10 Video Game “Mistakes” That Were Totally Intentional

The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time is one of the most highly rated and popular games ever made, but it also contained a few bugs. When Japanese studio Grezzo was given the job of remaking the game for the 3DS, it was expected that many of those bugs would be wiped out.

However, gamers were surprised when they got their hands on the 3DS version of the Nintendo classic and realised that plenty of glitches and errors hadn’t been removed from the game at all. The developers later admitted that this was all intentional and was done to preserve the memory and charm of the game.

Since Ocarina of Time was so popular and dearly beloved, the developers decided the best thing to do was to leave in the old tricks for people who wanted to use them. Some of the more serious glitches were removed, but the 3DS version still allows you to exploit the game in a myriad of ways, like clipping through walls to access blocked off areas.
