My favorite is The Legend of Zelda (NES).  The fact that it isn't even on the poll is insulting.  The first one is actually a favorite of a lot of people, but it is definitely a generational thing.

Here is my list of the one's I've played:

1) The Legend of Zelda

2) Breath of the Wild

3) Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

Yeah, I really wish the polls would allow for more than ten choices, I just left off the original figuring that a lot of the users here were too young to have played the original in its heyday and would prefer the direction the series took later. My intent was to list every game. Hey, even the CD-i games must have at least one fan out there. The original came out when I was 10, so I've been with the series from the beginning and it's been my favorite since then. Always neat to find someone who appreciates the original and Zelda II, which was a marvel of a game when it made its debut and whose release progress I followed in Nintendo Power. Part of why I love Breath of the Wild is how it combines the best aspects of the 8-bit Zeldas with the QOL improvements the series has made over the years.

Maybe make a poll specifically for those of us old enough to remember the NES era.

For me, Adventure of Link appealed more to me than the original Zelda, largely because of the number of towns and RPG elements (despite how frustrating they could be). I liked the idea of the original Legend of Zelda, it was an awe-inspiring game at the time, but it always kicked my ass; particularly in the dungeons with rooms where there were like 5 or 6 of those knights.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
