Do Zelda games have bad or cliched stories?

The only Zelda I've bought, played and ended up loving was The Wind Waker, even though that endless ocean pissed me off when I wanted to travel somewhere.

Gameplay wise, it was fun (except for the aforementioned). Presentation wise, it was a high quality cartoon in real time. Story wise... what? There was one?

Yes. Yes there was. And one of the better Zelda storylines too.

Oh hai! I r Ganond0rf and I gonna kidnap all pretti little gurlz kkk? U little boi in green haz no chance against me. All ur friend Zelda r belong to me. Yaaaa!

^ You mean this story? Please. I loved the game, but Zeldas have stories on par with Mario games. Peach is kidnapped for the umpteenth time. Mario to the rescueeeeeeeeee!!

You have to be trying to be that needlessly reductive. I find it impossible to believe that you actually think it's ever that simple. I mean, the plot, yes, but almsot all plots can be summarized that simply.
