Original Fire Temple theme changed before Release?

According to GameTrailer’s Pop-Fiction team, the reasons for the removal of the original fire temple theme from Ocarina of Time have been debunked.

The Darker Side of Skyward Sword

[youtube]tPBbQGIYjJI[/youtube] We’ve all heard hard critics’ opinions on the impressionistic graphics of Skyward Sword. There’s one issue that most people seem to have with it: just how bright and happy everything looks. A youtuber named SUPERMARIOBROTHERS13 found a way to fix that and show us using some simple photo manipulation what a darker, more ominous…

“Zelda: Real Life” Parody

While we’ve seen videos in the past made to showcase just how absurd some of the traditions within the Zelda games would be in real life (breaking people’s pottery, holding items triumphantly above one’s head), it’s always nice to see another fresh look at the topic.
