[fisharox]

I was looking for a zelda game for the gc besides wind waker and found the collecters edition with master quest on it. just like to know the differnece between it and normal Oot>.>

The difference is how to solve certain rooms and puzzles in dungeons I know there's more but that's all I can remember what's not different is the locations of places like dungeons and houses.

Notable differences between Master Quest and the original Ocarina of Time are different Gold Skulltula placements. I'm fairly certain that the placement of the Gold Skulltulas are only rearranged inside of dungeons, though. It makes sense seeing as how the dungeons have also been modified and are supposed to be a bit harder. Another difference in the difficulty, notably in the dungeons. The Fire Temple is by far, in my opinion, the hardest dungeon in the game as opposed to the Water Temple in the original. The Water Temple, in fact, I found easier in Master Quest than in the original, which is a bit odd. Maybe I understand harder puzzles but not easier puzzles. I'm fairly certain those are the only differences, though.

The BEST feature is to skip the Water Temple. Let no one tell you otherwise.

was the Master Quest sold as a game cartridge on it's own like the original for N64? what year did it come out?

The difference between those both games is that the master quest is difficult bosses, dungeons, and puzzles. The ocarina of time is just any regular game. But the game was epic!

The dungeons are different, and that's all. They have the same layout as in the regular quest, but you don't progress through the rooms in the same way, & the puzzles and enemies are more difficult. I think the bosses are the same though. Everything in the "overworld" is identical, though.

And no, it was never released by itself. The Master Quest is part of a GameCube release including both OOT and the MQ, combined on one GC disk. I think (but am not sure) that the disk was a preorder gift for the Cube.
