You tried, OP

>handheld shit
>mainline

Then how do you explain this, OP?

>SS
>TFH
>good
You tried OP.

At any rate, Kirby counts

So your only counting the console installments? Your still off because:

>LoZ
>AoL
>FSA
>SS

I thought the first Zelda was enjoyed by everyone. Then again, I don't see it discussed any either.

>Majora's Mask
>Four Swords
>Wind Waker
>Four Swords Adventure
>Minish Cap
>Twilight Princess
>Phantom Hourglass
>Spirit Tracks
>Skyward Sword
>A Link Between Worlds
>Tri Force Heroes

Would you like to try again, OP?

>Majora's Mask

whats the best zelda?

The original Zelda is still the best.

its pretty basic
i had a nes, but lttp was my first zelda so it kinda ruined me

Super Mario Brothers.
Grand Theft Auto
Silent Hill

Absolutely not.
It may have been revolutionary for its' time, but it's far from the best.

Skyward Sword.

2D: ALttP/ LA
3D: OoT/MM

WW is the worst 3D zelda

lol

It was revolutionary for its time AND it's still the best.

Proof of this lies with the fact that Breath of the Wild is drawing heavily from the original Zelda and as a result caused the first stampede at E3 since the Wii reveal.

Wind waker is good you cunt.

For it's time
Trash
ALttp is best zelda
WW>OOT>MM

>implying they're bad

You don't put the apostrophe after its unless you mean to say "its" is possessing "time" you fucking dipshit

Remove the empty sea, triforce quest, turn difficulty from baby mode to the average easy of the series and then WW will be the best 3D.

Worst mainline Zelda is Four Swords Adventures and it's still alright if you have some friends. There are disappointing Zeldas but no real "actually bad" ones.

Skyward Sword is the closest thing we have to a bad Zelda title, and even then it's very disappointing and underwhelming. But still not worth playing.

Fish tits

Playing WWHD now. Difficulty was fulfilled with Hero Mode, sea is still empty but traversing it is like 4x faster between the Swift Sail and no longer having to pause for chart reading, and the Triforce quest has been heavily gimped. Still arguably the weakest 3D Zelda though because the main quest in general is still subpar, the dungeons in particular still being ridiculously dull affairs.

Better yet, add Tri Force Heroes to that. Two Zelda games not worth playing. Four Swords Adventures gave you a lot of freedom for the singleplayer mode, a lot more than some people realize. That's how you do a multiplayer Zelda. Tri Force Heroes should have been ALBW2 and called it a day. It's the only title I don't own because of how obvious of a rushjob it was.

SMT
Etrian Odyssey
Contra

Yakuza
Onimusha

Fuck, I keep forgetting that TFH even exists. It's the only mainline Zelda I have no intention of buying.

I agree with OP. I really, really dislike Twilight Princess but I can't call it a bad game. I go from liking to absolutely adoring every single other game in the series.

LoZ and AoL aren't bad, you just don't like them, and FSA isn't mainline

>TFH
>Mainline
It's a spinoff, on top of that it's a handheld game.

Objectively Kirby. I'm not even a huge fan of them but none of them are "bad"

Handheld doesn't invalidate it from beinf mainline. There's no basis for thinking that, especially if you acknowledge the timeline. And even if you don't, you're gonna tell me that excellent titles like Link's Awakening and the Oracles aren't mainline?

FS, FSA and TFH are mainline in that they're recognized as part of the timeline. If you don't want to consider them so because of the multiplayer focus, I guess you can. Calling the single-player handheld games not mainline though is stupid.

>Grand Theft Auto
>What is GTA IV

Zelda is my absolute favorite Series of all time, and you're full of shit.

Not FULL of shit, it's definitely debatable. Hardly every Zelda is great, but I can't think of any mainline ones that are an abject disaster.

they aren't mainline, get over it.

Elaborate, please.

Zelda 2

We meme a lot about Skyward Sword but it's still an incredible game, just not an incredible "zelda" game.

That's how great the Zelda series, that it's held to that regard.

Skyward Sword.

No it isn't. It only gets a pass because it's a Zelda game.

And the casual makes his inevitable entry.

>We meme a lot about Skyward Sword but it's still an incredible game, just not an incredible "zelda" game.
I like it as much as most other Zeldas.

I think the view of a "bad game" is often skewed. When someone says that Skyward Sword is a bad game, obviously they're not saying it's broken or completely unplayable, but given the standards the Nintendo and the Zelda Series have set, Skyward Sword is a bad game. But on the other hand, if you compare Skyward Sword to something like Big Rigs, Skyward Sword is a masterpiece. The entire point of technology getting better is that, logically, games are supposed to be bigger and better than before, but when something from almost 20 years ago, Ocarina of Time, manages to still be the definitive 3D Zelda experience, then the attempted successors are failures.

MM>OoT=TP>WW>SS

On the contrary, I think it gets more shit BECAUSE it's a Zelda game. It fucks with the established mechanics and progression while replacing good ideas with ultimately worse ones. If it was a no name action adventure then no one would care, but the name Zelda was tied to it so expectations were high and SS's quality just didn't measure up to that name.

>MM=OoT>TP=WW>SS

fixed

I think the Kirby series is depressingly boring.

Eh, I don't agree but I'm not angry either. It's okay.

>mainline

...

A multiplayer handheld game with no single player is hardly considered mainline

That in and of itself is a skewed perception, judging a game against its predecessors rather than on its own merits. That's not to say Zelda games didn't get more flawed shortly after OoT because they did, but none have screwed up so bad as to be called a bad game. Bad when weighed against OoT, sure. But overall, Zelda is still okay at worst.

Yes, they are. What was the purpose of this post

just because you like them doesn't make them good, kid

Souls

No, the fact that they are good makes them good

>But on the other hand, if you compare Skyward Sword to something like Big Rigs, Skyward Sword is a masterpiece.

I think it's been acknowledged as mainline by the creators. Apparently you play as ALBW Link in it.

Four Swords Anniversary added single player. Both Four Swords Adventures and Triforce Heroes have it by default.

That's what I said.

>But on the other hand, if you compare Skyward Sword to something like Big Rigs, Skyward Sword is a masterpiece.
I would honestly rather play Big Rigs.

you sound like a cool guy that's fun to be around

they are counted in the official timeline so they are mainline, I don't give a fuck about your head canon.

There are no bad mainline zelda games. Some There are great ones, good ones, and alright ones, but none that are truly bad.

Out of 11 titles you picked, I only maybe agree in one or two of them being bad.

0/10 get some good taste.

Is the Isle of Demon's twilight version gonna be available before the demo ends?

nvm wrong thread

Skyward Sword is my favorite game...

You don't need to hide behind spoilers. Skyward Sword is a great game.

Wind Waker is a half-finished game that they tried to pretend was complete by making travel slow as shit and inserting the triforce quest. It could be several hours shorter and be improved because of it.

Big Rigs and Skyward Sword are equally bad in that neither are worth playing. There is no reason to differentiate further unless you are comparing within the series to see if it's getting better or worse over time.

SS has some good parts so I disagree with that notion.

Atleast we can all agree that CDi Zelda games are the best, right?

Same here to post this and The Elder Scrolls.

SS may have been underwhelming for a Zelda title, but it was far from a bad game.

GTA IV is an incredible game.

Mario

was there ever a game on the cdi that was good?

>loz
>aol
>bad
you're just shit

...

No. There are threads almost daily shitting on MGSV. 4 was shit too.

...

only the 2D zelda games are any good tho and not even all of them

Nigga, you high. There were only three or so good Zelda games so far.

Prove that any of them are objectively bad. You can't, but it will be funny to read whatever nonsense you come up with.

...

Fuck that's cool
