    I believe the randomization is determined by the amount of players you have as well as the key difficulty. Certain enemies and obstacles will not show up for two-three players vs the full four. Certain enemies and layouts are also locked by difficulty. On the max difficulty you will get completely exclusive map layouts and enemies such as dark nuts. But it is truly annoyingly random. You could go several hero key runs and not see a hero key exclusive map because it shares the seed pool with silver and gold.

I also had forgotten that early 00's were so rich in Zelda-projects between this, Oracle-games and Wind Waker and Minish Cap. Very, very different times...

    I had the GameCube version where each person used their GBA as the controller connected via one of the docks for the GameCube (if I remember correctly). I played it with my brother's and we loved it. The overworld was all shown on the large screen, but if you went into a building that would transfer to your personal GBA. It really created a great balance of team work on the big screen and personal exploration on the little screen.

    Two things that prove to me that The Legend of Zelda is open-world: 1. Of the 128 overworld screens, only two require an item of any kind to reach. While extremely difficult, Link can get to Spectacle Rock before getting the sword. 2. Levels 1, 2, 3, and 8 can be found, entered, and completed in any order. The only locks for half of the levels are items found in the overworld and the difficulty curve.
