Forums - Nintendo - Whats your favorite handheld Zelda?

This is including the port of a Zelda 3: A Link to the Past.

So what is your favorite?

Mine personally would be Zelda: Links Awakening!!!



Me: Even if you think you like me... You Don't! It's just that simple. I can be the bigger man and accept Xbox 360 may have some good games but screw their Hardware to HELL!!! F*** the RROD!!! Me: I'm not a fan boy :D. I just choose to hate everything Micro$oft and I love being immature! Can't wait to talk to you! Aesop: It is easy to be brave from a safe distance. Aesop: We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. Me: STFU... I'm eating tacos....... I reverse...... yea! Predictions for 2008 Coming Soon!!!

Phantom Hourglass is a lot of fun.. but I have not yet played The Minish Cap and, from everything I've heard, its the best handheld Zelda.



Links Awakening - though I must admit Phantom Hourglass is giving it a run for its money.



If A Link to the Past is in the running, I'll go with that.  It's my favorite Zelda after all.

It is. Not everyone liked it though ("Wah! It's made by Capcom!") All the handheld Zeldas had different qualities, but I especially liked The Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass.

Speaking of which, I have hopes for more games in the Four Sword saga in the future, if Phantom Hourglass is any indication. 

Incidentally, the assistant director/scriptwriter worked on both TMC and PH - Could explain some similarities.

For me Minish Cap > Phantom Hourglass > A Link to the Past as my top 3.



My other choice would be Minish Cap :D

You're forcing me to choose between LttP and Link's Awakening? *head explode*

*head reforms* Wait, LttP was a port. OK, OK. Yeah, I'll subtract arbitrary points for that. Yeah...

Link's Awakening - The ending was worth it.
LttP - Ported perfection



Minish Cap - Pretty good hybrid of LttP gameplay with Wind Waker's style.


Oracle games - They felt like great fan mods of Link's Awakening.

 

EDIT: Haven't played Phantom Hourglass yet. 



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

Link's Awakening my favorite handheld zelda, I still play it.
It fells like magic ;)

Minish Cap is good but not that good



I've never been much of a handheld guy. I only had the GB and the only game I remember was tetris ^__^

But now I've gotten a DS and Phantom Hourglass so that's my favorite :D



Predictions for December 31st 2008:
Wii 38,000,000
DS 84,500,000
PS3 17,000,000
PSP 41,000,000
