We look back at The Legend of Zelda's legacy, from its NES origins to Phantom Hourglass.

2. The Legend of Zelda: A Link To the Past (SNES, 1992)

A Link To the Past reintroduced the overhead adventure dynamic that the original Zelda is known for. The game changes between two types of worlds -- Light and Dark -- as Link continues on his quest to stop Ganondorf. The game became an instant hit on the SNES, and ranks highly on our recent Top 25 SNES Games of All Time article. You can download the game now for 800 points through the Wii's Virtual Console service.

I can't believe Majora's Mask wasn't on the list. :| It's great and you "highly recommend" it too. 1. A Link to the Past, 2. Twilight Princess, and guess Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker are cool too, just haven't played them.

I have nothing against the Zelda series, and I'm sure SOMEONE will send me a virus e-mail for saying this but, you really have to question whether or not RPGs
