Would OoT 3D be a contender if it got a reasonable bracket placement?

It would beat fodder games on its name alone, but I don't think that people actually like it that much. They'd just be voting for it as a proxy for the N64 version. But "inferior remake of good game" would lose to actual strong games.

Doubled by Portal 2 here. Could see it doing better than that in a bracket, but maybe not.

I think it would lose a ton of support because people wouldn't accept it as game of the decade from 2010-2019. People do as a general rule tend to vote based on the premise of the contest - we saw it in rivalry rumble especially but I think it'll generally stand true that a lot of people will say "Ocarina of Time isn't a game from this decade so I'm not going to vote for it."

It's hard to say how much support, though. It most certainly would not be the weakest game in the bracket. I'd probably put it around, like... ugh geez I don't even know. I'd still take it to win 2-3 matches probably.

I think you have to take this especially with a grain of salt, people don't generally vote for a game they've already played before as their favorite game of the year. GOTD 2 doesn't QUITE have this same problem.

POTD means fuck all as does GOTY most of the time

This is friggin OoT.

and Majoras Mask 3D was the one people hated

Obviously it wouldn't be anywhere near OoT but i'd put OoT 3D just slightly lower than LBW in contest strength.

There is no way people are going to stand for a flat out port in Game of the Decade, and the fact that its so known would be its Achilles.

Blind Fanboys probably would.

OoT is my #1 game of all time with a bullet point. Not even close. And I enjoyed OoT 3D but it was more nostalgic driven than anything. In that poll i'd have voted for MK or Dead Space 2. Hell on that list Witcher 2 is my fav game on that list but i didn't play it until it came out on 360.

To be fair......Persona 4 Golden is a port. Enhanced and with more content but pretty much the same as OoT only OoT doesn't have as much content.

If OoT had an extra dungeon or two it would be just as viable as Persona 4 Golden. More so because graphcially OoT looks significantly better than the N64 game whereas the Vita remaster has the same models just crisper.

If HG/SS can do well, OoT 3D should do well. I know one is a port while the other is a remake, but will voters care about the difference?

Who is to say that P4G and HGSS aren't going to flop though?

I think they will. I don't think they'll want a game that isn't from this decade winning Game of the Decade.

Yes, for a very simple reason: one game is an enhanced version of Ocarina of Time called Ocarina of Time (with an added '3D', big whoop), whereas the other is an enhanced version of Pokmon Gold / Silver called Pokmon HeartGold / SoulSilver. Even if HGSS wasn't any more different from the original than Ocarina 3D, the two games' nomenclature would likely make for a significant gap in voters' perceptions.
