Learn to use your shield properly. Even if it means practising on guys with arrows or whatever, it'll be worth it. Save your money, there is an expensive item that will reduce the damage you take by half. Most of all, try to be sure you're in the right dungeon. You can aimlessly wander into one that is way to hard and that you don't even have the items to complete. If one dungeon seems to ramp up the learning curve too much, just go searching for another one.

Got my disc.  Time to play some old school Zelda.

I do have to say that AoL is the hardest Zelda game, but it isn't that tough. You just have to spend alittle time leveling up. Which I find is the hardest part about the game, because the leveling up doesn't help out as much as you think it would.

After receiving my Zelda bonus disk on Friday, and playing through OOT again, then playing through and beating MM for the first time, I will give my 2 cents.

Ocarina of Time was one of the greatest ever made in 1998. Still is today. Ocarina of Time is arguably best Zelda ever, and best ever. I can find almost no faults, and will forever be cherished as a classic. However, LTTP is also my number 1 Zelda ever, and favorite of all time (along with Metroid Prime). I love OOT (the ) even more, especially after it being re-released. All 9 dungeons were SO enjoyable. Inside the Deku Tree, Dodongo's Cavern, Jabu-Jabu's Belly, Forest Temple, Fire Temple, Water Temple, Shadow Temple, Spirit Temple, and Ganon's Tower. From beginning to end a classic. Near perfection.

Majora's Mask had a live up to, from the (IMHO) near-perfect OOT and LTTP. It didn't quite live up to either, but is still a near-classic and is a solid entry into the Zelda series. The lack of dungeons, the foolish focusing on side-quests made it (like tWW) seem rushed. Other than several major and minor flaws, Majora's Mask is worth playing and is one of the best N64 . The three-day system was sheer genius. The four dungeons were all long and engaging- Woodfall Temple, Snowhead Temple, Great Bay Temple, and Stone Tower Temple. The came out and some loved it even more than OOT.

I dunno, I actually enjoyed the sidequests MORE than the main quest in Majora's Mask. I liked going on these missions to help out other people, just to see how their stories would turn out.

Meh. Sidequests are no substitution for a solid, long main quest (like LTTP and OOT).

animex, they claim it should take two weeks.  That doesn't mean two weeks on the dot.  If I told you to come to my house at three 'o clock (assuming you knew where I lived, any you could get there easily), I wouldn't get pissed off at you because you weren't here at three on the dot.

Oh, and it's been more than two weeks for me (I ordered on the 25th of December) and still no disk.  I'm not bitching about it, though.

I got my disc 3 weeks after I subscribed to NP... not a bad deal, $20 for the disc with a free mag thrown in.

I haven't played it yet... I'll probably never play it. I got it mostly because it looks good in my collection... heh.

I got mine yesterday.  Not too bad...seems that they gave OoT a slight graphical update and the framerate is much more consistent this time around, though I wish they had done the same for Majora's Mask.  Porting it over rather than emulating it would have been a better idea.

Still, LoZ is a blast, so I'm not arguing.

Umm, yeah.  I think i may have lost a step or two since my original NES days.  I cant even find a dungeon in LOZ.  Well, i found the first, but i keep dying on my way to the second.  Maybe i was more driven back in the day.
