There's a conversation about Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time. I'll just say that the reason I personally didn't buy Majora's Mask at the time was because I'd moved on from the N64. Also, while I owned an N64 Ram Pak (or Jump Pak or whatever the hell it was called), many gamers didn't. Majora's Mask required it.

I still think Cyber is wrong but that's my take on why Majora's Mask didn't sell. From where I sat, most of the Zelda haters that cringed when they saw Wind Waker revealed (myself included) eventually came around by the time the game launched. Hell, I got a free copy of Ocarina of Time just for pre-ordering!

There's details being overlooked by both sides of the discussion. And with my two cents added, I'm off!

This is a good point, and something I overlooked in my posts. The expansion pak was required for Majora's Mask and it came out later in the life cycle of N64, two things that explain its lower sales. It's actually quite similar to Skyward Sword in that regard.

I still stand by my opinion, though.

Did you ever have a chance to go back and play Majora's Mask, attaboy? It's an amazing game. I highly recommend it.


I got it last year as a Platinum reward from Club Nintendo.....and I haven't even pressed start on the title screen yet.  I plan to play it, though!  I swear!!
