ZI writes: In wake of Skyward Sword's romantic scenes, "That Romantic Spark" is a series looking at Link's love interests throughout The Legend of Zelda franchise. In Part I we looked at the classics, and yesterday in Part II we took a look at the Nintendo 64 Titles. In today's installment we delve into a bunch of 2D titles - mostly Capcom's handhelds - but also on the Nintendo GameCube.
From the acclaimed Oracle Duo - Oracles of Ages and Oracle of Seasons - to the Four Swords Trilogy - The Minish Cap, Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures. While romance isn't as prominent as in the Nintendo 64 titles, today's five titles sure do have their hints and subtleties. Let's see how Link's love life fares in Part III.
ScreenRant's Matthew Wilcox writes, "Remakes of two Legend of Zelda games would have plenty of opportunities for improvements, but may also remove a key feature in the process."
NE: "We look at the most overlooked Zelda game, why it's a good entry, and why a remake would make sense for Nintendo."
Remakes would then warrant full price games at £50. Would much prefer a Zelda collection, but that's never going to happen. I never played these games. Prefer 2D Zelda games, last one I played was Minish Cap.
I completed both recently, and they're okay. They've got nothing on A Link to the Past, but they did feature a few challenging dungeon puzzles, overall they are worth a playthrough, but also not that memorable.

Glad you enjoyed! Loved this game, and always felt it wasn't appreciated/talked about enough. Capcom did an admirable job handling the Zelda franchise w due respect. Loved the shrinking mechanic. :)
Minish Cap and Oracle of Ages do something that the 3D games haven't quite achieved in my opinion. With the exception being Majora's Mask, as I would say it more captures the spirit of 2D Zeldas.
