The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages/YMMV


 * Complete Monster: Veran, the self-proclaimed Sorceress of Shadows is a downright nasty, mean-spirited woman who goes to horrific lengths to spread sorrow through the land of Labrynna. After possessing Nayru, the Oracle of Ages herself, she goes back in time in order to screw up the kingdom's history by acting as the treacherous advisor to Queen Ambi and slowly corrupts the good-hearted queen through her influence. Veran's machinations lead to the men of Lynna Village being enslaved and forced to construct an enormous tower through back-breaking labor, which results in an enormous symbol of oppression hanging over the village's denizens. She also sends a few monsters to kill the sentient Maku Tree while she's a defenseless sprout, breaks the Tuni Nut which causes Symmetry Village to be wiped out by a volcanic eruption if things don't change in the past, turns a group of friendly monkeys and a child into stone, and poisons the ocean which leads to the death of the Zora King in the present day. And when she's confronted at the Queen's palace, she gleefully attempts to use Nayru as a human shield during her fight with Link, and when defeated and exorcised from the Oracle's body, she merely possesses Ambi instead and sends the creation of her Black Tower into full swing. While it's revealed that, the creative and horrible ways Veran spreads that suffering seal her status as one of the biggest scumbags in the series.
 * Evil Is Sexy: Veran. As you can clearly see, Veran reads like a scrolling laundry list of kinks, and then some.
 * Twinrova. But as usual, only in her fused form.
 * Goddamn Keese: More obnoxious in this incarnation than in most others. Especially the flaming varieties.
 * The Scrappy: Many a player, male and female alike, wants to backhand Ralph through a wall... and then he redeems himself, just in time for Veran to actually do so.
 * Tingle also shows up in Ages.
 * That One Boss: Thwomp Head in Ages for being essentially a glorified game of roulette where you die if you lose the spin. Smog, also in Ages, for being a particularly frustrating Puzzle Boss. What doesn't help are the projectiles he shoots that can easily deal a great amount of damage if you're not careful.
 * Regarding Thwomp Head, he's not really a roulette wheel. Once you realize, it gets much easier. There's even safe spots for all of its attacks.
 * That One Level: Jabu-Jabu's Belly, seventh dungeon in Ages. It's a goddamn maze in there, to solve certain puzzles you have to navigate and backtrack through a dozen times, and being as it's inside a giant fish at the bottom of the ocean, you have to use the Mermaid Suit to get around.
 * Seasons has more of a That One Part: the one screen at the Temple of Seasons where you have to use the Roc's Cape (which normally has a four-space jump distance if you don't manually glide) to zig-zag over a chasm SEVEN HOLES LONG. IN ONE JUMP. WITHOUT BUMPING THE WALLS. You better have a potion ready for all that life you'll be losing, a half-heart at a time.
 * For that part, you can just change the season to autumn to have leaves cover up the holes and act as a platform.
 * The Ancient Ruins from Seasons are disliked for being large and having an annoying boss, though part of it is due to the fact that it immediately follows the run through Tarm Ruins and the Lost Woods.
 * Woolseyism: The Uura ("hidden") and Tokagejin ("lizard-folk") races were dubbed as "Subrosians" (from the Latin sub rosa, referring to an old practice in which a rose was placed over a doorway to indicate a secret meeting) and "Tokay" (referring to a species of gecko).
 * Lucky Translation: In the Japanese version, Link wooed an Uura girl named Urara ("Beauty"). In the English, her name is Rosa, preserving the pun almost perfectly.
