Game Description:
Ganondorf, the evil King of Thieves, is on the move, threatening the peaceful land of Hyrule. He is determined to steal his way into the legendary Sacred Realm in hopes of harnessing the power of the mythical Triforce. As the young hero Link, it is your destiny to thwart Ganondorf’s evil schemes. Navi, your guardian fairy, will guide you as you venture through the many regions of Hyrule, from the volcanic caves of Death Mountain to the treacherous waters of Zora’s Domain. Before you complete this epic quest, you’ll delve into deadly dungeons, collect weapons of great power and learn the spells you need to conquer the most irresistible force of all-time. * The immersive storyline and environments draw players into an amazing 3D world. * Time travel allows you to play as Link in different stages of his life. * New gameplay features include a unique targeting system and 1st and 3rd person perspectives. * Up to three games can be saved simultaneously to memory!
This game was also available from The Nintendo Gateway System specialised for airlines and hotels. As part of a partnership between Nintendo and LodgeNet from late 1993 up until the late 2000s, about 40,000 airline seats and 955,000 hotel rooms featured a modified version of the game. LodgeNet partnered with Nintendo to bring video games directly into guest hotel rooms through streaming over the LodgeNet server, with the special LodgeNet controller plugging directly into the television or LodgeNet set-top box, transmitting the game over phone lines connected to a central game server. Pricing was usually $6.95 plus tax for 1 hour of video games. After 1 hour, the game would immediately stop and prompt the user to purchase more play time. Many games were modified for single-player play only.

Texture Packs Available
Jabo 1.7 Format
Designed for use with the Jabo_Direct3D8 1.7.0.57-ver6 video plugin, This is a prototype cel mod pack from the Project64 1.7 beta days by KMan. The packs can be found at: KMan’s: Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time _Hi-Rez
GlideN64 Format
Designed for use with GlideN64, there are several packs to choose from below:
Zelda OOT Cellpack 2011 (Djipi) Djipi‘s Zelda Ocarina of Time Cellpack 2011 is just like his MM project in the way or pure effort and devotion spent on the project, it really is just one hell of a project that has so much wow factor and as Link raises his trusty Master Sword and lets out a mighty ‘By the power of The Deku Tree’ It is also a true work of art that shows the authors time and effect in every frame and makes you appreciate it even more so knowing that fact as it unfolds in front of your very eyes. Although this project is only compatible with Glide64’s latest plugin, it in no way diminishes the value or fun of how this game looks and feels as you play it.
Zelda OOT Manga Link (SusanXFox) The intention of this project from SusanXFox is to make Link look more ‘Manga Like’ as he did in The Legend of Zelda series of comics published by Valiant Comics.
Zelda OOT – Community Pack (EmuTalk Community) This pack by the EmuTalk Community is by far one of the most if not the most popular OOT texture packs of all time.
