Zelda's Secret Ocarina

It's the dawn of a new Zelda era as Nintendo unveils the much-anticipated Zelda Master Quest, the GameCube remix of the renowned video game "Zelda: Ocarina of Time." Here we will feature exclusive screenshots and videos of the Master Quest and reveal the secrets that had once never left Japan's borders.

For those who would like a little history lesson, the Zelda Master Quest is actually an old game that was developed only a year or two after Ocarina of Time was released. At the time, Nintendo was attempting to push a new product in Japan called the N64 Disk Drive (a device you attached to the bottom of the N64 where the AUX port was). Needless to say, it was a failure. The N64DD was too expensive and had no appealing games except for Ura-Zelda (or Zelda Master Quest), and obviously the Japanese weren't too excited about buying a large clunky disk drive just for enhanced dungeons. Since then, Ura-Zelda was forgotten... well, until now. For the record: Ura-Zelda was promised to provide additional subquests, new dungeons, more items, and so on. The GameCube release was either a dramatically reduced version, or was quickly thrown together and given the title Ura-Zelda. We're thinking latter, but that's up to opinion.
