Why are we talking about it. Twenty-five years ago, The Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time was released in Japan on the Nintendo 64 console – French players waited until December 11 – a masterpiece whose format, in three dimensions (3D), was only in its infancy. Having already coded the 3D platform game with Super Mario Bros 64 (1996), the teams of Shigeru Miyamoto, co-creator of Super Mario and Zelda, have indeed revolutionized adventure gaming by creating an inventive, deep and epic video game.
Sold almost 8 million copies on Nintendo 64, Ocarina of Time is also considered one of the best video games of all time and remains the best-reviewed game on the aggregator Metacritic, with an unrivaled score of 99/100.
A game that is still relevant today. In May a brilliant heir emerged, The Legend of Zelda : Tears of the Kingdom, which is, in our opinion, one of the strongest candidates for video game of the year. More recently, on November 7, we learned that a film inspired by the universe of the franchise was being prepared, proof if any were needed that the adventures of Link, the elf warrior, are more popular than ever. agenda.
