NES game of the week: Legend of Zelda

***Heroine of the Dragon*** · 11-04-2005, 07:54 AM

Legend of Zelda

Now I'm sitting here and wondering why I still haven't completed this game. It wasn't because it grew old; because it was fun as anything... must have been a hiccup in the time continuum or something. Oh well. I'm tired and can't think. Nor type, I'd guess, by the number of typos I'm correcting.

Game description:
Released in 1987.
An adventure game based on beating the baddies whilst completing quests and solving puzzles. It's fun. You acquire items to help you through the dungeons as you progress in the game. You even get a MAGIC WAND!! And a game that includes wands has to rock, right? *laughs* Anyways, it's a great game and now it's been ported to other consoles, you can enjoy it all over again!!

Your task, if you should accept it, is to
1. Rate your gaming experience with this game;
2. Pick your most favourite part, and least favourite; and
3. Rave all you like about this game (even if you haven't played it, don't own it or whatever... as long as it's about this game).

I never got to the end of it (I got bored, sadly) But it was a great if nigh-on impossible game while it lasted.

I don't recall if I've even played it, would you believe? *rummages for it* ...Hah. I'm sure we used to own it when I was very young and stuff, 'cause I certainly can't find it now.

I was going to buy the GBA version, but never got around to it. Haven't gotten any "new" games in ages now. Awww.

Yeah, I always go and get the best items first before beating the dungeons. I agree, Hjots.. the wand totally owns.

EAST MOST PENINSULA IS THE SECRET.

***Cosmonautical*** · 11-06-2005, 02:52 PM

Leinad · 11-06-2005, 04:05 PM

My... my... MYGAMECARTRIDGE is missing. NOOOO!! And, I can't think where it is. *sad-nose*

I brought the GBA version only last week, my original is upstairs somewhere.

Although, I've been playing it today. And I've died countless times already. And I've only just done the first dungeon.
