You should get Ikaruga next mate.

I think I need a break from games for awhile, actually

Since April, I've more-or-less been constantly playing - Metroid Prime, PDO, the two Zeldas - and because of my gaming crapness, and an addictive personality, when I get sucked into a game, everything else goes out the window

So, lucky for me Ikaruga would be an import, and thus require a little more effort to acquire

Very sensible of you moobaa.

Ikaruga is a harsh mistress that likes to whip you into shape. She's a sexy lady though, make no mistake.

PFVA - your post describes the experience exactly. Reading that was like deja vu for me

Sorry to raise this one from the dead, but I'm bastard-well stuck on the final battle with Ganondorf!

I get to the part with the arrow deflections OK, and then once I do manage to deflect an arrow, I steam in to smack the bastard and it seems that he takes no damage at all?

I keep trying until I've supped all of grandma's soup and used all three fairies I have in stock, but no joy! WTF am I doing wrong?

Is this what you're after?

Spoiler wrote:Ganondorf is standing over Zelda's lifeless body. There is some dialogue between you and him and he charges... and completely pummels you. He holds you up and activates all three Triforces. They combine to form THE Triforce, the one that grants wishes to its holder. Ganondorf throws you down and goes to claim his prize, only to be stopped by the King of Hyrule. See, the King touches the Triforce first and wishes that you have hope, and that Hyrule be sealed away forever. That serves as enough of a distraction for you and Zelda to wake up.
Time to end this. Zelda hands Link the Master Sword and the final battle begins.
You and Zelda are double-teaming Ganondorf, so the trick is to get her to hit him with the light arrows she's firing. The easiest way to do that is line it up so he is between the two of you. Just keep backing (or backflipping) away from him until he gets hit (he HURTS, so don't get hit). He'll be stunned, which is your chance to wail on him. After a while, he gets mad and slaps Zelda. You're on your own now.
He comes at you with a slash, spin slash, then a jumping attack. As he jumps, you'll be able to do the parry attack. If it hits, he'll be stunned and you can get a couple hits in on his back. Repeat until Zelda wakes back up.
She'll fire light arrows at him, but he'll dodge. All you can do now is try and keep from getting hit. Eventually, Zelda wises up. She comes up with a new tactic. She'll shoot an arrow at you, and you bounce it back at Ganondorf with your mirror shield. He'll be stunned, but only for a second. Quickly lock onto him, draw your sword, and run up to him. DON'T ATTACK! Instead, he will attack you, and you can use the parry attack to deal the final blow. Huzzah!

I read that somewhere else, but it doesn't seem to work. You just get your arse kicked.

Soz.

I just took it from an online guide I grabbed a while back.

Yay! I done it!

Phew, that was a long haul. Maybe now I can start on Metroid Prime.

It seem that you got thru Ganondorff on Wind Waker. Wait till you meet Ganon in the Ocarina of Time.

It was amazing my Wavebird survived.

I think I might wait a few months before I play that. Fancy a change of scenery a bit now.

I agree. He was a right prick compared to the WW Ganondorff...

Ok, so I'm slow as fuck, but I've finally sat down and started playing zelda. OMG! I love this game with all my little heart.

It is a truly marvellous experience.
