It’s true that The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask uses the same game engine as Ocarina of Time. But did you know that the character models for Link were different in both games?

Link’s model in Majora’s Mask is more detailed – he has a strap for his sword, and there are differences in the ears, hair, boots, and tunic. In some ways, these are lots of subtle touches that really add up when you compare the two models side by side.

You might be interested to know that the Goron models are different in Majora’s Mask and Ocarina of Time as well.
