Topic: NWR Forums Top 10 Zelda Games

[NWR_insanolord]

A lot of people criticized our staff list for the Top 10 Zelda Games feature we just did, so as was suggested, we're opening it up to our readers to do their own list.


To vote, post your list in this thread. Votes will be tallied by giving your number one selections 10 points, number twos 9 points, all the way down to your number ten selection receiving 1 points. These numbers will be added up and used to compile the final list.


If you don't have ten games you want to vote for, don't feel the need to fill the entire list, but we ask that you at least give your top five. Please get your list in by the end of next week, Saturday, October 5.

[Adrock]

1. A Link to The Past
2. Link's Awakening
3. Ocarina of Time
4. The Wind Waker
5. Majora's Mask
6. Twilight Princess
7. Four Sword Adventures
8. Oracle of Ages
9. Oracle of Seasons
10. Four Sword Anniversary
11. The Minish Cap

I know I listed 11. I count Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons as one game because you can't even fight the final boss without both of them. If they could be counted together, they'd be number eight. Since they're probably counted separately, I placed Oracle of Ages first because Veran is a better villain. It's been a while since I played them though.

I almost put The Wind Waker ahead of Ocarina of Time. I think collectively The Wind Waker is probably the more refined game, but I really can't ignore the fact that I've played through and completed Ocarina of Time like eight times. Anyway, to celebrate this Zelda thread and how awesome A Link to the Past is, here's a gif:
