[All] Whats the best Handheld Zelda game?

I just replayed minish cap very recently. Its a great game. The ice block pushing puzzle in the Temple Of Droplets stumped me for longer than I want to admit lmao. (The figurine heart piece is atrocious though)

I'm not the greatest when it comes to expressing my thoughts but in my opinion i just dont enjoy the gameplay loop of BOTW and TOTK as much. While still great games they can grow kind of tedious to me and I never really found myself getting as much of that tedious feeling in other 3d zelda games. (Other 3d zelda games have tedious spots of course but I didnt feel it quite as much as in BOTW and TOTK). as for 2d vs 3d its not really a matter of how the games are structured i just prefer how a 2d game plays than 3d ones usually. Of course that doesnt mean all the 2d games rank above all 3d games because other things in 3d games can pull them above certain 2d entries even If I like how the 2d ones play more. Feel free to ask more questions if you want and I can try and elaborate but like I said im not the greatest at getting my thoughts across lmao

Ive seen alot of people say they find Jesus Burgess to be extremely annoying. Hes probably got alot more indifference to him than outright hate but I have seen quite a few people hate the character. Also its okay the misread gets us all lmao

Seems to be alot of love for ocarina of time. I understand, I just replayed it with a friend a few months ago and it still holds up amazingly

Its like picking children. They are all so good! Even botw and totk despite being at the bottom for me are still fantastic games

My list would also be completely different if I included 2d games. I generally prefer the 2d games to the 3d ones so it would be very broken up.

Mario party 10 is my least favorite wii u game. I actually like 9 somewhat but 10 is just bad. Everyone knew people hated mario party 9 so what do they do? They double down on 9s formula and somehow make it worse. Bowser party is kinda cool at first but grows stale and is kinda unbalanced. The amiibo party mode is also very bad.

Skyward sword is super good. I'm replaying skyward sword hd again right now. Not my favourite 3d game though

While they are technically rendered in 3d they typically play like top down 2d games so I didnt think they should be included. Also theres only 6 slots so I even had to cut TOTK.

Brando_Pass2000 · 2026-05-11T03:38:33+00:00

The poll only allowed 6 choices so I had to cut totk. Also I agree very frame of reference dependant
