When NES Ganon is invisible he still moves around (in a sort of figure 8 pattern) and deals contact damage, which does twice as much damage as the beams he shoots. So really hes still about bulk. And the idea of him being mindless is a retcon based on timeline placement later on, that wasnt what they had in mind at the time they made it.

You know, these are good points, and they probably should knock Ganon up a few ranks... but he's still pretty lame to me. He's definitely got the most interesting fight I can think of in an NES game, but that's all LoZ Ganon has going for him. I just don't think he looks at all cool visually, is the issue, and he's completely embarrassed by OoT's introduction of Ganondorf, who does everything Ganon does, but better.
