See I think that sentence contradicts your first sentence. Zelda's today don't have amazing AI and they aren't brutally difficult either (minus Water temple in OoT).
I do think it gets an undeserved reputation though, it's not a bad game at all. It's like calling Super Mario 64 a bad game because you were expecting 2D. (not the best example but you get the idea).

They didnt take everything from this game. But the whole platforming thing was first done with zelda 2. The new AI sucks. In Zelda II It was great for the stronger baddies. Very good for the NES era.

I wouldn't say there was any real AI in Zelda II. I'm a huge fan of Zelda II, but I also know my AI. most badguys just ran straight at you doing the same exact thing over and over again. A few were a little smarter, but I wouldn't say the AI was any more advance than any other game for the time. They just made it hard by giving you no large window you could attack in.
