I want to play Legend of Zelda, where do I begin?

I am a lifelong fantasy adventure geek, but very new to gaming and honestly I'm not that good.

I want to play Zelda but was overwhelmed by all the options, so I started at the beginning with the NES original on GameBoy Advance, but have found it fiendishly difficult (at least for my little rookie self) and don't think I can go on without "warming up" on some easier games.

Can you help guide me as to what order I should play them in? I like to respect storylines and/or release orders, but please remember I'm just not capable of a whole lot yet, also. I guess I'm asking where to begin and which Zelda games are easy enough for me.

I can currently play games for GameBoy Advance, GameCube and Wii, and am getting a Wii U soon-ish also. Think that covers *most* Zeldas.

Thank you!

    If you can start anywhere try Ocarina of Time, most people consider that the best of the series so it would probably be a good introductory game. Don't let anyone fool you, the very first game was indeed fiendishly hard, most of us only got through it because of Nintendo Power publishing a walkthrough. :P

    After OoT I think Windwaker might be the next friendliest game, despite many complaints about the sailing feature. I found it very fun and only had to seek help a couple of times.

    I could recomend you go with Minish Cap for the GBA first for a 2D Zelda game and for a 3D Zelda Game I will recomend you Skyward Sword for the Wii.

    best places to start are ocarina of time ( the template of all current zelda games )

    or majora's mask ( the one that dared to be different )

    windwaker would be you third ro fourth zelda gaem because quite frankly there is nothing quite like it

    and despite what a lot of fans what you to believe there is no real story line in between the games they are all standalone

    not even nintendo has a official storyline the storyline is what you want it to be

    Zelda Wind Waker HD on wii u is a good game, and it is easier than the other games.
