This song's a little more involved than I thought. To actually play this properly is going to be a bit of a challenge. Mine will be up in about 2-200 years.
And not just our cartridge version, either. Even the Famicom Disk System version (Zeruda no Densetsu Tsuu: Link No Bouken) even had its battle-scene music used for Phantom Hourglass' mini-boss fights.
I have the NES Classic Series cartridge for my GBA/DS, and I still get a feeling of tension when I enter the Great Palace.

Damn, I've been playing this for years and didn't notice I was hitting a wrong note. Anyway it's great that you can play this, but there's no style. I mean it's just note for note, and without any percussion.
In reference to the video or at all the thumbs down my comment got. Jesus Christ, you can't give constructive criticism on Youtube because everyone takes everything personally. I said it was great, what's everyone's problem?
Oh yeah....lets add some shreds and extra riffs and hell while we're at it lets just take the entire original melody out....because the shreds are moar l33t...

Other than leaving the melody in tact (as it should stay)... why not? To me (and I await more thumbs down) if you're just playing it as is, then posting a video, it just seems like showing off. But if he added a little fire to playing, (a personal touch) it would seem more genuine to me. It is Zelda music, but without over-embellishing why not make it your own while playing it?
I believe he DOES show fire to his playing by going above and beyond what everyone else on this site does and actually mixes down his music, uses a mic that ISN'T on a webcam, and combines multiple tracks that are ALWAYS in sync. The resulting quality shows.
Anyone can start playing 1337 scale #27 in the middle of an NES melody...it takes real skill to stay within the margins and still impress any and all that watch these videos.
Can you imagine what it's like to have composed this, then come to youtube 20-some years later and hear this? You'd ... be a happy old Japanese man, you would. :)
this is probably the hardest one...still havent managed to get pastt he beastie you use a pipe to get past then you have to get past this wall, with more baddie types....tis hardcore....atleast it was back in the day.
Thanks again! I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I hope you're finding a way to get hired as studio genius (if music is your dream). You are very skilled in performing, and arranging!
Awesome work.
