    The original was almost perfect, but this remake fixed every issue I had with it. It is definitely worth buying for either the 3Ds, or the New 3Ds XL.

    Nostalgia... same game as N64 tittle...but the 3D effect just look beautiful! If you have a 3DS and love the Zelda franchise this game has to be on your library. Great adventure that uses time a lot, but don't worry, for thius portable edition you can save the game so you don't loose the progress.

    Oh my... it seems like they outdid themselves on this one. It has beautiful graphics, trumping that of OoT 3D, it has a much better atmosphere, the timer was changed to be able to understand it better, and everything was, overall better! It greatly improved on the original and makes me look forward to the next zelda game.

    One of the most brilliant, exciting, and clever action-adventure RPGs that you will ever play. With a well-written story, excellent graphics, and superb gameplay and dungeon design, this is one of Nintendo's best. This is far more than just a simple port.

    Just as good as the original. Purists may think some quality of life changes such as saving on statues or being able to skip every single cutscene with the masks could ruin the feeling of the original, but I have to disagree.

    Beautiful graphics, awesome 3D effect, engaging from start to end, I only regret it wasn't ported to Wii U aswell.

    a amazing game remade on the 3ds. because of the 3 day time limit the characters in the game almost feel like real people. not only that but most of the side-quests are really enjoyable. the only downside is that the dungeons (except the last one) really aren't as great as in other titles. but still a great game worth your time.

    Majora’s Mask 3D does a great job of bringing the N64 classic to the 3DS, but not without a few problems. The game looks fantastic and it’s one of the best looking 3DS games i’ve ever played, though the look comes at a cost, I noticed the frame rate drop below thirty at several points, but it was only for a few seconds at most and the game was still playable.

The main combat is the same as it is in Ocarina of Time, it’s solid and complex while still remaining easy to learn, though there are a few new additions to it with the masks you unlock. The four main masks all grant you unique abilities, my personal favorite is the goron mask. In this game you aren’t in hyrule anymore, instead you are in Termina, a place twice as interesting as Hyrule ever was, the world has so much character, instead of just being salesmen and encyclopedias the characters are actual characters, almost everyone has a personality and so does the world. The dungeons are fun and interesting, a huge improvement of Ocarina of Time. The puzzles are still kinda lame though. The three day mechanic adds a feeling of urgenecy to the situation that no other game has had and the game has a ton of fun side content to complete.… Expand

    I have a love-hate relationship with Majora's Mask.

    What I love: First, the history of this game. Without a doubt, Majora's Mask presents the most creative story of all the Zelda games.

    What I love:
    First, the history of this game. Without a doubt, Majora's Mask presents the most creative story of all the Zelda games. Second, I love the dark tone; the last town before the last Temple is scary and your background music could be easily included in any Horror Game what I would not be surprised. Third, I love the overall weirdness of this game. Everything is nonsense: the events, the characters ... It's like an Alice in Wonderland Zelda version. Fourth, I love playing with Deku Link. He's cute and lovely. If I could, I would play with him the whole game. And I love the bizarre statue of Link (dubbed by fans as "Ben", due to creepypasta). It's a pity that we can't really make "him" appears in all regions of the game. It would be funny.

    Compared to the new generation of games, Majora's Mask is very difficult and very confusing. Very much. If you're playing it in the dark for the first time, it's humanly impossible for you to finish this game without the help of a detonated, unless you are a genius prodigy in puzzles, or has an infinite time at their disposal (the which is not my case). And this is the version for 3DS: I've never played for Nintendo 64, but say that's 10 times worse. Jesus Christ.

    But now, the parties I really hate about Majora's Mask:
    First, the controls of Zora Link in underwater sucks. It took me almost two hours just to find out how Zora Link can break boxes in the water, and another half hour to hit the move. I love Zora Link, but... Sorry. This controls are little sucks.

    Second, I don't like the fact this game is timed. This is not a problem when you are making side missions or playing at random, but it is a big problem when you need to complete Dungeons. In Dungeons you can't stop for admiring the scenery (which can be done in Ocarina of Time), because you will be more concerned looking all the time on the clock to see how long still missing. In short: pressure. And I hate feeling pressure while I'm playing. And what is most terrible is that you can not afford to be dying all the time in the mini-bosses and end Boss (which seem easy, but they are not), because there will not be time. And to make the most desperate situation, the puzzels, mainly in the Water Temple and the last Temple also isn't easy. So, will be normal you get lost a few times and see precious time going down the drain. The icing on the cake doom is to collect the Stray Fairies at the same time. Only Ninjas can. To be clear: This difficulty in puzzels and bosses isn't bad, the bad thing is you being timed. If not for the annoying finite time, Majora's Mask would be a much more fun game, in my humble opnion.

    But before you curse me, I want tell that Majora's Mask is a really great game, and easily my second favorite game of Legend of Zelda series.    … Expand

    Majora's Mask is one of the harder games because of its 3 day cycle. And for that reason the bomber's notebook really does help players get an idea of where they need to go. This is simply another essential game for your 3DS.    … Expand

    O jogo retrata bem o Majora's Mask, com ótimos efeitos, jogando de um New 3DS XL o jogo traz uma experiência muito melhor do que no 3DS comum. O jogo é sensacional, e seu único defeito é a falta de intuitividade inicial. Ótimo jogo, super recomendado, a experiência e emoção é a mesma de quando se joga no Nintendo 64, com a diferença que nesta versão ele cabe em seu bolso.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. i recently got back into the legend of Zelda series through the glory that is emulation, my most recent one was Majora's Mask for the N64 but i ran into issues with the pictobox and decided to just buy the remake instead and so far i am in love with the 3ds variant more, there was so many quality of life changes i just adore like how you can just get the bombers notebook from the mask salesman and you can get the song of soaring from the swamp almost instantly from finishing the tutorial. the sing of double time allows you to pick specific points of time so it's a lot more user friendly and results in less waiting in place. my only issue I've encountered so far is the Deku scrub ,movement. i enjoyed being able to YEET myself at the speed of light and it feels very stilted, but other than that i'm glad i finally bought this game and can't wait to 100% it.… Expand

    A good remake of one of the best and my favorite TLoZ game of all time. Controls felt a bit harder, than necessary

    I will just write a short and provisional review as I feel like Majora's Mask deserves a second chance. The concept is so unique and there is high replay value so I will rewrite this review one day if I change my mind about it.

    I did enjoy the story a lot but there were problems. The game became very repetitive and some puzzles were very frustrating but overall still a very good play.

    The Legend of Zelda: May the Majora's Mask 3D be released as a Nintendo Switch, too. That's how fun and well-made the game is.
    It is also a very dark and scary game.
    So it's even more fun!

    This game is one of the best games I have ever played. It may have nerfed the zora and deku mechanics but it overall the same game that came out on the N64 but with a new coat of paint. This game still to this day is one of my favorite games.

    Overall, the game is masterfully well-done. This is a must play for anyone that grew up with the game, or is barely playing it for the first time. the dark tone is a departure for most Zelda games, making this one a different experience.

    Majora's Mask 3D is a great remake, remaining faithful to the original in most ways. Link's Zora swimming is much worse in this version though. One of the darkest and most creative stories in the Zelda franchise, and definitely a must-play. This is my preferred version of the game.

    Siendo una secuela continuista, el sistema de tiempo a la hora de hacer las mazmorras es un lastre importante. Obligar a hacerla en 2 o 3 tandas, repitiendo durante casi horas a hacer lo mismo una y otra vez no es divertido, lo siento.

    Acima é meu review do jogo original, e posso dizer que foi o mesmo sentimento que tive jogando esse Título, não repeti a nota porque acredito que eles poderiam ter melhorado a mecânica de direcionamento do personagem, visto que é fácil se ver pulando ou caindo em lugares não desejados, passaram se 15 anos, daria para melhorar, tirando esse fato, posso dizer que minha infância foi revivida, ainda que por uma semana.    … Expand

    While much of the charm of the original game is still present, it baffles me as to why the control schemes for the transformation masks were changed (which needlessly slows down both southern swamp and great bay), and as to why the bosses were changed to be more in line with the "hit the glowing eye" fights of other Zelda games.

    Even though this game may be quite stressful due to the time mechanic (which was not really favorable for me, because I like to take my time enjoying the game and progressing), I think it makes up for that in terms of concept, art style, and soundtrack.

    This is a great game that gives a challenging, speedrun-esque vibe. The aspect of three days to do anything you need to do in that run is an amazing feature that, although frustrating at some times, brings some personality to the game itself. With gyroscopic controls you can perform shooting challenges, shoot down enemies, and the like. I would highly recommend this game. 10/10

    They did a pretty good job at hitbox / bug fixing, and the speedrun is still kinda interesting, in my opinion I just think that they made the game a bit to easy. But it can be good in a certain way cause that means that more players can give it a try.

    Dark, surreal, poignant. Link's foray into the world of Termina – a strange fascimile of Hyrule destined to be crushed beneath a grimacing moon unless our hero can find a way to stop its descent – is certainly one of his most unusual adventures, but it's also one of his best.

    To my immense surprise, I haven’t fallen for a Zelda game like this since I played the The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (1991). Evidence of master craftsmanship is everywhere in this game. By the time you’re flipping a temple upside down then right side up, you may discover that your imagination has been enlarged.
