As someone who hates most 3D LoZ Dungeons, the first dungeon of Twilight Princess rocked my socks off. The use of the boomerang was brilliant, right down to the boss. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite LoZs.
Fan site Hidden Triforce has put together a summary of changes implemented into The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D compared to the original release. Check it out below:
The expected
Reworked environments with new props and decorations placed around
Improved character models with smoother animations at 60 FPS
3D capabilities on 3DS, motion controls, touchscreen features
Bomber’s Notebook
Now given to Link by the Happy Mask Salesman
Will show you your current quests
Bomber Gang will give rumors regarding what to do next
Alarms can be set to keep track of events that takes place at certain hours
Saving
Can now have up to three save files on a single copy of the game
Owl statues are still used and can now save permanently; no longer need to be activated by striking them with a sword but with simply using the action button near them
There are now Feather Statues across Termina which save but cannot be warped to with the Song of Soaring
Sheikah Stones
Have returned from Ocarina of Time 3D, still provide video hints
Song of Double Time
Move time forward to an hour of your choice
Pictobox
Now has its own icon on the touchscreen for taking multiple pictures
Fishing
Two fishing holes have been added, one near the Shooting Gallery outside the Southern Swamp and the other in the Great Bay
Free fishing with a Fishing Hole Pass, redeemable for a single use
Choice between a standard fishing rod and a rod with a Sinking Lure
There are 10 kinds of fish to be caught
Clock Town Changes
Bomber Gang kids are no longer found at the same location
Clock Town bank has been moved to the main square
Masks
Most masks look the familiar, but the Garo’s Mask now looks like the Garo Master’s mask
With the Giant Mask, Link can now swing Twinmold around by its tail and smash it into the ground
Deku Link can now shoots fully charged bubbles in a straight path
Bosses
Strange eyes behind the boss’ masks, now the weak points of the bosses when they are stunned
Look like the eyes on Majora’s Mask
Circle Pad Pro
The game supports Circle Pro for playing on the standard 3DS and 3DS XL.
It's weird looking at the design of this remake. They bent over backwards and busted their asses to not add or change anything to OoT and keep it as 1:1 to your original memory as possible.
Not here. So many quality of life changes.

The Salesman gives you the Bombers' Notebook? Why? I mean, you still need to do their game on the first cycle, right?
Probably so you know what to do right away.
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

Whoa, that change to the Giant's Mask sounds... intense. That fight was kind of easy enough already, though; I wonder if it'll be a bit harder as a result of the addition?
I like the sound of all those changes though. I'm really excited for this.

So call it "The Salesman's notebook" then.
Not sure I see the issue as you'll have to go through the bombers anyways to even get started on the game, and provided you can't leave the city that's trivial to figure out at some point. Seems like a completely unnessecary change.
I'll add that I welcome most other changes. Some seem unnessecary but I don't care either way.
It's also probably for when you're walking around the town for your first time on the first day with no idea what to do, you're picking up and registering people in the book as you talk to them.

It's nice to see some of those annoying little issues being dealt with. Nintendo and Koei Tecmo are really doing right by this game.

Yeah, but the first time through, they don't give you the notebook because you're a Deku Scrub (speciesism, yay!)
A lot of people never went back to repeat the hide and seek thing with the Bombers once they were human again, so they never found out about the notebook.

Hopefully they add a potion to increase Gold drops. Argorok is really stingy for some reason. The other bosses drop at a fair rate, but that winged bastard almost always gives me weapons.

Okay, I've had Hyrule Warriors for about a month, and I just found out that you can start sprinting instantly by just holding the dodge button.
They should put that on the loading screen. In big letters.
(I also learned that I can dodge-cancel out of Ghirahim's annoying end-of-attack animations, but that doesn't help when his base damage is still so low. I need good weapons for him, ASAP.)

There are materials+ weapons though.
I'm using weapons with materials+. Only Argorok is greedy with me.
Here's a hell of a tip I could have used at the start. Materials and loot and stuff are auto collected at the end of the stage.
And here I was getting annoyed during the early stages, making sure I picked that shit up because I didn't want to waste it.

Blah, did the 1000 hits on Orca the first time, guess you're not supposed to. He gave me the Piece of Heart, but no ruppees, and he doesn't call me Master. Not doing it again! :P
I'm on something like my fifth attempt to get Lara's lvl3 Deku Stick weapon, and I still haven't figured out a way to fight effectively with it.
On top of having a crappy weapon, I have to break off whatever I'm doing to escort the cucco. If I don't, I get thrashed by a pissed-off gold cucco. If I do, Volga has a habit of getting thrashed by half a dozen tough enemies before I can reach him to bail him out.
If you have a second controller, there's always the trick of stashing the forced choice somewhere hidden then using overlevelled monster to rampage through the level.
I don't know if there's a great choice on that map for where to stick her.

The Deku Stick is very nearly my least favorite weapon (second only to Agitha's parasol). When I'm forced to use it, I generally spam either YYYYX (the deku leaf combo) or YYYYYY (the exploding ice shards). The leaf combo is a better all-purpose move, though you should try to cancel out of the "floating" part. The exploding ice combo seems to do more damage, but has a nasty pause, which leaves you open to attack. Sometimes I use it against single targets, but only when I'm sure there's time to pull it off. The YYYX combo would be good if it ever actually hit anything, and YYX (the slingshot) should be avoided at all costs. The weak-point move seems pretty good, at least.

Lana's spear is pretty bad. There are, from what I can tell, two ways to use it. If you are killing crowds of mooks, her full attack chain is what you want (shattering the ice). Her C2 is what you use for breaking weak points, use the two air attacks after you are in the air. Oh, and if you are fighting a giant boss her weak attack chain is good for that as well.
I don't remember the mission itself super well as I found it fairly easy and got it on my first or second attempt, but I softened up the commander nearest Volga while waiting for the cucco to spawn.

OoT Impa kinda looked weird.

(It was one system per order, apparently BB is going through and looking for shipping/billing addresses that made multiple orders.)
I would pay a dollar for a Skyward Sword Impa outfit and I would never go back
On the one hand, this should be standard practice. "Sir, why do you need A THOUSAND Rosalina amiibos?"
On the other hand, there are legit reasons for multiple copies to go to the same household.

Anyone find a combo move that kills Deku Baba? There are a few don't get hit stages that also take away items.
I A ranked the level after a few tries. But damn it would have been great to kill those bastard plants.
