The Legend Of Zelda: Majora’s Mask / Gaiden – Released for Nintendo 64, a “sequel” to the Ocarina of Time had lost much of its original features to 64DD, including 4 days of the original 7 disappearing from the game, many of the dungeons, and a multitude of quests to complete never to see the light of day(or who knows, maybe they were revived in Wind Waker). Yet even so, Majora’s Mask has managed to become one of the best games of the series. It’s really a shame to think what might have been on the 64DD.

Wow, that was entertaining. I used a bit of my current italian skills as well as google translate to translate and then patch up grammatically the paragraph. Here you go :)

2 unique images but I am not sure what point in time:

It looks like a few up there with a mix of English and Japanese. I’m no expert on this game though. From Edge (86, July 2000)

There are also Dinosaur Planet images but you have them already in another form.

Well, Ocarina of Time is being re-released on the Nintendo 3DS with many of its original features included (though they seem to be limited to missing dungeons and magic spells, not all the wacky 64DD stuff). I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Majora’s Mask got the same treatment somewhere down the line.

Seriously, four dungeons in a Zelda game? No amount of redundant, time-sensitive fetch quests make up for the distressing lack of actual dungeons in Majora’s Mask. If they do decide to re-release this, they’d better give me the other half of the damn game.

Koizumi said he worked on something similar years ago, a game that connected the Nintendo 64 and original black-and-white Game Boy systems to play on two screens. But he clammed up when I pressed him for details, only saying that it was a feature that was cut from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask.

“The information’s going to be shared at some point, but I don’t think today’s the time,” he said. (Wired)

Maybe this refers to the 64GB Cable…? At any rate, it sounds as though it might have developed into the GBA connectivity in Wind Waker and Four Swords Adventures.

Thanks for the link Robert! :) I really hope that they could make a Zelda: Majora’s Mask remake for the 3DS, so i will be able to replay it again and they will do an “Iwata Asks” with more interesting info on the game :P

Lost quests you say? It would be amazing if they’d give those to Grezzo and tell them to include them in Majora’s Mask 3D @.@ Also if they have any other dungeons or mini dungeons laid-out, I’d love them included as well. I realize that it would mean it’d take more time, but it would be worth it for sure.

I’m just hoping they do make Majora’s Mask 3D at this point, I’d be happy with it even if it didn’t have new content, but if they could add some of the cut content that there wasn’t room for or time to develop fully back then I’d be the happiest girl alive :D and I think it would give a lot of people who are on the fence much incentive to purchase the game. They could add it to a second quest and keep one that isn’t changed as well, two games could fit on the cartridge, they fit Ocarina and Master Quest on one.

A Majora’s Mask 3DS remake would be awesome, even if without new content. Majora is my favourite Zelda game, i would be happy to play it on the train!

I hope they will Remake Majoras Mask on the 3DS, with that other deleted part of the game with it, who agrees with me.

@PatBateman
Stop whinning and talking out of your ass. Not a single one of the MM sidequests was a fetch quest, and they certainly were too diverse to be called redundant.
