I really need to start Windwaker. I bought it when we got the Wii 3 or 4 years ago, and I haven't even started it. I need to start it, THEN I need to finish it, THEN I will go buy a copy of Twilight Princess (and not start that for a couple of years). Which reminds me... I need to get my son to play Ocarina of Time. He's almost 8 which I think is probably close enough.

Windwaker is pretty good. Having to navigate to the next area over endless ocean is an interesting idea, but get tiring after a while.

Twilight Princess is also pretty good. I played the GC version, so I can't vouch for the Wii controls and the Wii version is literally flipped horizontally so that Link is right-handed. It's concept is also interesting, with the wolf form and light vs dark.

Your kid is 8 huh? Must be pretty bright, my wife was constantly saying "Why can't I figure this out, THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A KID'S GAME?!" I'd be interested to hear how he fares.

This new game will be the first Zelda game (besides Adventures of Link, I guess) that I've never played. Dumb Wii...
