While ''Majora's Mask'' was based on the same engine of its predecessor, it added a very vivid Japanese art design, and a new "72-hour" game system, wherein Link has a set amount of time to complete each dungeon or task. The implementation of the new time limit system was flawless and added much to the depth of the game.

Majora's Mask required the N64 Expansion Pak, allowing for more detailed graphics and more characters per area.


''Majora's Mask'' added a varied assortment of magical masks to Link's arsenal, which upon being worn, would bestow special powers upon Link. The many masks, in addition to the time system, make ''Majora's Mask'' one of the most unique games in the ''Zelda'' series.

Unlike the GameCube and Wii VC version, you need the expansion pack in order to play the original N64 version.


Majora's Mask was later released on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] on November 24, 2003 as part of [[The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition]] and on the [[Wii]]'s [[Virtual Console]] service on April 7, 2009.
