5, and it was one of my older sibling’s friends that just let us have a bunch of their games that they were done with. It quickly became my favourite game on the N64, along with Smash Bros later on.
Number 1. The original. I was so happy when BOTW gave the the open exploration based feel from that very first game again. The other 3d games we just so linear and hand holding in comparison.
#1 I’m almost 40
#1 for me. That gold cartridge really stood out amidst my collection of other NES games, for more reasons than one. Naturally, I needed a guide to get through my first playthrough, but I kept coming back to it and eventually had the whole game damn near memorized.
#1, which I rented from my local video rental store back when video rental was all small, locally owned businesses - until I was eventually gifted a cart of my own for my birthday. I tried to find it not that long ago when I stopped to visit my parents. I found my original 8-bit NES and all of my games except Zelda. I suspect my niece, who had been living in my old room for a number of years, may have found it on the top shelf of the closet and realizing its value either sold it or gave it to her boyfriend.
1, but 5 is the one I spent the most time playing
Unrelated, but what Zelda should i play, I’ve retired on link to the past, and minish cap

First ever was #1, first one I beat was #11 though
#1. Had to go to a distant friend’s house to play it because no one else had a Nintendo yet.
God I’m old…

No phantom hourglass then?
I did not do the image myself, but it would seem not. Apparently, the OP didn’t bother to add 5 of the 20 Zelda games… I didn’t notice it because I mostly played the old Zelda games, but that’s kinda bad… sorry about that.
I had never played a Zelda game (or even any nintendo game except wii sports and mario kart wii) 3 years ago. Decided to try ocarina of time 3d on an emulator and got hooked. I still need to play majora’s mask and skyward sword of the 3D games and I have a few 2d Zeldas left but overall it has been a great experience and awesome journey, and I have also branched out and played all metroid and 3d Mario games and consider myself a Nintendo fan now.
Edit: this post has actually inspired me to boot up a link to the past and give it another chance and I realised part of why I didn’t get into it originally was the input lag that can rather easily be mitigated in retroarch. Having a great time

#2 for me

4, since Gameboy was the first system we were allowed to play in our home. Stole my sister’s copy to play it and got in to a fight when I stole from the store under her save file.
I also remember burning through an insane number of AA batteries when I was attempting a less-than-smart solution to one of the room puzzles in Eagle’s Tower.

Fantastic music, too. Here’s a great article about the musical motifs in the game.
Where is Phantom Hourglass? I loved that game!
That was a good one :) I remember tripping out when I had to close my DS for one of the puzzles.
But on that note, Spirit Tracks is missing too!
I was around for 1, didn’t play any until 5, and have only played 5 and 6.
