Yeah, I only JUST beat Adventure of Link, and I cheated outrageously using the 3DS's Restore feature.
I totally understand the "... Yeah, I forgot what I'm supposed to do next" stage. And Majora's Mask is especially difficult there just because of its format. (I know a lot of people are put off because it's basically entirely made of side quests, but I find it really immersive. I still wouldn't pick up a game I'd left hanging for a while--I'd definitely start over.)
Apparently if you get all the way through Link's Awakening without getting killed once, you get a a screen at the end showing that Marin got reincarnated as a seagull--a fate she confides would be one she'd really like. I'm ... not sure if that makes it better or worse. The "It was all a dream" twist usually bugs me, anyway--though I do liked the added bit of existential angst of this one, where the dream characters are WORRIED about what happens when the dreamer awakes.
