I didn't play many Zelda games as a kid, so I didn't fight many of the game's bosses.

That one dude which came out of a magic bottle in Link's Awakening DX will forever be a thorn on my side.

The bosses in Skyward Sword were quite tricky, it was a clash of them being quite creative and the Wii Motion + not working as I wanted to.

Vaati's boss fight, I don't know why and how I got stuck with this one, but it's probably because of these damn guys

The second form of Vaati is quite annoying too

 

[DunkeyKong]

Now I have beaten him and his minions thanks to those Blade Brothers, Vaati ain't shit now

This jerk. I would always get him down to one hit just to be knocked off the ledge.

I was stuck with Volvagia for a while in Ocarina of Time as a kid, I didn't know english, so I just got the hammer but didn’t make the connection that it had to be used with him until my brother told me

I swear to god, the hardest part of Skyward Sword is getting the wii remote plus to work properly

The Water Temple itself...

The final battle of LTTP with the pig ganon took a me a while to figure out, I was very young and had absolutely no idea about a lot of the optional upgrades, making the battle seem impossible at first.

The final battle of Tloz Tp was PEAK it drove me crazy when I was a kid it was so damm epic and so hard for me xddd
and the part of the fight riding horses was EPIIIIC

The legend of zelda 1. second quest gleeok.
at first, got frustrated, then got used and becoming in a test for measuring my patience and skill.
helped me to git gud (and really was for the better).

I always had troubles for bosses that were more puzzle focused.

Zelda 1 is quite challenging for sure. I had issues with Manhandla (although some well placed bombs were effective enough) and the still exclusive Patra.

I remember the other one that really gave me a headache:
smog. oracle of ages, the boss of the fifth dungeon. half monster, half puzzle.
such a soul-sucking troll... and it is back as a boss in echoes of wisdom.

In some way I'm glad when Nintendo remembers about Capcom/Flagship's Zelda but it's hard to understand how this boss works without a guide.

Agreed.

I sometimes had problems with Phantom Ganon and with these Golden Lions from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
