#9 but as the remastered version on the WiiU.

#2 for me

5, and it was one of my older sibling's friends that just let us have a bunch of their games that they were done with. It quickly became my favourite game on the N64, along with Smash Bros later on.

I played 1 and 2 a bit but I was way too young. The first Zelda game I really enjoyed was Link to the Past

#7 for me. Kind of surprised that answer isn't more common here. Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages occupied so much of me and my friends time back when they came out.

#1 I’m almost 40

Link to the Past, which is also my favorite besides the Oracle games.

I'm an old head. OG gold cart. I remember being so disappointed with Zelda 2. Now I kinda wanna go back to it. It had a really cool score.

Wind Waker will always have a special place in my heart. It was the first game to open a whole world of exploration for me.

#1 was my first, #5 and #6 were my 2nd and 3rd. I wish they'd port 4 swords to the switch and give it online co-op, I'd love to play through it with other people

I played some of the original game as a kid and then much later played some of Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker, but the first game I actually finished was Breath of the Wild. To be fair though, I never had any of the Nintendo consoles between the SNES and the Wii U.

Mine was ocarina of time on 3DS, which gave me motion sickness and that's how I learned 3D (as in movie 3D not CGI) and gaming simply don't mix.

#1, which I rented from my local video rental store back when video rental was all small, locally owned businesses - until I was eventually gifted a cart of my own for my birthday. I tried to find it not that long ago when I stopped to visit my parents. I found my original 8-bit NES and all of my games except Zelda. I suspect my niece, who had been living in my old room for a number of years, may have found it on the top shelf of the closet and realizing its value either sold it or gave it to her boyfriend.

number 1. I'm an 80s baby ^^

Number 3 is my all time favourite though.

If we're counting 3DS remakes, I'm a number 6. Otherwise, I guess I'd be a number 9 through the WiiU iirc.

I'm old 😒

#4 for me, pretty sure i only played a few hours on a friend's dmg back in the day

5! My uncle got me OoT for Christmas when I was a kid. He didn't know I wanted it, he just really liked it and thought he'd get me a cool video game, but I remember seeing the commercial for it on TV and wanting to play it really badly.

I played SO much of that game. I sucked at games as a kid (but I adored them) so I got it when I was probably ~7 and didn't beat it until I was probably ~15. lol And it was only thanks to help from friends. I have since beaten it multiple times, and I've beaten Majora's Mask, Link's Awakening (Switch remake), Four Swords, I 100%ed BotW + DLC, and I am well on my way to beating TotK. So I have improved at video games, thankfully. lol

No phantom hourglass then?

First ever was #1, first one I beat was #11 though

I played Legend of Zelda on the 8-bit Nintendo (#1) with some roommates in college. I tried playing Ocarina of Time on the 3DS (don't see a number for it), but I didn't like the platform enough to continue using it and I wasn't used to the type of game Zelda is. I haven't tried any since, but not because of a lack of respect for the franchise. I just missed the party and don't know where to jump in. Plus, there are so many games out there to choose from.

#5 for me. Although I did have a NES (technically my mom's) but didn't have the carts for LoZ or AoL. And I never had a SNES, unfortunately, so missed out on ALttP until it's re-release on the GBA

#4 here. Still remember it was the only video game I ever say my dad play. Even that, he only played for one day lol
