Imagine, if you will, being sucked into a parallel universe in which the original Nintendo Entertainment System was exactly the same, but games like The Legend of Zelda were rendered in 3D. Don't know what I mean? Watch this clip.
3D Dot Game Heroes—a PS3 title that's already out in Japan and coming to North America in May—celebrates an 8-bit 3D aesthetic not unlike the strange alternate universe I described above. But on top of that, its built-in sprite editor allowed Game Informer's Tim Turi to take the game to its natural conclusion by skinning the game with Link and adding a remix of Zelda's score.
The effect? Well if you can articulate it more elegantly than my pseudo-Sliders explanation, go ahead. [Game Informer via Joystiq]

how the hell have they got the depth of field so perfect? puts Little big planet 3-D to shame.

I would definitely revisit this version.

Definitely cool! Legend of Zelda is definitely one of the best games ever in history, even if not 3d. Guilty of many sleepless hours. :lol:
Would really be a cool 3d-"revisit". I'm looking forward to this!

Hopefully Nintendo is planning a real 3D Zelda on their 3DS.
