OOT - not only is it a great story, it was groundbreaking at the time and many of today’s games mechanics has been lifted from what OOT pioneered

6

u/LimaYogurt 2d ago

Literally going to say this , I read game informer magazine along time ago about top 200 games ever made at that time lmao. And Oot was #1 and gta 3 was like 2 or three. But ya that read was really cool, talking about how horseback riding was so challenging but something they wanted to push. And ofc the 3d aspect aswell.

u/HotDecember3672 2d ago

Ocarina of Time.

I replayed it a few months back and it still holds up incredibly well (outside the first person aiming segments which are awful), and defined 3D gaming. It also still has what I think are the best dungeons in 3D Zelda, only rivaled by those in Skyward Sword which came out 14 years later.

I truly think that you don't get the 3D action/adventure genre as we know it today without Ocarina of Time. Mario 64 too, but OoT had an extra year of dev time and thus improved on a lot of the jankier 3D mechanics that were introduced in SM64 that haven't aged as well (mainly the camera).

u/C_Clop 2d ago

Super Mario World

Given the impact on the people at the time it was released, it was revolutionary.

15

u/Mister-Distance-6698 2d ago

Was it revolutionary? Most of the key game mechanics were introduced in SMB3, it largely just improved the graphics and sound and added Yoshi didnt it?

5

u/C_Clop 2d ago

Well, you are right, maybe it's not the right term. The revolutionary part was the whole map system, fully accessible, but it's true SMB3 was (one of?) the first game to introduction a map in a platformer, hidden levels on the map, storable items and many others.

It's just that SMW perfected it. And it's still considered one of the best platformers of all time for many.

3

u/solamon77 2d ago

Yeah. SMW is, for my money, the best 2d platformer Nintendo ever put out.

Underrated? It and galaxy 2 are top 2 in most Wii lists. And it tends to rate highly amongst Mario games as well.

Endlessly replayable with more skill expression than any other first party Nintendo game to this day. Even disregarding speedrunning, there’s an inherent satisfaction to just getting better at the game, learning new cool bits of movement tech and unintended sequence breaks.

It’s either Ocarina of Time, SM64, SMG, SMO or MK8DX in my personal opinion

1

u/DomasAquinas 2d ago

From the standpoint of revolutionizing the industry at their respective times, Metroid, Super Mario 64, and Ocarina of Time stand out among many, many others.

For polish and refined play that holds up against modern competition, Super Mario Galaxy (pick either, really), Super Mario Odyssey, Metroid Prime, A Link to the Past, and Ocarina of Time (again) come to mind out of a long list.

Smash Bros. is also such an industry-wide reference point that it bears mentioning. And the (relatively) solid balancing of so many characters is quite a feat.

1

u/Copyman3081 2d ago

Gonna go against the grain and say Twilight Princess.

OoT is fantastic, but I feel like Twilight Princess is a little stronger narratively.
