Although the creator says their goal <em>wasn&#8217;t<\/em> to perfectly replicate the Zelda games on Nintendo 64, we think it looks spot on.<\/p>\n<p>The creator further explains how &#8220;all 3D assets (characters, environments, \u201ceffects\u201d) are modeled, rigged, animated, and textured&#8221; in Autodesk Maya 2009 and Photoshop. And then goes into a much more detailed breakdown:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The video frames are natively rendered at 240&#215;320 (4:3) resolution at 30 fps, but is intentionally frame posterized to show at 15-18 fps and enlarged with no anti-aliasing or image softening to 1920&#215;1080 (16:9) for upload. There are always supposed to be black bars on the sides; black bars on the top\/bottoms during the \u201ccutscenes\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The music and sound effects were handled by <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/www.youtube.com\/vince94\">Vince94<\/a>.
