I want to play Ocarina of time and Majora's Mask, should i emulate the N64 versions or the 3DS versions?

n64 legitimately looks better imo. 3ds remake comes off as a bit more satureated, colorful and cartoony somehow
dont fpbp yourself

3DS for ocarina and for majora there's a 3DS restoration patch that makes it 10x better, if you don't want to patch it go with the n64 version.
Also if you are playing away from the pc play the n64 ones, since with the 3DS ones you need to touch to use your items

You shit

Play the gamecube version.
3DS is censored, removed blood etc.

>If you take this hobby seriously
this might be the gayest thing I’ve ever heard

The 3DS versions are better in every single conceivable way except for Zora swimming in MM.

N64

Blood was removed in Version 1.1, and the GameCube version is based off of 1.2, dumbass

>The 3DS versions are better in every single conceivable way except for Zora swimming in MM.
And the boss fights. And deku scrub movement. And the Ice Arrows.
3DS is acceptable for OoT, but MM3D is fucked. I hear there's a mod that reverts most of the shit changes, though.

n64 version is kino soul and only trannies disagree

Don't even bother with them OP. They have aged terribly. Play some Dark Souls instead. Or even Kingdom Hearts.

OOT, the argument for N64 is definitely just "SOUL" but imo it's a fine argument. The gameplay is certainly smoother on 3DS, but the environments lack all their old atmosphere, the cutscenes and animations feel really cheap, and the audio quality is worse. If the technical improvements in graphical fidelity, nicer framerate, and QoL improvements are more important to you then go for that, but just know it's not an objective improvement across the board.

Majora's Mask, you DEFINITELY want to go with the N64 version. The 3DS version has the overbrightening and oversaturation of OOT3D, but then on top of that they made a bunch of gameplay changes for the worse. It's an outright worse version of the game other than higher poly models and (usually) higher resolution textures.

>Blood was removed in Version 1.1
Incorrect. Also, the environmental blood in the Bottom of the Well and the Shadow Temple was there even on the GameCube.

Play 1.0 and get the full experience.

3ds for OOT, n64 for MM

this is a based answer and cannot be proved wrong

Thread should have ended here, consolecucks ETERNALLY btfo with their jankware.

Why the hell would you ask if you've never played them? You should always ALWAYS default to the original. When you beat the original, if you liked it, play the remake. Its much more fun to play the original and then the remake to see what changed. But yes, the N64 has soul. And soul means they put their heart into it. The remakes are soulless cash cow bs.

PC exclusive games are autism simulators. Especially at the time of OOT's release, you simply could not have a fluid action/adventure experience on PC period.

I do not know diddly about 3DS emulation but I know emulated the n64 games without any issues.

From a gameplay quality perspective, I have played both versions of OoT and felt the same, just with different graphics. If you want to do weird glitchy stuff instead of regular gameplay, then stick with the older game.

3ds version of OoT
I prefer the old look of n64 because nostalgia, but 3ds is likely the better version to play
N64 version of MM
The 3ds version made some gameplay changes like altering the boss fights, would be better experienced in original form

In terms of environments the remakes aren't soulless. They completely miss the point in terms of lighting and visibility but not for lack of soul, they added a ton of small details actually. The animations are pretty soulless though, which is something nobody ever touches on.

>Especially at the time of OOT's release, you simply could not have a fluid action/adventure experience on PC period.
Why not?

>Incorrect
If we are talking about the red blood that Ganondorf spits up at the end of the game, absolutely correct

The n64 instills more dread and fear than the remake. The original was visually dark and the moon it its design was really looming. The remake moon looks like a literal fan made deviant art upload.

Who are you quoting?

The N64 version of OOT is the dev team's original vision for the game, and is the most atmospheric version. The 3DS version has better graphics and framerate, as well as some nice QoL improvements, but some areas like the Forest Temple and the final boss lose a lot of atmosphere. The sound quality is also worse, but it's only noticeable if you're really paying attention. Really either version is great.

Avoid MM3D like the plague. It's a downgrade in almost every aspect from the N64 version. There's a reason that one video about MM3D gets posted here a bunch.

3ds remakes are soulless. play the originals on 64 or cube

I was referring to Ocarina of Time, where even with the devastation of atmosphere I still think the 3DS version isn't soulless. Majora's Mask though, they missed the point so hard you really can call it soulless.

OOT 3DS is really good, better than the original overall I’d say, although like a lot of 3DS games the brightness is cranked up since 3D mode makes things darker, which can ruin the atmosphere in some areas, most notably the finally fight.
MM 3DS is garbage because they gimped the Deku and Zora gameplay mechanics and casualized some of the boss fights

No, you're wrong.

3DS remake of OoT is probably the definitive version but the N64 version is just fine
3DS remake of Majora's Mask while improves in some places also has some stupid decisions like Zora swimming being neutered and reworked bosses to have a specific weak point to attack to damage them I recommend the original Majora's Mask in this case but ultimately it's up to you

OoT 3DS includes Master Quest so that

It's not even the original Master Quest

Oh well I didn't actually play either ocarinas I was talking about mm

Play the N64 version emulated so you can use randomizaer mods.

Ocarina 3ds is an improvement in every way, but MM is a hard decision because the 3ds changed the fun swimming mechanics and tweaked boss fights (and made one way worse) but also improved on how much freedom you have when using time. Instead of literally wasting multiple minutes since you can only jump at certain points in time, the 3ds version gives you the option to pick the time.
MM64 is way more tense because of its limitations and save system, though, while MM3ds is more casual but less annoying.

Ocarina on 3DS is really good. An emulator should look amazing. The camera controls fine while aiming and some changes make the dungeons more understabale.

Majoras didn't achieve the creapy aestethic and doesn't look that scary. But if you are going with 3DS i guess is good enough

>you simply could not have a fluid action/adventure experience on PC period.
Other way around, PCs in 1998 could have easily run games akin to OOT, while the N64 could barely handle it.

You fucked up

that guy is a literal autist

It’s Master Quest with double damage which is even better

What versions shipped on gamecube collection and master quest?

I'm not referring just to graphics.

If you're playing MM on 3ds, get this -- restoration.zora.re/

>I'm not referring just to graphics.
Then you admit that you're wrong about graphics. What else could PCs possibly not handle?

it's not that pc exclusive games in 1998 weren't capable of having games like OOT, but more so than they were designed to be complex to the point of tedium, which is actually appropiate considering how the only people who bothered to build a good pc in the 90s to play vidya were super autistic.

emulate the master collection on dolphin, there's a patch to make them run at 30fps, the n64 versions run at a whopping 20fps, which is gay. additionally, you get widescreen support, cheats, and better overall audio and video quality than anything that runs on project64. the only downside is that you'll be playing the latest version of ocarina of time, so say good bye to the original fire temple music, crescent moon gerudo icon, and all the other stuff they took out in the name of censorship.

I don't know about the 3ds games, they're probably better by comparison, so if you want to drop some cash, get a 3ds.

Remakes are gay, you should play the greatest game of all time as it was originally released

Emulate 3DS but patch Majora with this. restoration.zora.re/
Majora 3D has tons of QoL changes and improved visuals but also some questionable stuff that makes you wonder why they changed it all all. This fixes that.

3ds is shit

I'm the user that brought up censorship, just to make this clear I was talking about the blood in bottom of well and I think in shadow temple as well.
Pic related is definitely still present in the GC version but removed for the 3DS version.

Not talking about the blood effects that you see when hitting ganon.

left certainly has a strange funkish forest feel

Then why did you post that "you couldn't have a fluid action/adventure experience on PC"?
Fluidity obviously refers to technical milestones, and even if you remove that, PCs were the kings of action games with how well first person shooters have done.

noway the master collection has long as fuck start menu load

OoT is basically the same for both except for visuals, which is the main point of contention for that.
MM has actual changes between the N64 and 3DS versions. 3DS version introduces some good QoL changes (Fast forward to almost any hour as opposed to only the next day/night, bomber book tracks more details with sidequests) as well as some very questionable ones (nerfed zora swimming, altered boss fights).
There's also a fan patch for MM3D if you have the option to do that, otherwise I would personally go with N64 version for MM.
