Nintendo have made some controversial decisions in the past, regarding their hugely popular Legend of Zelda series. However, from the cel-shaded look of Wind Waker, to Skyward Sword's motion controls, the end results have almost always been well received. The same cannot be said for Nintendo's decision to license the series out to third-party developers for Philips' CD-i console. Resulting in a series of games that have since been decried as awful and blasphemous, the CD-i generation of Zelda games is a taint on the series' otherwise respectable history. Three Zelda games were created for the CD-i console, each of them even worse than the last. The three titles were made up of Link: The Faces of Evil, Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon and Zelda's Adventure. Totally lacking Nintendo's high level of first-party quality control, all three were laggy, unresponsive and missing any semblance of what made the 'real' series fun. However, it's the weird, outsourced Russian animations that are scattered throughout the games that have grown to be the most notorious. Badly voiced, and filled with cringey dialogue, the animated cutscenes continue to be celebrated for their terrible quality to this very day. Needless to say, the games have since been totally retconned from the official Zelda timeline. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mHw5g55oC4
