This is Zelda for me. This is the first one I played and the basis for playing Zelda irl as a kid. I still play this one. I've never beat it, but I love it.
Edit. I finally beat it. Still my favorite Zelda game and one I will keep playing.
I was surprised to see how much different this game is than the original. And I have to say that the original looks like a better game based on my limited playtime.
Like CastleVania II: Simon's Quest, this game tried something different for a sequel before internet poles could influence. Kudos to N-do for doing so. I'll leave any shredding to the AVGN.
Not at all a bad game, it was just unique and different. It still held true to it's Zelda roots, with a relatively open world, and you could go wherever, whenever. It added some RPG elements, and side scrolling.
So this was my first Zelda game as a kid. My death at the hands of the Black Knight and Game over screen were literal nightmare fuel.
I took cracks at it when older also so we are clear. Still a second tier Zelda for me. I kind of want them to go back and do some sort of remaster for this because their vision was just too much for the NES to handle and I want to see what happens.
The RPG elements are a nice change of pace. Sets the tone for letting people know that every Zelda game won't be the same. Take that BOTW haters.
But seriously, this was a game I played after renting from Blockbuster and let me tell you, a weekend of limited playing time is not enough to even crack the surface. There are some cool elements here - some which have stayed with the series (i.e. interacting with town people). But in the end, this was too ambitious for the poor NES to handle. If you're a fan of the series, it's a must play for nostalgia reasons. Link's Shadow is a really cool way to end.
