Perhaps something was lost in translation and I would have actually liked it if I'd played it on GC. LoZ was the only Nintendo franchise that really interested me and now not even that interests me. |
It was on the N64, not Gamecube. I'm not exactly sure how you find it more ordinary than other games. I played on 3ds. It's not my favorite game ever, but it's definitely up there.

OK, point is it was originally on a console I never owned.
Perhaps it was because all the major hype around it being the best game of all time and topping many "100 best games of all time" lists. So when my son got 3DS I was really really excited to finally play this greatest ever game to grace any video game platform ever.
I gave the game a decent enough number of hours to impress me but there was nothing, nothing at all about it that I found engaging or entertaining. It wasn't bad, it was simply ordinary. My son loved it, so it was a worthwhile purchase, just no for me.
Pokemon is the only Nintendo game that actually drew me in, odd because I can't for the life of me figure out why kept wanting to play it. Unfortunately for Nintendo they made the game (Diamond I think) impossible to have 2 game saves on one cartridge. So basically because my son had his own game going, all I could do is basically play the game for a short time but not actually have a game save of my own. Which means once I put it down I had no desire to pick it up again. Nintendo's own form of DRM, but this time it's GRM within the family, as opposed to preventing used game sales, weird. I've had my Pokemon experience, became weirdly addicted for a brief period, and now I'm over it.
