guys! ^_^
