(7)The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess vs (10)Skies of Arcadia 2015

Ulti's Analysis
This match was very predictable and barely worth talking about in its own right, though in looking at it, it struck me as familiar...

Twilight Princess = Wind Waker seems like a real enough comparison to me, and the match would be very hard to pick. It also ended any talk of a potential Twilight Princess > Mario 64 upset (which was fueled by Link > Mario in the Nintendo hierarchy causing SFF), because no one in their right mind would pick Wind Waker to beat Mario 64. You need the full armada to beat that game, and Twilight Princess simply doesn't have it.

It does have a weird amount of respect though, which I suppose is understandable because you get Adult Link for the entire game and followed the graphical abomination that was Wind Waker. People seem to like the long tutorial, while I'm all about the dungeon-hopping that begins with the Arbiter's Grounds. There's definitely a disconnect between old-school gamer and new-school with that preference though, and we'll just never agree.

It actually floors me that transience has only played Wind Waker among the 3D Zeldas, and it turned him off from the other 3D games. I can see why given Wind Waker is trash, but at least play Ocarina. In the same arena, I really should get around to playing Skies of Arcadia. If KP recommends it, it's guaranteed to be good!
