I don't know if I should get it for my gf's SNES or get it some other way really... It seems like most Zelda fans here is longing back to the late 80's and early 90's (excluding Zelda 2 :P). I'd really like to see OoT meet the original somehow :D

You can always get it for Wii. Getting the original for SNES might be a bit hard to get or pricey. Check ebay.
Most people here, or at least those who are vocal about it, seem to have been raised with NES, SNES or N64. That`s why the biggest Zeldas or always the same three: Zelda 1, ALTTP and N64.
It`s rare someone mentioning the handheld games.

YEah, I imagine it'll cost some on the second hand market =/ I just think that a game like that should be enjoyed on the original console :D

Yeah, I get the same feeling: it's the "old school" Zelda enthusiasts that's got all these opinions about where to take the series, and no wonder really; they've seen the series transform from 2D to 3D, to WW, TP and SS - we've seen it all =) But I think Link's Awakening is usually mentioned, for the Game Boy, as one of the best entries in the series?

If i had a SNES i would try playing on it aswell.
People are "always" going to base their comments on what they like to get something that they want, while saying it`s for the best for the series! ;)
SS was one of the most innovative Zeldas in years yet people complain that Zelda is becoming stale.

Honestly, i don`t remember comments about handheld Zeldas being considered the best but if there are, it`s only from a few people.

In truth, the Zelda universe seems to borrow a lot from those 3 Zeldas, in terms os items, quests, characters. MM seems to be the one that changes the overall gameplay mechanics the most, as SS.

Yes, I think these three Zelda games has set the standards for the series as a whole. And I agree that SS was really really new and fresh! I loved how the overwolds (not the sky, mind you - but the forest, desert and lava worlds) had challanges in them and puzzles to be solved! I'd love to see some sort of combination between SS and the original Zelda and aLttP - with a modern take on OoT's art style!!

so im the one who liked the sky in SS?
i only felt it was too small, but a giant sky to explore ala WindWaker would be awesome

I hope that someday Nintendo does a move like MM and changes settings, characters to freshen things up again.
Depending on what Nintendo is preparing OoT`s art style may fit or not. IF the game is like the first Zeldas i don`t know if it will be a good match or if people will notice because the view is basically 2D seen from above whereas OoT art style fits more into a 3D world. But we will see.

Honestly i wouldn`t mind having a game where you had to collect the triforce again and base the game around that, like in the first Zelda. Add a bit of exploration and adventure and make us search for the answers or for the places and how to enter those places.

I liked the sky in SS. Thought it was a good setting, just under explored. Maybe they could have had it more action to it or more content of relevance instead of some side quests.

I loved soaring the sky! :D

that Nightskt looks good, hasnt been priced yet?

NightSky looks interesting. I wish they would release an update to where you can put DSiWare games on the SD card. Right now my 3DS system memory is full due to DSiWare games so I had to put a few on the sd card (which you can't play from) just to be able to download more. I understand it is some way they designed DSiWare games but there has to be a workaround. It isn't that much of a pain in the ass but it is still a little.
