Similar Games to the legend of Zelda?

Dude. I hear you. Of all the games to NOT have a thousand clones, why does Zelda have to be one of them? My guess is that they take quite a bit more planning and crafting than your average game. 3D Zelda-like games, you're pretty out of luck. 2D you've got more options, but I know they're not the same.
