zelda oot golden version

is this rare? is the case and booklet different than the normal version? how much does it go for boxed mint? is there also a version with a hologram?

 

Not that rare, but I saw a sealed one go for $102 on eBay.

I'd say up to $30 for a boxed/complete one, maybe $15 for the cart only. Maybe $40 for boxed/complete if it was mint.

I think the box is shiny, but not a hologram.

 

well, rare.... it's not really rare, but it's definitivly a must for any collectors.
the ''hologram'' zelda is the collectors edition for Majora's Mask, This collector ed. isn't rare at all. I personnally saw more MM collector ed. than normal ed.

to return to OOT collector ed. , the case can be easly identified with the with the relief on the zelda logo, the reflective colors and the colector edition sign on the right of it. The cart is gold, just like in the good ol' times on the nes ( :smt045 ) and there's no difference with the manual if i rememember right.

The Gold OOT (wich is the collector edition one) is ver 1.00 wich wasn't censored, unlike the other versions of the game. The main difference is the red blood, some signs that refer to religions and the music of the fire temple.
Intersting stuff.

can't help you with the price though, it vary too much.

 

There was a gold OOT in Australia I believe, the only PAL one. Maybe that is rarer?

 

damn... i did hear about a version having blood and stuff when i was like 11 xD, so this is the version, i want it , i thought all majorask mask where golden with hologram :S, so the normal version is more rare than the specail edition xD?

 

yeah, everyone heard of the famous ''Red blood'' version of OOT, but not alot know this version is the collector one, wich was made before every normal OOT cartriges and before the new censored version (so basicly, Gold OOT is ver.: 1.00)

The music of the Fire temple in ver 1.00 (the original, non-censored one) is way better too. With a religious, post-apocalypthic feel to it.)

I think ver. 1.00 is the only one with the URA DD expension traces in it (that where found) too but i'm not sure, can anyone confirm?

anyway, here's some pictures for you:


MM and OOT collector ed. boxes(notice the sunshine-like lines, the metalic colors of OOT collector. also note the rectangular boxes saying collector edition on both MM and OOT, much easier to recognize this way:smt043 )


MM and OOT collector ed. Cartriges


holographic MM collector ed.


Non-holographic MM, Much rarer than the collector ed.0_o


Common grey OOT

hope it helps. ;-)

i have majoras mask limited edition, 15bucks mint need that limited edition.... good thing i am going to get 500 bucks soon in a great transaction hehehe :smt023

 

sadly enough, the real collector edition of MM is the non-collector one, heh. (still, the collector ed of MM is way cooler than the normal one :smt045 )

and trust me, 500 bucks will be way too much for the gold OOT. ;-)

 

hehehe i know, max i will pay will be 100 for a copy in really really good condition

 

I don't think there was ever a non-gold version of Majora released, just the holo/non-holo versions.

Eva-01, keep checking in your local Gamestop if they still sell N64 games - we'd get about one gold OOT cart a week, and they go for the same $9.99 as the grey one. Sadly, the 'gold' paint is really poor quality, and tends to rub off easily, leaving a tan-ish colored cart beneath.

I wish. :smt009 Sadly, the N64 carts are neither as shiny as the old NES, nor is the paint as durable.

Now THIS has my interest - what traces are these, exactly?

 

And if you live in Europe you get the Absolutley common version of the N64 Zeldas! No rare versions for us (and we get Lame cartridge art for Majoras Mask).


And the Ura Zelda traces were bits of dungeons and stuff you could access using the gameshark, right? Stuff that was Going to be in Ocarina but they cut back due to time constraints? I'm not sure...but I know certain revisions of Oot don't contain these scenes (Such as the Temple of Light and the bruning Kakariko village scene)

 

They also edited the Fire Temples music. In the origional, there was a muslim chant in it (Basic muslim prayer, also mentions Allah near the end). Due to some idiotic soccer moms who complained to Nintedo and Nintendo Power, they edited the song out of the later gray carts. Also, in the GCN version, they changed the Gerudo symbol from the star and cresent moon (Turkish flag and common Islamic symbol) to something else.

 

Wait, so the original Zelda had the Muslims as the bad guys too? :smt043

I'm sorry, that was a low blow, but it couldn't be helped.

Anyways, back on topic and political correctness: Are the cut level parts (Burning Kakariko Village, Temple Of Light, whatever else) present in the GCN version - wasn't the 'Master Quest' game they released the same as the 64DD code that never made it out the door?

And does anyone have any websites detailing these Ura Zelda bits that one can access via a Gameshark? I have both a GS and the gold OOT, and I'm a sucker for beta code left in games. :-D

Semi-OT: It seems a decent amount of N64 games have unfinished code easily accessable with a Gameshark (007, Perfect Dark, OOT). Does anyone know of any other shenanigans that can be experienced with a GS and N64 games?[/quote]

Thats only from a quick google. I cant find the site that had all the cooler stuff The site had codes to access beta Goldeneye and Perfect Dark stuff too.

The Zelda stuff works best on emulation, I hear. I spent an entire evening reading through pages upon pages of Zelda beta stuff, I am a looooser ¬_¬

Found one of the sites I read through before -

i dont want a loose version :-( i want a version with booklet and box :-(

 

So which version of OOT was on the promotional Gamecube disc?

I actually have the disc, but I've never gotten around to actually playing it.

 

I lost my box and booklet :-(. The promotional disc contains the final clean version of Zelda OOT as well as the 64DD counterpart expansion called Uru Zelda which is based off OOT but with many things in the game switched around.

 

I saw some pictures on google showing the Log quest where you choose one of the three games with some DD expension traces, there was a new option or something , i can't remember what exactly. It was like a connection code for the future URA. The code was found using a gameshark. i tried to find it again, but i wasn't able to. :smt022

there's also some maps not used in OOT nor masterquest that were found. Alot of people think URA (or master quest) was suposed to more than just OOT with more difficult dungeons, as i do. I one interview i have in a magazine, Miyato talks about that famous URA and from what it looks like, they wanted to do a bigger project than what we finally get. :smt009 the game was suposed to use the internal clock of the dd by exemple, and there was a rumor about the triforce quest in ura.

i just hope an URA dd prototype will be found to finally be able to view a part the orignial project.

the interesting part of this is that if there was a connection code between OOT and URA, then you can say URA was really an expension, not just a Hard mode of OOT.

and right, there's no gray version of MM.

 

cahaz, I know what you are talking about:

http://zeldachaos.hostsurreal.net/oot.php?page=ootcc01.html

That was the image (And cheat) you saw. Also, wasn't the N64 rom for Ura Zelda already dumped? Maybe it's just something I heard, but I thought it was.

 

exact! this is the picture i was searching for, thx. :-D

the URA zelda rom is a urban web legend, sadly. Though, the master quest file on the promo disc can be readed with a n64 emu, if i remember right, As well as the OOT file. so basicly, the disc contain an emu made by ninty and two n64 roms.
