It has a great artstyle and atmosphere, but it's the weakest of the 3D console Zeldas, imo. The game just felt incomplete. The dungeons were weak and far too few, they essentially handed you the third pearl, the sailing would get tedious after long periods, and the Quest for the Triforce Shards was nothing more than a waste of time fetch quest intended to pad the game's length to make up for the lacking dungeons.
They also made the prospect of getting all hear pieces a total pain in the ass.
The islands for the most part rocked, though.
Edit: Oh yeah. The counters made combat easy as hell.
