I beat the original LoZ without any problems.

However, did you beat it as it was intended? No map beyond the one that came with the game. No internet walkthrough or tips.

Only you, a pen, paper, overworld map that came with game, and memory? That's what I did at 11 when I first played it.

Drew notes on the overworld map (two different colors for 1st and 2nd play through), drew my own maps, kept notes.

Same thing with Metroid, Zelda II, Blaster Master, etc... so many fun and very hard games back then.

lol, also what I've been doing with 3D Dot Game Heroes more recently.

First time I played it was when I was 13, so 2003. Maybe 2004. Didn't have internet back then, it was springtime, Easter break probably and I just wandered around the map for hours and hours scouring the map for dungeons. If it wasn't the next dungeon numerical wise, I left XD. Took me forever to find the second dungeon. It was on the eastern half of the map in some obscure little nook.

I didn't draw out a map, I just memorised it. :X

That's what I'm talking about! *high five*

Gone are the days where you could spend months trying to beat a single game. I was 10 I believe it was when I beat the first LOZ. I played the game along with my step brother for almost a year to find it all! Now people just flock to easier titles, or look for cheats and walkthroughs on the net.
