  • all rise for the video game anthem

  • @AshelehsA so true...

  • This was the start of the world as far as I remember... the world did not exist before this.

  • and so it begins lol

  • CURSE YOU GANNON

  • If you need instructions on how to get through the dungeons, please look up the manual for details!

  • Legend of Zelda?, Screw That, Legend of Smosh!

  • Thumbs up if you noticed they spelled Rupee, "Rupy".

  • EPIC AS HELL

  • Wow..... CLASSIC WRITTEN ALL OVER It.

  • 7 people have no consoles

  • Overworld is better.

  • Who doesn't love this?

  • Beautifull, This reminds me of CLASSIC Gamin!!

  • Even back in its hayday, Zelda music is awesome and epic.

  • Do you recognize this music? Well duh.

    Why? Cuz it's the mutherfuckin' Legend of Zelda!

  • Oh, the engrish.

  • Before I realized an ad was playing before the video, I was wondering what lightsabers have to do with Zelda....

  • BEST...VIDEO GAME.....EVER!!!

  • The Beginning Of A Legend..... :D

  • Legend of Zelda? Screw that! The Legend of Link!

  • best intro song every.

  • Ganon makes 7 accounts to dislike that

  • Fuck World of Warcraft, fuck Skyrim. This was where it's at

  • @Ringwraith Those are RPGS, this is an action Adventure game with RPG elements.

  • @AvousYelmurc Actually it's a Rpg game with action adventure elements you have it the other way around but im sure of what I say been playing games for 20 years.

  • @AvousYelmurc I didn't mean like genres, I meant an awesome game doesn't need cutting edge graphics to be good, here is a perfect example

  • Ah, takes me back!

  • Stepladder FTW!

  • Not sure why there are any dislikes at all, the video is exactly what the title describes...were they expecting a blow job along with it?

  • song of the hero =D

  • Takes me back every time

  • Omg I remember when this came out.  I love playing Zelda

  • O memories, I remember when I had my gold cart and put the game in for the first time and was blown away with awesomeness

  • they spelt ropie wrong and so did i

  • First campaign I ever beat.

  • i dont need a manual

  • Original legend of zelda > New legend of zelda games.

  • @howardcjones Wrong.

  • *240p.

  • when u get my age and you remember playing these games on the good old nes with people who are now dead they had extra meeting all us kids huddled in my garage freezing our balls off playing tysons punch out excitebike zelda in the 1980s those were the days there was no web no help u were at the mercy of nintendo power and had the beat games on your own i beat this game during fall of my 4th grade even now looking back it is an amazing game that has a creepy feeling peace

  • @mikekenpo233 extra meaning is what i meant to say the first zelda has a really creepy old feeling about it much like kid icarus did there was something magicial about the nes il never forget them days when games were 2d drawn artwork and a real challenge long live nes

    

  • i need to get a nes and legend of zelda guys i have a n64 but they dont have a 8-biit zelda i think

  • i used this video to learn the theme on guitar \m/ \m/

  • Meh. Ocarina of Time was the best one. Like if you agree.

  • Tears are filling my eyes, but I didn't play this game

  • 240p for better sound :)

  • T_T como olvidarlo

  • The game that started it all

  • the legend of zelda is the best game ever! i hate how some people think C.o.D is better. I hate zelda haters.

  • That very first note when you first turn on the game... instant nostalgia every time

  • remember thinking...omg we can save our progress on the game????!!!!

  • 5 people are COD fans.

  • @rizziman33 What's wrong with that?? I'm a huge fan of CoD, but Iove The LoZ too..

  • @BKcheesytotsrule I'm talking about the people who play nothing BUT CoD.

  • I wasn't alive then, but to think that when one bought this at a video store back then, they didn't know what they had in their hands. And once they got home and opened up the box to see that special golden cartridge, and put it into their Nintendo, only to see the birth of the greatest franchise in video game history with this intro and amazing music. I just can't imagine the reaction on the kid's face once he knew, he had something special. Long live The Legend of Zelda!

  • Awesome music, awesome game. It almost brings tears to my eyes :)

  • @mrflyingbanan123

    So i barely found out the halo thing. But the m ratings seem to be lacking imagination ex final fantasy zelda gradius donkey kong cant compare to simply shooting someone or playing soccer ex the fifa series. seems like the fun in some games is exploring other worlds that gradually get harder imo. Which is a difference in new games vs pre 2000 games. cant argue that that the older ones do seem to have more taught/imagination

  • Im playing it on my Wii as we speak! Im struggling with this one part, but ill pull through eventually! After this ill be playing Zelda 2!

  • Fuck halo and all these m rated games nowadays

  • @manny42012 are you just going to judge a game based on it's rating? Halo is a game series. It's one of the only really big FPS's that has a really good story. I love LoZ, but i also love Halo. Call of Duty sucks though. Zelda undoubtedly beats COD

  • Did you ever notice that the entire Zelda sieries beats the entire super Mario seiries

  • 4 people without childhood

  • I used to close my eyes and listen to this over and over again when I was around 5....ahhhh memories

  • Zeeeelllldddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 240p for better quality

  • @Kazen14 I really don't understand how the "240p for HD" thing works.

    The sound of 360p and up is what I remember coming out of my TV.

  • @Gmanster64 That's probably because you had an absurdly good T.V. in 1989.

  • @Kazen14 You mad ? No ... You right !!!

  • @Kazen14 it's funny, cuz it's true

  • @Kazen14 the irony.

  • Brentalfloss

  • This game was my Mum's Babysitter for me ....lol

  • mases, you should remake your walkthrough for this game with this quality and the majora's mask format! that would be awesome :D

  • BEST GAME EVER

  • Zelda en cumbia

  • Modern games don't got shit on the old classics

  • 8 bit

  • It's funny because koji kondo composed this melody on a single days notice. He literally wrote this song the day before the game was finished being made.

  • @happyoldMEN unimaginable talent :/ that's crazy! I think this piece is genius

  • This video is why Youtube needs a replay button.

  • i am error

  • And to think, when i watched the "Treasure" list, i was totally excited just by watching some pixels LMAO

  • Sometimes I wish they kept his name as "Prince Darkness Gannon".

  • They should have a 720p version of this video, amirite?

  • I was 8 years old when this game came out and i remember it like yesterday.

  • And thus, a legend was born.

    25 years later and this intro still stands the test of time.

  • Thumbs up if you've got this on your Nintendo 3DS!

  • Major goose bumps: GO!

  • "look up the manual"? LOL

  • Good Times..... good times.....

  • I "think" this "music" is "awesome".

  • Looks HD. No joke.

  • When I was small, I thought it was so haunting and magical when the picture of the mountainside and waterfall became dark, just before the story was first told to me...

  • ahhh the nostalgia (:

  • Love this SO much better than the Famicom. The famicom is to 8-bit-y for me.

  • The Legend lives on...

  • Save the cheerleader, save the world. Wait, what?

  • This brings back memories.

  • RELM OF MEMORIES FTFW

  • ~~~~~~~~THE LEGEND OF ZELDA~~~~~~~~~

    MANY YEARS AGO PRINCE DARKNESS "GANNON"

    STOLE ONE OF THE TRIFORCE WITH POWER

    PRINCESS ZELDA HAD ONE OF THE TRIFORCE

    WITH WISDOM. SHE DIVIDED IT INTO 8 UNITS

    TO HIDE IT FROM "GANNON" BEFORE SHE

    WAS CAPTURED.

    GO FIND THE 8 UNITS " LINK "

    TO SAVE HER

  • @TVisawesome432 The 8 should be in quotation marks you did it rong!

  • @TVisawesome432 Epic

  • @TVisawesome432 That's all we need.

  • this music plays when chuck norris is driving to a mcdonalds

  • @thekoopakids Chuck Norris doesn't drive to mcdonalds, mcdonalds drives to him.

  • @krazy4games1 the entire world including mcdonalds drives to him

  • RESPECT !

  • Container heart?? rupy??? :O

  • first person version of the original zelda, kirby and pokemon would be so awesome

  • @nughaga these games wouldn't fit in the FP family. they are adventure games. i hate for example when they made resident evil (biohazard in japan) work like looking from the back isntead of all the funny camera angles that i am used to, same with zelda it won't work in fp

  • @myheadisbloody some people may find that true and i'd understand that, and i know what you mean about RE, but i think it actually may work on fp and it would be pretty cool.

  • @nughaga that could work. but we saw how "great" it did on wii. well.. to bad you couldn't controll yourself there. btw check out my chanell if you like fighting games. when iget a real gameing pc i'll record ssf4 matches : 3

  • @myheadisbloody hey, since you mensioned that, would you like to purchase a custom made intro song for your videos?

  • @nughaga : ) when my paypal stops fucking around ^_^

  • @myheadisbloody alright! just message me and keep in touch!

  • @nughaga whats your favourite fighting game pick 2. mine are street fighter 2 and melty blood act cadenza

  • @myheadisbloody well, if you'd consider pokemon a fighting game, that was a classic (the yellow version)

    if not..

    1. team fortress 2

    2. the conduit

  • @nughaga pokemon isa rpg game : ) 

  • Thanks for posting I love this intro reminds me of the first time I played ZELDA the story that became a legend

  • Ambassador Program :)

    

  • Best Zelda ever!!

  • Hell yeah! The 3DS version uses the Engrish of the original! I love it already! 

  • I love that I could download The legend of zelda 1 on my 3DS today <3 god bless ambassador programme <3

  • HOLD ON! There is one small plot hole if Zelda broke up the triforce of wisdom and hid them why the hell did she leave those big boss monsters to guard them. And if those monsters work for Ganon why did he not simply have them steal the pieces for him for crying out loud.

  • @mrfivegold

    Because in the NES era plot wasn't important.

  • @SuperHapa I am not saying its unimportant its just makes me think how smart is this great Ganon anywho I mean canonically speaking he seemed to get Dumber with each incarnation passed Orcarina of Time.

  • la musika de la vercion de eu es mejor que la del famicom

  • I think their should be a purple lantern.

  • >o< i like this song is the first if u are a gamer u like this :D

  • engrish everywhere

  • Grumble....Grumble

  • FOOD

  • The game.... that started it all.

    Can't wait to get this on my 3DS on Sept. 1st.

  • @TVisawesome432 your ambassador too?

  • @jason123456789210 Did you get the notification?

  • @jason123456789210 Well yes, everyone 3DS owner b4 the price drop got it

  • @TVisawesome432 i got mine in april

  • @jason123456789210 I got mine sometime early this month bcuz i got my 3DS on july 24

  • @TVisawesome432 got mine in july cuz i got mine april

  • @TVisawesome432 I have been debating to get Ocarina and a 3DS recently cause I am thinking of saving up for a Rosetta Stone. Recently due to many Zelda influences, I have been leaning towards Zelda.

  • @DJVAN3 Okay, but what I mean is that I'm getting this on the eShop VC in Sept. 1st thanks to the Ambassador program

  • I Pledge Allegiance to the Triforce of the magical world of Hyrule,

    and to the Master Sword on which it stands, One Temple under the Goddesses,

    With Power, Wisdom , and Courage for all. And yes it took me 2 mintues to come up with this

  • @MegamanWily This game would surely be classed as abandonware by now, considering it was released well over a decade ago. That means that it's essentially public domain, and I highly doubt releasing videos of it on YouTube is "piracy and illegal". I'd be careful if I were you about pointing the dumbass finger at people without knowing the facts.

  • @archmage84 Zelda is certainly not Abandonware. Just because it was made a long time ago a game doesn't automatically become abandonware.

  • @KingLofiOne Do you think Nintendo would follow through with a lawsuit on a 1993 game, though? Perhaps it isn't abandonware. I figured since Zork was, Zelda had a good chance of being abandonware. Regardless, I doubt it's a dangerous act to post videos of Zelda on YouTube.

  • rupy

  • @Syntachu Dude learn your Zelda!! The Master Sword wasn't concieved until A Link to the Past! Epona wasn't invented until Ocarina of Time! Zeldadungeon never said OoT was the first game. Btw Zeldadungeon is one of the leading Zelda fan sites. If you seriously think this is a failure then wake up and smell the coffee!!!

  • When I was like five or six, I watched my dad beat this game. It was one of the most epic things I've ever seen.
