The graphics in Windwaker were hard to get used to, but that game was actually epic.
Any other Zelda fans?

Only the regular NES system knew what was up with Zelda games, other than that I felt the rest were garbage.

As epic as Ocarina was, and endlessly replayable.... Zelda II for the NES was my favorite... the cave maze to the hammer, acquiring up/down stab, strategically spending exp. for attribute upgrades.... fucking epic. Shadow Link.... the music in the background of the last dungeon! (mental note, find this for a ring tone)

Well, considering the technology developed in the making of ocarina of time for the N64 pretty much revolutionized the whole industry, and the fact that it is still the highest rated game of all time and continues to be a best seller for 3ds and digital copies on the WiiU, i must disagree. The NES games were amazing though.
Windwaker was also pretty revolutionary, and for anyone who pays attention to the storyline of the franchise it really flipped the script on us all. Alot of people were turned off by the new art style, but in fact it had one of the darkest stories in the franchise. How many rated E games feature a world that has just been flooded resulting in the death of the majority of the population?
Majoras Mask was especially impressive. The entire game was developed in under a year. If that doesn't show how brilliant the Staff in that division of Nintendo are.... Well idk what does.
Twilight Princess had a shitty story IMO. Playing as wolf link was nothing short of annoying. Its the only one i played and wasnt too fond of.

I can understand your feelings about how it revolutionized things but honestly it just wasn't anywhere near as bad ass. It looked like a panzy ass kids game by the time it evolved.
Oh lets mention how EASY the newer ones are...

Twilight was definitely easy. I never played the 3ds games or skyward sword.
The N64 games definitely werent too easy. Perhaps the combat parts of the game, and early dungeons.... Water temple in Oot might be the most stressful thing on the planet. Ive beaten it hundreds of times and still forget where one of the keys are. Majoras Mask was a challenge as well. Keep in mind these games are meant to be playable by kids. They can't be impossible for them.

I understand that, this is why I drifted from my fondness of the brand. Nintendo had so many games that were way more difficult than what we are getting now adays. yeah there was bullshit like battletoads where it was almost "luck" if you could get through it but I just feel like too many games these days are on easy mode because the majority need it easy...
I even put down the witcher 3 after playing it on the hardest difficulty and leveling up 0 abilities but I still found it so damn easy...

Try the 3 heart challenge in any zelda game. Just skip all the heart containers...... THATS HARD.
There are lots of ways to handicap yourself to make the challenge better. My first playthrough is usually just me getting to the end of the game. After that its a 3 heart challenge.
Never played the witcher

Ah I've played most of them I'd have to say out of the older ones A Link To The Past is my favorite. Obviously Ocarina is the best and I own two copies of it and major as mask on n64. I've beat the first and second legend of zeldas on Nintendo I've also beat, seasons and ages, four swords, a link to the past and ocarina. To be honest I never played ww, or any of the new ones. I REALLY Need To Get A Wii AND Play The New ones. I also have never beat Majoras! I started a new file a month ago got outside of the first town and quit playing so I'll have to start up again..

I just got WindWaker HD for Wii U... Named my character "Mr.Wiiner", and during the sword tutorial he said "Thats right Mr.Wiiner, keep thrusting"! I just started playing it last night and dabs just made it great.
Most of the older titles are ONLY on 3DS! Ocarina of time is supposed to release to Wii U in 2016 along with the new title. Were you guys around for Twilight Princess? How many times did they push the release date? Then the game was kind of shitty, I lost a great deal of interest of it! I hope they dont do it to the new one...

Ocarina of Time is my favorite game ever. I did think that Majoras mask had better gameplay tho. And I loved all the masks. Really fun. Windwaker is awesome also. I actually haven't finished it yet. I have the emulator tho. I'm at one of the temple after you get the 3 stones or jewels or whatever they were in that one. I might actually start playing it after I type this post. Ocarina of Time is my favorite tho. Does anyone else here skip thru to get the un breakable big Goron sword before doing the forest temple? Fuck a shield, other than the spirit temple boss.
