Nintendo is apparently not making the upcoming Zelda game for the 3DS, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. According to the gameās Australian rating (via Aussie Nintendo), Ocarina of Time 3D is being developed outside Nintendo.
According to the Australian Classification Board, the game was developed by Grezzo Co., Ltd. That means that the upcoming title isnāt being handled by Nintendo EAD Software Group 3, who typically makes all the Zelda titles.
This isnāt such a big deal. For one, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D is a 3DS port, and the basis was developed by Nintendo EAD. For two, outside studios, like Capcom, have made fantastic Zelda games in the past. Itās not like Nintendo wonāt be checking to see if the gameās okay.
So, who is Grezzo? This is the studio behind 2010 WiiWare game Line Attack Heroes. Andā¦well, so far, thatās it. Grezzo, however, was founded by Koichi Ishii, who got his start as a planner on Final Fantasy, before moving on to design Final Fantasy II and create the Mana series of role playing games while at Square Enix.
Ishii, who has an impressive resume, left Square Enix in 2007 to found the Tokyo-based Grezzo. So while Nintendo isnāt doing the Ocarina port, the title does appear to be in very good hands.
