3. History

4. Traditional Zelda Same story as the original with a twist
Main characters and items remain the same
Menu and item selection very similar

5. New Zelda 3D environment (1st & 3rd person)
Target audience young, yet the game appeals to older children & adults (including spectators)
Excellent graphics & Entertaining

6. Downsides?
Nintendo 64 is cartridge based and therefore limited in content (midi like sound becomes repetitive)
Interaction with characters is flat whereas in a CD based console system, real voices could be used.
Story is somewhat linear - the player has less control over the path of the game.

7. Downsides continued
AI is predictable and is easy to pick up on immediately.
