Nah, I haven't.

I have the originals right here, and a GBC too, so I can play any of the three GameBoy games whenever I choose too. They're all nicely in their boxes next to each other on the shelf. Even have both the regular Link's Awakening as well as the DX version.

The Oracle games were decent. Way better than the other Capcom attempts (Minish Cap and Four Swords (which sucks)) anyway, however they aren't my favorites. Link's Awakening however, is genius and my second favorite Zelda and thus one of the best games of all time. I'll probably grant that game a Virtual Console purchase someday even though I already own it twice. I have bought it three times actually, but my dog ate my first (DX) cartridge not long after I got it. True story.

I admit four swords was not the best, but the minish cap was amazing in my eyes. Really really enjoyed that one. 

The 'sucks' part was fully aimed at Four Swords at least, I don't think Minish Cap sucks. I just think it's 'below average'. For a Zelda game anyway, I tend to be hard on those because the standard is so high. If Minish Cap were in any other series, stand-alone or whatever, I probably would've thought it to be a good game.

Personally, I think it's way too short, way too easy and has too many uninteresting things and it doesn't really fit in the whole Zelda story. To top it off, I don't think it looks very good and most music is... annoying. None of those things are in the extremes however, and like I said, the game would've gotten away with it if it weren't a Zelda game. The only Zelda games I found worse (played them all except Four Swords Adventures) than Minish Cap were Phantom Hourglass and of course Four Swords. But it's all personal preference anyways .
