What Zelda has the best design?

[Uzumaki Goku]

There have been so many different Zeldas that I see no point in designing a poll around it. But what Zelda is her absolute best design and look? What will always be your Zelda?

For me, it's Ocarina of Time Zelda:

Wind Waker Zelda is a close second, but this Zelda will always be my Zelda to me.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Twilight Princess Zelda

 

[Hardvlade]

I may be in the minority here, but I like Twilight's design the best, followed by OoT

You should do a poll!

 

[Z-Beat]

Big fan of Twilight Princess with the rapier

but it's Tetra. It was always Tetra

 

[Dreamboum]

ALBW, I'm glad Smash moved away from edgelady TP Zelda

[Dest]

Twilight Princess

Twilight Princess has the best design for a Zelda game all around tho

Hilda

TP is bland as fuck
BOTW > SS > WW > OOT > whatever

 

[Oinone]

One more for Twilight Princess - the most beautiful Zelda for me.
(The queen of the Zoras is very beautiful as well, btw.)

[RuffMadman]

Perfection

 

[Normal]

Twilight Princess

 

[Wamb0wneD]

Yeah Twilight Princess is probably the best one. Though the Smash Ultimate one is pretty damn neat, too.

I don't know... it's just... I don't know if I can fit them all.

Its hard to choose for me.


TP Zelda was a great oldschool style.


SS Zelda is great and so is BotW Zelda


But ya Hilda's design was fantastic.

 

[Asbsand]

Twilight Princess Zelda

A great design tainted by the memory of her nonexistent character.
It was such a let-down, and that's why we need another TP-aesthetic game that does right by it.

 

[Phil's Empty Chair]

WW followed by BotW.

 

[Mediking]

Twilight Princess Zelda

BOTW 2 Zelda

 

[Shion]

Twilight Princess

Best one yup. Perfection.

 

[Syril]

I like Cadence of Hyrule Zelda.

 

[ze_]

ALttP and ALBW are my favourites. Was pretty pleased to see that design of all designs replace TP Zelda. Good taste, Sakurai.

I also love Tetra, but... let's leave it to Tetra.

 

[Naga]

Smash Ultimate Zelda (aka updated ALTTP) for me.
TP and BOTW Zelda closely behind.

edit: HW Zelda is pretty good too, as long as you remember her outfit is to fight.

 

[BigBlue]

Twilight Princess, periodt.

 

[oatmeal]

Ocarina and LTTP.

 

[skeezx]

 

[ZiZ]

Smash ultimate

Followed by BotW

Honorable mention for hyrule warriors.

 

[Luke88]

Hilda

This.

But also Wind Waker, come on.

 

[Xenoblade 3]

Hyrule Warriors Zelda:

 

[Serenitynow]

Not enough SS love in this thread

 

[Deleted member 8861]

TP and Wind Waker both look amazing going by the two examples in this thread

 

[Ragnorok64]

 

[Exede]

OP this screams poll, its twighlight princess obviously

 

[Deleted member 10737]

twilight princess or botw
both look very strong and well designed, but of course very different.

Voted BotW. There's just something I totally love about that re-design.

 

[Servbot24]

Best: ALBW
Worst: Hyrule Warriors

 

[Flevance]

Voted for BoTW, but I'm actually leaning towards BoTW 2

Well, it's the same Zelda, just with her hair shorter.

 

[Zacmortar]

Twilight Princess with the proper adult Queen design(shouldve been Queen Zelda) is honestly amazing, but goddamn do I have a real giant soft spot for the first proper dress-less Zelda with BotW's blue outfit.

It'd be my favorite if she were playable. Atleast it looks good in Hyrule Warriors.

 

[Flevance]

True, but that's make it a better design imo

 

[Monster Zero]

Gotta say Twilight Princess. Looks very regal.

 

[Uzumaki Goku]

Quite a few games used the Wind Waker design. Spirit Tracks for example. Should I count the Four Swords and Minish Cap Zelda as Wind Waker Zelda or is that different?

 

[Jarmel]

Tetra. Her pirate design is easily my favorite.

 

[low-G]

Link Between Worlds.

Although I like the concept of Sheik vs Zelda in OOT better, but I think we're just talking visual design of Princess Zelda here...
