Like Lord Altmith said, it's hard to pick a favorite zelda because they're all so different in tone and atnosphere, but the gameplay is usually pretty similar. What it comes down to is more nostalgia and taste than really picking an objective best. A better question would be: most underrated zelda, which undoubtedly goes to Spirit Tracks. It's a very direct, snappy game, even by Zelda standards, mostly due to the railroad overworld, but there's enough variety to keep the game moving until the end. It's got the secind best characterization of Zelda i've seen (though i haven't played some of the bigger titles yet, like Twilight Princess), second only to Tetra from Wind Waker. Gameplaywise, you have most the classic ideas in Spirit Tracks but remixed to accomodate for controlling two characters for lkke half the game. And the soundtrack goes hard! Trains motifs are [i]everywhere[/i] in this soundtrack, and it's easily one of the better osts in the franchise. Best Zelda's lullaby, from what i've heard so far.
