While I think that Zelda 1 is, for the most part, an excellent and timeless game, one thing that is seriously flawed is it's economy. While finding rupees throughout the world was enjoyable in the beginning of the game, once you find all of the hidden rupee spots, you must rely on the game's random "money making game" to earn a significant amount of rupees in an amount of time that isn't patronizing. This is an issue because rupees are extremely valuable in this game. They buy you bombs, serve as ammo for arrows for your bow, and allow you to buy potions, which are essential for not driving yourself mad in these dungeons.

Since I don't have to patience to rely on luck for such a necessary asset, I've come up with a cheap solution. I'm not ashamed.

Profit.
