Which Zelda Game Took the Longest to Appreciate? – Zelda Challenge

In such a beloved series, not every Zelda game is received well by everyone when it is first released. Maybe you can’t get over a certain mechanic, or maybe you just don’t like the style of gameplay it presents. If you are stubborn, maybe you put that game away forever and never touch it again. There are times in life, though, where we all deserve a second chance, and we need to pull those games off the shelf and give them another shot.

The fresh eyes of age and experience may provide some additional insight to a once-shunned game. It could even be a revelation that the game is more brilliant than once suspected. In a new episode of the Zelda Challenge, Kevin and I debate which one of these games took longer to receive appreciation. Kevin gave a more personal account with his experience with Majora’s Mask, while I argued about the perception of Zelda 2 within the whole community.
