GP writer Jordan discusses five more Zelda theories as backed by Hyrule Historia.
Relive the golden age of gaming with these timeless video games. From Wind Waker to Monkey Island, get ready for a nostalgia-filled ride.
I'd put Street Fighter 2 over 3. 2 and all its different versions dominated the arcade scene back in the day in a way that 3 never did.
Agreed, Same with Metal Gear Solid imo. Came for Bioshock and was not disappointed. Would easily put Burger Time or Space Taxi over tempest. Also, OG Sim City and Oregon Trail. Mario 64 as well. Just too many!
Me too. I didn't have a GC until way later and never played it. I've been waiting on Nintendo to release the HD edition on the Switch for forever, but they just won't!
I never bought a Gamecube, I've always had an urge to play this game, maybe it'll get a remaster in the future.
I played it on WiiU for the first time and it remains my fave Zelda game to date. So much character and a real sense of exploration without the open world bloat.
Ms Pacman?
Robotron?
SSF2 Turbo over 3 simply by the 10000000000's ports of the game we're still having
Castlevania SOTN?
Zelda Link to the Past over Wind Waker
Super Mario Bros 3?
Chrono Trigger?
Resident evil4?
COD MW2 (the original)?
Uncharted 2
Metal Gear Solid?
Here's my reasoning for all of them versus the list proposed in the article.
They are still quite enjoyable from start to finish on their original platform, unlike some Wind Waker or Okami that are fun when you play the remastered version (unless you call: forced to watch a 20-minute cutscene or have to blow for wind chance constantly fun).
Some of them are the pinnacle of what the console could do (MGS, Chrono, MGS)
Lots of them are still considered the go-to-go game for their genre.
'The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask' is a testament to Nintendo's game development skills.
This game is so trippy when one considers Link is dead, and tripping in limbo or something.

Dave writes, "It only took me two decades but The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is one of the outlier and engaging Zelda experiences."
ill never forget my first experiences with MM, and its why its my favorite zelda title
Majora's Mask, a major oddity in the series as the game is shaped around the story rather than the story being shaped around the game as Nintendo usually does. It wants you to be invested in saving the world and all the unique individuals in it. The game was made so fast too, this is really its saving grace. Certain aspects of the original game technically are a bit rough (poor Z targeting getting made into jank), and the boss fights just generally aren't good in either the original or the remake. The dungeons themselves are generally actually pretty interesting, but the true draw is everything that happens outside of them ultimately.
Such a gnarly game! The gameplay is so varied because Link can transform into totally different characters. Swimming around as a Zora was so chiilll
link and zelda are legendery. ocarina of time will always be in my top 5.
It's about time this came up. Part 1 was so long ago, I forgot about it.
So many theories have been proven true, I bet Nintendo just heard about them and made them true.
"Well Said" and "Intelligent" to the 2 above me.
These are always good reads.
If Nintendo goes back to the time before SS-
some of the people who want to see a "futuristic" Zelda may get it.
Seeing as how the robots in Zelda are actually ancient artifacts.
The former Zelda world seems a lot like "Shadow Run" even down to the Dragons ruling over regions.
Very interesting, now im going to go back and read the whole book.
