We also reckon that The Wind Waker is the best entry point in the series for new Zelda players. The lore in Wind Waker, especially the ending, makes it one of the most peculiar and insightful Zeldas. Princess Zelda still makes an appearance, though not in her usual form.
The Wind Waker‘s story is also one of the best in the franchise, as it features Link going on a journey to rescue his sister. Sailing the high sea was a magical experience, and stumbling across new islands always brought fresh delights. Only upstaged by Breath of the Wild in terms of exploration, The Wind Waker sent players across the Great Sea on the King of Red Lions boat. Regardless, the aesthetic wasn’t the only aspect that made The Wind Waker shine. We’re unsure why, though, as The Wind Waker is arguably the most visually stimulating entry in the entire series, especially the HD remake for Wii U.
Link’s first foray as one of the best GameCube games was met with some trepidation from fans due to its cartoon cel-shaded art style.
