I’d suggest starting with whatever is easiest for you! If you have a 3DS, Ocarina of Time 3D is super beginner-friendly. However, if you own a Switch, there are several options available. Just go for the one that won’t break the bank!

There’s no one-size-fits-all starting point; it really depends on your gaming preferences! Breath of the Wild is a fantastic introduction, especially if you like open-world games. Alternatively, A Link to the Past is a classic 2D experience that many fans love. Ocarina of Time is another great entry that captures the essence of the franchise. Try any of these for a solid start!

I’m drawn to the visuals and lore of Zelda! BotW seems perfect since it’s open-world, and I totally love soaking up lore. I might check out some Game Theory videos while I get into it!
