Just when I thought Zelda lost it's luster for me I go and play Skyward Sword and get enchanted all over again. Then I come back and look at this game and remember how enchanting it was. I don't care what anyone says about the visuals they are fantastic! Man gamecube was so underrated. If someone asked me If I wanted a PS2 or gamecube. No competition it would be a gamecube along with Wind Waker, Sunshine, Metroid Prime 1 & 2, Melee, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, Pikmins..Eh not enough room..
My personal favorite Zelda game. I remember people hating on Wind Waker either for its art style or for the tedious sailing, and every single one of them were declaring that Twilight Princess was going to be miles better... The funny thing is, when they realized how much of a disappointment Twilight Princess was, and replayed Wind Waker several years later, they began to appreciate how much of a good game Wind Waker really and actually is.
@DanielLadson yup i totally agree i aked a few people do you perfer gameplay to graphics you would be surprised how many of each, as for me i like that he looks soooo realistic but if the game is beaten in just a few hours oh well but damn he looks good
@afatsweatyman I find Gerudo Valley to be extremely over-rated, It's still great stuff don't get me wrong, but I feel people give it a little too much praise.
Happy 8th anniversary, Wind Waker. I'm glad I got and beat WW by the time it came out. It has an outstanding and original soundtrack. My older cousin always teased me because I played this game. "You're too old to play this shit!". Shut up! This was one of the best games of 2003. Agreed?

Ocarina of Time, Link to the Past, Twilight Princess, and Majora's Mask were all better. Still an awesome game, this is my favorite song from the game other than when you got attacked at sea. But, that's not saying too much.
@EvilApple567 I agree with all except Majora's mask. That game was terrible, boring, and way too overrated. If it didn't have the same graphics engine as OOT it wouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. And I love Zelda games, just not Majoras mask.
@charger619c I just didn't like the length of it. It was too short for sure. Beat it about 8 hrs.
I just played Majora's Mask about March 2010 off the Wii Virtual Console, hesitated for a couple months before playing it... but MAN I LOVED IT! I've beat it about 20 times since then lol
@philiptrekie If you count those, you'll have to include the Tingle games. I had Rosy Rupeeland once, and it was the most tedious game I've ever played. All you did was walk round and look for things. There wasn't even any background music! Oh, and having money as your health coupled with the fact that no-one talks to you unless you pay them, which means talking to people hurts you. Bullshit.
@philiptrekie I've actually beaten all three of them, though it was the most unrewarding Zelda experience ever. Let us just say that curiosity is a dangerous thing, especially in gaming. I can sum them up in two words: IT BURNS!
@philiptrekie I've actually beaten all three of them, though I daresay it was the most unrewarding Zelda experience ever. Curiosity is a rather dangerous thing in the gaming world. I can sum them up in two words: IT BURNS!
@charger619c You're saying MM is overrated? It's one of the most underrated games, if anything. As for my opinion, I really like it, however, the 3-day thing really put me off. What I most like about zelda games is that you can explore as much as you want, but in MM, if you do that then you just have to start over because you don't have forever.
@wwTheTrueWarioww Lol yes having do restart a temple or just quests in general because you didn't make the time limit and then had to go back and technically lose all progress was BS imo even if it was intentional. Also how you actually save your game is one of the most retarded way to save I've ever heard of in my life. You'd think those flaws would actually break the game, but it really doesn't somehow. Guess there can never be a generally accepted Nintendo-made "bad" Zelda. :)
@wwTheTrueWarioww I don't really htink it's that overrated anymore because I hear so many people saying it'stheir favorite. OoT will always be by far my favorite with WW in second, but MM is great. My problem had basically nothing to do with the three day sytem. It was more that it was just too short of a game and I didn't like how pretty much every npc was the same as OoT with a different name.
Wind Waker has the most beauty musics and the grafic style is awesome, i don`t understand people ho dislike this game because of it, The Skyward Sword will return this style and i will buy it for sure!
yeah i thought this sounds familiar, and i was right. im hearing the music when i opened the snesgx channel on the wii. then i was like "aint this zelda?"
I prefer Wind Waker over Twilight Princess, 'cause WW surprised me in a positive way. When it was announced, I said: "WTF! A Zelda game can't look like that". But when I got it in 2003, I just loved its stunning, non-realistic, but beautiful graphics, and the sea feature. Too bad it was too short, though.
On the other hand, I expected much more from TP. It's a great game, but it brought no innovation at all. It's just an Oot wannabe.
let me just make this clear... graphics aren't everything in games. In fact, to make a good game doesn't necessarily mean that you have to have HD and realistic graphics all the time! Wind waker is a prime example to what i just said there
This game was GREAT! Day I Purchased I was little but wining because I the step from OoT to the TOON style was big. But def a GREAT game with an unique style!
and to all of you WW haters, it's definitely a different style of gameplay, but i thought the story was different as well. this game got me a lot more emotionally attached in ways i didnt find in the other LoZ games. just my 2 cents..
@briroths Agreed. Wind Waker actually showed Link's emotions and thoughts, you could see when he was happy, you could see when he was sad. It felt like he wasn't a robot anymore, like other games.
Wind Waker has always been, for me, the best LoZ game. For all the excellence that is the rest of the LoZ, WW and it's atmosphere stand out slightly to me among the other games of the series, and all of gaming as a whole, as something I've failed to find most anywhere else.
this is my favorite Zelda game (after OoT that is). But still it is an amazing game with beautiful graphics, a stunning soundtrack and an engaging story. I'd be willing to play it at any hour of any day till the end of time!
I got into a zelda mood one time and was like why not pla windwaker...5 minutes later I wass balling my eyes out watching the beginning credit/intro......I was just thinking of memories...mhmhmhmh I love this game.
Awesome composition... I agree with the ones that consider it one of the best (if not THE ONE) songs made for a Zelda game. Koji Kondo and Staff, thanks for this joy.
@mirrorpiece i don't think cartoonish, zelda artwork always attempted to reach matureness, and games too, i prefer thinking that way, because if so, wind waker would be the game who introduced this style, no matter if it is tp graphics or whatever, wind waker will always be beautiful
Upon this games release I was turned off by the cell animation and didn't consider it canon. Now with all the praise I've seen I'm really becoming interested in it.
@jwild611 I actually thought the cel-shading was a big part of the best part of the game: its mood. This is and will (hopefully not :P) be my favorite Zelda game for a long time :)
@jwild611 Believe me, even though the Cell-Shading can be pretty annoying for those of us that have grown attached to the old-style graphics, the game itself is extremely good, both gameplay and storywise. I would go for it. I got it at a rip-off price, but would gladly pay double that price knowing how good the thing is.
@Ice0ace u cant compare, but i agree that i have so many good memories with wind waker, it was a definately better game than twilight princess... but Ocarina of time started it all so we still gotta respect it :P
@JonnyJinx04 well technically not, but it got the highest rating on every game review sites compared to all its predecessors. Atleast for my generation that is born at the end of 80s or start of the 90s did not grow up with 8 bit, someone had super nintendo, but i think most had nintendo 64 and playstation, and the first game that introduced me to the zelda world was ocarina of time hehe. But i guess the older guys got more experience with the series than me.
@daviaker I like to think A Link to the Past "started" Zelda as we know it. I mean, ALttP basically gave us a lot of the famous Zelda themes (Zelda's lullaby, Ganon's theme, Hyrule Castle) and of course, started off the sort of plot progression we see in most Zelda games (3 things to collect, get Master Sword, collect some more stuff).
But I see what you mean. OoT was definitely very innovative and indeed, no other Zelda game has emulated its critical success.
actually yes this game was friggen awesome exept some borin parts which every videos game have. but still this game is imho the 2 best of zelda... it cant be ranked superior than Oot just cant
I found it quite annoying how people were angry about the graphics in this game. I mean what kind of person would hate a game because of it's visuals? Personally I think graphics is only a small part of a good game.
On gameplay, this game doesn't score too high, but it's still great. However, what makes this game so superb is the fact that it has some of the best music in a zelda game yet, and I wish they were able to bring that over to some of the other zelda games. Even phantom hourglass and spirit tracks didn't have the same great feel as this, even though the style and all that was based on Wind Waker. Anyways, thanks for the upload.
A sad moment...I actually saw the first pics of this game and I did the unthinkable...I doubted Shigeru! -_- How deeply humbled I felt after I'd played the game
GOMENNASAI -_-
As retribution, I will slay 8 versions of Ganon who have all disliked this vid
Hahehehe. The way that the guitar plays so subtly with the flute reminds me of my home... You'd hear people playing songs like this in the market when you went into Cartajena.
Wind Waker had a big impact on me, as far as Zelda gaming goes, not sure about you guys. I was mind-blown by all the different character interaction, especially the enemy AI. The music was very lively and enjoyable, the cel-shaded graphic style was something different for a Zelda game, and overall, I thought the story was good and well played out. I can see why people might not have liked it, though. It was very cartoony, and most Zelda gamers had a hard time adapting to the new style.
I love how character-focused this game is. Nintendo takes the time to develop a good story and makes you care about the characters. Not to mention some of the cutscenes are hilarious.
Fantastic theme. And of course this list couldn't be ranked. Think about this: the list has been going for over 2 years. If he likes music from a game released since he started it or discovers an older song, he couldn't rank it properly. Like, what if he found a new number one, two, three or any other number he has already posted? Any new song would have to be by default his 600-something favorite at this point.
@isortaforgot whats funny about it...? just 'cause Medli isn't real, doesn't mean I can't help but have feeling for her..... would u think its funny if u had feelings for a fictional game charater...?
@Bunearylover7 welcome to being an otaku in japan, where most women are out for money, and not love.
great soundtrack, though i didnt think WW was that great of a zelda game, it was way too easy, and much more tedious than i would like. OoT is still the best in my opinion then its LA and OoS/OoA with TP after that, with LttP, then MM, i would put WW under MM. MM was ruined because of the time limit, but then the overworld theme brought back memories.
@d3nyd A link to the past, ocarina of time and majora's mask. the rest are either not as good and/or an attempt to copy one of the 3 I mentioned (twilight princess).
well...that means that windfall is better than dragonroost for him but not with such a big difference in the rank or that is NOT FOR TRUTH RANKED??(cause that would be stupid)
True, but at the same time, you can't believe everything you hear.
He did say the Wild Arms music brought him into the world of VGM, so he uploaded a Wild Arms song at #1. Within the first 25 uploads, there are 3 Wild Arms songs.
As humans, we really can't be unbiased, but he's tried his hardest to spread out the songs.
but the ocean king temple was a bitch. i hope they don't use it anymore. also, we don't know if spirit tracks is related, it just uses the same style. minish cap used the same style, but was unrelated.
but So far, Spirit Tracks uses Phantoms, which where used in PH, Spirit Tracks is probably related since Nintendo usually wouldn't dump us without a end to that story.
nah, my favorite theme from this game is the theme from Jalhalla's fight, seriously fast and slihtly creepy as well. Still, this theme is amazing as well.
THERE IT IS, glad to see this song in the Best VGM collection, its very nice. Personally, my favorites are easily any zelda and final fantasy songs, best music in those games in my opinion
Soundtracks today have a tendency to rely too much on orchestration and end up having completely uninteresting basic melodies, but this song was actually inspiring and beautiful.
wait, at 00:15 is Japanese, at 00:32 it's English...?

I found it quite annoying how people were angry about the graphics in this game. I mean what kind of person would hate a game because of it's visuals? Personally I think graphics is only a small part of a good game.

On gameplay, this game doesn't score too high, but it's still great. However, what makes this game so superb is the fact that it has some of the best music in a zelda game yet, and I wish they were able to bring that over to some of the other zelda games. Even phantom hourglass and spirit tracks didn't have the same great feel as this, even though the style and all that was based on Wind Waker. Anyways, thanks for the upload.

Wind Waker had a big impact on me, as far as Zelda gaming goes, not sure about you guys. I was mind-blown by all the different character interaction, especially the enemy AI. The music was very lively and enjoyable, the cel-shaded graphic style was something different for a Zelda game, and overall, I thought the story was good and well played out. I can see why people might not have liked it, though. It was very cartoony, and most Zelda gamers had a hard time adapting to the new style.

I love how character-focused this game is. Nintendo takes the time to develop a good story and makes you care about the characters. Not to mention some of the cutscenes are hilarious.

Fantastic theme. And of course this list couldn't be ranked. Think about this: the list has been going for over 2 years. If he likes music from a game released since he started it or discovers an older song, he couldn't rank it properly. Like, what if he found a new number one, two, three or any other number he has already posted? Any new song would have to be by default his 600-something favorite at this point.

@Bunearylover7 welcome to being an otaku in japan, where most women are out for money, and not love.
great soundtrack, though i didnt think WW was that great of a zelda game, it was way too easy, and much more tedious than i would like. OoT is still the best in my opinion then its LA and OoS/OoA with TP after that, with LttP, then MM, i would put WW under MM. MM was ruined because of the time limit, but then the overworld theme brought back memories.

True, but at the same time, you can't believe everything you hear.
He did say the Wild Arms music brought him into the world of VGM, so he uploaded a Wild Arms song at #1. Within the first 25 uploads, there are 3 Wild Arms songs.
As humans, we really can't be unbiased, but he's tried his hardest to spread out the songs.

Wind Waker was the Absolute best Zelda game in my book. I loved the cel-based design.
*SPOILER*
Ganon was fairly easy,
but Puppet Ganon was Hard.
The ending was pure genious!
Plus, there are two sequals so far.
But it tickes me off that people think Nintendo is running out of ideas when there is a train on Spirit Tracks *sequal*.
Nintendo is giving us a new idea, something other than a boat.
Phantom Hourglass *sequal* was a very easy Zelda game.
BluexSaphire 2 years ago 6
but the ocean king temple was a bitch. i hope they don't use it anymore. also, we don't know if spirit tracks is related, it just uses the same style. minish cap used the same style, but was unrelated.
luvtehcomix 2 years ago
I totally agree on the Ocean King Temple,
but So far, Spirit Tracks uses Phantoms, which where used in PH, Spirit Tracks is probably related since Nintendo usually wouldn't dump us without a end to that story.
BluexSaphire 2 years ago
oh right, forgot about the phantoms. still, it could just be the same timeline, not related. or it's another alternate dimension story (hope not.)

You could be right.
