As a big Zelda hater as a kid, I skipped the series completely. I’ve been going through to experience them all in order now. I really enjoyed the first two games of the series so I expected to like this one too. What I didn’t expect is was that it really is one of the best games on the Super Nintendo if not one of the best games of all-time.
ALTTP is still my favorite of all time. I didn't try OOT until I was in my 20s because a roommate wanted to play it and it was on the wii shop. Hated the controls and everything. I'm watching someone do a blind playthrough now and I like the ideas, but hated actually playing it.
OP, you should also check out ALTTPR -- there are many randomizers to get tons of playtime out of the game.
Another game I personally loved was SoulBlazer (SoulBlader in Japan and maybe other areas).
What's the R stand for in alttp?
Not that I have time to get into the triple zero club again.
The final R is for Randomizer :)
