I don't know. It wasn't really a conscious decision. I stopped in between the Master Sword and the desert thingy. I think I just got too tired of the endless number of stupid things to collect and just stopped playing. Before I knew it, I was on a really big Mario kick and was playing my NES while my Wii collected dust (that thing collects dust faster than any console I've ever seen before... and because of the smooth white surface, it sticks horribly).
