Another one of my favorites

This one and the one before it are two games that really, IMO, paved the way for fantasy/wizardry/adventure games. I haven't played it in about 15 years because I never bought a copy. Then I bought one a few years ago from a pawn shop and it won't even work. I have it sitting about 10 feet from me and it won't even work. I paid six dollars for it, so it isn't too bad. I would still like for it to work, though., I always thought this was one of the best games for the NES.

Yeah, it's one of my favorite games as well even thought it's a pain to get through and it takes a lot longer than a lot of current video games that fall in the same category (okay so it took me a long time). The style of the game, although drastically different from the original LoZ, is amazing as we get to see how large Hyrule is compared to what's in pretty much all the other Zelda games.

Anyway, great game and Nintendo needs to bring the down-thrust back into the Zelda games.
