This is such a great all-around Zelda game and isn't a huge time commitment either. It's very linear but there's plenty of random mini games and shops to explore. It also is a very special and unique Nintendo game and incorporates an early looking version of Kirby and has chain chomps from Mario. The art direction is "toy style" and it's incredibly polished. It's really one of those remakes where they didn't cut any corners.

I played the original to dead and loved the remake.

Easily my #2 of my favorite LoZ of all time.

Especially the music in this game is just so awesome. I still get goosebumps when I hear the end credits roll or ballad of the windfish. The 8 bit version just blew me away when I first heard it, it's so freaking awesome. The remake was fanatically done, even the end credits scene paid homage to the 8 bit version. Also imho the best version of the LoZ main theme still to this day

Also we see Link's true dream girl, Marin. The first girl in the series we see that showed interest in Link. My headcanon is that, when link ever will meet his demise, he will go and be with Marin forever. In seagull form or whatever they choose.

The music in the credits was unbelievable (and the music throughout of course)
