These are the 4 I have played and beaten. Zelda II is by far my favorite--the SNES and N64 games didn't excite me much at all (had I played the SNES game as a kid, I probably would have liked it).
Own - Beaten = *
Zelda 1 (NES) * (first quest only)
Zelda 2 (NES)
Zelda 2 (FDS)
Zelda 3 (SNES) *
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
Zelda Collection (GC)
Zelda 1 Animal crossing (NES)
Doboutso no Mori + (Zelda 1 FDS)
Wind Waker (Still playing)
Link's Awakening *
Link's awakening DX
Never could get into the first two games - I think you had to be there - but I enjoy some of the rest. I think the only one I still own that I've beaten is Twilight Princess, but I've also beaten:
Link's Awakening
A Link to the Past
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
and maybe Phantom Hourglass... Don't quite remember, I may have gotten bored on the last dungeon and moved on.
I also have Wind Waker, which I loved up until the point at the end of the game where it makes you go all around the damn map fishing for random crap just to make the game longer, which is the worst piece of game design I've ever seen in a Zelda game (including Spirit Tracks, which I'll get to in a sec). I quit and never looked back. Whatever, I'd basically beat the game at that point anyway.
I used to have Four Swords Adventure, which was fun, but it didn't play much like a traditional Zelda game so when I broke up with my ex, who was the big fan of it, I got rid of it.
At one point I had one of the Oracle games, but to be honest I didn't like it at all. The level design was confusing and the dual world bit was terrible, especially when compared to LttP.
I absolutely loathed the second DS game and gave up almost immediately. Is that Spirit Tracks? I hate babysitting games so much. I just want to play the game, don't make me mess around trying to control a second character at the same time. At least it's better than Resident Evil 4, which ruined a perfectly good game by chaining you to an obnoxious uncontrollable dead weight with freaky monkey ears. I will never understand why a game with a central mechanic designed PURELY TO FRUSTRATE THE PLAYER was and remains so popular.
But I've gotten way off track. Basically I like Zelda games but I wish when they tried to deviate from the typical design of the series they'd do so in a way that focused on gameplay first.
The Legend of Zelda
The Legend of Zelda 2
Ocarina of Time
Twilight Princess
I have to say Zelda 2 is quickly becoming my favorite. I still love Ocarina of Time a bit more, but Zelda 2 just has a charm about it that the other games don't.
I have only ever beaten Ocarina of Time and Link's Awakening... because those are the only 2 of the entire series I actually like.
Major Zelda fan here. I've beaten and own:
The Legend of Zelda (FDS, NES) (first quest only)
Zelda II (VC)
A Link to the Past (VC)
Link's Awakening
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
Wind Waker
Twilight Princess (Wii)
While the Oracles are apparently very good games, I never really had the time or motivation to give them a legitimate try. I haven't actually tried the Four Swords series or recent handheld releases, but I'm fairly (perhaps inaccurately?) convinced I would hate all of them.

I agree. It's not my favourite Zelda game, but Zelda II just has the aura of being an unappreciated and yet awesome game about it.
I think Phantom Hourglass at least is worth a try. The Four Swords series and Spirit Tracks don't play that much like normal Zelda games (in my opinion), but Phantom Hourglass is sort of like a combination of Wind Waker and Link's Awakening, only shorter and not as impressive as those games.
My first zelda game that I played and beat was Ocarina of Time. I later played and beat Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, 4 swords adventures, and Twilight Princess. I played zelda 1, 2, and 3, but didn't beat them.... yet, I plan to when my friends and I celebrate the 25th anniversary of the legend of zelda ;D

My favorite Zelda games are Link's Awakening DX and Wind Waker.
ya windwaker is one of my favorites it was the only one i had besides phantom hourglass at the time so i was used to the graphics and if you ask me they arent so bad, like really why do they get so much shit just shut up and play the game people its about the game not the graphics
I love the graphics in Wind Waker, they're among my favorites ever for the series (along with the original Link's Awakening - I have a soft spot for that game since it was my first Zelda and my first Game Boy game). Everything in the game looks gorgeous. The problem is the monotony of the damn ocean. There's a reason previous open world games set in water-soaked worlds (Mega Man Legends 1+2 are such great games) didn't make you pilot the freaking boat from port to port: it's really, really boring. The game managed to be pretty good despite that because it's, well, Zelda; but it still suffered immensely.
Luckily they fixed it in Twilight Princess and everything was good again. Now we'll see what happens with the next Zelda game at E3, probably a sequel to TP.
yes i hated the ocean but i did like the fact that you could go to any island at anytime, and BTW i love the graphics of when the bombs blow up in windwaker
Definitely! I think I spent like half an hour just setting bombs and watching them blow up when I first got the chance.
