@Tubekoekie Yes but graphics don't mean as much as how smoothly the games run and this doesn't ran smoothly and it gives you no sense of achievement when you complete it 'cos it gives you jackshit.
What's wrong with this game? For the time this was simply amazing.. better than Ocarina with all that annoying 3-d fighting in my opinion. Plus it has actual voice acting.. something even the NEW zelda games don't have.
I really appreciate how they made Zelda the playable character for once... but really? Did it have to be so badly done? And the live action intro and ending? It hurts...
No one but Nintendo should ever touch the Zelda series. Lesson Learned.
@dechav1 This isn't true Zelda as it wasn't made by Nintendo.
"As part of the negotiations related to Nintendo's decision not to have Philips create a CD add-on to the Super Nintendo, Philips secured the rights to use five Nintendo characters in their games for the CD-i. The games were given little funding or time for completion, and Nintendo provided only cursory input."
@neofox101 I think you're being a bit harsh...Philips invented the CD with Sony, which is a major accomplishment. The CD-i wasn't created with gaming in mind, but Philips became desperate for money and farmed these games out to cheap developers and gave them low budgets. Obviously the CD-i was a failure, but I don't think we can quite call Philips "good for nothing", because the idea had potential.
That comment is 4 years old. I know more about the stupid gimmicks of "CD" technology. Zelda's Adventure is a product of the FMV craze. While it seemed cool, FMV was just a cheap and worthless gimmick.
@neofox101 Ah, I see. IMO, the first two Zelda CD-i games had the potential to be good since they had nice in-game graphics (NOT the cinemas) and catchy music but also had the FMVs (barf) and sluggish control. ZA could've been good as well if the FMVs were better-acted and the gameplay didn't involve collecting so much useless rubbish only for it to have no use.
@reddranger Search "Cd-i emulator" and the first video that appears should have some links for the emulator, Hotel Mario, Link - Faces of Evil, Zelda - Wand of Gamelon, and Zelda's Adventure.
Because it shows me how bad Zelda COULD have been if someone else had made the REST of the series, which makes me cry for joy that Nintendo did it first and did it right.
If I had the money, I'd find every copy of the CD-I Zelda's in existence and BURN THEM.
Haha, good old days, I remember when playing this game + zelda+ link on cdi, I loved them all cause I wasn't used to other games. Your standards are just way too high.
I love how people try to talk shit, as if this game were made last week and not well over a decade ago..
What's the point of complaining about the quality of the graphics and the loading time of the CD-I..? Ever played the SegaCD or a 3D0? Single and double-speed drives were all we had back then. Most of what is being said about this game is irrelevant and reeks of inexperienced subjectivity. If you haven't played it and/or have no idea what games were like back then, shut the fuck up.
This game came out during the time of N64 and PS1, it was a horrible mistake for Nintendo to trust a company with the rights to mario and zelda. Games in the 90's were way better than this game. If you need a better explination on why this game is horrible look up AVGN CDI games.
Good graphics, bad animation, slow gameplay, and doesn't even look like a zelda game. I've heard the stories about how these games got made but...damn...lol.
the loading between each screen wouldn't be so bad of they weren't so small. also i feel sorry for whoever had to play these. i also feel sorry or the creator this is a huge black mark on your record, no one would hire you.
Yeh, that is a pretty major problem alright. But I beg to differ at the phrase "it wouldn't be so bad" - I'm sure it would still suck some SERIOUS ass. XD
boooooooooring gameplay...ahhh just kiding this thing dont have a game play,infinite loadings(ohhh my god its a monster! dont worry just walk to another scene!),and the most important thing is the platform: the legendary philips cd-i(never see this thing om my life)
