Edit: turns out these are all bootleg and I’m a moron. Only two Zelda games were officially released for GBA.

Just kicked off a return.

I've played almost every Zelda except 1+2 (I swear I'll get to it...someday) and the CD-i ones. BotW + TotK was some of my favourite times with the franchise, it really took me back to experiencing the OoT + MM duology.

I think a lot of the "People hate BotW/TotK/x Zelda" is partially an online circlejerk, tbh. No matter what the vocal Zelda fans may tout as "popular" opinion, there's actually a lot of variance in and outside of the Zelda community. I remember when Wind Waker and Twilight Princess were touted as the black sheep of the franchise, and look at them now.

(Except Wand of Gamalon. That might be the one universally hated Zelda game in my experience, lol.)
