Since I got Legend of Legaia from my cousin (favorite game ever), I would have to say Ocarina of Time.
i think it's because many people are younger, they never played or don't remember the classic consoles. arkanoid and breakout might even be the best games ever made(simple and addictive), but which of you know about these games? second explanation is that a lot of peole think newer=better or having awesome graphics makes a game good. Graphics add to gameplay, that's true, but i rather like to play arkanoid the way it is supposed to be played, then in ultra-hyper-modern 3d surroundings with effects splattering all over the screen.
