Well of course LttP has vastly superior gameplay to any of the CD-i games, I was only referring to story and characters, not gameplay or design. :)
But yes, originality does matter... like with WW vs. TP, where TP is better in most ways gameplay-related, but I put WW at about equal because of the better story and how much more unique and original it is... well, and that the whole sailing thing was pretty fun, but running around TP's OoT-style world is fun too, so that's not a big edge. But TP, while a great game, feels like it's been done before, while WW feels new... and is, to a degree. I think that does matter.
