I played it, didn't like it. The time mechanic was one of my favorites and I just loved the atmosphere, but after awhile I just stopped playing it.

It's funny that you mention this, though, I bought an N64 at a local antique gaming shop and got Ocarina of Time with it. I just beat the water temple. Isn't that supposed to be the hardest temple in any zelda game?
Hardest in the series? No. Most annoying in the series? If you don't count the original game, Most definitely.

I'd say the honor of hardest dungeon in the series goes to the Ice Palace in A Link to the Past. The developers did a few things with the dungeon that can only be classified as dick moves.

I still have my copy on my N64 - I love the this game! The fourth temple is awesome, but tough.

Meh, I played this a while back, it annoyed me. Too little explanation! Heck, even getting past the intro bits was a pain in the bum.

Wow that video made Majora's Mask look better than the one's I've played, Wind Waker and Twilight princess.

Actually, I feel like cracking out my Game Cube and playing Twilight prin....

If I didn't have my old 64, I would be more than ecstatic about this. Very nice move, Nintendo.

Now, if they could just work on Earthbound....

Great! I didn't know the game was already available for PAL... Now I can own it once again (I even have that crappy Collector's Edition version that didn't work right...)

*flaunts his Expansion pack and golden cartridge*

Anyway, I loved all the different masks and their effects...I always kept wearing the Garo mask...everywhere.

Only thing the bugged me was the time mechanic. Now, don't get me wrong, it was neat, but annoying...thank god for the reversed Song of Time.

The only things I remember about Majora's Mask was that the time system confused me, and the female dancers who had upskirts. Ahh, to be 8 again.

Holy crap, this runs so much better than the Gamecube version it's not even funny.

Also, the great fairy in North Clock Town has orange hair instead of pink. Is this like how all the Gerudo emblems were changed to be less Islamic in re-releases of Ocarina of Time or how all the crosses were removed from Mother in localization? Is there some pink-haired people group that takes offense at being portrayed as magical fairies that live in doomed cities? I guess my novel "Pink Haired Fairies of Pompeii" is going to need a serious rewrite.

Hahaha, nah the fairies have different coloured hair, one of them's pink, can't remember which one though.

I'd get it, but I still have a fully functional Nintendo 64, so there wouldn't really be much point. Nice to know they're adding more major games though.

I really loved Majora's Mask. I thought it was just as good as the other Zeldas, and should have been treated justly by the masses. That fourth temple, that was a killer. And how cool was it to see the water pipes and actual technology in the third temple? I think that was my first experience with steampunk. If it can be considered that.
