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.

 

Wow! The same exact thing happened to me. And I also loved, Doom, Duke Nukem and Quake.

OoT? I didn´t like it. Besides, I loved how Twilight Princess didn't asume I have played all the Zelda Games. TP Princess was my first Zelda and now I consider myself a new fan. I cant wait for the next Wii Zelda. In the meantime, I am gonna hit the post buttom and go play it right now.
