Zelda II The Adventure Of Link - All Bosses, Part 1 of 2 (VHS Capture Version)
Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link - All Bosses, Part 1 of 2 (VHS Capture Version).
This is a rundown of all the boss fights in Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link.
The boss title picture screens were all captured and edited by myself using a Zelda II ROM image and emulator (And since I have both the Discovery & History Channels, and I've seen their prison documentaries, I won't mention anything else on which software was used to do all this :) ).
Some key notes to remember:
This was done around 2004 and was intended to be used as a walkthrough aid, which is why a lot of the boss fights are somewhat drawn out and different techniques and Magic spells used. I also give the viewer (That's YOU!) a good sense of what different boss hits will do (i.e.: How far Link flies when nailed with a mace).
All done on the original NES. Feel the nostalgicness of it all.
0:18 - 1:28: The original 1987 opening. Dig that warped sound of the video tape.
1:29 - 3:40: Random boss @$$ kicking. No recording delay here!
3:41 - 3:51: After I de-horsed the Blue Ironknuckle, I decided to go after his steed to see what it would do. I didn't realize that I had already dealt the coup de grace, so when I "made contact" with the floating beast, the Blue Ironknuckle started to blow up. That is why there is a cut in the video here (Link unnaturally moves to the left, closer to the key); this is because I had paused the tape to review what I had done.
3:51 - 4:44: More bosses biting it.
4:45 - 4:50: I like the last hit on Carock here. It looks like Link kicks the last magic bolt back at him.
4:51 - 5:45: More bosses eating it.
5:46 - 5:51: My (Inadvertent) tribute to Michael Jackson.
5:52 - 6:44: Pwnage.
6:45 - 6:47: The first key catch! I love doing that!
6:48 - END: Cross acquisition, more dead bosses, another key catch, and a slain dragon.

How do you have all of the powerups and levels??

@Azerthus I had previously beaten the game on the file I used to make this recording. When you beat the game, it lets you keep your sword techniques, magic spells, and Attack/Magic/Life levels (At least those levels attained when the game was beaten, hence the level 7 Attack/Magic at the beginning of the video).
The only things that reset are Magic/Heart containers and items/weapons found in the palaces.
Thanks for dropping by and commenting!
