I have such fond memories of playing this with my brothers when I was younger. The roster, stage variety, and side content are all so nostalgic for me, and even playing this while I am older and more experience with Smash, this game still has a nice edge to it that Ultimate just doesn't have. I still think Ultimate is a better Smash game, but wow this game comes so close to 5 stars.

In terms of old JRPGS, this one is my favorite. It is often compared to Final Fantasy VII for obvious reasons, and I mostly prefer this game to FFVII in every way. I love the 2D sprites on the 3D backgrounds, the story is amazing, and gameplay is much more engaging for me personally, and while the 2nd disc was a little rushed, it was still a magnificent conclusion to this excellent game. It did not age super gracefully, but I think it still deserves 4 1/2 stars.
Used to think this was my least favorite 3D Zelda game, but I replayed it recently and it drastically changed my opinion. This is an amazing Zelda game, with the biggest problem being it's mostly empty areas. Otherwise, the dungeons and characters offer some of the series' best, and the darker tone is a nice change of pace for the series.
