    I love Zelda! Played the following songs on my Alto Saxophone: Bolero of Fire, Zelda's Lullaby, Requiem of Spirit, Nocturne of Shadow, Lost Woods, and Song of Time. But the only game I've played is Ocarina of Time(from the gamecube/wii) and Lick's Awakening(on computer).

    I'm no major LOZ fan, but I do enjoy Wind Waker and Zelda II.

    My favorites are Wind Waker, Ocarina of Time, Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, and Skyward Sword. I've managed to play the opening theme song on my clarinet as well. :D

    My favorite game is OoT too.
    I've played that one, Minish Cap (It was my first one!), Link to the Past, a bit of Link's Awakening, a bit of Oracle of Ages and... And I was pretty sure I had played at least one more, but it must have slipped my mind now!

    I own practically every game, have managed to pick out the theme on any digital piano in reach, and have used the in-game ocarina to pick out an almost perfect recreation of the Red/Blue opening

    Speak to me! I am die hard zelda fan! I have skyward sword and phantom hourglass personally, but I've played spirit tracks and minish cap also. Minish cap is my favorite by far, its just a beastly game. Oddly, I haven't played a ganondorf game yet

    Ocarina of time is my most favorite Zelda game in existence! I've had so many hours placed on that poor video game, I'm surprised it still even works. Haha! I guess the next favorite of mine is Twilight Princess and the original for the NES. <3

    The boss I had the most fun with has got to be Morpha from OoT. For some reason that big ooey gooey critter is fun to just mess around with when you feel like wasting time. I also approve of Bongo Bongo. His beat is so catchy *v* Plus not to mention his chant that he does when he is taunting you or something.

    oh god FUCK bongo bongo he was the one boss i always got stuck on hahaha.now that i've gotten spirit tracks recently! i've now played EVERY ZELDA GAME. also OoT is actually one of my least favorites, probably because i played the shit out of it as a kid i can't stand to touch it anymore. like seriously i've beat it at least 2 dozen times. oracle of seasons was my first zelda game, i got it with Pokémon red as a kid and my love for both has been the deepest as far as games go. i've even got a tattoo of the hylian crest as proof of my undying love!

    My first Zelda game was A Link to the Past/Four Swords. Being very young at the time, my friends and I impersonated our hero "Link" from Four Swords and blindly ran around the woods with machetes. I'm still wondering how we never killed ourselves by tripping and getting sliced open... Zelda and Pokémon are tied at my top 3 game series. I was so excited when I found out about the free Four Swords for DSi last year I nearly exploded.

    I'm a fan of the series but haven't kept up with it. Despite being a big SNES guy, the first Zelda game I played all the way through was Ocarina of Time, and what a magical piece of my late-childhood was that. My favorite of all time however is Majora's Mask. I love everything about it, incredible replay value with the mask collecting and the concept is fantastic and ripe for expanding upon with theories. Some parts were pretty dark and mindtrip-like but still retained the typical kind of light heartedness in places you'd expect from a Zelda game. I consider it a masterpiece. The most recent Zelda game I've played was Wind Waker back when I still had a Gamecube. I enjoyed it but not nearly as much as the two N64 classics.

    I've played through Ocarina of Time, WindWaker, and Four Swords, and my favorite definitely has to be Wind Waker. It's cel-shaded art style made it a truly unique game, and it had pretty good controls and easy to grasp concepts.

    The best part was how surprisingly easy it was, honestly. That usually doesn't sound like a good thing, but it's definitely something I found quite enjoyable; because it was the first Legend of Zelda game I was actually able to finish. That combined with the cel-shaded art style, and overall feel of gameplay made it a very welcoming game into the Zelda Franchise, from there on I started to play the other ones.

    It's not my favorite game-series, but it's still a timeless classic that keeps on reinventing itself in new ways that keep players on edge.

    I found that too, all through the game, except for part of the last battle, where
    you must shoot the tail of snake-Gannon with a Light Arrow while it moves around incredibly fast
    . Maybe I was doing something wrong back then, but damn that part was so frustrating.

    Pretty decent fan right here! My favourite is Majora's Mask. I'm actually planning on doing a skull kid Cosplay right now. Just trying to figure out how I'm going to make the mask. Thinking sculpting it and then doing a silicon and resin mold. Trying to convince my brother to be the happy mask salesman too. Heeheehee

    I've played almost all of the games though. My older brother and I played the original on the NES. I remember getting all the way to the final temple, then my mom told us we had to go run to her friend's house really fast and when we got back the game had frozen and we lost a majority of our progress. I was super young back then but I remember how angry both of us were.

    Despite the popularity of OoT, I think it was fairly overrated. It was quite boring to me and I still think Majora's Mask had more depth story-wise. Iunno, unpopular opinion. Wind Waker was also really great!

    I used to be a big Zelda fan. I like to think I still I am one, but Skyward Sword ruined any hype I may have for future games. I couldn't get into the motion controls. After trying to defeat the boss of the first dungeon and failing to get Link to swing his sword in the right direction, I gave up. (This wasn't an isolated incident; I had been having problems with the controls up to that point.)

    Anyway, enough negativity. The NES Zelda was the first one I played and owned. I loved it but could barely make it past the first labyrinth. The Oracle games were the first Zelda games I beat.

    Yeah, I think the motion controls worked a bit TOO well (it took me 20 minutes just to save the cat at the beginning, because Link wouldn't stay at the right angle to jump on the roof) but I applaud Team Nintendo's effort to try something different

    Just putting this out there.
    I love the fact that you have to shoot cows to open doors in Jabu Jabu's belly in the Master Quest version. Cracks me up every time xD

    Zelda is the greatest! Other than Pokémon, of course... I played all of them, even Spirit Tracks, which was the most un-Zelda like of them all.
