How many Zelda games are there?

Legend of Zelda (NES)
Adventures of Link (NES) ::Sucked::
A Link to the Past (SNES)
Link's Awakening (GB) ::My personal fav::
Link's Awakening DX (GBC) ::Same game, with color::
The Ocarina of Time (N64)
Zelda: Gaiden (N64) ::Very different::

There were two games on the Philips CDi box, but they were graphic novel/point and click adventures. Needless to say, they sucked donkey balls.
The handheld version was actually made by Nintendo, but it did indeed suck.

 

Annotation by combee :
New Zelda games were released in 2001 for the Game Boy Color -- "Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages" and "Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons". Each game is separate, but they are linked by passwords which enhance the other game after beating the first. Also, the second N64 Zelda game was called "Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask" when released in the U.S. It has a very odd time motif, with the game ending after three simulated days, but with your character gaining the power to control time.

Phillips made the CDi, not panasonic. also, there was a zelda wristwatch game. don't recall who made that though.
