The Legend of Zelda

The Legend of Zelda
I was going to make this a topic about Ocarina of Time, but I figured I'd open the floor to talk about the franchise in general. Is anyone here a fan of the games? Why and why not?

I first heard about Zelda through my brother who had a NES and the first and second Zelda game. He wouldn't let me play either because the cartridges were both gold and he thought I'd ruin them. I spent many years fantasizing about what I couldn't have until along came the N64 (my first game console) and Ocarina of Time. That was my introduction to the franchise and man did I love it.

And thanks to re-releases, collector's editions and going over to my cousins who has every Nintendo system known to man, I have played Zelda 1, 2, A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, OoT, Majora's Mask, Oracles of Ages & Seasons, Wind Waker, Four Swords and Twilight Princess. Only ones among them I don't own is Link's Awakening. The rest I haven't played. How about you guys?

My boys played several of those, but now that their balls dropped, they are into other pursuits.

Ocarina of Time is still one of my all-time favorite games.

You should also play Minish Cap. It's another excellent Zelda game.

Not me. Visual impairment has ended my playing. My faves were always shooters and racing anyways.

I hear good things. What did you think of that official Zelda timeline Nintendo came out with a while back? It seems to have made fans more unhappy than answer questions IMO. Probably would've been best to leave well enough alone.

I like the game series, the puzzles were really cool. BTW, do you recognize this scene?

Yeah, I smash pots all the time. Never any rubies in them, though. Sad
