Sort of. If Ocarina of Time released today, it wouldn't have a 99 on Metacritic. As an example, that basically means Twilight Princess is better than Ocarina of Time to critics, since it got a 96 on Metacritic with higher standards for games and more reviews.

Still, that doesn't keep their classic games from being great.

Difference is if OoT released today it wouldn't have been as original. On the other hand, today's gaming landscape wouldn't be the same without Ocarina. What it would look like without Nintendo at large I can't even begin to imagine.

So true. This is like saying Calculus is not that impressive today because of the advanced mathematics courses we have. Yet, you need to realize that Calculus is the FOUNDATION of many of those more "advanced" courses.

Translation: show some respect to your elders "son" lol.
