it wasn't bad... unless you compare it to what we have now. You have to consider what gaming systems existed at the time. This was a very big deal for it's time and everyone my age loved it without complaints back then.
Not only the Multi-Screen series of Game & Watch handhelds were what the Nintendo DS was inspired by, but it was also inspired by the last three arcade games Nintendo independently-created (Punch-Out!!, Super Punch-Out!! and Arm Wrestling), as well as the Virtual Boy (which uses two screens to create a 3D effect).
haha i've got this one...it's the most epic game and watch of them all! You collect the triforce pieces like the original zelda, a toma hawk to kill the giant dragon at the top screen faster, water of life to replenish your health, you kill bad guys in g&w style, and it even features a map to know where you are! Very cool G&W!
This was one of my Christmas presents in 1989. This game has replay value after all these years. Not to mention, the ability to trigger memories from a simpler time in video games. If you 're able to locate one, buy it! A firm, but rare player in video game history.
The DS looks like a Game and Watch. The 360 looks like an old white Compaq PC you put the monitor on. The PS3 looks like a grill. I think I'm starting to hate old school.
Fuck, this set my nostalgia senses off.

I HAVE THIS GAME ^_^
This game was so good it got a sequal- ZELDA II: The Adventure of Link!
It has the same gameplay style, the same lack of 'The Legend of' in the title, the same style of Link; seriously, ZELDA II is a sequal to ZELDA G&W!
