New people getting into the Legend of Zelda series will say that Majora's Mask or The Wind Waker are better than Ocarina of Time, but that's just non-sense. People saying that A Link to the Past tops OOT... well, they're almost right to be honest, but ALTTP didn't have as much impact as OOT did for its time.
Majora's Mask is built on the same engine as OOT, and it barely brought anything new. It was more annoying than anything to be honest (especially when trying to get 100% in the game. Some of the worst design decisions I've ever seen). The Wind Waker was good, but there are some flaws in the gameplay (like a last minute fetch quest and other things), which OOT don't have at all.
Oh man, it hurts to try finding bad things to say about Zelda games...! @_@

Barely brought anything new? MM is the most original and creative Zelda that I have ever played.
You can play as a Deku Scrub, a Goron, or a Zora. Other masks also modify Link, like the Bunny Hood, which makes him run faster. The people in the game actually have a life, and go about their day whether you interact with them or not. Most other games the NPCs just stand around waiting for you to talk to them. The three day mechanic that allows this very detailed world is also quite new.
I would definitely agree that OoT has had a much bigger influence on gaming, but to say that MM barely did anything new is just wrong.
