OoT still the best Zelda game. Skyward Sword would be second for me.
I think this is where I stand.
I am having real trouble with Skyward Sword vs ALttP/CT for #3, 4, and 5 all time.
It is definitely better than Final Fantasy IX, so that goes from 5 to 6, and therefore everything else drops one spot.
I believe it is Megaman 3 that was #40, and has now dropped out of my top 40 because of this.
I think right now, today, I would go
OoT
FF VII
CT
ALttP
SkyS
Making the Zelda line go OoT, ALttP, SkyS. But honestly, right now my #2 to 5 is so amazingly close, that if I play one of them it is possible any of them can go all the way to 2, or drop to 5, they are virtually dead even, especially ALttP and CT.
Finally, I just want to say how much of a ride SkyS gave OoT. At one point it was close, and I mean DAMN CLOSE to doing it. If that last fetch quest of the game was not just a hair too long, SkyS would be the best game of all time, or at the very least 1 or 1A with OoT. Even with it being a little longer than I was hoping, it was still a Masterpiece. By far the best game on the Wii, almost assuredly the game of this decade, and a really good shot to be the best game for the rest of my life (IE game of the century). We'll see.
It took LoZ in a new direction, and unlike OoT which was legit flawless, it did have one or two very minor issues, but like OoT, more than likely the next 4 generations will all copy it to the degree that no game in the series can touch it, till it gets another reboot.
This was the best game in 15 years. (since everything else in the top 5 precedes OoT), and one of the best ever.
