Not true at all. I played my first Zelda (ALttP) 5 or 6 years ago and it became one of my favorite games ever. Same goes for OoT and Majora's Mask which I played shortly after.

The fact that some people are capable of do that doesn't mean is the best option. Like... you can get trough a mountain with a tunnel by climbing it, but the tunnel is the easiest and most comfortable option.

 

I see what you mean but from what I'm gathering, Zelda seems to be one of those franchises that aged really well. I for one loved it despite playing it late.

Indeed, but players nowadays are used to far more simple games than te ones we played in our time (or play). I know that ALttP and Ocarina have aged well (Ocarina a little less), but I just think that in general it might be too complex for a first Zelda contact. I still think that any portable game of the series does the job better. They are not the best games of the series, but as a way to introduct the franchise core gameplay while being easy and not too long in my opinion they are perfect. And once you've finished it, you are fully ready for something more challenging.

But of course, if someone is up to the challenge, they can start with whatever they want xD
