Ok, so I have another Zelda rant.

Currently I'm in the Snowpeak Ruins in Twilight Princess, but I'm also playing Ocarina of Time on the 3DS and some things are irking me about it.

The game had potential to be more challenging than it was had Navi not held your hand throughout the entire quest and pretty much gave you solutions to puzzles. But then, what also annoys me is how some puzzles would be pretty decent but then an item creates a scapegoat for it. For example: The very last room you visit in the Forest Temple's second floor - it has the pillar in the middle of a moat with a torch on it with the four rotating pillars around it and the frozen switch that untwists the second corridor. Most people probably didn't even have to figure out the puzzle at all and just got bailed out by using Din's Fire. There shouldn't be easy ways out of stuff like this, I don't think.


Wait... So Oot on 3DS is easier than the original?

I have one question. I just bought a 3DS and was looking at the Zelda OoT videos in 3D and....... do you guys really like Zelda in 3d? I put the 3d at minimum and still I feel it looks very very weird as if I was seeing double images or something, but I don't really like it at all. I've seen other videos and played with the camera and stuff, even Star Fox doesn't look like that at all... but every time I see the Zelda video my eyes just o_O

Is it just me? Does the video looks as the actual game?

Update on my progress -
Playing Links Awakening, but im stuck almost at the start of the game sadly.

I got a spade, a ribbon, which i traded for dog food i think, but i have no damn idea where to go next.

I feel stupid.

I don't have any 3d game, I've only played the ARGames, facerider and played with the camera, menus and all that stuff. I've seen some 3d videos of Star Fox and Zelda, but only Zelda I feel weird my eyes (Star Fox not that much). So it's just me? Have you seen that video?

well, my friend has a 3ds and i have played super street fighter 4 i think and i also took a few 3d pictures. I didnt really encounter any problems. The 3d worked fine with me. So zelda feels weird and star fox does a bit, but not much right?

Yes, I also played Street Fighter some months ago and didn't have any problem. Star Fox looks good from what I've seen, just a few parts of those videos I feel my eyes strange, but in the Zelda video is almost immediately. I don't know why but I feel that way. Just o_O

Someone has seen that video? Is in the shop channel.

The video is in the shop channel of the 3DS. Just go to the shop channel, select Zelda anniversary and there will be a video in 3D. It didn't occured to me to look it in google :p  that's a good idea lol

And just a quick search, (Zelda 3D double image), and yes, it appears it's very common. There are a lot of people complaining about the same. It seems is has something to do with the contrast when there's a dark background with something bright (like Link in green). Currently my 3DS is at max in bright, I'll try to reduce it and see if that helps. Maybe the video is always at max despite if I change it with the slider? I don't know. =/

Thanks for the help :)

You could try readjusting the 3D focus on the Settings menu. Ive done that a few times, and it seems to help.
