The Legend of Zelda:<br />
Majora’s Mask<br />
I don’t know much about the Legend of<br />
Zelda games on the N64, but I do know<br />
that this game involves having 72 hours<br />
to save the world, and you have different<br />
masks to help you in your cause. You can<br />
use the “Ocarina of Time” to travel back in<br />
time and start the 72 hours over and over<br />
again until you finished the game.<br />
U3<br />
Although the game speed is very good,<br />
the glide64mk2 plugin once again has issues<br />
with being too dark. Since it can’t do the blurry effect, the game stays at full speed the<br />
entire time. However, because it’s too dark, it’s sometimes hard to find a way, but it’s<br />
not as dark as it is when played on the XU3, where nothing is visible. I consider this<br />
fully playable.<br />
C1 - rice plugin<br />
The game worked surprisingly well on the<br />
<strong>ODROID</strong>-C1 with the rice plugin. There were<br />
no graphical issues, but the introduction and some<br />
scenes were slightly laggy. Overall, the game is<br />
very playable on C1 with the rice plugin.<br />
C1 - glide64mk2<br />
The game runs at nearly full speed, but suffers<br />
from the same darkness issue as the U3. Rice is<br />
probably the best plugin for use with this game<br />
when played on the <strong>ODROID</strong>-C1.<br />
XU3<br />
The overall experience of the game is quite good. When there are cutscenes with the<br />
blurring effect, the game slows down and becomes laggy. However, since only occurs in<br />
cutscenes, the gameplay is fine. However, there’s another issue which is related to glide<br />
plugin, which is that the graphics are too dark, makes it hard to figure out which way<br />
to go. It got so dark that I switched to the gln64 plugin, which had<br />
some minor glitches with the ground, but otherwise worked perfectly<br />
at full speed. It was not so dark that you couldn’t see where to<br />
go, so using gln64 as a plugin for this game worked great.<br />
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of<br />
Time<br />
This is the predecessor of Majora’s Mask. I actually had a hard<br />
time enjoying the game, but I know that it is supposed to get better<br />
over time, and there must be a reason why so many have it on their<br />
top 10 list, so I gave it a try.<br />
U3<br />
Generally the game works fine and is at full speed, with some<br />
minor issues with shadows and ground textures. In some places, it<br />
