I haven't done a speed run of ALBW yet, but you are pretty far from the world record. The current record (as far as I know) is 2:17:04 by Bamboocha on ZeldaSpeedRuns.com Here's a link: http://zeldaspeedruns.com/speedruns/6057 I have attempted speed runs of other Zelda games, I have some...

My least favorite is FSA, I think the only thing I really liked about it was the multiplayer. BUT, that's not really a true Zelda, so of the main entries, I'd say Phantom Hourglass is my least favorite. The best thing I can say about it is that sometimes the touch controls were fun, but the...

I really liked unwanted admirer. I just found it hilarious how she started off so cold and bored and then steadily grew to like Link. However, my favorite part is what she says after you turn her down, and continues saying every time you talk to her (I would put it in the spoiler drop down...

Just so you know, the season thing was already done in Oracle of Seasons. They used all of the things you came up with for puzzles, and it's a really fun game. If I had to pick something, it would probably be more uses for motion controls, because I loved SS's motion controls.

When I was six, my parents gave me an N64 for Christmas. It came with Donkey Kong 64 and Star Wars: Rogue Squadron. One day I was looking through my local Gamestop, and I saw Majora's Mask. I thought it looked really cool, so I bought it. That game sparked an obsession that will never die...

If it isn't showing up on the map then it is somewhere on the island of Skyloft. I recommend checking the one inside the bazaar, that's the only one that I know of.

I completely agree that the ice arrows aren't very useful. I got them after Ganon on my first playthrough, and didn't use them once! I haven't gotten them on any of my other playthroughs just because there isn't any point. I think that the prize at the end should have been something else...

There is a significant period of time between SS and OoT. I guess you don't know this, but most of the Zelda games feature different Links. Nintendo has confirmed that many games have spans as wide as centuries between the games, though they have not said whether the different Link's are...

You get a piece of heart after doing all three tasks, and I'm currently having trouble with the harp playing as well. I found this video which should help you, good luck, I'm going to go try again right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j41bxa3vqjQ

Thanks guys, I found it. Now I feel really stupid for not being so thorough! You can close the thread now.

On my map of Skyloft, it shows that I have an unopened Goddess Chest in the North-Eastern part of the sky. I went there, and I found the chest (It's the one behind an explodable wall) and it is dark and won't let me open it. I looked on the map again and I am at the right location, it just...

Mine would be Faron, just because I love the music there. Eldin is pretty cool, but I really love forest settings.

I don't even worry about dodging the spikes, just stand a little bit away from Mothula and spam the fire rod until you don't have anymore magic. After that, just walk up to it and spam your sword, and it'll be over in no time. If you hit every time with the fire rod, you won't even need to use...

1. Song of Storms. 2. Song of Healing. 3. Elegy of Emptiness. 4. Serenade of Water. 5. Epona's Song.

I like the Zora Tunic, Mirror Shield, Kokiri Boots, and Master Sword. There's just something about the red on blue from having the Zora Tunic and Mirror Shield that appeals to me.

I voted for the 3DS version, but I think it's really close. The main advantage that OoT3D has for me is that I can take it with me wherever I go, and I'm out and about a lot. Also, being able to refight bosses in Boss Challenge is really fun, and the Master Quest is a much needed challenge for...

One time I was playing and she said "wonky cupcake," but I haven't been able to decipher anything else.

If you're going for only absolutely necessary items, then I would add that you cannot fill the bottle with anything that heals you, because you really do not need fairies or potions, they just make it easier. I can't think of anything else to add, but good luck, this is gonna be a doozy!

My favorite ending would be the end of Link's Awakening. Even though I've finished the game 4 times, seeing Marin disappear makes me sad every time. I think that it is a profound achievement that a game based on 4-bit technology can make me mourn the passing of a character. Most modern games...

I've played Half Life 2 and the two episodes, never HL1. I agree, it is a really good FPS, and the story and characters really sell it for me. Alyx is so human, I've never believed a videogame character more than her.

Here's a link to a video of a guy doing the whole gauntlet in 6 minutes 57 seconds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU-nFftAzRM He does an amazing job, I knew most of his tricks, but the timing of regular slashes is new to me. The easiest way to fight Volvagia quickly is to shoot him with...

Like a lot of you, Zelda is by far my favorite series. My three favorite individual games ever are OoT, MM, and ALttP. As for other series, I really like Mass Effect. It's just an amazing combination of RPG leveling, great shooter gameplay, player choice, and an engrossing story. I've...

I'm going to be a rebel and vote for Kakariko Village. I've always loved the ALttP/OoT version of Kakariko, but I think I like the TP version even better. Whatever wind instrument they use in it absolutely fits the new tone of the village and sounds great to boot. My second favorite is...

I'm with Bulbasaur (I never thought I would say that...), there isn't much of a point to this thread. We have absolutely no details on the game besides the console it's releasing on, so there's no way we can even make an educated guess. Here's my best guess: It'll have "3D" Somewhere in the...

Mine's a tie between ALttP and LA. I think that ALttP had some of the best dungeon design in the series and also made the greatest advancements, while I loved the story and tone in LA. They're both amazing (just like the rest of the series) but if I had to pick one, I might go with LA.

I definitely wouldn't be power, I'm asthmatic and couldn't do anything in a fight. Courage doesn't really fit me, can't give a reason why, it just doesn't. However, I currently have a 4.5 GPA, but instead of taking AP classes for my 5's, I've been taking actual college classes since I started...

I agree with all the people here, it's the actual act of obtaining the heart pieces and other items that's actually fun. However, I've only ever done one 100% playthrough of OoT, the rest have all been regular and restricted. Right now I'm doing a no shield three heart challenge, and it is...

You should have an option in the poll for people who've played (and beaten) all of them, like me. I have finished every single Zelda game (not counting the CD-i ones), most of them multiple times, even AoL. Yes, I am a complete Zelda fanatic.

I like MM's Zora swim the best because it's the fastest and gives you the most abilities. You can bash into things, you can jump out of the water, you can do that barrier attack thingy, you can walk on the bottom, you can fight on the bottom, etc. It just gives you the most options for unique...

I'm with all of you, I like heart pieces. My main reason for this preference is because one of my favorite parts of Zelda is searching every nook and cranny to find all of the heart pieces. If there are just five heart containers (like in LoZ), then I barely spend any time exploring, and I...

I love them both pretty much equally, and which one I consider my favorite can change at any time. There are times when I revel in the sheer genius of MM's storytelling and art-direction, and other times when I am infatuated with the perfect dungeon design of OoT. Overall though, I would say...

My favorite part of OoT is the Forest Temple. The music, the way everything looks, the theme, all of it just makes me slightly uneasy. Not like the outright (attempt at) horror in the Shadow Temple, more like a very subtle feeling of something being amiss. Not to mention I love the puzzles...

What do you mean it looks like the MM transformations? Do you mean the fangs? Because I think that's just the new face, not her grimacing in pain from turning into another creature...Just sayin'.

Actually, I pull in the same direction that the fish is pulling, and I tend to catch even the big ones easily and quickly. You can try both methods (I have never tried pulling opposite the fish...I'm going to go play some OoT now), but I have had a lot of success with mine.

I think it's a good game by most standards, but compared with some of the great Zelda games (like OoT, MM, ALttP), it just doesn't stack up. The main reasons that some Zelda fans don't like it are that 1. it was overhyped, 2. it was way too easy, 3. it was too similar to OoT and didn't stand...

JamesBond007 already answered your question for this instance, but just so you know, a Gamecube controller can be used for any N64 game on the VC unless otherwise noted. Coincidentally, I just stopped playing MM on the virtual console, and I was using a Gamecube controller. Funny, eh?

Ganon is reincarnated in beast form at the end of FSA. As for the Hero's Shade, does his sword look anything like the gilded sword? I didn't think so. Also, the shield does not have a face on it, it is more of a sun (the Hero's Shade's shield is on the top left)...

MM is probably the hardest 3D Zelda, so I'm not surprised you're having trouble with it. MasterLink is right, the Song of Inverted Time is extremely useful, play it at the beginning of each 3 day cycle and you shouldn't have to worry about time too much. I would say that it is definitely worth...

I started with MM when I was six. I had just gotten my N64 and I was looking for a game, and I saw the box art and thought "that looks cool!" I bought it and once I started playing, I was completely hooked. I had already began enjoying videogames, mainly Pokemon, but MM is the game that made...

If you want good XP, go to the grassy areas north of Death Mountain where you walk slower and fight the weak enemies. You end up fighting 5 octorocks which give 10 XP each. It's not the fastest (which would be to grind in Death Mountain, which isn't an option), but it gets the job done. I...

I always get the Biggoron sword before the Forest Temple. It's really simple, though I usually do the Ice Cavern just so I don't have to do it later. Also, I have never used any beansprouts to do it, I always get to Biggoron with the eye drops with at least a minute left. Another thing, it is...

It is possible. It's extremely difficult, but possible until Ganon. First people get all of the hidden rupees that can be obtained without a candle or bombs, which equals 60 or 70 rupees, enough to buy the candle, then they kill things with it until they get bombs, and then they get the bow...

I finished it for the first time in February, and it was torture at the end. The Great Palace was so difficult that I had to run it about 12 times before I finally killed the final boss. I got to the point that I could get to the end with all my lives, most of my health, and all of my magic...

Some of you may have seen the "Axle facts" video that Caleb posted recently on ZD's Youtube channel. For those of you who are unfamiliar, it was a video where some of the staff members made up "Axle facts," super-human Zelda feats performed by non other than Axle The Beast. I personally found...

I completely agree with you, though most likely for different reasons. PH was my favorite DS game, I don't know why I love it the way I do, but I really enjoy it. However, ST is my least favorite Zelda game because I cannot beat it. Not because the puzzles are too hard, because I have severe...

No, they are completely different games, with different stories, worlds, and gameplay. However, once you have beaten both of them, you can link them with a GB link cable and get some extra content. Another thing to note is that each one focuses on a different part of Zelda gameplay. Seasons...

I agree with Maikeru, I enjoy every part of the game. In my opinion, every part of Ocarina of Time is amazing, and the only reason to dislike anything would be that the first three dungeons are too easy, but you need to remember that this was the first 3D Zelda, so they needed to make them...

You actually can't do a three heart in ALttP, the dungeon item doesn't appear until you grab the heart. Same goes for LA. I really would like to try a 3 heart on ALttp, but it's impossible without major glitching. Back on subject, my best on ALttP was 14 deaths, my worst was 60, but that...

I find him hilarious, especially his over-exaggeration. He can make the smallest thing seem like an enormous problem, but I never take him seriously. Also, a few other games that he "enjoyed" (quotes because I'm sure that he's actually enjoyed many more than this) are Bioshock, Portal, Portal...

I did a 3-heart-challenge and didn't die once, so I'm not the best person to ask since I've been playing the series as long as I can remember. If you don't get frustrated easily and like a challenge, I say go for it. However, since you are relatively new to the series, you may want to try one...
