Daily Debate: Why Is Minish Cap Such an Overlooked Zelda Game?
Posted on March 31 2018 by Andy Spiteri
When talking about the great Legend of Zelda games, one often hears about the Ocarina of Times, A Link to the Pasts, and Breath of the Wilds. A game one does not usually hear is The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. But why?
Hiding on the Game Boy Advance is a expertly crafted, tightly mechanized, 2D top down Zelda. Introducing a new, compelling Zelda villain, a awesome take on the Zelda franchises affinity for duality, and a rewarding side-quest system through-out. So again, this begs the question of why?
Was it because it was released after the remake of A Link to the Past on the GBA? Was it because the upcoming Twilight Princess cast such a big shadow? Or is there another reason? Let’s talk in the comments below!
