A really good game franchise. Created by Nintendo, you play as Link, a Hylian, trying to save the princess named Zelda from Calamity Ganon. Particularly good games in this series are Skyward Sword, Breath of The Wild, and Link to The Past.
Human: Hey have you played The Legend of Zelda? Fire as hell if you ask me.
Hylian: I *am* The Legend of Zelda.

A video game made by Nintendo where there is a warrior named Link who is supposed to save Zelda. Hardest game to get through.

The worst video game series published by Nintendo. Unrealistic storyline involving an elf in a green skirt trying to save a princess from an evil wizard dude (generic storyline, bleh), who's really just saving her because it's a better excuse to do that than to flat out say he was stalking her. It's set in medieval times, because, honestly, I don't see any electric-powered devices, such as automobiles, lightbulbs, or modern-day machinery (they use huge wooden gears and horses to travel, 1600's maybe?) Also, it's really easy to become lost. In Hyrule Field in Ocarina of Time, it's SOOOO expansive that a casual gamer or just someone who really doesn't care to spend alot of time getting from Point A to Point B (me being the latter) wouldn't enjoy. AND if you make one tiny mistake, like missing a key item in the game, you're basically screwed. Oh, and video games are supposed to be fun. Playing a game with a stalker elf midget, a 1600's setting, a confusing as hell sense of direction, and a generic storyline is not fun. Plus, it's not MULTIPLAYER (minus Four Swords).
The Legend of Zelda is a horrible excuse of a video game series, and, honestly, I have no idea why it was ever created.

Legend of Zelda has got to be the best video game series known to Earth history. Especially Twilight Princess. What a fucking badass game.

With the classic Link character somehow be the bravest thing anyone has ever seen to combat against horribly frightening monsters with ease. And saving the beautiful Princess Zelda or other characters that had been captured.

Don't know why its called the Legend of Zelda.. it should be called the Legend of Link. Because Zelda does shit all in every series.
"We should think about the Legend of Zelda, that Link is the most courageous thing ever, in the history of Hyrule."

"Link will save us all!"
"Yes! Let us put all the world's hopes and expectations on his shoulders!"
"Yay!"

Poor Link..

One of the most successful video game series up to date. This game was created by Shigeru Miyamoto and was first released in 1987 by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).

The multiple games in the series consist of puzzles, variety of weapons & tools, battling of different creatures, Intense Boss Battles, a great storyline, great soundtracks, and of course traveling through different lands and dungeons.

There have been around 20 Zelda games released including re-releases on a different system. There has been at least one Zelda game released for every Nintendo console created.

The game features a Hero named Link (Protagonist), a princess name Zelda, the villain which varies, but most famously is Ganondorf (Antagonist), Epona (his horse), and multiple other characters which varies with each game. Besides Key characters there are also a number of different races in the games including Goron, Zora, Hylian, and Gerudo. Most of the Zelda games are set in, but not limited to, the land of Hyrule and generally have 8 dungeons (including the final boss dungeons).

In a nutshell this game is basically about saving Princess Zelda and/or getting the Triforce.

Another video game series created by Shigeru Miyamoto that appeals to a more mature, harder thinking crowd than Super Mario Brothers. Awesome in the fact that Link, the main character, as young as he is, explores and fights the monsters that are invading his homeland of Hyrule.
The Legend of Zelda Storyline:

Zelda: Save me Link!
Link: I will need to find a strategy guide first!

The best weight-loss solution ever.
I lost a lot of weight because I was so into Legend of Zelda that I forgot to eat for two days. When I finally did eat, it was just a cookie and water, and I planted my SKINNY self down to beat the water temple. Equally as effective with Sims 2.
