Majora's Mask, by a long shot. It's such a beautiful, thoughtful experience, and it's far more interesting, layered, and poetic than Ocarina of Time ever was.
IMO- with OoT people give it a lot of credit because it was the first to come out in 3d and it was well done. But I loved MM, i had a lot more fun playing it, the characters were great, and I loved putting on the mask and transforming
Oot had a more interesting story line but I have to say I prefer Majora's Mask. I liked all the transformations and the three days to save the world was an interesting aspect. Some people complained about the time limit but once you used the song to slow down time only once did I run into a problem.
Well I've only played through MM once and never really had the urge to play through it again. I've played through OoT about 5-6 times and still love it.
Ocarina of Time with a passion, its the game that made me fall in love with the Legend of Zelda series. OoT has everything in it, but i also have played and beat Majora's Mask it was a great game and experience, but it was on the verge of super confusing the depth the gameplay went into.
Ocarina of time, its a fantastic adventure i have fond memories of and its also my favorite game ever. Majoras mask is great too though so i cant really say its not as good, its just a matter of taste and opinion.
I'm a Majora's Mask man myself. Much prefer it over OoT, and I consider it the superior experience. I love how bizarre the world seemed, how upside down it was from Hyrule. Just surreal. Mechanics were better, the masks made for a more varied experience, and I like the characters more.
Ocarina of Time is one of my faveourite games ever. I just couldn't get into Majora's Mask, think I played about 5 hours and then started a new OoT game.
Majora's Mask was so much more artisitc and thought provoking than OoT. It's like OoT was the greatest game ever and then Nintendo built upon it and threw in a splash of madness. Beautiful.

That's a very fancy way to put it.
I have to say that I preferred The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the biggest reason being that Majora's Mask didn't feel like a three dimensional version of the games preceding it. I felt like Majora's Mask tried to take Ocarina of Time and pull it inside out to make it different and that just made it that much better.
The side quests seemed much more involved than Ocarina of Time's too.

That's why I hated Majora's Mask. Not the 3 day clock, the friggin' side quests. I have always been distracted easy, and I keep doing side quests, straying off from the main storyline. Thats why I never beat it :/ ADD sucks...
So far, I prefer Majora's Mask, but I have a few dungeons left in Ocarina, so I'll have to see whether my opinion changes. But the dungeons in MM were awesome, and I liked the darker, more brooding story. And that moon was just freaky! What's wrong with that moon?

OoT is a bit better since it was revolutionary and epic, but Majora's Mask had a depth that OoT never had. A deep bond to the characters, more challenging dungeons, better graphics and more sidequests are all advantages over Ocarina of Time, but it lacked the epicness. Still, Majora's Mask is a must-own.
MM's moon thing was just frustrating. I mean, who would really want to restart the level just because you took to long? If not for that, it'd be pretty equal.
Majora's Mask Better story Lots of side quest Some mask are fun to mess with Time limit doesn't bother me to much Good characters I like the setting better. OOT is still fantastic though. My only gripe about MM is the fact that when you travel back in time, you lose all of your money and items, so you have to use the freakin bank. :(
