I think the number one N64 game easily. Probably one of the best of all time.

The grand daddy of adventure games.

GameCube Version

A GameCube version of OOT was made available with collectors editions of Wind Waker and included the original game, plus a 'Master Quest' mode. Which also means you can play it on the Wii.

Sales

Within six months of its release, Ocarina of Time sold more than seven million copies and since its release, 7.6 million copies have been sold.

Soundtrack

The soundtrack of Ocarina of Time was produced by Pony Canyon and released in Japan on December 18, 1998. It comprises one compact disc with 82 tracks. A US version was produced with the same tracks but different packaging artwork. Many critics praised the music in Ocarina of Time, although IGN was disappointed that the traditional Zelda overworld theme was not included. In 2001, GameSpot labelled it as one of the top ten video game soundtracks.
