Good review. I'd have gone all the way with a "10" score personally, since a ten doesn't literally mean perfect in my book, but 9.8 is quite fitting.
To this day I have trouble deciding which game I like better - this, or the original 8-bit Zelda. If I look at what the game industry was upon their release and the impact they had, I side with the original (plus, you got a second quest out of it). But if I go purely by content and timeless appeal, then A Link to the Past is the victor.
Either way, they're my two favorite games of all time.
