oracle series had WAY more fun packed into them. those puzzles were SWEET and the weapons were 1337

[Tri-Force]

by the way 1337 is how you are suposed to type it not 7331

[Eagle]

Nah, Links awakening was better. It had just as many puzzles as the other two and had a much better story line too.

[blizz]

I like all of them :D

[Adult Link]

I like all of them too so I really can't decide between them :thumbsup: .

I love all Zelda games, but I preefer the oracle series. But I don't think that Link's awakening has a better storyline... The oracle series togheter have a great storyline I think.

[noctrun]

links awakening is better, the oracle series has to many annoying 'must complete' minigames (dancing for example) for my taste

[Anchel]

? I like it a lot for the minigames, just like in Zelda Ocarina of Time...

[Tri-Force]

SOOOOOOOOOo many people cant do the Goron dancing and thats why they hate the game. I sat here with my friend and it took him 2 DAYS to get past the FIRST PART of the dance. no rythem what so ever

[zorbid]

I didn't finish the Oracle games, so I can't judge them in their whole. I was bored after three or four levels. For what I know, the story is "Oh, shit the weak goddes has been kidnaped by the bad guy. Go find the n items to rescue her". Kinda basic. There are good ideas (season and time puzzles, great items), but I find the story boring.


Link's Awakening has one of the most creative storyline I've ever played. I've been completely catched, and was realy sad (playing a GB game !!) when I learnt the truth about the Island.

I mean, it is really mysterious, you have to discover the secret of the Island, what is that WindFish thing, and so on, step by step... It's quite weird somtimes too... The last boss, fight Link's worst nightmares. So many great Ideas. I love that.

And the music sticks so much to the athmosphere. The intro was stunning (for a GB game), and the outro once again made me feel something. Link's Awakening is my favorite Zelda game (and one of my favorite games at all:)). Can't wait for the next one.

i have completed all three Zeldas. it was a long time ago, but i remembered Link's Awakening's storyline goes somewhat like this:

1: Storm, Link is knocked unconscious
2: Link dreams
3: Link wakes up

u call that a good (original?!?!?!) storyline?!?!

Dont get me wrong, I liked all three. I actually have fonder (is this a word?) memories of Link's Awakening. but u stating that it has a more original storyline is absurd.

[zorbid]

What I find great is that, at the beginning of the game, you don't know that Link is dreaming (at least I didn't). The inhabitants are quite weird, and the universe is oniric (a little, but not enough to let you figure) . What I find original is that you have to discover thart you are stuck in your own dream.

Do you know another game with a scenario that comes close to this? :sly: I don't .

I also like minigames, but the annoying thing is that you MUST COMPLETE them to in order to get on with the game

that has nothing to do with rythem it's just button acrobatics that destroy every game

btw I did the goron dance in no time

[Anchel]

I agree with PJ64er.
But what zorbid says about the weird characters.......
Every Zelda game has weird characters. But the Oracle series have a much better storyline than Link's awakening.
As PJ64er said, Link's awakening storyline is:
1: Storm, Link is knocked unconscious
2: Link dreams
3: Link wakes up
In the oracle series, the story can get boring if you don't get to the 6th dungeon, where you see that there is something else behind those "bad guys" plans. I'm not saying anymore, since I would be spoiling the ending.
About the minigames..... THEY ARE PRETTY EASY!!!!

no because its too cheap.

[barronfel]

I like them both. Did any1 see the bow-wow in Links Awakning?

[h-e-l-l-o]

I agree with zorbid the story is much better than in oracle

1.Oracle gets kidnapped
2.Link rescues
3.the other Oracle gets kidnapped
4.Link rescues
5.If you linked your game u fight *** and ***

awesome:plain2:

[zorbid]

Pj64er, this is a matter of personnal taste. I don't think that one of us will convince the other. I love how they were able to use the theme of the dream in a video game (I'm not sure that sentence is understandable, cos' it is a litteral translation from french. Sorry if it isn't). And I'm a big dreamer, you know. :) Did any1 see the bow-wow in Links Awakning?

:cry: Wooooot !!!! My Bow-wow was dognapped:cry:
By the Mmm MMmmm m m m Mobliiins!!!

Does Bow-wow appears in a game before Link's Awakening?

[pj64er]

agreed zorbid. amybe we have cultural differences? for me, any story that ends with a "it was all a dream" just allows an alternate universe and not affect the rest of the series. therefore cheap imho.

ive seen bow-wow in mario 3 ;)

[Tri-Force]

his name was chain chomp then

[barronfel]

Thax 4 the info Tri-force!Does Bow-wow appears in a game before Link's Awakening? I don't think so.

[Anchel]

Bow-wow (or chain chomp) appears in Super Mario Bros 3, Yoshi's island, The Legend of Zelda; a link to the past and Super Mario 64. So, yes, it appeared before link's awakening

[pj64er]

afaik, mario3 and SNES zelda was the only games that came before zelda GB

[zorbid]

Where does it appear in A Link To The Past? AFAIK, it doesn't.

[Anchel]

I wanted to say all the games where he apeared.
In A link to the past, he appears in the Turtle Cave Dungeon. Play it if you want.

[zorbid]

I believe you. I played the game a long time ago (something like 1993-94). I suppose I forgot that. Is it an ennemy? And if yes, is it possible to kill it?

[Anchel]

It was an enemy you couldn't defeat. You just had to try not to touch it. It was something like this:
x = Link
C= Chain Chomp
. = Chain
____ = wall
------- = barrier (you can't get trough, chain chomp can
" = Door

Damn, I'm not good at ASCII drawing

Sorry, I can't do it, but you can imagine how that is
When I post it, the width changes, so I can't draw it exactly

[Tri-Force]

he was there on both sides and you had to throw the boomerang to hit the switch then run like hell to the door in between the too of them.

[zorbid]

Damn, I'm not good at ASCII drawing Thanks for trying. =^__^=

If you want to draw with ascii, use the [ code ] [ /code ] thing.

I think I will have to replay the game, so, don't bother redrawing it.

[h-e-l-l-o]

Someone rename the topic to "Where is the chomp?"

[barronfel]

Sorry if that remark caused ne trouble. (just courius;) )

You'd better wait for the GBA release, I'm sure it will be better

[h-e-l-l-o]

nah I think it will be a simple remake with MP mode

[pj64er]

think about what you just said h-e-l-l-o...Anchel is right, GBA's will be better

MP (Classic) Zelda :inlove:

[Anchel]

It was about time someone agreed with me
