Ura Zelda History & Unused Content | Zelda Cut Content

[@majoraz6051]

Majora's Mask is probably my favourite Zelda game, so they had focused on Ura instead we would be living in a world without MM. So I'm glad they decided to go with making a new Zelda rather than adding dungeons to OoT (which is already a masterpiece)

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Indeed I think they did the best choice yet and even then we still got Masters Quest too with the remix dungeons in addition

[@DarkPsychoMessiah]

@@Earth11111 Realistically if they did both, then you'd have repeat of areas or rather Majora's Mask would have to be delayed to the GameCube at that point as the team would be too busy with Ura Zelda... which might have worked well enough since Majora's Mask with some darker cel-shading might be neat

[@TheTrueNehme]

I believe this video convinced me that Majora's Mask _is_ Ura Zelda, or at the very least MM picked up the mantle of what Ura would inevitably be.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Feels that way. It does like "What would happen if we could utilize the full power of the N64 on OoT", which is what happened

[@carso1500]

Ura zelda is master quest in the Gamecube, is just that the since the planned extra dungeons where added on majora's mask they had to scale back the project

[@YashaMikage]

From the bits and pieces that I've heard over the years, this is almost in-line with what I thought happened to Ura Zelda. My suspicions were a bit off though in that I thought the unused assets went to Majora's Mask and unused Dungeon layouts ended up being used for Wind Waker. I actually thought that Master Quest was something that they put together particularly to spice up the Wind Waker release and teased the Ura Zelda elements to stir attention. Neat to have a better idea of what actually happened with that.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Wind Waker dungeon wise; it's still possible something of it was repurposed for that too. It's really hard to say what wasn't and was used. I mean boss rush mode didn't appear until the Remaster on 3DS afterall. Otherwise glad you found this informative.

It’s funny how history repeats itself, although this case is more of a rhyme. New Zelda game (MM) needs assets so it takes from last Zelda game’s dlc (Ura), and now dlc for new Zelda game (BotW) is stopped because they have so many ideas to make a new game.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Thank you for watching everyone! and I hope this does clear up a lot of the misconceptions of Ura Zelda while also answering any questions on what it was and why it never came out. Also a small correction on the Randnet pricing. Thanks to Luigiblood who gave us a better insight vs much of the internet, it seems the 23.50 included a rental 64DD with it actually, while what I mentioned was the store price if one bought the 64DD. So one could in a way play it in a cheaper way but you wouldn't own it in the end so much. ZethN64 did also want to make it clear that this wasn't his Link model in the footage of his recreation mod that we were showing. The rooms are the main focus tbh.

29 here. Also first Zelda. I would have loved to see more N64 Zelda as the N64 feels like home to me. But if we piece things together logically with the info we have we can assume what Obsessive Gamer mentioned in the video; that Ura Zelda was reused in Master Quest and MM. Would I have loved another game? Of course! But we can take solace in the ROM community for "DLC."

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

@@sublime_tv I do hope the ROM community maybe attempts to merge some MM masks as such to get us a tad closer to Ura Zelda then lol

[@_timetravels4528]

I SUGGEST you try randomizers. It MAY not be for you, but chances are great that you will LOVE this shit. Seriously, its ALMOST like playing the game for the first time again having to explore every doors, even those you dont remember existing, and it pushes you to explore and find all these keys and boss keys, to be creative all over again to find how to get to certain places, and it will push you to play the game for real instead of by memory. I am having WAY too much for with these right now and I tought it wouldnt be for me as I dont know any glitches or dont consider myself a true scholar of the game like these speedrunners. Give it a try =) Maybe you can tap a bit in that nostalgia

[@joakimsjosten8999]

Zelda Ocarina, Master Quest and Majora’s Mask is URA if you combine them. It is the easiest way it might actually be. After Ganondorf’s defeat you will go on a new adventure and has the same ocarina from Zelda to protect and use.

[@RoyalRoxia]

So, Ura Zelda became Majora's Mask with some of the Scrapped ideas, they had left over for master quest.

[@TBoneTony]

I always put Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask together as the same game on any Fav Game list. Mostly because I often saw Majora's Mask the extra quest that would have happened if Ocarina of Time's 64DD was complete as intended. Also fits in with the internal clock function.

[@zaizen4359]

This was a lovely and comprehensive video. Personally, I'm of the opinion that while there will likely always been some part of Ura Zelda that remains an unsolved mystery (unless Nintendo decides to release a documentary on the making of OoT someday...that would be amazing!) we have been, and will be playing bits of Ura Zelda as we experience the other Zelda games as Nintendo loves to take concepts that they couldn't include in one game and implement them in some way into a newer game. Some examples of this would be the horse riding and grass whistle mechanics in Twilight Princess, as well as some things we see in Breath of the Wild as well.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Thank you! Yeah we can only go so far to know how much of Ura Zelda was a thing, so some may stay a grand mystery (like how much did Majora's Mask actually take from it?)

[@tyg-zw7nn]

I don't think he was like trying to deceive us. He means the ultimate concept they decided on. All the previous iterations ideas are not part of this. The stuff from prior stages that they experimented on DD.

[@SIXminWHISTLE]

Great video! I've been following the many pieces covered here like the N64DD, Ura Zelda, the Gigaleak, and the recreation mods; but this paints a much clearer picture of virtually everything. I hadn't heard about the boss rush stuff at all, or that Master Quest maps were actually grouped with the leaked Ura files. Hell, this was the best explanation of why the DD flopped as hard as it did that I have seen. $299 for an add-on, and Zelda being a full priced expansion that required the original, AFTER the Dreamcast was already out? The Gigaleak has given so much insight on long hanging questions and development processes. I wish more developers had similar troves of beta content. Capcom seems like it's be the most interesting to me.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Thank you! and glad it was very informative on giving that clear picture. Hopefully devs open up one day. Capcom's original concept for Devil May Cry is what I want to see when it was the original Resident Evil 4

[@evdestroy4121]

Good video, incredibly well researched, definitely surpassed my expectations. Nice! The only issue I saw was at the end where you say that the early MM dungeons in the Ura/MQ files were originally meant for Ura Zelda. That is most likely false. They were probably the secret dungeons that Aonuma were making during his time on Ura's development since he disliked remixing his old dungeons. I only say this because he explicitly mentions it in a MM3D Iwata Asks. YT won't let me post the link, but it's the first page of the MM3D Iwata Asks. In short, Ura Zelda is not a husk of what it was meant to be. It's exactly what we were always intended to get.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Thanks! Aonuma was probably experimenting on making Ura Zelda maps, so these very maps were likely meant for Ura Zelda originally before being pushed to Majora's Mask. These weren't dungeons and were just maps of random areas, so I believe these were indeed being made for Ura Zelda before being moved to Majora's Mask.

[@evdestroy4121]

@@TheObsessiveGamer I very highly doubt it, considering the code of the OOT only calls for dungeon layouts from the disk data. You can ask all this stuff on the TCRF Discord server, there are people there who are very knowledgeable on how this stuff works.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

@@evdestroy4121 The code calls only for replacing maps. New Maps could still be inserted as seen in the Disk Mod "Dawn and Dusk" which did exactly that. Its creator did mention it was a rather tough process still, but proved none the less it is possible to do so. Therefore Nintendo making these maps for Ura Zelda originally still stands but its difficulty in execution map have also been another reason (aside from Aonuma just not wanting to make to update a game) that they moved them to Majora's Mask. As for the Aonuma interview you mention, I am well aware of that and the only reason he mentioned dungeons was cause he was the dungeon designer of OOT so naturally he'd be in charge of the section that involved remixing dungeons, while others would handle any other aspect of it (which still wouldn't be enough). Thus why he moved on

Thank you for not being dumb like literally every other person on the subject. Everyone else always pretends that Ura and Master Quest are two different names, but you actually tell the truth and say that "Master Quest" is just NoA's localized name for it. Again, thank you. :)

Ocarina of Time is TRULY one of the greatest games of all time. It was a game changer when it came out (True 3D/massive world for the time, characters, music, etc) and side quests. I used to go fishing alot when I just wanted to travel Hyrule and chill. They really did a GREAT job of making the world feel like a REAL world with the limited space they had to deal with.

[@shadowledastray]

This was an exciting video! One of my favorite videos that you've done. Do you think those two MM maps from URA might be the ones Aunoma mentions here? "I secretly started making new dungeons that weren’t in Ocarina of Time, and that was much more fun to me [than remixing dungeons for Ura/MQ]. So, I grew up the courage to ask Miyamoto-san whether I could make a new game, he replied by saying it’s ok if I can make it in a year.”

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Thank you! That sounds exactly the situation that happened here actually, though these weren't dungeons but just new areas. As I said in the video, the dungeons of MM may have been in Ura Zelda originally, which may be what Aonuma is talking about here

[@shadowledastray]

@@TheObsessiveGamer I see what you mean. I saw someone talking about those 64DD maps loading in place of OoT dungeons like Deku Tree so it made me wonder if it may have been what Aunoma worked on off to the side. Though as unlikely as this idea may be, it also makes me imagine Master Quest only with brand new dungeons completely redesigned from ground up.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

I highly doubt those were meant to load in place of the Inside the Great Deku Tree (for the Swamp map) and Jabu Jabu's belly (for beneath the well in Ikana Canyon). I imagine those were just place holders until they decided where they want to direct the entrance and exit to later... I mean I highly doubt the intention was to have the inside of Jabu Jabu look like Beneath the Well. I imagine these were going to be part of the new scenarios that Miyamoto was speaking of as a side story or side quest or expanded story even. Maybe a new area in hyrule might have been unlocked even with some of these blended in

[@shadowledastray]

@@TheObsessiveGamer My bad, I meant Aunoma using the Ura dungeon functionality to test those maps out inside OoT, maybe that's why he referred to his secret work as "dungeons". Completely new dungeons would definitely need to match OoT's themes better than a well inside a fish though. Lol

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

@@shadowledastray Oh then yeah maybe. I know personally that it's not hard to replace maps in OOTs data (i've done it myself) so it would be like the ideal place to test it.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

The ZethN64 team definitely had a lot of heart in taking what Miyamoto said and made what they would have if they were put in charge of expanding upon Ocarina of Time. The product definitely did look amazing too. I imagine it would have been quite legendary if they hadn't made Majora's Mask here, but I guess that's the trade off

[@Weedbongz]

Lmao, I remember that shitshow. I remember when every few weeks a trailer would be announced, and then when it was supposed to come out it was always conveniently delayed. Turns out, there was barely any work done to begin with, and all of the stuff shown in trailers was actually REALLY old stuff. Not to mention it pretty much stopped being an Ura Zelda restoration and was its own game instead. Thank god I never donated to it, though I wanted to at first.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

@@Weedbongz I wasn't following it closely, but all that happened eh? Feels like a trend with a lot of Zelda recreation mods sometimes. I mean based on what I saw, it does seem to be the idea of "if Miyamoto told me to make an expansion to OoT, how would I do it?" which I guess he made these areas that would have to add onto OoT?

[@mushroomwings3236]

Hey! Your videos are great, and I've enjoyed this one in particular! The slow dawning realization before you got to that actual point of realizing Majora's Mask, thought for a long time that as Zelda Gaiden it was just another expansion like Ura Zelda, actually is *in part* Ura Zelda itself was both freeing (because we finally known we actually have gotten it, just not in the way we expect) and upsetting (because it means if Eiji Aonuma hadn't had that talk with Miyamoto and began work on Zelda Gaiden we would never get one of my favorite Zelda games). I don't think you're too far off in thinking they likely pulled new dungeons meant from Ura Zelda to help put Majora's Mask together. Tho I would have liked to see Ura Zelda in a complete form, I am ultimately satisfied with what we did wind up getting.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

I mean while I would love to see Ura Zelda as they were intending, I imagine it'd still be less new content than what we got in MM as that is an expansion vs a full new game, so i'm glad with what we got

[@Mnemoniforma9.00]

Keep in mind, the Gigaleak's currently released contents are only a 10th of the overall infodump; there are multiple mysterious leftovers in both some earlier trailers and the final game that are not reflected in the stages of development that have been leaked so far. One would think that these artifacts were added at a later stage, but were ultimately cut and some may not have even been considered for use in URA Zelda, despite investigators' theories. I would like to see what leaks next, particularly pertaining to the Unicorn Fountain, the Light Temple and the areas depicted from 3:23 to 3:31 of this video.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

If you actually watch the last video I posted, that area you quoted was never meant to be ingame actually and was made for a tech demo (though using the N64's power). Unicorn fountain is what I really wish to see and yeah there is still ALOT of we have yet to see.

Majora's Mask was great, I'd rather have that than an Ocarina of Time expansion. Nintendo released the Ura Zelda/Ocarina of Time leftovers in Master Quest (I felt like the Master Quest's version of the Water Temple was actually easier), so overall I am pleased with that.

Really awesome story to discover, never knew back then when I missed out all the information about Zelda 64. Never had Nintendo Power magazine or internet. Wanted to know more about it. Sense I wasn't able to have a copy of Wind Waker, I see you could buy Master Quest, so I got myself a copy and enjoy playing it. Having Majora's Mask was exciting to have, I thought it was better then Ocarina. What got to me the most about Ocarina of time, is about the development of Zelda 64 beta. I remember look up on magazine pictures of the game see how the game would have look like when they start developing. Even I saw it once and never saw it again, I thought it would show in the final version. How ever it never show. So maybe it was all seeing and lost. Until finally I found out it wasn't all just first look and never again. Ocarina of time deserve to be something more, sad it never have every work in the game. If they were planning of bring it to HD, they should remake it

The Woodfall Temple in MM has a lot in common with another dungeon from another Zelda AlttP: the Swamp Palace. Was it meant to appear in URA Zelda A possibility. The Ice Temple I'm sure was meant to appear,: An Ice Medallion having been found. in the files of OoT. My theory is that in Ura Zelda, the Zora Domain would unfreeze after beating the Ice Temple. The latter became the Snowhead Temple in MM. I'm also positiitive that an Earth, Light and Wind Temples were set to appear as well, and got merged into the Stone Temple in MM. ùMy theory: After slaughtering all 100 all Skulltullas.in Ocarina, URA would unlock optional skulltullas dungeons. A Mask-Making feature was in the works. It'd be possible thanks to the Gameboy. Adult Link would use the Blade Beam in a similar manner to Fierce Deity Link in M. My theory is that you'd acquire the Blade Beam after the Light Temple.

Depending on the cartridge, N64 cartridges can also hold up to 64MB of data as well -- possibly more than this if you use multiple chips/banking techniques, but the largest game ROMs were 64MB, and that includes the N64 Resident Evil 2 port. In fact, none of the ROMs I have in my folder are any smaller than 8MB... 4MB was the size of the N64's internal RAM, and also the size of the Expansion Pak (adding an additional 4MB to the system for a total of 8). This might also be the reason why the 64DD failed to catch on, it's only doubling the amount of available game data you can have (unless you can hot-swap disks, which could allow for multi-disk games) while also killing the fast load times they had as justification for the limited cartridge space in the first place. Also, magnetic storage was likely not very cost-effective. I wonder, if the 64DD was optical-based, would it have had better luck? The 64DD seems to be a throwback to an older era, when in Japan, the Famicom Disk System was a similar add-on for the Famicom (that is, the Japanese version of the NES). It was in response to a both a chip shortage that at the time made it not cost effective to put games on cartridges, and a limitation in the ability to actually make mask ROM chips with high enough capacity to store games like... the original Legend of Zelda, which was first released on the FDS. It only came to regular cartridges years later. My suspicion is that they believed they could just do the same thing twice and get the same results, not taking into account how technology and market conditions change over time. By the time the 64DD was to be released, what incentive did developers have for releasing their game to require the 64DD, an expensive piece of add-on hardware that only grants them double the extra game data space (which loads slowly), also requires the Expansion Pak (also sold separately), and has slow load times that completely defeats the purpose the N64 was arguably made for (there's an argument to be made that the prevalence of high action games on the N64 ties in very well to its nigh instant load times, whereas conversely the Playstation got a lot of RPGs like FF7 that required its massive storage space and FMVs that the hardware was suited for)? You're aiming at a very small and niche market of mainly enthusiasts. In the words of Tony Stark, "Not a great plan." On top of that, it likely requires a lot of well thought out programming to properly take advantage of both storage media, and cleverly allocating data between the faster cartridge ROM and the slower disk. Plus, I don't think it solved the N64's infamous texture cache problem, did it?

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Oh this I know, but at the start 64MB carts weren't available. That didn't' come until much later when we got masterpiece ports like the Resident Evil 2 port on one of those. As for the Rom files, 4-8 MB was the start. Automobili Lamborghini and Dr. Mario 64 were 4MBs, while Super Mario 64 was 8. It slowly increased over the years to 32 becoming more a standard later for games like OoT and MM. Yeah I agree the 64DD is a throwback to what Nintendo did with the Famicom Disk System and the SNES Sataview. Problem was it didn't have the juggernaut audience or market it once did and was delayed constantly too (price didn't help it as well), and the disk size eventually became obsolete once the 64MB carts came out. In the end, as you say, it still didn't solve the N64's texture cache problem I either I believe, and in terms of storage stayed quite inferior to the PS1.

[@ZethN64]

I'd like to point out some misinformation, starting at 11:22 those are not my models. These were created by Naxylldritt just to improve his skills. They had nothing to do with the old Ura project. Second, Zocarina2 is basically a copy of Zocarina, even the Z2 dungeons files exist in it as well. Third, the smaller dungeon versions(or boss rush ones) you mentioned, most have the appended name, ddtes. This was mostly shorthand for Disk Drive Test. Based on how these maps are setup, including map, compass, and boss key. These were meant to be placeholders for the DD dungeons while the disk connectivity was being worked on. If these were meant to be a boss rush mode like we got in the 3DS version, there wouldn't be a need to give you a map and compass for a 2 room dungeon. In the files listed for making the Disk expansion, none of the ddtes files or the Z2 dungeons(Z2_DD_IKE or Z2ReDead) were listed for creating the disk expansion. They also have the name Z2 which has been internally known for Majora's Mask. It is possible that Anouma used the DD functionality for testing his idea of a new game pulling assets directly from OOT's cartridge. As its been known, Majora's mask started out on the 64DD before moving to cartridge. Lastly, the Zelda X title was never the logo for the DD version but a placeholder for Master Quest. The DD version does have its own title logo that differs from original OoT, MQ and MQ's beta.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Hey ZethN64! Glad to have you here! I'll make a note in the pinned post on it being not your model there. I was mainly showing it off for the levels tbh. As for the rest, I wouldn't call it misinformation: ZOcarina2 makes sense to have ZOcarina's dungeons in it since it was trying to expand upon those and thus had them as a resource. Has the Remixed Master Quest dungeons too showcasing what this folder was indeed meant for. Good note on the smaller dungeons, though I still question that it was simply a test or placeholder simply cause the remixed dungeons did simply overwrite the original dungeons. That and having that rearrangement of items are what makes me think it could be more than that. Hard to say truly, it was just a theory here. As for "Z2_DD_IKE or Z2ReDead", I don't think Aonuma needed to test by making two whole areas in order to see if he can pull from OOT. They had the raw assets to simply hit import and they could easily pull a test room even just to see if it works. It makes more sense with the DD in their name AND in the same folder that contained the remixed "Master Quest" dungeons that they were being intended for Ura Zelda before resources were moved over to Majora's Mask. Also the Z2 being in the name, it's quite possible that this reflected the name of the folder "ZOcarina2" to showcase the fresh new maps they were making vs the remixed ones in that folder, which may explain why a lot of the Majora's Mask maps also have a Z2 as they may have been making these originally meant for ZOcarina2 and why some don't have the Z2 as they may have been made solely for Majora's Mask. And I did say in the video that Zelda X was likely a placeholder, but maybe I should have been more clear that I meant Master Quest considering I did already show the DISK opening already in this video.

[@ZethN64]

@@TheObsessiveGamer I think maybe you're misunderstanding what I'm saying, ZOcarina2 is a literal copy of ZOcarina's repository. ZOcarina has all of the master quest dungeons in there, with all the same resources as ZOcarina2, including the Z2 dungeons. ZOcarina2's existence was probably made so any changes when making the MQ rom for the gcube release wouldn't effect the current ZOcarina repository resources. In the gcube release, they had taken out a lot of the DD functionality so it makes sense to have the secondary repository to make those coding changes. As for the Z2_DD_IKE and Z2ReDead, the reason they are in the ZOcarina/ZOcarina2's folders is because they were his test dungeons meant for Gaidan. These were probably his first designs while toying with the idea of still using the 64DD's connectivity with OoT's cartridge. While I understand they have full access to the raw resources, there is no point to waste space on the disk with a model if you can pull the models, enemy, music, etc from the OoT cartridge. However, it seems he decided it was best to make Gaidan a standalone Disk with no connectivity to OoT since it would only get messy and possibly limit what they could do. Further evidence of the testing theory can be seen since these two dungeons actually have scene entrances matching with the Deku tree and Jabu Jabu as well at the end of the dungeon, entering their respective boss rooms. Yet their entrance model designs don't match to the dungeons they replaced and their exits do not look like the boss rooms from OoT. As we have seen with how they design dungeons for OoT and MM, their models match the design of their dungeons and preview of boss rooms. Anything related to Gaidan/Majora's Mask starts with Z2. However, the Z2_DD_IKE makes sense if you think of it as the Gaidan project testing DD connectivity to OoT. You can check in Majora's Mask repository where all the map names begin with Z2, none of Master Quest's dungeon maps use the Z2 name.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

@@ZethN64 Oh yes I did misunderstood there. Yes I do see for the most part they are (Seems with a bit of searching, this was what ALOT assumed too). You can't assumed Z2_DD_IKE and Z2ReDead were simply test dungeons though, nothing actually points to them being such a thing. But I do agree that they may indeed have been what was being made to expand upon the OoT Cartridge as a part of Ura Zelda before not liking the idea. On a technical standpoint, they have no reason to rip a cartridge. They don't work like modders who have to do that, the raw resources of the OoT already makes it far easier to paste what they need to and it would waste any space since Majora's Mask was a seperate game afterall. Gaiden was never suppose to require OoT connectivity, it was supposed to be a standalone 64DD game. The scene entrances and exits don't mean much as a pointer to being testers realistically. When making any level, especially one meant for an add-on, I imagine thorough testing needs to still be given and thus gave it a placeholder entrance and exist till they make whatever it should link to in actually instead of leaving it blank. As I stated earlier, it being Z2 may have been a differentiation between new content and old content in the folder rather. The Remix dungeons aren't "new" content per say and rather it replaces existing content. If anything, look at the Majora's Mask folder and you would see not everything has a Z2 either. Maybe the Z2 originally referred to the maps being worked on for Ura Zelda before being moved to Majora's Mask where they kept the file name as it is all one engine in the end. The assumption you make seems to be that you think Gaiden needed Ocarina of Time to work, but it was meant to be standalone as a new game, thus testing Majora's Mask intended maps in Ocarina of Time wouldn't make any sense and rather it being made for a form of Ocarina of Time and the being moved over is what makes sense most here imo.

So it seems Majora's Mask miraculous 1 year development cycle was a success thanks to re-using OoT's engine, models and more (something we already knew); and applying ideas and assets from Ura Zelda (like those cut maps and a clock feature). And I thought Miyamoto was an evil villain (1 year is still crazy to think about but development was different 20 years ago, especially sequels).

Basically. It's a good development method really reuse old engines and left over ideas to make a new game and it's worked many times over.

19:57 what is that music that plays

[@AlinktoPersona]

Here's what I firmly is the actual reason for Ocarina of Time and Majora's being converted into a regular N64 games. The N64DD was meant to be released worldwide in 1997 with Zelda 64 as its launch title. According to Doshin the Giant producer, Nintendo decided to delay the add-on so it wouldn't with the Nintendo 64 itself. It most famous titles were cancelled, converted into cartriges or released on the PS1. By the time of its release in 1999, it was too little too late. MetalJesusRocks said that the N64DD had potential. That's what I keep saying. Nobodo listens. I don't think even Nintendo themselves fully grasped its potential. I would have killed to play Zelda 64DD, Ura Zelda and Zelda Gaiden. As well as having online gaming.

[@TheObsessiveGamer]

Maybe that could have been a part of the reason, but Nintendo did confirm loading times are the very reason the team decided to move it to a cartridge. The biggest problem was its price really. People wouldn't wanna pay more than the N64 itself for a simple add on. Heck people didn't do that for cheap adds on to the Sega Genesis even

Any chance you'll do a big compilation video with all of this content? Like one big video that covers all of this from start to finish? I know the playlist exists for a reason but I think it'd be awesome to have a big "Zelda Beta Cut Content REWIND" video. That and I think if enough people watched it, it might help you with that algorithm. Longer watch time, audience retention - you know the game playa. I also think having some Zelda remixes might spruce things up a bit, the originals are great but who doesn't like to hear an old favourite in a new way? I noticed that Zeltik guy always has some Zelda remixes going on in his videos which is why I bring it up.
