They put a targeting system in a 3D game, no one would've thought to do that ever without Ocarina, targeting never would have existed! EVER! Targeting. Yep.
You're missing that it's about implementation. Anyone can have any idea to put something in a game, especially when it comes to how a camera works. If it was all about just thinking it then every game would have a great camera. They deserve lots of credit for their execution on targeting at the time.
Mario 64 deserves its credit for 3D camera work too. Other developers tried to do the same thing, they just didn't do it as well.
