NES Longplay [100] Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (Part 1 of 2)

[REALSlutHunter]

Battle of Olympus is way better :p

I like this game despite that it's a difficult game to play. For starters, the Thunderbird is very difficult to defeat. The only two things that I dislike about this game is that they don't have hearts appearing randomly from enemies like in the first one and there's no map so at times, you might get lost on some of the difficult levels. But I digress though. It is a good game nevertheless!

[phalanx237]

This game may be slightly different from the one before it but I consider it one of the greatest NES games of all time. Got me through some hard times in childhood, so I guess that is why I like it so much.

I've never been a huge fan of this particular Zelda game... it just had such a different feel with the side-scrolling view. The whole game looks like it was made by a entirely different group of developers when you compare it to the first Zelda, and Link to the Past.

@10forRP This game set the stage for all the 3d zelda's and introduced magic.

[squallgallardo]

This game was the precursor of GTA.

In this game hookers can replenish your health, but you don't have to pay anything, ha!

i counted 84 attacks on the skull

[briansetoex]

Basically when you close to finishing the palace look at your points,

for example in palace 1. he should have skipped the life and magic upgrade, wich would have given him the option to get attack for 1000 points.

When you have that option, just kill the palace boss and, voila, free 1000 point attack upgrade. And so on.

[briansetoex]

@ MushroomBoy64

It is not really a lvl up. You dont have to accept the upgrade in attack, life or magic once you reach the points needed to upgrade. That way you keep the points and can save the points for another upgrade you want. Cause you dont lose points when you cancel.

[MushroomBoy64]

Question: Why do you say "cancel" sometimes when you level up? I don't get that.

BTW, I didn't know those floating skulls were destructable.

[Luigi84289]

@MushroomBoy64 Because he's saving his hearts for another attribute. I level up life and attack before magic.

[fromsinking]

Verily, a most adventuresome quest.

[Misel982001]

Please write at the description when each game was released

[ValisHD]

@Misel982001 the game does that for us

[Misel982001]

@ValisHD yes but it might take some time to show it and besides that not all games show their release date.

[ValisHD]

@Misel982001 lol

[Misel982001]

@ValisHD stop laughing and keep playing!Next game is Ocarina of Time!

[ValisHD]

@Misel982001 sorry! >_> i never finished that game before

[Luigi84289]

@ValisHD It's tough I didn't finish it for the first time until 2001.

[ininja32]

Now, this is a 8-bit game for all ages, fun and hard at the same time.

[Kingofbandits05]

Not into Zelda like..at all aside from Link To The Past, and yet I love this one lol

[420JonesZ]

I really like this game. The Boss battles are great.

[teckwerks]

Hard as tits, but I'll be goddamned if it ain't fun. Would like to see another Zelda game like this, with a slight Metroid-style to the map layout, and not that CDi fuckshit.

[Kwak3r]

man was this ever hard when i was a kid..

[Metafron]

I think most people don't care for this game because it strays away from the"norm". I used to not care for it as well. I was like, What the hell is this crap? But after i got older, i noticed i actually liked it.

[BullsFanatic]

what a joke this game was compaired to the others in the series. Who thought it was a good idea in the first place?

[pbawesome]

@BullsFanatic

Are you serious? i like it a lot

[BullsFanatic]

@pbawesome yeah i keep forgetting that people only watch longplays of games they enjoyed playing. Most people who have played all the zelda tiltes would disagree with you. The one zelda game that was practicaly a flash game on a home system was way worse though :(

[pbawesome]

@BullsFanatic

I have played all zelda games and i agree that this was on of the weakest (i think the minish cap is the worst) but still i enjoy playing it.

[sagamok1234]

very nostalgic game

[Michaelhall340]

you can actully kill them damn floating skulls fml XD

[Phlebiax]

I used to have the Golden Cartridge for this game :)

[timhomer2009]

Excellent job! I was wondering when you were going to get around to this.

[spoonshiro]

Good game, even if it did have some really annoying faults.

[hignejax]

"I am Error"

[sbcmarine81]

Even though it's a tough game and I've never beaten it (I can get to the last palace but that's about it) I still love this game. It has great music for an 8-bit game.

[DavenSaloon]

@sbcmarine81

Yeah totally agree with you, I didn't know what to do 10 years ago, but I always played this game because of the music and atmosphere

[georgemargaris]

wunderfull!

[kodiaik]

this videogame is great and i have beat it and man the thunder bird boss before dark link is a pain in the butt

[ValisHD]

@kodiaik same here that thing was a pain

[nezimar]

This is the first Zelda I played, so I had no preconceptions to judge it by. I thought it was effin amazing just on its own merits.

[LateTheMan]

nice!
