8-Character Hex Version Code on Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D Cartridge? Doesn't Exist

Short Answer

There is no 8-character hexadecimal version code printed on The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D cartridges.

Why You Won't Find It

• Digital-First Release: In most regions, OoT 3D was primarily an eShop digital title. Version info is stored internally in the game's exheader / ncch headers, not on a physical label.
• Physical Cart Label: Retail cartridges (where they exist) show a standard Product Code (e.g., CTR-P-ZLDP for USA), not a hex version string.
• 3DS Versioning: The 3DS uses a Title ID (e.g., 0004000000033500) and a separate Version field (v0, v16, v32, etc.) visible only in system tools like FBI or GodMode9.

How to Check Version on a Hacked 3DS

1. Install GodMode9 or FBI.
2. Navigate to the title (SD:/title/00040000/00033500/content).
3. View NCCH header info – shows version (v0, v16, etc.) and build timestamp.

For the average user, the version is irrelevant—the game auto-updates via the eShop if a patch exists. You won't find an 8-char hex code on the hardware.
