Ocarina debuts on Virtual Console, but only in Europe for now

Ocarina is a game that not only helped cement the N64 with its 1998 release but innovated the genre of console RPGs by being the first to do a lot of features right, like Z-Targeting and a much smoother camera system than previous games had offered helping to secure its place as a fan favorite even 17 years after the fact.

It also happens to be a game that has been out of print for years, the same going for it’s 3DS relaunch and for some reason has been unavailable in digital form via the Virtual Console. Until Thursday. If you live in Europe.

Nintendo of Europe announced on their Twitter that Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, will make it’s debut this coming week for European Wii U fans. No word on a North American release, but it is sure to follow given digital production won’t sell out the way that Amiibos can.
