Some new details about how Ocarina of Time 3DS is operated have emerged.

The N64's The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was a huge critical success when it was released and Nintendo seem keen to replicate that success with the 3DS update. The new title is due to be released in Japan during the Spring and some new details about how the game plays have emerged.

During the game players can tap a camera icon found on the bottom screen and then use the circle pad to look around and aim projectile weapons. Once you tap the camera icon you can also physically use the 3DS to look around.

The ever-lovable Navi with her not-at-all-annoying phrase "Hey listen!" will alert you to her desire to speak by flashing up an icon on the bottom screen that you must touch.

The touch screen is also used to select items within the game and to switch between the inventory, map and equipment screens.
