I own twelve of those and have completed none. And you're telling me that, should I ever actually complete Ocarina, it's gonna be "yeah, whatever, easiest Zelda anyway LOL!!11"? I'd expect a titanic wave of celebration as a minimum.

Only 3 points, but if this was judging Assassin's Creed games I'd be the god-king among all of you.

Can I get more points for completing the same game multiple times? I'd be over 100 (!).

Actually, I think there should be double points for completing the games at the time of release and on their original systems. That's a true King - not some upstart playing the games years later with guides from the Internet!

True, but there's also minus points for being old.

Ha! There should be plus points, as us oldies don't have the quick reflexes and sharp brains anymore!

Overall I'm on zero, then 8-) .

I have 0 points. I've played about 3 of the games, but completed none. I don't consider Zelda the finest series so I'm good with my score.

Yes?

Well done - lacking on the portable side though, should really give some of those a go. Best skip Spirit Tracks though.

Legend of Zelda - 3 points Nope. Maybe finished half of the game, once.
Adventure of Link - 10 points Played it for like an hour. Awful. Nope.
Link to the Past - 2 points Played this for an hour but it simply didn't grab me. I know...
Links Awakening - 6 points Never played it.
Ocarina of Time - 2 points (+1 for completing the Master Quest version as well) Three points here, at last. My first Zelda game. The 3D ones are so much better than the 2D ones... but maybe I only feel that way because I played them that way around? Hm.
Majoras Mask - 4 points Four points to Dan.
Oracle of Ages - 6 points Never touched it.
Oracle of Seasons - 6 points (+2 for finishing joint OOA/OOS) I own it but only got about 2/3 of the way through, way back.
Four Swords - 15 points No.
Wind Waker - 3 points Yes! Another three points. What a game. :wub:
Four Swords Adventures - 7 points Nuh-uh.
Minish Cap - 5 points No.
Twilight Princess - 4 points Yes! 3P for TP.
Phantom Hourglass - 3 points Bought it, played it, didn't like it, sold it.
Spirit Tracks - 3 points I know barely anything about this game.
Skyward Sword - 4 points I'm going to award myself 3 points for this one, because I'm 3/4 of the way through. Actually that's not true, I've finished the game, I just didn't beat the last boss. No way in hell I'm going to try again though. The first 3D Zelda that had long stretched where it simply wasn't fun to play.
A Link Between Worlds - 5 points No.
Tri-Force Heroes - 8 points Sorry, also no.

16 points.

Great stuff on your 3D Zelda there Pun, but I'm going to have to deduct those 3 points. It's all or nothing I'm afraid. The boss at the end of Skyward Sword was fantastic imo, really enjoyed that final battle. I think you should go back and try, however I know that Skyward Sword is a very divisive game.

Four Swords - 15 points No.
Wind Waker - 3 points Nay
Four Swords Adventures - 7 points Nuh-uh.
Minish Cap - 5 points No.
Twilight Princess - 4 points Nix.

Maybe 4 points.

I've played and completed OoT (3). I've played Wind Waker up to the letter sorting mini-game near the start. Also played Majora's Mask for a couple of hours. I give myself a point for those 2 combined.

I know. Funnily enough, I started replaying Link's Awakening recently, but I got stuck in the second dungeon. I think I used the keys in the wrong order, and from memory, this is a game breaking bug...and you have to reset the whole thing.

I had all the other portable games, including the GBC and GBA ones, but they didn't grab me that much - I could tell they weren't developed by Nintendo.

I did start Phantom Hourglass, but gave up on that fairly early on.

My next mission is to complete Majora's Mask - but the whole things seems like a bit of a chore...

looked at this, and was shocked at how poor my performance was considering how much I loved the original, Snes, Gameboy, and N64, Gamecube version. Then saw a couple of posts in I was as shocked 5 years ago.....

I am not sure I even completed the original, so it is even worse

28. I gave my self 4 points for getting stuck at the last sub boss in oracle of ages. That guy was a wanker.
