The only way to play Ocarina is with an actual N64. My stepson and I just played through it about a year ago. Possibly the best game of all time.
You mean "only way" as in I shouldn't play it any other way? I have an N64, so I would just need to track down a copy, but there are GameCube copies available too. They both seem pricey, though.

Splatoon is a lot of fun. I ditched the motion controls right away and it helped a lot.

Ruddo? Please don't hand Gannon a piece of the TriForce. This is going to end horribly.

The 3DS port is pretty good. It is just fine on Virtual Console as well.

Man, Ocarina of Time - what a game. Amazing. And what a huge influence on so many present day games.

Yeah, the sounds of that game are forever etched in my mind. My younger brother played it A LOT when we were kids, and he still raves about it and MM; his views on them are pretty intense. I'm pretty curious to go through them myself for the first time.

Yep. The detail they point into that game is astounding. On every level. Sound. Graphics. Controls. Masterpiece.

Yes, it is in the options when you are at the main menu/town square thing. I think my Nintendo ID is PlayC3.

Ordered a PS4. eBay had a deal. $350 for the 500Gb with Last Of Us. No Tax. No interest for 6 months. Wasn't going to get one till the next Uncharted but figured this was the best deal I was probably going to get.
