It seems that some footage of OoT 3D has finally come around! Check out the video for a look. (Skip to about 1:20 to view the actual gameplay.)
Looks exciting! I’m still on edge waiting for it (even though I’m more into Skyward Sword.)

Just a general update regarding a few pieces of news from around the block. First off is…
Minish
The Minish Cap guide has been updated, and now takes you through the third dungeon. Have fun with that, and be sure to thank Michael! You can view it on The Minish Cap Guide page. Next up, we have…
Manga
As many sites around the community have been boasting about, the “original” Legend of Zelda manga has finally been translated into English. Overall, it’s one of the better mangas, at least in our opinion. It goes quite deep into the theme of the original Logend of Zelda game, but it also deviates from the plotline quite a bit. That could be a plus or minus, depending on where you stand on the canon. Either way, I nabbed and colorized an awesome piece of art from it, seen to the right. You can check out the site it’s hosted on (called BerriBlue) here. And still more news is…
Kakashi
Though not ready yet, we’ve made good headway on the demo engine. Keep in mind that when our release comes, you won’t see much; the engine is essentially the core of the game, involving the character’s coding, movement, etc. The rest wiull start to come along soon once we get over this hump. Once again, we apologize for the wait, but know that we’ve been very busy. Though it’s unlaunched, I can tell you all that we’re working on a seperate website to specifically cover the game. More news soon! And finally, we have the…
Pegasus Boots
To cut to the chase, our site’s been growing in both traffic and size. Unfortunately, this has resulted in a longer load time added to our already long load time. So after a few cuts (we promise you won’t know the difference!), we’ve been able to reduce our load time by an average of about 40%! Overall, we’re quite excited about this, as it makes the world a more friendly place! In the future we hope to cut down the load times even more. Thanks for checking us out!
It seems that the famed “Speed Gamers” are taking this summer to play some Zelda. They’ll be showing nightly streams of Zelda goodness throughout the month of July. Being the caring people that they are, these nightly sessions will benefit the Autism Care and Treatment Today foundation.
However, this is working out a little differently than you might think. The ACT Today! is participating in the Pepsi Refresh Project for their funding. So they’re going to be playing Zelda and telling you to vote for the ACT Today! foundation in the project for the prize of $250,000 worth of funding.
Don’t miss the marathon on their site, and don’t forget to vote! Help procure funding for treating children with autism. Remember: Every vote counts, and this money could help a lot of children.
Until next time, faithful followers!

With the passing of E3, everyone knows about how we saw Ocarina of Time 3D and Skyward Sword. Both games have been highly anticipated for QUITE some time, and it seems that expectations are high for both. But this begs the question: Which game are the fans anticipating more?
You could argue that the release of both will bring Nintendo a lot more revenue, but you also have to take into account the average audience of the series. Most of the fans are kids without a steady income. If Nintendo releases both at the same time, they may be forced to choose, causing a somewhat smaller sale rate.
If you had to make this choice, which would you buy? Skyward Sword or Ocarina of Time 3D? Leave a comment and tell us what you think!
After quite a few debates for the last 18 or so hours, we can finally announce that it’s official; There will be an Ocarina of Time remake for the 3DS. To the right, you’ll see the final image which we’ve uncovered (though none of these pics are really “special secrets” anymore). However, we must let some of the hopes dwindle a bit; It’s not confirmed that it will be the full version of “Ocarina of Time”. Nintendo is still playing around with it, and using it to test the functionality of the system.
According to Kotaku, Ocarina of Time 3D is “like a few other 3DS titles shown off so far is merely a tech demo for the new hardware”. However, it sound like the head honchos at the big “N” are so desiring to have this full game on the NIntendo 3DS, so maybe it will come true. You can view the official news on Nintendo’s E3 site. Once there, click on “Nintendo Titles”.
We hope that you’re still excited, as we sure are. Also, as a side-note, if Ocarina of Time does make it to the 3DS, we’ll be covering the game right here, at Zelda in my Pocket.
