Slightly updated 3DS versions? I thought the music remained untouched?
Chariblaze said:Sorry, slightly updated is an overstatement. I meant slightly in the sense that since the music is generated in realtime on the systems, and since they are different systems, they couldn't have the exact same sequence of sounds. Everything had to be recreated. Apparently, the quality has also been slightly enhanced.
Try looking at pages 2, 3, and 4 of this Iwata Asks interview.
According to that, there is a song that is orchestrated, so that is new.
La Dispute said:FlamingDriscoll09, it was not present in the Nintendo 64 version either. It was only present in the gold color cartridge version of Ocarina of Time.
Zelda Wiki said:There are three different versions of game cartridges: 1.0 (NUS-CZGE-USA), 1.1 (NUS-CZLE-USA), and 1.2 (NUS-CZLE-USA-1). The differences are minor, but include cartridge color (1.1 and 1.2 are gray, 1.0 can be gold or gray) and the swordless glitch in 1.0 that was fixed in 1.1. Also from version 1.0 to version 1.1, a glitch where you could steal the fishing pole was removed. From version 1.1 to 1.2 the color of Ganon's blood was changed from red to green. Minor glitches in the Twinrova fight scene were corrected. In-game elements relating to Muslim culture, such as the background music of the Fire Temple (which included a choir that Nintendo felt resembled a holy Muslim chant), as well as the emblem on the Mirror Shield (whose design was a crescent moon and a star, also a symbol associated with Islamic culture), were altered in version 1.2 to avoid offending Muslims.[58] The shield design was changed in the GameCube version. The symbol is also seen on other more minor objects such as blocks. In each subsequent version until 1.2, some very minor pieces of dialog were re-translated.
All Japanese cartridges for the Nintendo 64 are version 1.0. In North America, all three versions were released (in fact, all gold cartridges were 1.0). In Europe, only 1.1 and 1.2 were available. The Virtual Console release seems to be 1.2, once again with the emblem change from GCN versions.

Luckily it's first person so I don't have to see his face very much
