One of the Better Zelda Games in the Series

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap for Game Boy Advance

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap is great! I was a wary for a while because Capcom made it rather than Nintendo, but once I got my hands on it, my fears were quickly diminished. This is a Zelda game in every sense of the word. You have a top-down action adventure with an overworld, you have dungeons to defeat, various monsters to fight and items & treasures to discover, and plenty of side quests & side games to keep you coming back for more. The added "mini" puzzles and Kinstone secrets fleshed out the game much more than the basic travelling from dungeon to dungeon.

I personally have a real soft-spot for Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for SNES, so that will always be the #1 Zelda game for me. But right after that, I would place Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. And that took the original Legend of Zelda's (for NES) place in my personal ranking of Zelda games.

The Legend of Zelda – The Minish Cap continues the collaboration between Capcom and Nintendo established with the Oracle games on GameBoy Color.  What makes Minish Cap exciting is the combination of the new shrinking game play mechanic and a return to colorful 2d graphics.  Featuring entirely new tilesets and character sprites in the vein of Four Swords Adventures, Minish Cap is one of the last 2D Zelda games released.
