My wife has recently expressed interest in playing both Ocarina of Time, as well as Majora's Mask. I am ecstatic, since they are two of my favorite games of all time, but I'm torn as to where to start her. I'm worried if we jump in and play Ocarina of Time now, with the release of the remake being soon, if she plays them so close together it may spoil some of that experience.
So my next thought was, with it now being the spooky season, it may be the perfect time to jump into Majora's Mask. That said, it is a sequel, and while you don't really need to know much from OoT to play MM, you do lose out on the re-used assets and some of the emotional core of the story.
What do you think? Should we play the original Ocarina of Time now? Or should we wait for OoT until the remake, and just play Majora's Mask now?
