How old?










How old were you?

Despite being a Nintendo child, for the most part, I didn't play Zelda until 2008, so I was 15. Or at least not in any meaningful/memorable capacity.

You'd think I'd have played one a lot earlier considering I liked playing as Link a lot in both Smash 64 and Melee

Not sure, but probably in the 6-8 range. I don't remember if my daycare had the original LoZ, but I think it did. Either way, I got Lttp when my parents bought me an SNES.

I may have tried some on a Gameboy but I think the first I actually played and owned was WindWaker...for like 5 hours before I realized I'm not a fan of Zelda games.

8, OoT just came out and it was both the most exciting and scariest thing I had ever experienced.

Started the first LoZ game at age 5. Beat it at age 6, beat the second quest later that year

If it was about babies we'd have universal maternal care. There would be no charge no matter how complex the delivery. But its not about babies, is it?

I think I was 9 when I played the original for the first time, but I may have been 10 - I got the NES for Christmas when I was 9, and I know I got Zelda during that first year of having one.

I had played the original before I knew how to read...so had to be like 5-6?
I figured out how to "unlock" Dungeon 5 all on my own as well as a few other things, too.

Anywhere from 5-7. My older cousin had Zelda and Zelda 2, and I'd play them occasionally (didn't buy my own copies until a couple years later). I enjoyed Zelda 1 a bit and can still deeply appreciate it for what it was, but my fandom didn't really take off until LttP.

I'm not sure if I was 5 or 6 when my parents bought a SNES and LttP. We had a NES before then, but I don't think we had LoZ (and I was probably only like 4 when they gave the console away to my cousins).
