It's good that it is an OPTION rather than forced into using the gyro. They obviously thought about this and made allowances for people to play in the plane/train/car etc.

The music was in fact rewritten to mimic the N64 music engine, it's not just the old music /nerd

Would love to see Super Mario 64 given the same treatment in a 3DS remake...

Given the loving treatment this version has received, it's a shame the packaging didn't receive the same treatment. Even a collector's edition with gold cart and art book would have been well worth an extra $10.

It would be nice, but sadly I don't think they will because they already remade it for the DS. It's a shame though; it would control so much better on the 3DS with the analogue nub.

I'd like to mention that the sound DID get a massive upgrade from the N64 version- Mahito Yokota (lead composer of OoT3D) re-wrote most of the music and spiced it up, but Koji Kondo, the composer from the original N64 game, requested that it be as authentic as possible. Yokota then spent months configuring the music to be as similar to the N64 as technologically possible- the 3DS was built very differently, and some of the sounds were impossible to mimic, but he paid remarkable attention to being as authentic to the original as possible.
