N64 vs. 3DS
N64 vs. 3DS
Majora's Mask 3D (2015) follows the Nintendo 64 original closely but moves, swaps and adds a number of things. This list only contains differences confirmed by the game data behind this app. The map links below always point to the version you have selected in the app.
Rewards that changed
Things that moved
Only on 3DS
- Two fishing holes: Road to Southern Swamp and Zora Cape.
- The Mystery Milk side quest with Gorman on day 2, which awards a seventh bottle.
- Save statues in many areas and every temple (see the Owl Statues guide). They save but cannot be warped to.
- Mikau can be healed for the Zora Mask on any day.
- The Song of Double Time lets you pick the hour to skip to within the current day; on N64 it always jumps to the next 06:00 or 18:00.

Schedules
Most people keep the same routine in both versions. Where the 3DS Bombers' Notebook shows a different window, it is noted in the relevant guide. Examples:
- Madame Aroma waits in the Milk Bar from 18:00 on the final day on N64; on 3DS she is already there from 10:00.
- The Anju & Kafei reunion starts at 04:30 on N64; the 3DS notebook lists it from 05:00.
- Sakon's robbery happens 00:20–00:30 on night 1; the 3DS notebook lists 00:00–01:00.
