32 years later, and Nintendo still has yet to top this classic. It is still the best Zelda game they've made, and I really wish they would make more Zeldas that have this format. There was nothing wrong with it. Yes, they can still make the BOTW-type Zelda since people seem to like it, but I wish they would make more like this, too.
The story is good. The overworlds are fun to explore. The world-switching mechanism is fun. The combat is fun. Your items don't disappear on you after a few uses. The dungeons are not super short and are fun and varied. They reward you for exploring the overworld. There isn't a massive amount of dialogue.
It is still the prime example of a perfect Zelda game and I wish Nintendo would realize that.
