It’s been a long road to this point: game has gone against game, instrument against instrument, gorgeous melody against gorgeous melody. The entire

Zelda series is filled to the brim with numerous memorable tunes that we could spend all day and night listening to…but alas, one must stand on top. A week ago we reached the final showdown of the soundtracks: The Wind Waker VS. Majora’s Mask, and the fans have spoken. After giving you all a full seven days to cast your ballots, we are proud to announce that your choice for Best Soundtrack in the franchise, with 59.47% of the vote, is…

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker!

I certainly can’t blame you guys for that choice.

Majora’s Mask definitely has some iconic songs to its name, but the feel and style of The Wind Waker‘s soundtrack are nothing short of fantastic. Everything about the music of the game just fits so well into the world of the Great Sea and all of Link’s adventures upon it, drawing you in and refusing to let go from the recital of the legend of the Hero of Time until the Princess and the Hero of Winds sail off to the horizon. An excellent pick, everyone, and definitely deserving of the top musical slot of the series.

Thank you everyone for participating in these votes, and we look forward to seeing you again for the next

Zelda Versus! And please don’t forget to help us determine our fans’ favorite Zelda games, too—every vote counts, after all, and yours could be the one that swings your top pick into the lead.
