Okay, so I've never been a Nintendo gamer. Even back to the Sega Genesis vs. NES days, I owned the Genesis. I am now, however, rather intrigued by The Legend of Zelda, due to the massive hype this series gets. What pushed my interest in this series over the edge is how beautiful the upcoming game looks. 

So, I have a couple questions. 

1. Bc there appears to be so many offshoot Zelda games, what are the staple games in the series--the games I absolutely must play in order to enjoy and understand playing thru the upcoming/new Zelda game for Wii U? The less games the better, here. I already have such a big games backlog:/

2. If I were to buy a Wii U, am I able to play all the staple games in the Zelda series on the Wii U? If not, what are my options? (Also, is Wii U BC with the Wii?)

3. Is there any other controller I can use to play on the Wii U? That effing thing seems so awful.

4. Are the Zelda games really so long???? I looked up some of the games on howlongtobeat.com, and they typically range from 15-30hrs! Is this accurate?? If so, it would be quite overwhelming to hop into this series at this point:(

1. Majora's Mask (getting 3d remake on 3ds) Twilight Princess (mussssssst) Ocarina of Time, Windwaker HD

 

2. The Wii U is backwords compatible with Wii software, yes.

 

3. The Gamepad is not awful, even though it looks awful. It is comfortable fits well, is not heavy. (It is a required controller for the new Zelda due to Gyro controls) Unless they put in a option to not use it which they probably will.

4. Some games are longer than others but that is due to the intense puzzles. If you like the puzzles, you will like Zelda and it won't feel that long.

 

 

Hope I was able to help! Hope you enjoy the series and become a Zelda fan! :D
