I decided to beat this game in regular then the masterquest mode on 3DS as a 3 heart run for both around this past Christmas. Good times.

For me Ocarina will allways be the greatest game ever made. The only people that will really understand why are the ones who played it at launch or in its time. I was 18 when played it and no other game has made me so obsessed since. There's been some greats like last of us and BOTW but Ocarina is the greatest for me and allways will be.

For me, some of the greatest games of all time are: Call of Duty 4, Minecraft, Sonic the Hedgehog, Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario 64, GoldenEye 007, Street Fighter 2, Need for Speed: Underground, Aggressive Inline, Worms 3D, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, Tony Hawk's Underground, Ultimate Alliance, Spider-Man 2, Guitar Hero 2, LEGO: Star Wars, SSX Tricky, Kya: Dark Lineage, and RuneScape. I am getting an N64 soon and hope to get Ocarina of Time. I have seen a gold one for £35. Not sure if it's worth it at that price. Thoughts?

I was 9 years old when Ocarina of Time was released, and I remember how big a deal it was. Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time changed the game industry, reinventing the wheel.

20 years already ????? Damn time flies fast, can someone give me an Ocarina, so i can teleport myself to the temple of time.

I love you guys, seriously. I grew up in this period, it was magical. Walking through chronic weather to get to my local mag shop, (3 mile round trip here in Wales) for my zx spectrum mags, then Nintendo, snes, etc over the years. Get home and read through them, jaw open at the stunning images of games to come. What makes oot more poignant for me is in my situation, my 'oot' friend, sadly took his own life many years ago, he was the one who could afford oot and a N64 first all those years before when it came out. I was mind blown, I couldn't believe what I was seeing, nothing else came close. Good times, good memories, and I love hearing guys like you gush over those sort of memories, I don't really have any friends left these days who are into gaming like me and you two, they're all far too normal 😂. Love the vids, never change 👌😁

My favorite game of All Time.

My first experience with Ocarina of Time was in early 1999. A friend let me borrow the game and his N64. And here’s the kicker... He lent me the strategy guide. But it wasn’t a normal guide. One of his other friends took the time to photo copy the entire guide. It was crazy big because he didn’t use both sides of the copy paper.

Ocarina of Time is my all time favorite game. I didn't get it when it first came out but I got it a little less than a year after (around Sept of 1999 I believe). I had originally rented it in early 1999, probably in February, after a friend of mine was saying "man you've got to play this game!!" And back then I had no idea what Zelda was and I was mixing up the title with that Viking Chess game back on the 64 because Zelda sounded Viking(ish) to me. Anyway he said "no man it's awesome, you've gotta play it!!" And so I did. I went to Blockbuster and rented it one weekend. I was blown completely away. I found that I was enjoying every aspect of the game. I remember going through the Deku Tree and just being amazed by everything I saw. A few months later I bugged my dad into buying me the Ocarina of Time Official Nintendo Power Player's Guide (which I still have) even though I didn't own the game. I was that in love with it. I rented it several more times and finally asked my grandparents if they'd get it for me. They agreed and I got it. I rushed to my room, popped it in the 64 and started my long journey!!! For the next 2 years that game was pretty much all I played, or well mainly what I played. I had beat it probably a few months after having it but I would go back again and again to the game doing extra stuff, collecting heart pieces, fighting Ganondorf over and over. To this day I still consider this to be my favorite in the series. I really enjoy the entire franchise but this game holds a very special place in my heart. It was a game that just absolutely meant the world to me. It was the first game with a real story that I played and it showed me what gaming could be apart from platformers like Sonic and Mario. This game actually made such an impact on me, that when I listen to the credits rolling, especially the version from ZREO as the Redux version, I tear up. I've played some amazing games in my life, FF7, FF8, Crono Trigger, and many many many more, and even they don't give me the same feeling as Ocarina of Time. Call me nostalgic or say that I'm a fanboy, but this game meant that much to me.

shit it been twenty years ?..........remember picking this up, it was sold out pretty much every where, we went to a small video game store & they had two copies left, managed to get one, great memorys, great game

I'm so grateful, to finally see you and Robman share your thoughts and memories with zelda ocarina of time, great video

I love this game with all my soul. I feel immensely emotional every time I replay it. It's my favorite videogame of all time and will always have a special place in my heart.

omg... can someone please make an animation of Johnny and Rob adventuring to Walmart and attempting to resist playing Zelda OoT? That would be hilarious.

I loved the video Johnny! I always love whenever we get to see Rob again as well. It used to be all the time lol I miss him being in so many videos. But I just wanted to say thank you for making and keeping up with the great, genuine content you produce. You guys are some of the coolest guys I’ve ever “met”, and I wanted to let you know, you’re videos make me very happy when I see them in my subscription box. Keep up the fantastic work Johnny, much love from Indiana

My heart! Ocarina of Time is still a unicorn to me. Perfection. So much to do, but not overly sandboxy. The soundtrack is one that I’ll listen to. Hell, today on Spotify, the soundtrack is all I’ll be listening to today. This game changed my gaming life. My Oma got it for me the Christmas it released. I played that til the wheels fell off. Man, such a beauty. The first boss scared me as a kid, it took me like 6 trys to finally get my courage up and beat that bastard. Then, as a kid, I thought I was done the game. THEN the whole world opens up. My fragile mind couldn’t believe it. So. Good. My fav in the series(I agree with you Rob) It was/is perfect. Thanks for bringing us down memory lane guys. Made my heart swell.

Another instant classic episode!!! Rob is the ideal Robin for Johnny's Batman.

Man this video makes me want to play this game again, thanks for sharing your memories, Johnny and Rob.

I’m a simple man...when I see Johnny and Robman in a thumbnail I click it

The music in Ocarina is amazing. I haven't played a game since where the music was so memorable.

Awesome memories, guys! Thanks for sharing! Great as always and can’t wait for the christmas special!

Man do I love watching you and Rob geek out and share your warmest memories of video game history. Thanks to both of you and happy holidays!

This channel is as much about the power of nostalgia and growing up in the '80s/'90s and the friends you had at the time as it is about video games. This is a good thing.

Johnny, the religious experiences and the passage of time with games is why I love this channel: Two things that I relate to deeply!

Just stumbled upon this channel today. You guys are fantastic to watch. Definitely one of my favorite now

The excitement of recalling your memories from back then makes me loves retro games even more, I can feel the glorious nostalgia through your stories.

These guys are so awesome! To see the love and excitement in a game goes beyond words! Ya'll have love and passion for the games you play and now you have a subscriber!! thanks and keep up the good work.

I love this video. It made me smile through the whole thing. It's stories about be being a gamer or a geek at a certain time, where it will never be that way again because if the internet. But then watching honest videos like this on KZread that are self created is a whole other time period for geeks. We don't even know each other but we all get a sense of who you are because of the videos you share. This may be the good old days in the future.

That snow storm you speak of in 1996 also hit NYC. I remember it vividly. It was a nightmare lol. I got the game on release day from Toys "R" Us in 1998 (I had reserved a copy) and binged played it snuggly in the warmth and confort of my home :) A great game and a great memory. You and Rob always hit the nail in the head when it comes to gaming nostalgia. Thanks for the upload.

Love it when you guys do videos together. 20years is crazy. I also just learnt that I'm the same age as Rob Man :)

You guys are the best. Your nostalgia, gives me nostalgia. I love your friendship. It's a beautiful thing.

Best game of all time!

One of my all time favorite games, I play once a year. Can't believe its 20 years old now.

As someone originally from Kamloops, I feel your pain with the greyhound trip to Vancouver during the winter...Love that you guys are Canadian! Thanks for sharing your stories about this classic Zelda game!

When I see you guys together it makes me smile.

Man I feel old. I remember Xmas day 1998. Loading the game for the first time. Good times

I enjoy the enthusiasm. Keep up the awesome videos.

This video really made me happy. The vibe you two give off is just heartwarming. I love Zelda so this really resonated with me.

I remember playing this back in 2004 for the first time. I was so happy to play it and this was after playing through a link to the past and the first game and it was amazing.

Always nice to see the Rob Man.

I've only just recently been watching all of your content, but I'm absolutely in love with your enthusiasm towards video games. Thanks for this man, it helps me relive the wonderful video game memories of my past with others who feel the same.

I'm 20 now and i remember playing it when i was 3-4 its been just over 15 years for me i still play it.

You two always have such amazing stories to share. Seeing a new video like this after quite some time really put a smile on my face.

Experienced this game on the gamecube back in 2003. My two older brothers trying to get past the first dungeon, this game was such a surreal experience at the time.

I first played Ocarina of Time through the bonus disc that was distributed with preorders of The Wind Waker in 2003. I didn't actually first play it until July of 2013 when I found it in a second-hand game store. It took me a fairly long time just to get through the Spiritual Stone half of the game for some reason.

It’s so entertaining watching passionate gamers reminisce about the past. It brings me back man to a better time 😊

what a coincidence, i am now reading and looking the Zelda Quadrilogy of books right now. - The Art & Artifacts - The Hyrule Historia - The Encyclopedia - The 'Creating A Champion'

i can't believe it's been 20 years. I was so hyped for this. i remember buying every game mag that even mentioned anything about it....i think i still have them sitting in my parents basement. Opening this up on christmas day 1998 was such a joy to my 15 year old self.

fantastic video, thank you two for sharing!

I was 16, Christmas present in '98. Followed from first screens. Was much love.

these videos like this are amazing. I love the game launch stories

I love seeing the perspective of the older generation. I was 3 and when I was 5 when I first played it.

i just turned 18 , was living with my aunt at the time , had preordered the game from kmart , at that time i was going to adult school to get my ged , and skipped school when straight to kmart got my game and went straight to play it , remember on that first day played for 16 hrs straight if i remember correctly , game was so awesome

I remember getting this game from my dad that Christmas. He pretended that every store had sold out of their copies and he wasn't able to get me a copy just to hype up the experience. I stayed up playing it all night while he passed out on the couch watching me play.

I was 7 and now I am 28. I remember coming home, and my brother came to get me saying I am Adult link now! And I was shock to see Adult link. But Yea. This game is the BEST ZELDA ever made Link to the past is good. but in that time it was mind blowing Still is

I was a freshman in high school, remember waiting until Christmas of 98 to see if I'd get the game or I'd have to wait and use some spending money I had saved. Sure enough my dad knew what I wanted, one of my favorite Christmas vacations ever alongside 1996 when I got the N64 and Super Mario.

This is too much fun! I can relate to some of this behaviors back in the days, hahaha.

You and Rob together make the best videos. So much fun watching these.

no one ever understood the "getting ready" to game part i knew growing up. its always been a ritual

Great memories, always good to see Rob back on the show.
