Where else can you play the game? Game Boy Advance. It even comes with the Four Swords, which is multiplayer! ;D I've played LttP a little, usually after getting through a couple of other Zelda games (I pretty much have all of them ), so I often burn out, sadly.

Heh, I know that burn out thing, because its far harder than Ocarina, Majoras or Wind Waker, I find.

Absolutely. I find the 3d ones always seem to be quite a bit easier than the top-down ones.

I haven't given Zelda I or II enough of a shot, i'll definitely be going back to do both of those.
Have you played either/both of them much?

Yeah, I've tried them a bit. 1 is quite tough, seeing as how you're not given much direction by anyone. I'm struggling through the first dungeon, although to be honest the other games are proving rather distracting at the moment.
2 is very different from all the others, being more of an RPG. It's quite tricky too, but I think that's more down to me not being quite used to it yet.

I'll definitely be devoting time to them Yeah, I agree, from my memory, they are hard games to get in to. But I had that problem with LttP till this year (that recently)

I'm playing too many of them as it is. I'm scouring OOT for the last few bits and pieces (heart pieces, gold skulltulas and other such secrets), going through Wind Waker plus I've started Oracle of Ages again. Luckily, I have no life, so it ain't too bad.

I'd have no problem with the fact you spend that many hours gaming, heck I'm either here, gaming or both. But such a mixture of games...
Well, I guess it could work out great, and have insight from loads of Zelda games, adding to them as a group, or it could be disastous, and them brief non-gaming times you might get mixed up with what you just did in one of them with another (far more likely for me, i'd reckon)
Also, have you played The Master Quest of OoT? Not to seem like i'm trying to suggest adding more to the pile, its just that that game is far harder than OoT.

I've played it a bit, yes. I'll add it further down my list, since OOT is still very fresh in my mind. I'm pretty sure I've got all the Zelda games to date (except the CD-i ones, but they don't count), albeit not all on their original platforms. Most are on the GC, actually! I don't tend to get mixed up too often. I only have that problem when playing both Oracle games at once, so I probably won't be doing that. How many of them have you got/played?

I've played 1 and 2 a bit, but not in ages.
Cleared 3.
Cleared Ocarina.
Cleared Majoras Mask.
Got far in Wind Waker (As far as the last/second last triforce piece)
Played a while of The Minish Cap, can't remember how far I got, though I played it quite a bit for a while.
Oh, I played The Master Quest and got as far as the Dodongo Cavern (i'm ashamed of only getting to there, but i'll not lie about it.)
Anyway, I don't have a gamecube anymore, so I haven't had the chance to play Wind Waker/Master Quest anymore.

Don't feel so bad about MQ, that's as far as I got last time too. Shame about the GC.

I'll be able to get a lend of one (i'll lend my 360, yeah I know some will say thats stupid/crazy, but its not really when you have played Oblivion enough, and the games that work backwards compatibly)
I'll get Wind Waker (unfortunately, without the MQ in that) so i'll spend a lot of time on that, in the next few weeks whenever I get the trade done.

I'll take a GC + Zelda over a 360 + Oblivion any day.

Same here Also, i'll be buying the Wii + Twillight Princess first day (or at least, first day TP is out)

Ditto. I've been waiting a long time for a realistic Zelda for GC. Wind Waker was good, but Twilight Princess is looking so much better.

I'm looking at Twillight Princess as the direction Zelda should be going. It looks like the logical following of Ocarina, as Ocarina was of Link to the Past.

Ocarina was pretty much perfect as far as I was concerned. A bit easy at times, but that's my only real issue with it. If the other dungeons were as frustrating as the water temple, it would have been flawless.

The Water Temple, and The Shadow Temple were the hardest. It took me a bit to get my head around Jabu Jabus belly (I couldn't figure it out the first time, but once I realised what I was doing and why, I had no problems in my return visits in replaying the game)

Jabu Jabu got me the first time I ever played as well.
I wasn't too held up by the Shadow Temple at all, really. I tend to rush through it, since it kinda gives me the creeps. My favourite has to be the Spirit Temple, though. The music's awesome, the Iron Knuckles are fun to fight, and Twinrova are pretty enjoyable as far as bosses go as well. The fact you get two items from it makes it all the better. ;D

I loved the Spirit Temple, too. And as for my favourite Ocarina warp song? That goes to Bolero of Fire.

I think the Wii features well destory it. IS TP coming out for GC? Yup. I'm not sure if we're getting one version for each console, or if it's a single release that has extra features when played on a Wii. Either way, it can't come soon enough for me! ;D from what I've heard its a "cross over" one cd for both consoles
