My top...erm...seven:
7. skyward sword
6. Minish cap
5. twilight princess (wii...haven't played it on gamecube)
4. Four swords adventure
3. Link's awakening
1.2. oracle of seasons/ages (I can't decide)
These are the versions I've played to the end (4 -> 1 twice). All versions I've played were never less than great, but still...I never really got into wind waker or Ocarina of time (and I spend 50 bucks on that 3DS remake ). And at a certain point, I just quit spirit tracks. Not because of the train (which I kind of liked), but because of those stacked dungeons. At a certain point, I died in one of the last dungeons (quite possibly the last one) and I just didn't feel like backtracking HALF AN HOUR to get to that same point. I'll still recommend it, but if you want to play it, make sure to do it with a save state.
And yes, I know: four swords adventure is also pretty different. And no, I never played it multiplayer or even linked with a GBC. I see it as a simple hack-n-slash game with a few simple puzzles that just happens to have the name "Zelda" slapped on it. I don't care much that there's no exporation, it revolves around collecting triangles and your upgrades don't carry between levels...It's fun, and that's what matters.
