Come hither o traveler... I sing ye a song yet so melancholy, my voice speaketh the epitaph of darkness.Come into my world young Hylian.Darkest apocalypse hour approaches...Awaken from thy slumber whilst destiny's dreaming of ye soul. Dost thou haveith the time to end thy slumber? Lest thee interfere with my plan, death shall find ye!My mask sees the beginning is the end...I am Majora!

It depends.

Personally I think learning Python would be best (with Pygame). But Gamemaker might be better for beginners (but I don't approve of using it). ;)

Most people here use Gamemaker.

Gamemaker is very good for beginners, though it isn't the best language for games. It might be one of the most practical ones, but certainly languages like C++ or Python are better.

I think the easiest way would be using Zelda Classic, but it's too limited when you want to customize certain things in your game.

Some people also use Macromedia Fusion, Flash, Java, Visual Basic, and other languages.

I never liked ZC, I always found it harder to use than GM.

I avoid Flash, Fusion, and M$ VB like the plague. >_<

you should use gamemaker, If you have doubts about it then ask either in the programming forum here, or in the game maker community.

Definetly game maker. Don't try and make zelda games first though. Even incredibly good programmers have trouble making and finishing them.

I still think Pygame is best, even if it's harder. At least you're allowed to own the games you make. :-\

Well I know even a year ago I knew very little about how to make a zelda game...trust me you need to know a LOT before  you can try to make an original game.

Don't get me wrong though, look at some of the game maker code and simple tutorials for zelda games and try and see how they work...just don't throw them together thinking you know what you're doing.
