Arwing in Zelda: Ocarina of Time - CtrlAltDestroy - 08-19-2012 04:58 AM

It is a commonly-known fact that there exists an Arwing in Ocarina of Time, accessible with a cheating device.

However, did you know that it was used to program Volvagia's flight pattern? When Ocarina of Time 3D was released, Iwata admitted in a conference that OoT's programmers had copy-pasted an Arwing from Star Fox 64, complete with its physics and motion pattern, and changed out its model for Volvagia. Indeed, the Arwing and the dragon boss share the same physics.
