Ocarina of Time on VC this Monday

Posted Feb 24, 2007 at 09:44AM by Ryan A. Listed in: News, Virtual Console, Games Tags: Japan, Zelda, N64, AIAS, Wii Points

Japan has it. Australia, the Land Down Under, has it. America, on the other hand, has to make do with playing Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess-style. Well, not anymore.

Heads up, Zelda fans!

Ocarina of Time will be debuting this Monday, February 26, for 1,000 Wii Points. The N64 original, being considered by most a masterpiece, will finally be available for North American fans. It should be up and ready for download at 9 a.m. Pacific Time.

Ocarina of Time is actually the fifth game in The Legend of Zelda saga and was the firs one released on N64. The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences (AIAS) regarded it as 1999 Game of the Year.

Thanks Mattroid for the heads up!

Let's hope, that there will be an update for all the N64 games with rumble... Fpr Zelda you need the rumble pack to find some secrets.

Re: Mattroid - 2007-02-25

» hmm

true, but I'm almost sure that Nintendo had reported that there'd be no rumble feature :(

It costs 1200 points in Japan. Supposedly, it'll be 1000 in the US.
