Just so you know, in case you haven't noticed, a 0.2 fell off your rating. I can help you look for it. It has to be somewhere around here.

I had the SNES Zelda as a teenager and man, I agree with your review, it is a masterpiece.
Sadly I never playes the NES Zelda since my game store did not have the game. I played weeks ago when I bought my WiiU.
And it is also a timeless masterpiece, a wonderful game that everyone should play till the end. Super hard, but awesome.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

if someone tries to play the nes zelda, please google the map that came in the manual, you are not supposed to play that game blindly.

I've long felt that ALttP is the best in the series. Perhaps it's because it was my first introduction into the Legend of Zelda franchise, or perhaps it's just that good. I know it's the only Zelda game I still play on and off, even having beaten it several times. A Link Between Worlds was a worthy successor, even if the 2D/3D concept felt a bit wonky sometimes, it was nice to revisit the world of ALttP, and I enjoyed many of the updates to the classic Zelda formula.

No doubt, ALttP is simply an amazing game. Its at the top of my list of the good Zelda's... though my list may be controversial as I put TP (with GC controls) along with MM as second.

You're right, A Link to the Past deserves a 9.8... because the GBA remake deserves a 10

Excellent job review!!!

I still have 2 original cartridges SNES ver. & GBA ver. I already bought one on Wii U. Link to the past is a masterpiece game forever. 10/10

A Link to the Past is rather boring imo. Put me to sleep when I played it on the SNES then later the GBA. I've beaten Link's Awakening and the original several times, but this one is garbage imo.  Haven't played any of the other overhead titles except for that four player one which is also boring(played that one on the 3DS.)
