The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the first 3D entry in the popular series by Nintendo, and is generally considered as one of the best video games of all time. The game has been released on multiple Nintendo consoles over time, including Nintendo Switch as part of the Nintendo Switch Online offerings, but has only been remade once for the Nintendo 3DS console, complete with some additional features not found in the original.

 In this game, Link sets off on a legendary journey through time to stop Ganondorf, the Gerudo King of Thieves who is seeking the Triforce, a holy relic that gives its holder ultimate power. The graphical upgrades and three-dimensional depth breathe new life into the expansive world of Hyrule. An improved and intuitive interface, coupled with the easier navigation offered by playing in a world with 3D visuals, give players better control as they solve puzzles, travel through time and explore this immersive world.
