At least the damn things are rechargeable!
I sometimes wonder about pushing myself to play through the original Zelda, as I really loved the later games (Awakening, Ocarina, Twilight), but then again I tried playing through even one of the Oracle games and got quite bored with it. And replaying Minish recently, as soon as I picked up the gust jar and remembered you have to go round hoovering up the dust in room after room looking for hidden trapdoors, I realised I wasn't going to pick it up again. I think I can name more games in that series with annoyances that I wouldn't want to play again, than ones I've revisited. Even Skyward Sword, for all its amazing visual moments, was frustrating in the motion-plus controls simply didn't work as promised (the sword slash actions were faked, and the bow aiming always drifted way off, compared to the pin-point camera/cursor accuracy of the previous game).
Still looking for a cheap Wii U or some way to play
Breath of the Wild. Not sure I want to buy a Switch for one game.
