About The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time for Nintendo 3DS
The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time follows Link, a boy from Kokiri Forest who learns he is destined to protect Hyrule. Guided by the fairy Navi, he gathers three Spiritual Stones, draws the Master Sword and wakes seven years later in a kingdom ruled by Ganondorf. This Nintendo 3DS version brings the beloved Nintendo 64 classic to handheld play with cleaner visuals, a helpful touch screen inventory and a story that still feels grand from the first forest path to the final castle climb.
You explore towns, fields and dungeons in full 3D, solving puzzles with tools like the hookshot, bow and magical ocarina songs. Playing the ocarina changes the time of day, calls your horse Epona and opens secret paths. The Master Quest mode, unlocked after the main story, remixes the dungeons for returning players. Its dungeons, songs and characters have been referenced by adventure games ever since it first appeared.

Buying The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time today means thinking physical. Since the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, new digital purchases are no longer possible at all. Look instead for a physical cartridge from a retailer you trust, where good copies still circulate. Anyone who bought the game digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games, so long time owners lose nothing by the change.
Few adventures earn the word classic, and this one proves it in every dungeon.
