  • AHHH THE NOSTALGIA.

  • Best title theme of all time ?

  • But...there's no start button on this keyboard

    ::cries::

  • Changing the meaning of what a video game is entirely. Ocarina of time is not a game, but an EXPERIENCE!

  • I was 8 when i used to play this with my uncle.I use to think that Link was Zelda until my uncle told me who was who but now that I'm older, I can beat Ganon awsome form!

  • i can't explain in words the deep emotions that this song brings to mind. i went back as a teen and finally finished the game thoroughly (who finishes things as kids anyway?). and i must say, i cried a deep, inward cry of life and happiness at the end scene.

  • 90`s :`( BEST TIME EVER

  • I heard the galloping of epona in the back of my head

  • Damn, this game was the shit. now people play this cod bullcrap.

  • "PRESS STAR" best words ever

  • I love this. I miss the good old days

  • i still have it for nintendo 64 and Majora's mask :)

  • holy nostalgia.....

  • @dmdollinar08 Indeed...

  • best loz game ever

  • damn good game still rem playing this at 4! i swear to god that young. and i started with comp at 3 no joke.. memory's.... sad

  • I like how they got it from the flute ditty in Legend of Zelda, which is also used in Super Mario Bros. 3

  • This music basically says to me "This game is going to be something special" All it takes is hearing this song to make me want to play it again

  • @MattDel1 Matt, I so agree with you...I wish I had the game to play it again...

  • I catch myself whistling this all the time.

  • @Lunarvx22 I wish I can whistle...or else I'd be doing the same thing lol. XD

  • Honestly I don't understand why OOT is so popular. Granted, I played it in 2003, but I've since played many other early 3D games that I missed and I still enjoyed them. OOT...not so much.

  • @RaggaeOfFunk Its all about the ostalgy

  • i have the LoZ for a FUNCTIONING NES! you can have alot of fun with a D-pad and A and B buttons!

  • dammit i miss this game, life was less dark when i played the hell out of it!

  • Koji Kondo: Fuckin' genius

    Thanks God

  • This game is so epic that even the TITLE THEME is epic.

  • @garomastervideos IKR! Everything about this game screams epic...

  • This game was amazing. I remember playing it when I was like, 3-4. I thought, "This music is amazing". At age 8, I was a gamecube fanatic, and my gamecube broke. :( So I went to put my gamecube away, and I found my N64 next to the garbage. My mother said I didn't use it, so she would throw it away. So I picked my N64, and still in the actual system, was my freaking LoZ OoT. Nostalgia hit me. HARD. =D I'm 14, and I'll never forget the N64. Never.

  • @Ninjastyle124 Did you keep the N64?!?

  • @rewkol Yep.

  • this brings back so many memories

  • - PRESS START -

    to change your Life

  • @erikmuench Excellent comment Erik. I mean it. The game did in fact change my life for the better good. =D Without it, It would of definitely felt like something was missing...

  • @erikmuench The best part is that thats not even a joke 

  • gives me the chills like none other

  • I bought this used about 4-5 years ago expecting a good game. What I got was the best game I have ever played. This game converted me to full blown Zelda fan.

  • i will never forget this game. The BEst game ever made. The perfect game at the perfect time. Thank You Shigeru Miyamoto. Ur ideas, turn out into this.

  • im gona buy this game from ebay should i or should i not :OO

  • @SophiaVIP It would really be shameful not to.

  • @SophiaVIP

    I don't know....

    Have you considered the 3ds version?

  • God I hate this game. I never got an N64 as a kid. I played the original Zelda for the NES first, then Wind Waker for the GC, then this with the Master Quest edition. As much as I wished I liked this game, I don't. I enjoyed watching my Dad playing through it, but I will never complete this game.

  • @TheKaradom I'm sorry to hear that...It really is an amazing game..

  • @TheKaradom I like this game as the base for the other 3D Zeldas that followed it, but I will admit, it is kinda overrated. I feel that people just love it for the nostalgia value. For me, that goes to Wind Waker.

  • When after ragequiting u restarded this theme always made sure u calmed down :3

  • My first girlfriend wasn't so much into gaming..she didn't know many games, including Ocarina of Time. But the best was that she actually liked a lot when I introduced them to her...but she wouldn't play, only watch me. And I used to translate the texts, since we're Brazilian and she didn't know any English..and I used to perform the characters..with intonations and stuff.. We were both constantly high, and a bit drunk.. And we were happy and didn't know =~ lol

  • this song made me cry :')

  • I can't remember the day I first heard this tune, since a day that special cannot exist on this planet anymore.

  • I remember the old days, back when I was a kid and this game came out. It was the greatest game I had ever played and it stuck with me, I still play it now, be it on the N64 or 3DS. It took away most of those boring hours stuck inside the house on a rainy day, I always gathered food and a drink, covered myself in a blanket and played for the whole day. I felt almost sad when I finally beat Ganon. But it never stopped me from starting again.

    Ah.. Good times.

  • well, that comparably obvious choice was uploaded pretty late :D

  • Alot of this game's music seems recycled and cleaned up in a beautiful way like do you notice in Zora's Domain it sounds like in some parts like World 3 in Super Mario Bros. 3 and the Warp Whistle in part of the theme and that is what is why i personally love Nintendo because they can do that and make it still sound crisp and Brand new and in this case Beautiful :)

  • Nostalgia

  • @SupraDarky You know this theme should be like, number 1000 or 1500 or something, not 945 :p that's just too damn random for one of the most recognized intros in gaming history :D Anyways, I bet you have total control on what's gonna be number 1000 :)

  • goosebumps... all i can say... makes me wanna play it all over again, even though i played the whole game, found all the secrets a dozen times

  • I remember playing the Gamecube version of this at a friend's house, am I worthy to say that? <:(

  • i was 5 when this came out... Naturally my parents wouldnt buy me an N64. However my friend had one, and what are friends for? MOOCHING! I went over basically every day and played this game, then later got it on my gamecube with the masterquest. I love this game :)

  • I just got this for the 3ds and wow the graphics are impressive. I was afraid they'd make it all WW-ey and shit but they did a good job making it look new while staying close to the source material. Too bad I can't see the 3d :( goddamn lazy eye

  • @RazzWas Then get your eyes fixed with laser surgery. :O

    It just that that kind of surgery can cost up to 2000 dollars, but you will be like new forever. :D

  • Just nostalgia'd all over my pants.

  • I'm 14 and i wanna be 6 again... :c

  • The 3ds version of Ocarina of Time is phenomenal.

  • Great time to be an 8 year old when this game was released.

  • 12 years ago, no way in hell, I cant beleive its been that long... man I wish I was 15 again :*(

  • MAN, those 2 dislikers must be stuck in the water temple or something... how does somebody don't like this theme, or game?

  • I started crying. I love this game so much.

  • One word: Mesmerizing

  • This was a good day to upload this song with it coming out for the 3DS. I smell more than a coincidence. Great Song keep up the good work!

  • Oh, the memories. Thank you for this.

  • It took me about 10 years to realize this song is the flute song from Mario 3, never played Zelda 1, unfortunately...

    Beautiful song :D

  • the nostalgia right now is overwhelming... i might just cry

  • who the hell disliked this....

  • @rogue8000 A troll.

    Or a Moblin.

  • I lovet this theme so much...I was waiting for you to include it in your VGM count ^^

  • Heh, so many times I booted up this game just to hear this melody. An instant wave of nostalgia, memories, and that peace-inducing element music can so magically wield would swash over.

  • One person just had to be "THAT guy".....

    There is no way that anyone could hate this game or the songs in it. This is possibly the most epic and groundbreaking game ever made. Love it.

  • 1 person is just an asshole ¬¬

  • awesome souce!

  • This game was good...never really beat it, but it was good. My favorite Zelda will always be A Link to the Past. I've beaten that game like three times and can play it again if I wanted. Ocarina of Time was good, but I'd rather two new games than have to spend money for a 3DS and the game again.

  • In my opinion, the Zelda series are the only series from Miyamoto that are truly special, even moreso than some of the Mario RPGs.

    I guess it's because it's like an RPG, but isn't. It's got it's own originality, but with a traditional setting. Also, the songs on the Ocarina for Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask were really unique. I love Zelda! :D

  • I actually liked Link's Awakening more, but I think this is my second favorite, and Oracles is my third.

    This was definitely a really good game with a fantastic ending though. The fight with Ganon had so much atmosphere for such an old game, that it felt real. This is certainly one of those games that was ahead of it's time. :)

    Oh, I almost forgot the remake! I wonder how much better the graphics look on the 3DS.

  • @AkumaUchitoru

    Link's Awakening doesn't get the recognition it deserves. I've considered it my favorite in the series from time to time

  • Now I really wonder what epic song you choose for #1000!

  • Another contender for a x00 theme!

    I'm wondering, is it really worth it to get this game on the 3DS? I mean, for all the gamers who already played this game before, they probably already possess it. Is it just for a reason to play the game again? On my part, if I wanted to play it again, I'll just pop-up my N64 cart, and play on my tv. Improved graphics? Ok, maybe...

    I assume this re-release is meant for younger players that didn't have the chance to play it, which would be an honorable goal.

  • @pelletier1986 Boss refights, Master Quest; yeah, I think you should at least consider it.

  • @EvilMariobot

    You're right, these are cool features.

    Worth 300$+ ? Not really for me... I have no plan whatsoever to buy a 3DS soon. I understand your point though. These little extra might be worth a lot for some hardcore fans.

    The only real upside I see is being able to play this anywhere, and I'm not really into handheld console...

  • i got a n64444444444444444444 OOT for 30 pound yesterday so what's the point

  • @paulgregs2006 both for 30 pound

  • WIN!!! :D

  • I'm think about buying this game only cause OoT have come out.

    It disappointed me a little that they didn't remake the music though. Even if it wouldn't turn out so well, we would still see that they are trying

  • @coollein Heed my warning: music remakes are seldom any good. If either the original music is years old or the composer changes, the outcome will not be worth of any nostalgia. Ever tried to look for Zelda music that was from the game? No hope as the orchestrated versions have saturated the market. It is very difficult when the composers themselves tend to favour the "cleaner" orchestrated versions over the original soundtracks. It is good consistency to keep the old music with the remake.

  • @fingrid We will always have the original soundtrack in the original game. I'm a musician myself and I really like when they remake music, sometimes they make the songs even more impressive and epic, and sometimes they fail.

    Just adding to the quality of the classic ones would make me happy, but re-using the original OST isn't ok

  • I'm shocked this wasn't in the 944 VGM tracks you already put up.

  • If I had to choose one game and one console to play at a abandoned island I would choose Ocarina Of Time and the N64.

  • Just out of curiosity Darky. What age are you?

  • The theme of my childhood :]

  • The best videogame ever made. And I'm playing it right now.

  • inspirational, really, your descriptions are intense.

  • Never really liked the theme itself, but it sure reminds me of a great, great game.

  • @HulkHoganfan89 Yup. This and Majora's Mask where for the 64. Still great games too if you can find them.

  • I've read people say in the comments that this theme comes from SMB3's whistle theme. I guess that's true in a way, but some people are forgetting that SMB3's whistle theme itself comes from the first Zelda's flute theme. So this melody truly was made for Zelda, not Mario. ;P

  • @SupraDarky This is actually my favorite Ocarina of Time song, probably because of all the memories it brings back of when I was younger.

  • I never got a chance to play this, and as stubborn as I am, I refuse to play games on emulators IF I never played them on the actual console. Tomorrow, I'm getting my 3DS, and my first game? This

  • @Massacretalitor i got it.when i opened it,i had an epic wave of nostalgia...

  • @Massacretalitor Buying that game was the best descision of your entire life

    

  • @Massacretalitor its only the best game ever made, considering its time obviously

  • @Massacretalitor How is it?

  • @TheGamerGForever It's pretty good, gotta admit, but I haven't made it all that far yet. Just defeated the King Dodongo, haven't had that much time to play due to all kinds of shit going in real life. Yea, I'm kinda frustrated and don't feel like playing videogames... not now at least.

  • @Massacretalitor epic mind orgasm.

  • @Massacretalitor >playing it on 3ds

    >go play it on n64, use an emulator if you must

    it's not the same without the horrifying experience of the water temple

  • @Massacretalitor oh how i envy you for getting to play this epic game for the first time. if i could wipe my memory of playing it and play it again for the first time, oh how happy i'd be. =D

  • @Massacretalitor you could buy it on virtual console, if you have a wii

  • one of the best games ever made. period.

  • it feels like i'm getting sucked into the screen

  • "PRESS START"

    Nah

  • Best game ever, period! That first battle with a Stalfos, strafing around it, launching a jumping sword attack, then back-flipping out of a counter!!! EPIC

    Z-targeting FTW

  • 0:12 ummm.... did anyone hear the warp whistle sound from super mario bros 3 there?

  • @TheMarioluigifans actually this theme is the slow-mo version of the warp theme from SMB3

  • @Korezawr Which itself was borrowed from Zelda 1's whistle theme.

  • OMG! Old times. *-*

  • i want the remake now :O

  • Such a beatiful music, the only reason i bought 3DS and I gotta say the remake is amazing :P

  • The one for Nintendo 64 is really fun. Glad I was able to win the original N-64 version on Listia. I hope to get a 3DS for my birthday so I can get Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the 3DS.

  • good game buts its way overrated due to nostalgia factor

  • @yaktr12 Definitely not.

  • @DrRhythmStyx OoT is a great game, my 5th favorite game of all time, 2nd favorite Zelda game, but it is definitely the most overrated Zelda game.

  • @TheCrazyNintendoFan Definitely not. See that 'definitely not' is my OPINION. You sound stupid and childish when you state things like that. An example of a fact would be 'you have embarrassed yourself by trying to state an opinion'.

  • @DrRhythmStyx Definitely. See that "definitely" is MY opinion, and I never said your opinion was wrong, you expressed your opinion so I simply expressed mine.

  • @TheCrazyNintendoFan Nope, you said '...its way overrated due to nostalgia factor', no mention of it being your opinion at all there. Then you went on to say '...it is DEFINITELY the most overrated Zelda game.' again trying to state an opinion. You sir, are wrong.

  • @DrRhythmStyx the words nostalgia and memories aren't even in any of my comments, I think you have me confused with yaktr12

  • @TheCrazyNintendoFan My point still stands for the latter quote. Way to point out something that isn't relevant to your mistake. If you had have put '...in my opinion' it would have been correct.

  • @TheCrazyNintendoFan So you have 2 Zelda's in your top 5?

  • @dx619hey Yes, yes I do

  • I remember the first time I beat the game. I sat there in disbelief that it was over. I just stared at the fin. screen never wanting it to end.

  • One of my first videogames. Such great memories.

  • Got it. Love it. It takes getting used to the 3D(which you shouldn't turn on full blast right off the bat. In fact, the game gives off just as good 3D as full blast on the minimum setting). It gives a reason to finally go out and get the system(not that all the games are bad, just not must haves, this being the only one so far, 3DS sales will most likely sky rocket with the mass of games for it in August).

    This is not one to pass up on.

  • Overrated game. Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess, as well as my favorite Zelda of all time, ALTTP, are all better. It's till a solid 5/5 game, but it's just not my favorite.

  • @GameMasterGuy I agree, except with Twilight Princess. That was just clone of OoT to keep the hordes of OoT fans settled after they all complained about Wind Waker.

  • @GameMasterGuy if it wasn't for oot, MM and TP( which wasn't up to the expectation) wouldn't actually existed.

  • @Sonofdracula1 Doesn't mean it was better. Kirby's Dreamland 1 sucked, but it paved the way for a great series.

  • My favorite all time game--and I am so happy i can now take it anywhere without being chained to my N64

  • One word. Masterpiece.

  • This wasn't up already?

  • Still feels unique to me, even when it feels outdated in every way. But best game ever?

    Nope.

  • this game had it all..one of the best for it's time..still a great game today.

  • lols I never heard that there's an elgitar in this music piece before... anyone else hear it? ;-)

  • When I hear this, I warp TWELVE years into the past.

  • I haven´t beaten this game... i´m ashamed...

  • @dwagothegod You should really go and finish it. It's available on many platforms so it shouldn't be hard to track down if you don't have a copy already. Not the best ending, but a very fullfilling one to complete.

  • @contrageehard borrowed it from a friend on gamecube. Haven´t played it through yet been busy with other games. But yeah i´ve seen the ending etc, know most of the story been playing to the castle part when you´re hiding like a plattformer. And yeah need to finish it... After Dark Cloud which i´m soon done with!

  • @dwagothegod

    O_O

  • All time classic... yes!

  • Wouldn't mind if you placed it as 1000...

  • What took you so long to upload this?! Most beautifull theme ever !

  • okay seriously, what complete and utter dickhead disliked this!!!!!!!!!! Amazing song, amasing soundtrack, amazing game!

  • YEAYEAYEA!!!!

    

  • still my fav game of all time though, just on n64, when I was 8 back in 98. didnt beat it till I was 12 haha

  • im not going to play the new one, i dont like how it looks, sorry, maybe in a decade when it will be virtual reality.

  • Still get goosebumps.

  • Awesome! I just got the 3DS remake. It's awesome!!

  • Good timing i recently buyed Ocarina of Time for the 3DS
