Holy *&^%... four Zelda games on one??? A mint copy to top it off??? 480p??? How could this go wrong? Well. That depends. I'm a Zelda freak and I bought this because I have to own every Zelda title that I can play. I thought I'd be able to revisit Majora's Mask on this game but they rushed it out the door in such bad shape that it's not an enjoyable experience. The sound is off through the entire game and the saves don't work. They even warn you when you launch the game that you are going to have sound issues. I ended up ebaying an N64 and MM. Having working sound is better than a digitally remastered non-working copy. As far as the first two titles, I'd recommend getting a GBA and playing them on that if you want to. A warning about Zelda:II -- it's a hard game. I didn't like the controller feel either... didn't feel as authentic of an experience as it did when I played it on the GBA (both Zelda I and II) You could also play these games on the Wii's VC and have a fine time with it (Get Link to the Past as well). The great part of this collection is Ocerana of Time. It's remastered and looks incredible. However, you can also buy this as part of the Zelda: Master Quest disk for the GameCube which gives you a harder version of the game if you find yourself up for a challenge. In conclusion, this is a great game collection -- but it's not the most functional way to play any of the titles on it. Ocarina of Time is best played with The Master Quest disk, Zelda I&II on the GBA and Majora's Mask on the N64. Don't bother with the Wii VC N64 Zelda titles... you miss game functionality without the rumble because they use the rumble to let you know where some things are. Why punish yourself...
