I was the older brother in this scenario. The number of times my brother would ask me to stop at this island or that island. I wouldn't give up those memories for the world.

I didn't learn that the Rito Village theme incorporates this melody into it until years after I played Breath of the Wild (which was also my first Zelda game). Because of that, this song does an amazing job at feeling nostalgic despite the fact that I've never heard it's original context.

Give Wind Waker a try! It's a great game and holds up very well because of it's cel shaded art style. The remastered version takes away the tedium of sailing as well. It's a classic and every Zelda fan should give it a shot

Every single Zelda game has that “one” track most people associate with it. For wind waker, this song couldn’t be more fitting.

Milk Courier

depends what you grew up with Nintendo is definitely more common, But you still have to keep in mind Bethesda fans

Suntro

The scores were great but only a few songs stood out, mainly the title themes. Nintendo has more memorable pieces rather than filler ambiance tracks like ES & Fallout had.

that bassline though.

CapREX77

xuhiken That’s a first. Normally it’s the in-game versions that have more substance and detail, while the OST versions tend to get everything ripped out of them.

@miitube I have windewaker rom for JAP and USA. And neither of them had a baseline. Where exactly did you heard from?

Ongrong

@miitube I looked up both original and hd playthroughs and neither has it in game. What I said is on the zelda wiki as well.

Ongrong

3y↑1

To clear everything up. Neither the original nor the wii u port of the game has the bassline in game. It is only on the seperate official soundtrack of the gamecube version, and in super smash bros brawl.

Kyle Hill

@EtheRenard ♪ I read somewhere it was either International or Japan only that in game had it on either version of the game.

Don't get me wrong, I love Zelda game play, but my favorite thing about Zelda games is the MUSIC!

Gabby

6y↑1

Biff Danielson nah, I kinda liked the more melancholic empty music, I thought it fit well with links whole situation and helped the game stray away from "the Zelda formula". While the music isn't all that grand I kinda prefer the subtlety, letting the ambience of the many environments (footsteps, waterfalls, birds chirping, etc.) build the atmosphere.

It surprises me to read comments of people saying that this song brings them memories from "Brawl" =/... or Smooth McGroove introducing them to this song =/ ... Are we really that far? I mean an entire generation has really passed? Shit!! time goes fast. Anyway, yea kids this song brings me memories from 2003 when I first played the game (n.n) / ... as soon as I arrived the island this song caught me instantly it was magic.

Layne Staley I remember playing oracle of seasons (Off the store on the 3ds :p). It requires some thinking and I was so confused on the final boss...but I beat it. I didn't know it was a hard game..

malucart

@Layne Staley No, just harder than usual, in the sense it's hard to find your objective (eg right in the start, in Clock Town. I actually had to use a walkthrough to see that I had to play hide and seek with the Bombers and stuff)

And... four seasons? That's neither Four Swords or Oracle of Seasons. Should I play both then?

Oh, I get it. Play both at the same time. Well I don't disagree it will be hard

Zeldacrafter

Yeah but... i don't know, almost every Zelda has an awesome OST, and the first that come to my mind are M'sM, TWW and OOT. Those always were my favorites since I played them.
