I'm not very good at most to all first/third person adventure games lol Wind Waker was different, that game is simply beautiful in every aspect and it was easier than the others imo. I do like Oot, I even bought the 3DS remake, but it's not my favorite Zelda game. As for MM, I suck ass at it lol I've watch an entire LP of it (by Chuggaconroy) and it was a fantastic game to experience as a spectator. Tired to adhere to dups clause as best as I could as well

Wind Waker is my number two game but it doesn't compare to how good OOT was the first time I played it. I only finished MM maybe once or twice because I was kinda shit at it to be honest. I love watching speed runs on it so much. They show me how the game should be played and how off I was when I first did it.

Lol I enjoyed Majora's Mask. The time concept of going back in time and time traveling using the Ocarina of Time, and Song of Time was great and original for the series. Also, the fresh land of Termina and Majora's Mask being the main boss(while Skull Kid was just a puppet) was creepy, yet awesome at the same time. I enjoyed the mask transformations too, and how many masks and different powers each one had in the game I also enjoyed the dialogue in the game, and the romantic moments like bringing Kafei and Anju together was beautiful. I also enjoyed fucking around with Tingle and using the Goron bomb. The game itself, with the dungeons and problem solving is difficult at times, but it's just very fun to me. The different levels, and environment was also great. The only thing I didn't like about the game was how it reused the characters from Ocarina of Tme and just changed their names, and a few character's purposes. Not enough though to make me dislike it at any level, it just bugged me a bit.

Ocarina of Time, was the shit. My first Zelda game, and it had a wide diversity of dungeons, Hyrule Field was fun to explore, and time traveling with the Master Sword was just GOAT. I think the storyline here was much better than the one on Majora's Mask. I also enjoyed watching Epona jumped the fence and saying fuck you to the guy who trys to lock you in Lon Lon Ranch. Gameplay was fun, dungeons weren't as hard(except for the Shadow Temple) as Majora's Mask. Not to mention, side quests like selling masks were fun too.

Was expecting some explanations for these after reading your Cena post but I suppose doing that for thirty of them would be excessive (hell, I've done it for twenty games before and that was definitely excessive). As for your list, it's a pretty good list with a lot of good games on there. Personally, MP3>MP4, Soul Calibur III>II (though two is definitely the second best in the series), Mario Kart DS>Wii & Majora's Mask is my favorite in the Zelda series (Ocarina of Time is a close second but Majora's Mask just really hit a chord with me) but I haven't been able to play a lot of Wind Waker so I'm not sure if that remain the same. Liked for Donkey Kong Country, glad to see I'm not the only one who places the original over the second (unless you haven't played the second in which case I jumped the gun but still), and Day of Reckoning 2, definitely my favorite wrestling game of all-time. Not a lot of modes or stuff but the gameplay was amazing and the chaotic fatal four ways (steel cage especially, second would probably be last man standing matches) were great. I wish the weapon physics weren't toned down in comparison to the first game but otherwise, the gameplay is perfect. Never cared for Star Fox 64 though outside of all the sexual innuendos (also, it's an aileron roll Peppy you terrible pilot [Slippy's still worse]).

I'll probably reply with my own personal top thirty list later, don't have the motivation to do that much thinking at the current time.
