The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of time still blows me away

And here I am at the opposite end of the Nostalgia Spectrum. I never played Ocarina of Time when it first came out, not having an N64 to play it on. I couldn't get into it when I tried it at a friend's house around 1999. It wasn't until Twilight Princess Wii that I found a 3D Zelda which actually controlled the way I needed it to control for me to enjoy it.

So here I am, the contrarian voice: I don't like Ocarina of Time. It drives me insane with its funky controls and extremely dated style. I can't even play it for more than an hour at a time before I quit out of sheer frustration. But Twilight Princess I've played and won 5 times over, with complete files each time.

Perspective: it makes all the difference in the world.

Oh, Sky Render.

It is all right. Some of us enjoy all the Zelda games for what they are. Your dislike is unusual, but not unheard of! You can still be accepted at Zelda fan dinner parties.
