windwaker is very good and one day some form of zelda with those same shading animation will be on a handheld, and probably get a high score

Cuz they're probably people who bought the zelda collector edition on NGC that had both of them and thought it was gay.

pretty much sums it up.
Majora's Mask is probably the best zelda game, OOT a close second.

The formula has totally devolved and lost all exploration and become completely padded and laced with filler. Skyward sword was amazing at what it did; motion controls, combat, graphics, music, thematics; but the game itself was lackluster, a huge linear affair with absolutely zero exploration.

Windwaker could have been good if it wasn't filler and fetch quested- if they actually had the budget to make a full game instead of half a game. Twilight Princess was atrocious- it was like Skyward Sword without any of the good parts of Skyward Sword (except maybe a twinge more exploration, but only superficially so)- everything robotic and linear, with tacked on controls and incredibly boring bossfights and absurd fetch quests with content spread too thin, trying too hard to be cool, a real poser of the series.

lol, i bought that.
it was only for Oot and MM though, i already have the first two on NES.

i shouldnt have sold my n-64 versions =/

You should leave, like... right now...
Wind waker may not have been the best, but it was a damn fun game!
Also, this poll has shown that very few people here have played skyward sword...

I don't like this poll, just tearing us all apart!!!

i voted 4 swords but tbh ive never played it or a few others on that list. The look of the gameplay didnt really appeal to me though.



At first i was discouraged, and never got it for the gc. but like 5 years later i borrowed it from a friend and it was amazing, the graphics were really refreshing and the game was really fun. There were a few things wrong with it though, mainly the annoying quests.

rofl wind waker is easily in the top 3, anyone who didn't play it on purely looks alone is stupid

Wind Waker.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the game, but I hated the time it took to travel between continents before you learned how to warp.
I also hated how I had about 90% item completion, and I was going to get 100%, but I got to the ending and beat it, without knowing my file was going to be reset once I beat it.
WTF, ALL THAT HARD WORK, AND YOU AUTO-RESET MY FILE? FUUUUUUU--- -ragequit-

I loved Twilight Princess. Took me forever to get into it though. It just felt sooo slow getting geared up, but once I was geared.. MAN.
The game was EXTREMELY easy, though. I even quit playing my main file because it felt too easy, so before fighting the final boss, I restarted my file and did a 3heart run. Was NO PROBLEM. Got to the final boss, beat him (without ever even seeing him before) on a 3heart run only using 1 fairy (lost 5 hearts total).

I loved Minish Cap. I never played it until I realized I had the rom on my PSP. Started playing and was ADDICTED till I beat it. Then I never played it again. Noo replay value. Never even finished 100%ing it.

OOT was mindblowing, for it's time. Still very much is.
Never played Majoras Mask. Never played Skyward Sword.
NES Zelda/Link are extremely fun. No doubt ZeldaII: The Adventures of Link is the hardest Zelda game in it's series. Too bad Shadow Link can be beaten with your eyes closed using power glove. The first NES one I love, and it's a BITCH when I try my ass off to do a 3heart run, only because the first boss is so damn hard to get past before killing (a heart piece is ALMOST required to pick up because of where it spawns after you kill the boss)
Link to the past was meh. Not amazing, not bad. Great for it's time, but held little replay value to me.
