My personal ranking would be:
1. A Link to the Past – SNES 2. Link’s Awakening – Game Boy 3. The Legend of Zelda – NES 4. Ocarina of Time – Nintendo 64 5. Majora’s Mask – Nintendo 64 6. Twilight Princess – GC (i felt it was way too easy)
Sadly i didn't play Oracle of A/S, Windwaker and all the other GamboyColor or GameboyAdvanced titles. I own Windwaker but somehow just didn't start playing it yet.
Would someone highly recommend one of the GBC / GBA titles?

Majora's sucked balls. The orginal, OOT and Link to the Past are the best, though I never really played LttP besides at my friend's as a little kid because I was a loser who had genesis!
I think this is a pretty sweet quest you've set up for yourself heh
|
I have the feeling that every single Zelda game right after Wind Waker just feels..."bleh" I just don't feel that charm the older games have, I played Twilight Princess for the GC and I simply couldn't stand the game, just felt plain weird.
Good luck with your journey man, it would be cool if you could record some small footage of each game and tell what you like about it and such, but hell, that might be a lot of work. Finishing every Zelda game + keeping us updated in blogs is already quite time consuming ![](/mirror/smilies/smile.gif)

You know what? I think I'll join in. Although I don't own a Wii so Skyward Sword is going to be difficult to play, but that's the last game on the list anyway so maybe I'll have figured out how to make that emulator work by then
the original Zelda is going to be such a trip down memory lane
|
Also, you know you have to do the second quest for all of them no walkthrough as well too, right?? I still never beat the original second quest... I should get on that.
|
I think MM was the one Nintendo game I've ever gotten physically upset with, to the point that I was about to snap my controller in half.

I don't think WiiMotionPlus has been emulated, and I question whether it is possible to do so--you're probably going to have to drop some serious $$$ if you want to play SS (It is really a great game though)

Anyways Im ranting a bit, but basically as I got older I was more interested in multiplayer games, smash bros, Mario kart, SC:BW, SC2, LoL CS, etc. And never had time for single player games I loved and enjoyed being a kid without siblings. So now basically I want to go back and try to enjoy the single player experiences I missed and bring back some nostalgic joy in my 2012. Thanks for reading and I hope you follow my resolution this year. SOOO TRUE!! If there's anything I can relate to, it is fucking THIS!! Before playing/finishing Skyward Sword couple weeks ago I hadn't touched a single player game in years, and I was so damned hesitant to start the game even though I had bought the collector's edition and all
So fucking glad that I managed to convince myself to play through the game, I had almost forgotten the magic of well-crafted single player games.

After you are done play the Golden Sun series for a mix between Zelda and Final Fantasy. Imagine them together :D. Plus, they changed some stuff between Golden Sun and Golden Sun Dark Dawn. Golden Sun was for Game Boy Advance I believe and GS: Dark Dawn was made for the DS.(no weird 3D required <3) Oh and, the game has lots of spells that you have to use to progress from mission to mission. The farther into the story line you go the more imaginative it gets and the more spells you have to use. Sometimes you end up just trying all the spells at once to try and get past a single area only to realize that you just needed to push it with your hands or that you were going the totally wrong way xD.

Don't get me wrong, I fucking love Majora's the concept is so fresh and new and the dungeon difficult swamps anything that OoT did but never have I banged my head against a wall for any game until Majora's mask.
It's such a brilliant yet under appreciated game, The reason it's under appreciated is because a lot of people struggled to deal with the fact that theres 3 time phases and the fact you need X mask to do Y and to get to Z you need Y mask and then you'll get to the place you should have gone and realise that you need 5 fucking magic beans or even worse you need a powder keg and it's already dawn of the 3rd day so you have to song of time and then you realise you had 500 rupees that you now lost and holy fuck is that shit annoying
But after a while you get it down and you truely understand and appreciate the layout and how it works
Twilight Princess also kicked some pretty cool ass especially Midna, she was a rather interesting take on fairies.
I'm waiting on completeing Majora's mask before doing Skyward Sword
|
I thought MM was okay, considering it was the only one I actually beat (including getting the super OP bosses only mask) lol I stopped at Shadow Temple for OoT cause I got stuck. Damn, if I wasn't stuck at school I'd be down to do this too (MIGHT do SS if I find time since my apartment mate bought it.) Good luck to you. Remember, you have an entire year. Soak in all the goodness that is the Zelda series.

I would bet on you not managing to beat "Zelda 2: The adventure of Link" before you get too frustrated to continue without using guides (unless you use savestates of course, but I guess that you wouldn't do that). It is by far the hardest zelda game, aside from zelda 1's second quest no other game can even compare.
|
I've never played any of the Zelda games besides Majora's Mask and OOT (which I loved both). So I think I am qualified to say that those are the best games in the series.
Joking aside, idk why there are many MM haters in here. That was my favorite of the two. And then since I got it on VC, I've since learned to bombchu hover which increases the replayability a ton. There's also the special boss mask glitch to use it in Termina fields and elsewhere. If only OOT had easier bombchu access and hovering ability (the explosions are delayed which makes it hard), I would definitely spend a lot of time on that.

Seriously, that game is like Ninja Gaiden hard. I still remember that a relatively early point in the game you have the option of leaving the main area of the game through this super long tunnel that's basically impossible unless you first acquire the healing spell Life. I thought you had to go through that freaking impossible tunnel to GET that stupid spell holy crap. My face when all that tunnel did was reveal a whole new, much bigger area, and NOT the life spell ...

Zelda 2 is not that hard if you learn to jump and then attack, though there are a few silly false walls and floors you have to find at points, as well as New Kasuto, but that's not as dumb as "bomb every wall" in Zelda 1.

Majora is my favorite. Such a sad story. .

Twilight P. Had some sweet game play, but I feel it lacked story-wise and like you said to EZ. Or may be its because I beat Oot and Majora when I was like 8. Windwaker is trash. Driving out in the ocean pisses me off b/c I always get lost and then get vertigo. I don't even have vertigo -___-. Haven't beaten the game cuz I got lost somewhere an it take 50 years to get back. They should have added a feature where you can barrel roll the boat.

Fight the knights properly instead by blocking their attacks and attacking back, it is a bit harder to learn but far from impossible, I finished the game as a kid without knowing that you could do the glitch to bypass the shield of the knights.
