At the risk of offending folks... I think Skyward Sword is better than Ocarina of Time.

As long as you aren’t saying that Skyward Sword is better than Majora’s Mask, you’re not gonna be offending me lol. I’ve never played SS nor OoT…I really need to get on that one day.

I haven't actually played all the way through MM. I've just never been able to get into it. Actually bought the 3DS version recently, so maybe I'll be able to finally finish it.

Kidding, different strokes of different folks. I do think Skyward Sword is a great game, Ocarina is just one of the greatest of all time in my book.

Such statement will offend SS haters more than OoT fans so... good job! :P

The original on N64 maybe but playing both SS (Wii) and OoT (3DS) - you are wrong.

SS' motion controls make me barf and OoT 3D QoL features blow SS away.

Ocarina was way better for its time, but I think SSword ultimately holds up better. Better dungeon design, better combat, better bosses. The only real advantage I see Ocarina having is better pacing.

My most recent playthrough was on Switch and N64 (via Nintendo 64 app on Switch). 

Didn't mind the motion controls now, and don't remember having any issues on Wii either. They add a very much needed layer of depth to the combat which in OOT was a bit basic. Revolutionary in the mid 90s, but basic by today's standards.

I wanted to play on the Switch app cause I have an N64 controller. I have played the 3DS version, but I don't remember the changes to have been that excessive. The inventory management was a bit better especially since you could map the boots to buttons. And there was a hint system I think. 

Next time I play through it, which probably won't be for a few years cause I'll probably replay other Zelda games first, I'll probably do the Master Quest version on 3DS. Maybe it will change my mind.

My Wii version experience was atrocious as far as Fi's annoyance of telling me to take break and telling me to change my batteries.

But what made me mad was how awful the motion plus was , had to re-calibrate every couple of hours. 

Aside from that SS was a pretty good game, was in my top 5 until recently.

My top 5 right now....

1. Breath of the Wild (WiiU)
2. Twilight Princess (GCN)
3. Ocarina of Time (3DS)
4. Majora's Mask (3DS)
5. Link to the Past (SNES, GBA)

(If I didnt play OoT3D and MM3D , then Link's Awakening would have been #4 and SS would have been #5)

Planning to play SS on Switch eventually alongside BotW, ToTK, Link's Awakening remake and Echoes all which I have.



On the topic of controversial opinions… I can’t say that DKBananza has really “blown me away.” IDK. The game gives me a headache and triggers sensory overload issues, so I’m constantly in an overwhelming state of fight-or-flight. I really love DKCReturn & Tropical Freeze, but Bananza just isn’t doing it for me. :/ Maybe once I get a little deeper into the game, I’ll become more comfortable and accustomed to everything (or maybe once I get started with CBT therapy lol b/c I did just get started with somebody).
