The most underrated Zelda game?
Probably.
I liked it but I think people hated it because it had less content that the ones on the GB, but overall it was a good game.
I liked it quite a lot, being able to go minish and talk to the minish people was really interesting.
I still never fused all my kin stones.
It was alright, better than Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, but seriously fuck those Kinstones.
I've never known anyone to not like Minish Cap. Most underrated is SS since there are so many scrubs who can't control their flailing arms well enough to move up/down and side to side.
Gameboy Zeldas generally are
No, it's the worst one in the series.
Bit easy and short, but great.

It really lacked any sense of urgency throughout.
>>257881216
so do all of them?
>>257881772
>What is Majora's Mask
>>257881054
It's my favourite too.
Good choice on OST too.
I didn't like the area in general, but the music was amazing.
It's weird, I went back to play it since I haven't played it since I was a kid and I fucking couldn't do half the god damn puzzles I worked out as a kid. Looking back at my old save I had everything so I must've had some severe autism I grew out off to find everything.
>>257881929
That's the only one you are ever on a time limit in, though. Every other game in the series the only danger is dying in combat/hazards and there's no punishment for that.
>no more 2D Zeldas
>>257881054
I agree for the most part except for
>>Awesome dungeons
Nope.
Don't think so, it was the best game on the game boy advance
>>257880501
bad ending made me feel bad
>>257880713

beyond retarded.

shitty entry, the coolest thing about the game were the three dragons
>>257880501
I love everything about this game. It's always been a contender for my favorite Zelda game, but I can never make up my mind.
>yfw the best Zelda games were made by Capcom.
>>257880501
Oracles are the most underrated
>>257880501
That's not Link's Awakening OP
Are the Oracle games underrated still, or do you think they've gotten the love they deserve at this point?
>>257886692
I think they're still underrated. They're actually some of the best 2-D Zeldas, and beat the shit out of the original and LttP, but they will never get that kind of recognition, just because they're a handheld game.
nigga it's my favorite Zelda game
>>257885776
I thought the ending was fine.....
Standard Zelda stuff really.
So why did Skyward Sword shit on the Minish Cap lore?
>only two Oracles can get houses
>>257880713
No, you retard. The controls aren't the reason people hate it.
>>257880501
this is the one that got me into zelda. of course I like it
Why isnt it on3ds eshop yet?
Oracle games are.
>>257882394
the beginning of Link between worlds punished you for dying be taking back all your rented items.
Of course once you bought them that wasn't a problem.
>>257887807
the Minish Cap was the oldest Zelda, Ezlo being the first time Link had caps but SS crapped all over that
>>257888785
That's not a special game over like MM tho
the plot made no sense
>>257885776
The ending was pretty good.
>>257887268
>>257890998
I think >>257885776 meant the "Vaati Wins" ending, not the normal ending.
>>257886692
Some of the Oracles games dungeons are just a pain in the fucking ass.
>>257891742
I'm not following
>>257892094
He said the "bad ending", aka the one you get if you fail to reach Vaati on time.
It's more of a non-standard Game Over than an ending, but it's still quite depressing considering the overall tone of the game.
>>257891742
what's that ending?
>>257892659
The timer is scripted, though. It doesn't actually run out.
>>257892659
what happens if you fail....?
>>257892804
The first two bell chimes are scripted, but the third one is timed. If you take too long to defeat the Darknuts, this happens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ4C_V3m_bs
>>257892661
>>257893787
Vaati steals all the Light Force from Zelda, and becomes as powerful as a god. It's also implied that Zelda is killed/forever a statue.
>>257893975
you have the Four Sword at that point, so you can change Zelda back to normal. She stays a statue in the bad ending because Link wouldn't be able to beat Vaati to get to her
>>257893975
wow, had no idea
>>257886932
good
Phantom hourglass was alright and spirit tracks is much better, I think they are both underrated
>>257892661
Vaati becomes all powerful and you won't be able to beat him.
Ages or Seasons?
>>257894698
This. I don't liked Phantom Hourglass, but Spirit Tracks is underrated as shit
>>257894230
Not sure the Four Sword would do the trick. Ezlo says that there's a high chance Zelda won't survive the ceremony, and Vaati says that she will be nothing but "cold and dead stone" once the bell chimes for a third time. She might not die, but the fact that you get a Game Over implies that yes, she died.
Underrated? What? I thought this game was considered one of the best on the GBA.
Spirit Tracks, Phantom Hourglass, Four Swords Adventures and the Oracle games are the ones the attention.
>>257886519
Link's Awakening is not underrated. At least not in /v/, where it's regarded as one of the best in the series.
>>257895850
see >>257894842
That's the reason for the game over.
>>257895850
she was already stone, though, Vaati is just saying you won't get the chance to change her back
>>257895850
She is turned to stone at the start of the game, not the end.
When I was young, my parents never really let me or my brother play or own video games. I would play SNES at my neighbors and N64 at my friends house, but I never had games of my own. Eventually, I saved up my own money and bought a GBA around when this game came out. I only had enough for the system, and the guy asked if I already had games for it. I said no and he ended up giving me Minish Cap for free. It's one of my favorite games of all time because of all the fun I had with it as a kid. I still love it.Ive completed everything in the game except for 1 heart piece
>>257880501
More like the first bad Zelda game.
>>257893975
dark
>>257880501
Nope. Most underrated Zelda would be OoT.
Minish Cap felt too short and small. And the overworld had the same problem as Oracle of Ages - it felt more like an open-air dungeon then anything. Too small, and too fulls of puzzles and stuff. The dungeons are what should be highly complex and plotted, the overworld should be relatively open and inter-connected.
In practice the game itself looked nice, but it was still based around the WW look, and the promo art was definitely WW style, and I'll be honest, I hate the WW style so much that it still bothered me on sheer principle. I wish it had stuck with the Oracle style art direction, I liked that.
Also, getting all the Kinstones is just needlessly difficult.
>>257880501
I think the most underrated game is Spirit Tracks since people are deluded enough to call it a flat out bad game
>>257898306
It's worse than PH, so yeah, I'd call it a bad game.
>>257898763
>Better music
>Better dungeons
>better controls
>Better items
>no temple of the ocean king
>Trains are cooler than boats
>>257898113
>short and small
Not to rag on your opinion, but I see what you did there.
>>257893975
>Zelda game
>Zelda dying
Try again. They have a mandate on that never happening.
>>257896553
>>257896747
I know. But it's not being turned into stone what kills her, it's having her Light Force extracted, which Vaati only tries to do that at the end of the game. The sword works on the petrified soldiers because they never underwent the ceremony.
>>257899712
Again, it's Ezlo the one who says that she will probably die if Vaati completes the ceremony.
>>257898895
>trains
>cooler than boats
Landlubber detected.
>>257901474
isn't he taking her life force?
>>257899712
Well she isn't dead, she's petrified. It's reversible.

>emulate
Not even mad
>>257902161
Why are the Toon Zeldas always so damn lewd?
>>257895850
The game over is for Vaati becoming a god
>>257893975
what's happening at the end of the video?
Am I the only one who thinks Vaati is kind of a stupid villain? He's got the cliche "MUH POWER" thing going on, but he flows over into terrible because he's also a dirty old man wh0o wants to fuck Zelda. Same reason that Cia's an awful villain, bad guys who are evil because they're horny are retarded.Seriously, why are all the purple Zelda villains so shit?
>>257904261
>wants to fuck Zelda
What are you on about? He's also not "old", he's only young.
>>257904261
are you talking about a different game?
>>257904261
He doesn't lust after Zelda in The Minish Cap, he just wants her magic power.
But yeah, he is a bit dumb. He sees right from the start that Zelda has a mysterious light power, but he doesn't make a connection between that and the Light Force until it's spelled out to him at the end of the game.
>>257905981
one of the only Zelda villains to "win" in one of the endings and straight up win in another
>>257907276
But Ganon has a whole timeline devoted to him winning.
>>257907614
we never see it
