Even to this day the title remains a cult-classic in the Zelda series, often considered the standard by which to judge all portable outings. Playing the game on Game Boy hardware back then was stunning to say the least, as nobody realized that the handheld was capable of such things.
Although the GB's hardware was lesser than that of the NES, the graphics, gameplay and story of this one actually aligned with the SNES' Link To The Past. Link's Awakening was released for the Game Boy in 1993, and was a total revelation. This means that some of us (me) who don't have local gamer friends with their own GBA's and copies of the game never got the chance to delve in to this one. Sadly unlike its GameCube sequel, there's no single-player campaign on the GBA game. It recycled sprites from Link To The Past which was welcome artistically, but it was also somewhat of a burden to play. The GBA re-release is also notable for including a bonus game, the brand new Four Swords which would be the first multi-player Zelda game. They aren't nearly as overdone as in the GBA port of Super Mario Bros. It looks fantastic on a GBA SP screen, although suffers slightly from a few oddly annoying voice samples that were added to the re-release. So I'm totally biased when I say that everybody should own this game either in its original SNES form, or here on the GBA. The GBA port is wonderfully faithful to the original, and considering it's probably the cheapest GB-related Zelda game to find in the wild, it's worth giving it a go even if you don't remember loving it the first time.Ī Link To The Past is my favorite game ever. There's a very unique and daring quest within.
At the time the first game was impossible to find in local toy stores, so this was my introduction to the series. I got it for my birthday soon after its release. The truth is, Adventure Of Link was actually my first Zelda game. Though for all the flack it receives, I'm a longtime fan of this one. Strange considering the phrase "black sheep" being almost synonymous with the game. Surprisingly the sequel Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link also made it to the Classic NES line. All GBA enthusiasts should have this one. The GBA port is excellent and cheap-n-easy to find on the after market. It basically created an entire genre that meshed action with elements of role playing. The game is of course not only a high-point of the NES, but of gaming in general. The Legend Of Zelda was re-released as part of the Game Boy Advance's Classic NES series. So let's take a look at all those Zelda games that found their way to a Game Boy handheld. Seeing as how the blog started as a way to showcase lesser known Game Boy carts, it should be noted that my purchase of the Nintendo Game Boy Player attachment for the GameCube was based almost solely on the fact that doing so would suddenly mean that there were a pile of Zelda games that I could play on my TV.

But the series is certainly important to me. Or rather, I just got sidetracked and forgot to get around to it until now. So I figured I'd wait for the celebration to die down and then get into it here. And because of this every single retro-gaming related website ran a bunch of features related to the series. Last month The Legend Of Zelda turned 25.
