How so? I thought that OoT had better atmosphere than any games before it in many ways... though there were some things that the 2d ones did do better. I liked how in the 2d games the overworld was a place with challenging enemies and lots of puzzles and stuff... MM did a much better job at that but it had its own problems, and still didn't match the 2d games in that respect.
I just like the feeling that I get from playing those 2D Zeldas more than I do from OoT and MM, even though they're my second and third favorite Zelda titles, respectively (WW gets the number one spot). A lot of it is nostalgia since I literally grew up playing Zelda, but there's also this sense of innocence, fun, and adventure that I found to be more prevalent in the 2D Zeldas, which I missed while playing Oot and MM. Wind Waker brought back much of that which is one of the reasons why I like it so much.
