I'll just give my quick opinions as this is the game that really 'got me hooked'. I did play original and zelda 2 intermittently with my brother, but i was not hooked by any means. The first coolest part that I enjoyed was hyrule castle and the music that comes with it. Secondly, the whole light/dark world warping was a really awesome game mechanic for this adventure game! Lastly, I really loved the map in how it gave you hints on where you need to go next instead of having to talk to every single NPC in every single time for subtle hints about something All in all, I like this game the best and I probably pick it up and beat it once a quarter for fun and nostalgia.
