Until very recently my favorite Zelda game has been Wind Waker. An $11 purchase on Monday changed my mind - The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening for the GameBoy is now, hands down, my favorite Zelda game. It nails everything perfectly: The combat, the items, the shield use, the enemies, the dungeons, everything. It's an absolute joy to play.

So, chime in. What's your favorite Zelda game? I'll tally the results every 15 or so posts.

Note: Please specify your favorite. "Likes" will be excluded from the tallies.

Edit: This thread has probably been done before, but I figured tallies are fun and all that. :)

My favorite is A Link to the Past. That's my vote.

I have never played Link's Awakening. I was too young back then to make good descisions about games. :-(

Wind Waker hands down. It is the only console version of Zelda that I like.

I feel out of place, neither Ocarina of Time nor A Link to the Past are my favorites

Wind Waker just appealed to me in a way no other Zelda game could. I just loved everything about it. The artistic style, the locations, the dungeons, the boss battles. Heck, I even enjoyed the sailing! My only regret about the game is that my memory cards were stolen before I could play through the second quest.

Yeah, I know. I praise this game to annoying levels. :P Still, this is the only game I'd ever consider getting a NPC remake for, and that's saying something.

My Zelda Top 3:

  • 1. The Wind Waker (Gamecube)
  • 2. Ocarina of Time (N64) & Majora's Mask (N64) ...They just need to be together as it's a continuing story. I like Majora's Mask much more, but it wouldn't be the same if there was no Ocarina before it, and Ocarina is also great on its own.
  • 3. Freshly Picked: Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland (DS)

The greatest Zelda of all time has got to be Ocarina of Time, hands down. It's the most satisfying video game experience I've ever had.

I don't consider Tingle to be a true Zelda game. It's more of a spin-off if you ask me.

My favourite is probably Ocarina of Time. My second favourite is either Majora's Mask or A Link to the Past.

Majora's Mask and Link's Awakening are pretty much tied at the top for me.

@SUPERZELDAMAN

You crack me up. Did you use the GBA to communicate with Tingle throughout the game?

Twitter is a good place to throw your nonsense.

I'm actually surprised how many people chose A Link to the Past. I thought most would choose Ocarina of Time.

@warioswoods: The Tingle Tuner was fun! It made Wind Waker pretty much a 2-player game and I liked helping my brother attack enemies with bombs, or blow stuff up for him when he was out of bombs. :-) It also saved him during a few fights.
