(i actually thought zelda was a character, i never knew i was playing the zelda main character in smash bros this whole time)

Zelda is a character. She's the princess that Link saves. :)

oh so it's like mario where the it's the same story each game?

Well, yes and no... You see almost every Zelda game is set in a different time from the other (The Exceptions are Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass, Legend of Zelda NES and Zelda II, and A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening... all direct sequels from one game to another). Also Gannon/Gannondorf isn't always the main bad guy who takes Zelda. And in some Zelda games she doesn't only appears once or not at all (Majora's Mask and Link's Awakening). And it's not just him taking her at the beginning, there are times he doesn't know where she is and times she even helps you in the final battle!

Link is the main character (who is a MALE! ). Zelda is the princess of Hyrule but is also very strong in her own right, and Gannondorf/Gannon is usually the main bad guy of the series (They are games were he doesn't appear either, but I don't want to spoil anything if you decide to get into Zelda).


what made ocarina of time so much better than the others?

Well in terms of reception, it was the N64 days and OoT was a genuine revolution in the genre and the first time seing Hyrule in 3D.  So that is one reason it was so incredibly well received.  As for being considered the best...well that's a question you don't want to ask on a Zelda forum, you'll start a civil war :P .  I'll leave the more knowledgeable ones to respond, just wanted to put that out there.

thanks man
