As the title states, today is the 10th Anniversary of the release of Ocarina of Time! :D (i'm surprised no one made a thread about this yet..) so, what have you done to day to celebrate?
I went to school with my Link hat (from my costume of Link from 6th grade), a green zelda shirt (although technically it was a WW shirt), a triforce drawn on my hand, and my zelda key-chain.
Wore my Link costume at some point, just for kicks. XD
Crap, I forgot the present! D=
I dont see the big deal. Im kinda tired of all the hype over OoT, its a good game, but enough. NP needs to stop making articles about it to. They should revisit some of the old zeldas, like 1 and 2, ALTTP, and MM. OoT was good, but I am tired of the celebration of OoT as it gets another year older.

I agree, since personally i prefer the games you listed over it (haven't played enough of 2 to compare it), but it's still cool to celebrate 10 years after the original release of any zelda game. Also, I do see the celebration for it since it was a step forward in zelda in bringing it to a 3D game.

Agreed entirely.
...but Majora's Mask is still the best 3D Zelda.
I feel old. But in all reality, OoT is fantastic.
And ten years is more than deserving of a celebration, especially for a game that constantly scores well in "Best Game of All Time" lists.

Yeah, the hype is still going because throughout ten years of countless video game releases, there hasn't been a game that has beaten OoT in highest average review scores and it is the second best zelda right next to link to the past imo.
To 'celebrate' i called my friend yesterday and reminded him it was the 10th aniversary and at school today i had a triforce drawn on my hand and 'happy 10th anninversary' written next to it.
Ah, I remember that fateful day, 10 years ago.
I was one of the first in my town to get it.
I played it constantley for almost a year.
Never left my N64.
Time sure does fly, eh?
It feels like it was yesterday when I finally defeated ganon with the blade of evil's bane.
Memories... :)
And to honour it's 10th year.
I'm doing the three heart challenge.
( Majora's Mask is still better. :P)
Never actually got to experience OOT on the N64 because I was too caught up with the awesomeness of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro to notice anything else game related.
What a great game. The first 3D Zelda, and while it isn't the best, it's awesome.
On this day I was dressed in my link outfit, while wearing some misc link jewlry, as in a necklace a pin etc.
I beat OOT in a few *4.5* Hours, then started playing the songs from the game on my custom Ocarina of Time.
It was a great day.
