I like Zelda and like many have grown up playing them.

There is a connection for playing these games at Christmas ever since Majora's Mask around 2000, 2001. So I am not sure if I want to buy this on the 22nd and play it right away or wait to Christmas before starting it.

I think I might just go and start it this weekend as its not like I get time off at Christmas anymore to enjoy things like new video games or feel the same as I was then. I'm not sure I will get what I am looking for from the game but I am a lot older now and am maybe expecting too much from a video game (the same feeling when playing Majora's Mask all those years ago on a cold Christmas morning).

Times have changed and I am in two minds over buying it at all.

NOW!

@nightriff:

WHY?

YEAH, WHY?!

Wait until Christmas so you will be more excited to play it.

If having enough free time is an issue I definitely say now.

Why? as an adult, you'll need to maximize your holiday time to get gaming in. By getting it now you'll have some crucial hours around Thanskgiving to get started on the game you wouldn't have around Christmas.

Also if you get it now, you can always change your mind and wait to play it later if you want.

Please pump the brakes a bit on creating threads. There's no need to make a new one every time you have a new idea pop into your head.

I'm going to go ahead and lock this down because this decision is really entirely up to you, and it isn't likely to generate any meaningful discussion.
