The original Legend of Zelda was the first game I ever finished. I still have my ye olde gold cartridge. The battery inside was fried (thanks Game Genie), but I was finally able to play it again when I got the Zelda Collector's Edition. And it did bring back a whole mess of wonderful memories. That overworld tune just stays with you forever.
It was much easier than when I was a kid, probably because I've gotten used to far more complex games now--or because I'd spent so much time in my youth memorizing the crap out of that game. I still had my own hand-drawn map of the 9th Labrynth. When I was a kid, that labrynth just seemed to go on forever. It was actually pretty short, overall, now. Also, my old hand-drawn map--despite the painstaking measures I took making straight lines and to-scale obstacles, I still managed to have two warps therein written incorrectly.
As a side note, I try not to play games in front of my 4-year old. It's not fair for him to just have to watch me have fun when he can't have fun, too.
