I don't get this... Why is Zelda classified as an RPG? There are almost no elements in it that would give it that classification. That's not counting Zelda 2, which had EXP and random battles and such.

I guess my favorite RPG styles would be the Chrono Trigger style, with no random battles and no battle screens, and the Mario RPG style, with Timed Hits and other such things. M & L had an awesome combination of RPG and Action.
