THANK YOU.

I don't think I'll ever forgive Wind Waker for butchering the Zelda series so horribly. Thank fuck they made Twilight Princess afterwards which returned Zelda to what it should be.

I forgot about Wind Waker.  To this day I scratch my head with the number of people who consider it one of the best Zelda games.  It seems obvious to me that the game was rushed to market and suffers from a major lack of polish and painfully obvious cut content (replaced by the infamously repetitive fetch quest).  And I really was never a big fan of the sailing motif.  Especially at the beginning, as I recall pointing my boat in the direction of one of the first objectives and just changing the channel.

It's a bit of a shame too, because, outside of Link's poor character model (sorry, first impressions of Link were valid), they really did nail the presentation and it has one of the most innovative storylines in the series.

I will push back on Liquid Laser's comments about the N64 controller though.  That baby was ergonomic bliss.

It may just be me.  I was born with a deformity where I only have 2 hands.
