Can’t believe this video is almost FIVE YEARS OLD NOW IN 2022…STILL LOVE IT! More videos with Andrew please

30 yrs still friends. That's an accomplishment.

Johnny, you really need to play Majora's Mask. Its a little tough to get into at first, a lot of repetition in the first couple of hours, but after you get to the point where you can save your game and you learn the song that slows down the flow of time it gets sooo much better. IMO one of the best Zelda games.

These videos are my favorite thing about your channel man, just watching you nerd out with one of your bestfriends about one of my favorite franchises, thank you man for creating these great videos that arent to flashy and only for views, just a man nerding out about his hobby!

Really enjoy the videos when you have Andrew on with you. Brings those nostalgia stories to life even more hearing it from his side as well.

Always great when you guys get together and reminisce, Link to the Past is still my number 1 Zelda game, the music, the beautiful sprite work. Never gets old for me :)

You guys got that good friendship chemistry! Good to see you guys passion for gaming!

I love these videos. They are so heartwarming and a joy to watch. Congratulations on making these, they are amazing!

Where the fuck are you?

Great video guys! As one of the mentioned gamers who experienced Zelda for the first time in 3D I am now super excited to play both Breath Of The Wild AND Link To The Past! Thanks!

Windwaker was one of my favorites, everything about it, the graphics, the color, the combat, the boat, etc.

My favorite is definitely Wind Waker. It's the first one I beat, and I just love everything about it. The art style and the music create such an epic atmosphere, everytime I hear the first few notes of a song from Wind Waker I'm immediately pulled back to when I first played this game on Gamecube. As close to bliss as a game can get for me. :)

Love your video talks with Andrew. Gosh, Zelda is such a wonderful series

My friend Andrew!!

Love seeing other people's experiences too, i like the guests and top 10 lists.

Thanks for the video Johnny. I always enjoy your Zelda videos.

its 2023 and im playing link to the past right now, it definitely still holds up. such a fun adventure

Before the 3D games came out, I remember looking through the manuals for the first three Zelda games, and looking at the illustrations, and just imaging this fantastic world. The 3D games brought this imagination to life.

I enjoy so much this conversations!

Been waiting for this for so long!! Loved you guys talking about final fantasy. Sweeet

"The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" is easily my favorite in the series.

Great video guys! Alot of great stuff.

I’m glad you have a tip of the hat to Minish Cap at the end. I had such a great time playing that game. It was such a perfect marriage of the experience of links awakening and link to the past . Really well executed. It was hard for me to get into Zelda until link to the Past on snes.

great video Johnny!! I can 't help and comment on your pronunciation of composite at 17:02 !!!! never heard that before

Johnny, the black body suit commercial was also in the US, also the guy in it also is the voice for the Tales from the Crypt crypt keeper.

Ocarina of Time was The Zelda of my generation. It's my favourite game ever. I don't know, there's something special in Zelda series, an energy or a Magic... BTW, great video as always. Sorry for my english. Greetings from Brazil!

This game blew my 6year old mind when it came out. The music and adventurous open gameplay forever cemented my love for fantasy gaming.

Link to the past is my favourite. It was my first ever Zelda game and I remember jumping out of the car as a child, running into the store and buying it. On the way home I was mesmerised by the golden box (PAL)

Great channel and the shirts are even better.

i have all zelda games and i also had the first zelda game back in the nes days So I'm fairly proud to have followed the series from the beginning and through all those years

Admittedly I still need to play Ocarina of Time...but of what I have played A Link to the Past is my favorite. It's a masterfully crafted game that serves as a backbone to the action-adventure genre. I love the art and colors as well. I'm slowly making my way through breath of the wild and I'm amazed at how much I was surprised by it, I didn't expect it to be as good as it is. Respect to you both for keeping a friendship alive all these years- that's really something to be celebrated!

The guy from the original commercial was a well known voice actor who voiced a bunch of cartoons but most notably voiced the crypt keeper from the live action tales from the crypt

I'm still rather new to Zelda games, and Link to the Past was my first Zelda experience just a year ago. I think it absolutely holds up! One of the most enjoyable games I've played in a while. Tried the original zelda right after it and found that too hard actually. Currently playing Breath of the wild and plan to go back to some of the other after I've finished with it

If you're looking for some that are similar to your first experience though, I'd say try some of the hand held ones like Link's Awakening, The Minish Cap, and or A Link Between Worlds.

MeebleMeeble I don't know about that, there wasn't as many dungeons as OOT, but it has tons of side quests and secrets to be completed and found, the game's going to feel incomplete it you go in a straight path, but if you go and travel in the world doing side quests and finding secrets, then the game is going to feel bigger than it actually is.

You guys have a really cool friendship.

Hey man, I haven't watched any of your videos for a while now because I have so many subscribed channels and totally forgot about this channel and any of your videos haven't popped in my feed, I'm going to put notifications when you upload a new one but now I have to play catch up XD good luck with your channel

That gold cartridge was so cool i remember my uncle had it and would have all is games out and just thinking how amazing it looked

Majoras mask by far, at the time when I played it for the N64 I just absolutely loved the world they created and the side quests they had were pretty dark for Zelda standard’s, also that moon was sure creepy

Great video man. I was like you with Wind waker and we happy with the cell shaded look but then i played the game and I just could take the long boat rides and never finished it.

Zelda 2 is definitely the most challenging in my opinion, just the Death Mt. area between palace 1 & 2 was difficult getting through when I was younger.

My Fist Zelda was Wind Waker at a friends house. Later my brother got a Gamecube with Mario Kart Double Dash and in it was the Zelda Collectors Edition where you could play OoT, MM, Zelda 1, 2 and 20min of Wind Waker

7-year-old me waking up in 1985 to a Nintendo entertainment system with Mario and duck hunt and an 80cc Honda four wheeler best Christmas I ever had

I love this entire series of games. My favorite was always ALttP and then BoTW came along and became my favorite just like Johnny.

A Link to the Past came with my SNES and I grew up watching my older brother play it. So its got a huge nostalgia factor with me. If was nice neat and compact and it brought me into the franchise! I always think about the time I beat the whole game in one sitting and I literally had the whole neighborhood over watching me play it. The audience grew and grew the further I got,

Ocarina of Time was my first Zelda game and then I played A Link to the Past on an emulator a few times and now I finally have it on the SNES classic

Zelda Twilight princess is my favorite Zelda game in the series. bc i love the story and i like how it took a Dark turn. it was the first of its kind. ocarina of time would be my second favorite

always been obsessed with zelda 2 and I think it was because of the difficulty mixed with how cryptic it was. hidden pitfalls, secret rooms that felt like you weren't supposed to find, ridiculously hard fights with the iron knuckles, and the rpg elements. this was always the zelda that eluded me. I had to borrow it from my cousin in order to play it. this was a point in my childhood when I wanted to see places you were never meant to go. the original metroid made me feel that way too but thats for a different discussion. the hidden parts of the game always felt glitchy so it was very satisfying thinking I found something I wasn't supposed to.

I honestly haven't spent much time with this series played the first game a bit at a friends on his nes as a kid. Brother and father played the N64 games I watched and then there was the newest game on switch which I watched a buddy play a bit and just bought a copy so here I go!

Been wanting this for so long!

Wow... I was looking fwd to your thoughts on majoras mask. Definitely one of the best games ever... In my opinion. Even if you don't like it as much as other titles it is as original a game in the zelda series you will see, even though it reused the Oot engine. The story and villian are a great change of pace.

Hey Johnny. I'm almost ashamed to admit that my first Zelda game was Ocarina of time. However, it totally brought me into the world of Hyrule. After I finished O.o.t I did go back and finish Link to the past and I loved it! I truly love your videos and thank you SO much for all the uploads! Keep it up man.

Zelda Majora's mask is arguably my favourite Zelda game along with Twilight princess. It's just so mysterious and dark and I just wanna find out more everytime I think about it. You guys should definitely give it a chance especially now when it's on the 3DS. I agree though that I'd LOVE a HD remake but I doubt it would happen cause of the 3ds version. Great video btw!

Deerv / MJeyy I agree. Majora's Mask is one of my favorites. I don't think it's a better than a Link to the Past though. As for ocarina of time, I fucking HATE that game!

Skyward Sword is a weird one. It has some issues, the filler, some of the motion controls. But some really good bits, the sand sea with the time stones, the overworld bits being outdoor dungeons. I don't think I'd ever want to play it again, but it was a really interesting experience.

A Link to the Past is still hands down my favorite Zelda game, even though The Adventure of Link was my first, and like your buddy Andrew there I haven't actually had the chance to play Breath of the Wild just yet but my lil brother has shown me quite a bit of it and I think it looks great and I'd really like to play it myself someday.

Majoras Mask is my favorite. I liked the dark weird aesthetics, the story, the characters and how the three day time cycle meant that every character in the game was doing a specific thing at a specific time. I remember when I was in my teens playing this game and getting hit with the realization that I was playing in an actual world with real characters each following their own schedule. It was a "woah holy shit!" moment. Ocarina of Time blew me away as it was my first Zelda experience and first introduction into 3D gaming. I didn't believe anything could transcend that experience until I played Majora's Mask. It's the avant-garde of Zelda games.

Never could get into a Zelda game like I did Mario, not until Breath of the wild. Im still playing it to this day and had it since day one when I got the Switch. Its definitely in the top 5 best games I've ever experienced.

1 Majora's Mask 2 A Link Between Worlds 3 Breath of The Wild 4 Ocarina of Time 5 Wind Waker

Man yeah I miss that. We used to borrow each other's games to fill the gap ECT.

The Mattel logo box release of Zelda for the NES - The gray cart release of the gold cart releases.

I replayed LttP twice in the last month. Once on my New 3DS and again and on New 3DS XL. I'll do it again on the SNES Classic in a couple months too.

my favourite is still: the legend of zelda on the nes, then breath of the wild on two, and i really love the adventure of link zelda 2 on the nes.

I started the series with Ocarina of Time, which is funny because I have been gaming since the NES era and I bought several games for it, but for some reason I never even heard of Zelda until a boy in the neighbourhood lent me his copy of OoT when I was 14. I fell madly in love with it and it was my favourite for years and years. Then A Link Between Worlds dethroned it as my favourite (and I eventually got to fully play Wind Waker and Twilight Princess which also got pretty high on my list) and then... Breath of the Wild. Oh man, that game... My current top 6 Zelda games are: 1. Breath of the Wild 2. A Link Between Worlds 3. Wind Waker (HD) 4. Twilight Princess (HD) 5. Ocarina of Time 6. Minish Cap

I finished Zelda 2 for the first time a couple of days ago (mostly without save states) and loved it. You really gotta play a bit until it clicks though.

Great video. The original Legend of Zelda is still my favorite but Breath of the Wild is probably my second. I bought it for the Wii U on the day it came out and thought I heard all the hype I didn't expect to enjoy it so much. The world is so huge and fun to explore. It probably could've used some dungeons in addition to all the shrines and a few more bosses but it's still a phenomenal game. A Link to the Past is right behind it at number 3.

I've fallen into the rabbit hole that is Link to the Past Randomizer runs. If you've played LttP enough to memorize where most of the things are, that's the next step. Every treasure chest's contents are randomized, but in a way that still makes it possible to complete it. Every treasure chest, you have no clue what'll be in it. It starts becoming one gigantic logic puzzle as you travel across the game world to get the items you need to finish the game. Amazing fun, I'd recommend it at least once.

Ive -played every one of those games as im that old also!! Loving breath of the wild right now, Zelda for life!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I would really love if you made one of these Zelda series videos and included (or solely focused on) the mobile games. The handheld games have been their own world for many years until the 3DS when we got the ports of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask and the system had it's very own A Link Between Worlds calling back to and expanding upon the SNES game. Now with Breath of the Wild it's kind of the perfect time to reflect back on the handheld Zelda games. I think the handheld only Zelda days are behind us with Switch. From the Gameboy through DS and 3DS there's a lot of Amazing games and my love for the entire series started with Link's Awakening. I don't know if we will ever get those bite size handheld games again but I would love if Capcom completed the 3rd Oracle game from the Gameboy Color games and released it on the Nintendo Switch; very similar to how Nintendo had the old Starfox code/plans but with Capcom (or Grezzo or an appropriate dev) who could finish the Oracle series as intended. It's pretty ambitious that Capcom finished 2/3 of the Oracle Games in the short amount of time they did and had them come out as some very strong cult classics. Everyone who played those Oracle games, including myself, seems to love them. Minish Cap is another fantastic GBA game but I think it's practically too short without a remake adding new content to really justify doing a remaster. Will Minish Cap forever remain on the tiny GBA? Seems somewhat appropriate considering the small size of the Gameboy. I remember thinking GBA cartridges were to tiny back in the day and now a tiny piece of plastic smaller than my pinky nail holds terabytes of amazing games from generations. I just get so nostalgic for Zelda and I've always leaned towards the handheld games as much or likely even more than the console games. I've even preferred playing a lot of the games originally created for console better as handheld experiences. Ocarina of Time on 3DS was a well done remaster visually and with performance. Majora's Mask was made even better on 3DS and also got the visual facelift. I wouldn't want to go back to playing Majora's Mask especially on an N64. Having all these games on Switch is great. I hope Nintendo brings a few Zelda GB/GBC/GBA games to Nintendo Switch Online NSO when/if it's officially announced. I know you already know about the games but I watch the channel to hear about YOUR experiences and to hear the things you loved and didn't like. It's very comforting hearing you reminise on your gaming days and I feel many parallels with my own upbringing. We played the same systems. I was born in 89 and my family played Gameboys and the original NES until the n64 came out so when we got n64 it was like my mind was blown by the graphics. The Super Nintendo didn't exist in my childhood, it was a rumor to my small world where the backyard was cornfield as far as the eyes could see. A neighbor down the road had a Sega Genesis and before we moved to Chicago a Sega Saturn I never got to play and I remember loving NBA Jam but aside from occasionally playing Sega with a friend it was me and my older brothers and friends playing NES and Gameboy. Gahhhh I'm writing so much I may as well make a video. If you reply to this comment I will make a video about it.

Ocarina of Time was my first Zelda game I really had an interest in. Even to this day I prefer to play the 3D Zelda games like Majora's Mask, Twilight Princess, and Wind Waker.

Favorite of all time: Link to the Past. Never owned it but rented and beat it at least a dozen times. Legend of Zelda and Zelda II were the games I grew up with and loved, but Link to the Past blew both of those games away in my mind when it came out. Breath of the Wild was an amazing experience and I'll probably play it again over the years, but it just couldn't unseat Link to the Past for me.

Skyward Sword is the only motion control game I've played that I enjoyed. The controls were super responsive.

Awesome video, but I was sad to not get to hear your thoughts on Majora's Mask. If you finish it at some point, I'd love to see an update to this video where you talk about MM.

My favorites - Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks

Skyward Sword is my fave out of all of them! Try and give it another go at some point! I really love them all but the atmosphere in SS is amazing :D

RetroBreak The best music in the series and that’s saying something. I also thought the story and particularly the relationship between Link and Zelda was beautifully done.

i would go back and replay majora's mask anyday! recomend finishing that

So funny when he said the long trips on the water got to him, and Johnny said "i was a smoker at the time" probably why it didn't bother me either, was a stoner lol, and my wife quit due to all the travel. She gets motion sickness with games though :/ Wind waker blew me away. I was into it from the moment i saw the gameplay on X-play lol. All my friends hated it. I always enjoyed more stylized art. But i also skipped N64 so this was my first 3D Zelda game... it had a PROFOUND effect on me. By this installment the 3D element was fully realized and they had a lot of time to perfect it. I can't make my mind up whether Legend of Zelda 1, Link to the Past, or Wind waker is my favorite in the series, because they all blew me away at the time of their release, but nostalgia points me to the original. EDIT: I have NOT played Breath of the wild... i'm waiting for the inevitable upgraded Switch model to dive in. I hope Nintendo releases something soon, or i'll cave in lol. Iv'e messed with the PC port of it, but i want the real deal, on real hardware!

i never finished any zelda game i always start and then i forget about it . I did get into ocarina of time on a n64 emulator in my teens

My favourite main series console game is both Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild. My favourite handheld game is A Link Between Worlds

Johnny ! You should talk about emulation ! i think its a worthy topic since your a retro game collector and i'm soon gonna be collecting retro games again to. But anyways i think you addressing the controversy of emulating games vs collecting them would be a cool thing to listen on to.

I remember seeing the commercial for A Link to the Past for the first time, and seeing Link using magic, blew my fucking mind. I could not wait to play it. A Link to the Past and Sim City on SNES consumed most of my summer.

For the story, music, art design, and sword moves as well as the bosses and atmosphere (and more reasons) Twilight Princess is my favorite. However for the exploration, interesting npcs, and world Breath of the Wild I believe is the runner up. There are some things that game does so well.

Wind Waker remains my favorite, despite the boat thing near the end. Funny thing back in those years, a friend complained it was too childish, we were freaking 12 12!!! (or so)

I wish they would have mentioned the portable games, Link's Awakening, Oracle of Seasons and Ages, Minish Cap, Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, Link Between Worlds, etc.as they kept the classic 2d Zelda formula alive. I would have to say that Link to the Past and Wind Waker were my favorites in the series. Wind Waker is a masterpiece, visually, sonically, and the gameplay elements were improved, it felt faster than the N64 Zelda titles. Wind Waker was the breath of fresh air that the series needed, it revitalized the franchise and offered up a unique experience.

1. Breath of the Wild 2. Majora's Mask 3. Wind Waker 4. Ocarina of Time 5. Minish Cap

I'd say Ocarina of Time is my favorite Zelda game because of the many great memories I have with it. But Zelda II: The Adventure of Link is a very close second precisely because of how different it is (particularly the RPG elements and combat, which feels very engaging and intense). These are the only two Zelda games I find myself constantly revisiting from time to time.

Oot is my all time favorite game, but majoras mask is my favorite Zelda game!

Link to the Past will always be my favorite. Loved the music, graphics, The dungeons, everything about it. LoZ was the first one I ever played but LttP is my true love. I got bored with BotW after about a little while to be honest. Been about 4 months since playing. Guess I should at least finish it.
