Ocarina of Time is now almost 12 years old. It took the already popular Zelda franchise into the third dimension, which wasn't entirely as common practice in those days as it is today. The dimension transition wasn't only successful, it revolutionized gaming, just like the original Legend of Zelda did. Today, few top-games of all time lists exclude this classic. Two years before there was Super Mario 64. It took the established Mario series to the third dimension just like Ocarina of Time did for Zelda. It is likewise considered one of today's all time greats. Calling this transition a success is also an understatement, because Super Mario 64 revolutionized gaming as well. Not only that, but it revolutionized Ocarina of Time: the game said to have revolutionized gaming.
