Siliconera Speaks: Which 2D is Best? Zelda Game?

I can’t choose because it’s on top Zelda Games are my hobby. I love both. Prophet of the Seasons And Prophet of the timesbut what i remember most is Link’s Awakening and the beautiful song “Ballad of the Wind Fish”. Special mention also goes to A link between worlds and experimental ideas with item rentals and being able to complete dungeons in any order. — Daniel

I mean, I think I would have to say The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. It really captured my heart and attention the first time I played it. The island has such personality, and it was fun to explore. Plus, it really helped me get into the genre on my first handheld. — Jenni

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap will always stand out to me as my favorite “traditional” 2D style Zelda game. The beautiful cel shaded art style remains the same to this day. Even though this was my first game in the series, Ocarina of TimeIt still captures my heart with its novel dungeons, puzzles, and combat. The best part about it is how it somehow makes it all work on the GBA’s severely limited controls. — Cody
