     Link is the protagonist.  Zelda is kidnapped by Ganon.  Link must save Zelda.  Goes through various themed dungeons.  Picks up Master Sword.  Goes through more various themed dungeons.  Link reaches Castle with Ganon residing in.  Link Defeats Ganon.  Nintendo still thinks the Protagonist shouldn't get any pooty tang.

    I can't tell if this is supposed to be clever.
     
    Newsflash, video games don't have the most amazing plots.
    You are a protagonist, something initiates action, you react, you progress through a series of stages, you win.

    I guess Majora's Mask isn't part of the franchise.  But yes, that's about right.  Link needs to get laid.

    Who cares about the story?  As long as the game is fun, that's all that matters.

    Unlike other developers that try to make their franchises hip for the new age, Nintendo still has class and keeps profanity or sex away from their own games. They publish some games with those things though, and they usually don't talk about it.

    A game can be good without story, but I'd rather play a game that has a great story than one that doesn't.
