Nah, just Majora's Mask that needs the Expansions.

I don't think The Ocarina of Time could have used the expansion pack as it wasn't out then.

Yeah, if you turn in the high-resolution function on my games they go really slow and jerky. But you can make out that they look a lot better and more realistic!

But I think you need a decent TV and maybe a Scart Lead to get the best. I'll try it if I get a new TV at the end of this month for my birthday. And a scart lead.

Turok 2 is compatible but it just creates tons of slowdown if you turn it on

I remember these games needing the expansion pak... Donkey Kong 64, Zelda:MM and Perfect Dark (need expansion pak to appeciate the game fully)

A few other games apparently gave you better graphics with the Pak. South Park and ROgue Squadron Are the only two I can think of at the moment. Didnt notice any difference at all though really.

Nah, Majora's Mask does though.

We all pre-ordered? Im doing so very soon..

Umm, I have seen these like 8cm mini disk's like audio cd's but 8cm, has anyone else seen these? Maybe GC supports them.. and maybe.. Maybe.. DVD people will make DVD's on a 8cm disk, thus giving the GC DVD playback, but I doubt it :o)

Ocarina of Time does NOT require an Expansion Pack to run.
But Majora's Mask does.

It apparently improves the graphics and stuff, but personally, I can't see any real difference!
Maybe it's cuz my TV's big, old, and pants??

No, I think MM does but this doesnt. It came ut before the Expansion Pak was released.
