Bonus Write Up because dammit, I spent all this time articulating it.

1. Wii: Twilight Princess (November 19, 2006)
I could gush and gush and gush about this game. This was the very first Legend of Zelda game I ever owned. I stood outside for 3 hours in the freezing cold to own my areas first Wii and copy of LoZ Twilight Princess. Unfortunately for me, I had to wait for Christmas to get to play it. Meanwhile, my spoiled af cousin tried to jump out of a car on a highway because her mom couldnt find her a Wii with the game when she found out I had gotten one at the midnight release. She eventually got one with a guide book and made me read the damn guide to her while she played. I wanted nothing more than to finally play this game myself.
The time had finally arrived and I immediately hooked up the Wii (that I had to share with my younger brother) and began to play. No guide, just playing. I was in love. I just felt so immersed in this game immediately. It was dark and foreboding and you could just feel like shit was going down in Hyrule. The dungeons were fun, the double hook shot was amazing, albeit slow, and there was just so much to love for me. I loved collecting the bugs for Tabitha, I loved unlocking the portals and riding across Hyrule Field on Epona, I loved the characters and the dark art style, really I dont think there is anything I dont love about this game. This game is what started me on the journey into LoZ fandom, lead me to the collection I have today. When the HD edition came out, I enjoyed all the small things they added to it, like the secret fishing spot and the mini game with the rolling ball. I just have such fond memories of this game, playing it alongside my older brother who ended up with his own Wii to play on. Ive beaten this game on GCN, Wii and WiiU and I hope to one day get a port for the Switch. I really thought Id have more to say on a game I loved so much, but its definitely more difficult to do a write up on the good than the bad.
