All the prerelease screenshots and trailers available for Majora's Mask,
now in one place. Lots of commentary to note the changes that took place during the game's
development.

Haven't looked at everything yet, but what I've seen so far is a nice collection One little thing, tho:


August 23rd, 1999

http://www.glitterberri.com/content/zelda_series/mm/interface1/1999%208%2023/Zelda2ign.jpg

Several odd textures in what looks to be an old test area. While a test map similar to the one in Ocarina of Time is still present in Majora’s Mask, it doesn’t look quite as interesting as this.

Isn't that just a really early Termina Field? Always looked like that to me, anyway. Maybe this place here, to be exact (or nearby or so):

The similarities are striking. But still, some rather odd textures they used there.

Oh, could be, good call. I'll edit that. And thanks for the reference screenshot! I'll link that too, if you don't mind.

Sure, you might want to upload the screenshot on your site, tho, since it's just on imgur and not my own hosting. Dunno if or when it might disappear from their servers.

One thing that came to my mind after I looked through the lot a second time...



Hmm, where have I seen that before? Why yes, it's in the TCRF, in an area which normally cannot be seen in the final game:



So they did in fact plan to have the Clock Tower like that. They just never bothered to change the model afterwards since you cannot normally see it anyway.

I'm rather inclined to believe the official line in that it was just a tech demo, much like 128 Marios or Yoshi's Story GBA. Two character renders and a rather minimal scene do not make a game, and it's not like there was ever any question about whether there would be a Zelda game for the system.

Yeah, it's probably just a demo. If anything, it's closer to Twilight Princess.




I don't know how to describe this face.

Something akin to CHARGIN UP LAZAHS, I'm guessing.

I liked the windwaker's art a lot more than that demo. Windwaker still looks nice now.
