What was the first Zelda game you ever played?

[Transient Link]

My first game was LoZ, but..I dont remember it much at all. I only remember the gold cartridge, and walking around in the mountains, thats it. But my real love for Zelda came when I got OoA and OoS, I fell in love with those games, they took up most of my childhood, I still play them today..well...not OoA anymore..it wont turn on!! NOOOOO, and OoA was my favorite of the 2..Then I went to play LADX, than I bought OoT used "I was like 9, I didnt know it was greatest game ever and I HAD to get it lol" I still remember when I couldnt find the kokiri sword and I went into the sacred forest meadow, beat the wolfo, with a deku stick and deku nuts lol, and thought the sword was on the teleport pad in front of the Forest Temple. Now I know I seem stupid, but you gotta admit, me being nine, and getting through the Lost Woods, and the SFM, without a sword, is pretty darn good. I also remember not beating it until 3 years later cause I was afraid of the Beamos in Dodongos Cavern, the Redeads, so it took me a year to beat BoW, and Shadow Temple, I even skipped the Shadow Temple and beat the Spirit Temple first lol. So ya OoT left me with fond memories...but it also scared me as a child so I think more fond memories of OoA and OoS.

ALttP, I borrowed from my aunt and me and my sister would play it all the time until we had to return it, a friend loaned it to me (along with Mario RPG and Super Metroid) back in like 5th grade and here it is over 10 years later and I still have them

Ocarina of Time, also the first video game I ever played.

LttP. Back when LttP was old, and OoT was around the corner. I remember when I used to throw the controller at the wall in frustration from Death Mountain! But my true Zelda experience came when I played MM.


...good times, good times.

I love MM!, I remember my parents renting it when I had my tonsels out. I loved the game so much, I could never buy it though, until like 2 years later when my Mom got it for me used, I was so happy lol, But i only beat it a little over a year ago. I just didnt have the patience or time to get through the Great Bay Temple.

[Shujinco2]

ALTTP. Still my favorite.

[Java]

Probably Ocarina of Time.
I would never do anything though. I would just play to mess around in the forest.
The farthest I would ever go was into that creepy tree.

[Triforceman22]

The first Zelda.
I'm hardcore. XD

Then ALTTP then OoT then MM... XD

[Friendly Hostile]

The Legend of Zelda.

[Neerb]

Ocarina of Time was the first one I played, but I only played it whenever I went to my cousin's house; the first one I owned was Wind Waker.

[Redmoon]

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening when I was 7 or 8.

[Nancysing]

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past & Four Swords. (I haven't played any others.)
I've had it since middle school, for my GBA: SP, and I still can't beat it!

[PsychoYoshi]

Ocarina of Time was the first one that I distinctly remember, though I might have played A Link to the Past very briefly when I was very young.

[THEEVILSPERKY]

I MAY have played the original first but I don't remember.  If it wasn't the NES one then it would definitely have to have been LTTP which I hold very fond memories of.  What an amazing game.

I think it was A Link to the Past. Took me forever to beat that. I wonder why, too. It doesn't seem very hard anymore.
