Items and the item design has always been a huge part of the Legend of Zelda. So I pondered about all of the items in the history of Zelda and came up with the top ten items of the Legend of Zelda. My list is found in this video that I just made:

But I wanted to get your opinions. Now my list was a combination of design, fan favorites, impact it gave the series, etc. But what do you think are the top ten items of Zelda are?

Nice video, but I have only been playing Zelda since Ocarina... So I doubt that I will be able to comment fully.

I'll write up what I know, not in any necessary order:

Bow
Ocarina
Iron Boots
Hookshot
Boomerang
Bombs
Fire Tunic
If it may count: masks
Bottle
Is the sword an item :P?

You're fogeting the all-important bug catching net!

Maybe i've been keeping up with too much sports news...

But after you said "Make it Rain"

Your pronounced Horse a little weird making me think you said another word.

You included the Boomerang and Hookshot nice and high. So it works for me.

bow
boomerang
bombs
hookshot
masks
musical instrument
lantern
hammer
mirror shield
pegasus boots

nice list.

1. Bug catching net. They really need to bring that back.
2. Gilded sword from MM.
3. Biggoron Sword.
2. Blue Tunic (from Zelda I, not the Zora thingie)
3. Bunny's mask - I just love to run fast as hell.
4. Bow
5. Mirror shield
6. Lens of Truth
7. Ball-and-chain from TP
8. Bottle
9. Huge wallet
10. Hooksot.

- all the 'hammers' (esp the replacement 'ball&chain')
'cuz it's devastating...

- all the 'bracelets/mitts/gauntlets'
'cuz it's fun seeing link lift heavy objects

- bomb-tipped arrow + hawkeye
damn fun

- pegasus' boots (SNES)

- double clawshot (TP)

- spinner
f*n fun

- roc's cape

- fairy
  this li'l thing saved my life lotz of tymez

lol @ bug catching net. I love that thing too. lol. There were a lot of things that I wanted to make the list. The Switch hook was a good one. The Fire Rod. The spinner didn't make it because Nintendo didn't do a very good job on overall design in Twilight Princess with it. For example, you used it in the level but after that, it wasn't really used for anything.. which was sad. Also, yeah I didn't consider the sword as an item. It would have been at the front of the list if so.

Ah man, there are FAR too many items in my opinion to be able to accurately compose a 'best of' list. :p
