The idea was seeing people preferences after N64 gen. Though 21th century is a cooler way of phrasing it.No Majora's Mask?
Edit: oh right, the 21st century technically started in 2001, not 2000.
Anyway, to answer the question, I think it'd be Wind Waker for me.
I really enjoyed ALBW. This game is definitely the one I'd like to see the most translated to 3D. You have a core ability but also items. You have freedom but also a nice narrative. And of course a plot point where it unlocks new places to explore.Link Between Worlds for me, but I feel like I could also have picked Minish Cap or TotK on any given day too.
I just feel the LBW is so complete and elegant in its core ‘turn into a 2D painting’ thing? It’s used for moving to the other world, for shortcuts, puzzles, defence in combat (the boss where you can literally hide on its shield is inspired), exploration. Just runs neatly through the whole game. No fuss, no convoluted hour-long tutorial. Just something that’s simple to grasp, elegant game design and seperates it from LTTP.
Oh dang. Definitely feel like you'll enjoy the others just as much as Skyward Sword at least. Here's to hoping for ports of tp/ww in switchSkyward Sword (HD). I really love the motion control combat, the artstyle is gorgeous, the dungeons and music are sublime, and it's just a vibe in general. I have yet to play any 3D Zelda before it though, so I have no experience with Ocarina, Majora, Windwaker, and Twilight Princess. My Zelda experience is limited to BOTW, TOTK, Links Awakening remake, and Skyward Sword HD.
I've been sitting on TP for years hoping for a remaster. I think I'll just play the original if there's no news by the time the Switch successor is announced. I've heard way too many good things about this game to not play it.Twilight Princess. The vibes are just 10/10 and I still think it's the greatest game ever made.
