Don't know if it was posted before. Beta Kokiri Forest running:
All itens high res renders:
Except the Master Sword oddly.
Reminds me of the password-protected sites you'd get at E3 to download media assets back then.
Woah, that seems like either an old version of the Chukya, or like some reskin fight of King Bob-Omb.
At this point? I might just make one.Personally, I was hoping someone would make a thread.
Oh, I bet it is. My years at E3 were the during transition from CDs to URLs. (Still got an archive of those media CDs.)

Where's this place?
Reminds somehow Hyrule Castle interior, but I'm not sure.
Imo, it's an early pre-rendered version of the area where you meet Zelda before they made it real time. That's just my opinion.
Nah, it's exactly the same in the final game:

Say it 3 times fast and a rep will be with you shortly to take you on your booth tour!
Is that one the rooms used to promote Twilight Princess tech demo?

This is just the Kanji for Monday to Sunday in Japanese. I fail to see how this confirms 7 days? I can see if they found some sprites saying "Dawn of the Fourth Day"
I honestly can't think of a fandom that works as hard and passionately as Nintendo fan-artists. They work so hard, so fast and at an incredible quality too
We already knew that Majora's Mask was originally planned to have 7 days but was cut down:
The three-day timer in Majora's Mask was originally set for a week

If it's not from Majora's Mask, maybe Animal Crossing 64?
Just got here and this is so fascinating and exciting. OOT and MM still have this glorious mystique to them and I fucking love seeing this temp stuff pulled out. This thread is long and hard to follow, are all the assets in one place to view in one place for a dummy like me yet?
The post in 4chan typically has a archived history of what threads to follow. And there's a pastebin you can look into, as well as a Google Doc overview document you can read to peer those contents.
You can't deny, the fonts hinted to me the Legend of Zelda universe is actually an extended ninja/medieval universe.
That was definitely for the best, to pack the three days with content. It's intriguing how many memorable aspects of Majora's Mask were entirely down to the scant year they had for development time (reusing many models from OOT made Termina a mirror world instead of just a new place, the three day format instead of seven, etc). A lot of it contributed to the surreal tone, I do wonder what the game would be like if they had two years instead.We already knew that Majora's Mask was originally planned to have 7 days but was cut down:

Never thought we'd see a cut enemy that isn't Blargg, let alone one that is totally unique!
I believe these textures match the paper textures in the Bombers Notebook, thus denoting scheduled days.

Well when you put it that way...
Would be interesting to see a mockup of the bomber's notebook with these new textures.
I'm really glad they cut it down to three days in the end; nice to see some remnants of that original plan though.
Couldn't help but laugh the original texture looks just like what was shown on TV.
We're never gonna definitively know what it says.
Isn't this the point where we need to use ESRGAN?

It's defined as such, but the texture isn't convincing to some of us.
Someone found there's a spriting software developed in-house by Nintendo, similar to GraphicsGale.
It's located inside the Super Mario Advance directory, and it's called "SCad.exe". The application dates back to at least 1999, and can open proprietary graphics files used with SNES, GB, GBC, and GBC games.

By the way, this means it's cool and all, but we can't really use it. If you do use it, that's actual grounds for suing. Nothing can be made with this and sold or used in any project.
The only story I know is that there's a story plot in Dr. Mario....
OMG, this changes so much about Dr. Mario...
