    Default Nintendo's Zelda 64 graphics good or bad?

    Nintendo's Zelda 64 graphics were good because the had a sense of realality to it. They gave you a sense of "wow" every time you see them.
    I'm sad now.
    People get sad, don't they?
    Not like I am, though.
    I am sadder than you ever will know.

    Look at my avy.
    That is where I want to be.
    Away from the troubles of America.
    Away from the world.


    If we live, we shall die.
    If we die, we shall live.
    The innocent live no more.
    The world is consumed by evil.
    An evil no one can stop.
    Not even me.
    The evil man is here.
    Now we just watch as he destroys us.

    I think that OOT's graphics were good for it's time,just like TP's graphics are good for today.

    I personally think they look a little bad by today's standards. That's my main issue with 3d: eventually it'll look bad. Sprites always look good.

    Not that 3d doesn't look amazing at the time, though. I've also never really been one to worry about graphics, so good or bad it doesn't really matter to me.

    I though that for it's time they were great. Ganon's face annoyed me though

    Granted the face was a little, but even now I think that the 64 graphics were great. And granted I even like the 64-bit graphics, but these are still good even till today. I only find Twilight Princess as somewhat better.

    Well, one thing is for sure, in the time of that console generation, OOT was really amazing compared to the other games. And i'm not talking about the graphics only.

    And now after 2 console generations, its still a high rated game.
    And i as for myself, yeah the graphics still amaze me.

    Heck it is so good that it also came as a GC disc and even on the VC!

    While the graphics today have aged quite a bit, I think they've done a decent job of being playable 2 generations later. A smooth framerate is pretty big in that department.

    And I think we've gotten to the point where 3D graphics will age much better than they did with the Playstation or N64 era after their respective console generations have come and gone.

    You better recognize! BOING!

    Well, when you compare the graphics to those of the older games, then the graphics are really good.

    I would say they are quite good considering the technology they had back then. Think, they didn't have much tech back then so it was amazing that they got such good graphics in the game.

    So ya, the Nintendo 64 Zelda games had good graphics.

    The graphics were amazing for its time. After playing 2-D arcade games your whole life, you would be amazed when you fist saw Navi flying through Kokiri forest.

    I think the graphics were good, especially given the time. I still think they are pretty good, even if they don't compare to other games for X-Box or Playstation two and three.
    They retained a sense of realism, and moreover the colours amazed me the first time I saw them, and for a N64 game they still do. I don't judge games on graphics, but still, it can be nice to have one with 3D graphics.
    Overall, I think they were pretty good, and they added depth to the game.

    I think they were good because of the nice,peacefull feel to it. I especialy liked the entrance to the Forest Temple because of the peacefull feel about it.

    Well, they were good for their time, that's for sure. I mean, it stepped up to a whole new era in Zelda, 3-D.

    i don't care what anyone else thinks so don't try to tell me otherwise!!

    i never cared about graphics ever
    all i care for is
    1) game playability
    2) story
