I'd be interested if these were running at full speed but Pal N64 while great if you didn't know about these things,was always a letdown after seeing the NTSC versions.I traded my uk N64 when i saw Waverace running - big difference and it convinced me never to get another machine if it didn't allow intended speeds.Xbox and Gamecube were great in this respect and now with the current machines it's not even a big deal any more (does ps3 have pal60 mode?)

The only game i would likely get for Wii would be Pilotwings because both version were great(albeit big stupid bordrs for pal but Wii does away with them).

Pal Mario 64 was actually a little better than the NTSC version because it didn't slow down(horrible on NTSC) but Mario's general running and jumping speed was sadly reduced.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
