The original LoZ was the greatest video game ever until the SNES came out. It is still one of my favorites all-time.

Zelda II is such a weird anomaly. It is so different than the others. As for advice, Downward Thrust is your friend.

A Link to the Past is probably the most perfect Zelda game. I feel like every non-3D Zelda after that point has been trying to live up to it. A Link Between Worlds came close.

The 3D entries are fun and I guess OoT has a special place in my heart but all the others are good too.
