Nintendo just put out a press release celebrating that come Monday the NA vc will have 100 titles with Zelda 2 coming out Monday.

Also of note was that 4.7 million downloads had taken place with 40% of the wii userbase having been online. Now in this case of downloads that means vc purchases since last figure giving out a few months ago put it at 3 million vc purchases with an average of 400-500 thousand vc purchases each month that 4.7 million figure is likely what the purchase total is at this moment.

The wii vc and online is kicking ass and taking names cheifly the xbox live arcade and PSN.

Zelda 2 is too tough from what I hear, but a good milestone for the VC.

Zelda II is one of those games you can only appreciate after you've beaten it, even though you'll never want to play it again.

The game itself doesnt suck, its just really hard.

Like Castlevania II and Mario 2, Zelda II took a step away from its precestor and went in a different direction.

It was all about trying something different. We see that in the third installment of all 3 mentioned titles, that they returned to a more familiar feel and look that the first ones had, but also improved on it.

I have alot of memories with Zelda 2: The Adventures of Link. I really played the heck out of it when I was a kid and although it was pretty hard, it was still fun. it took me awhile to beat it, but that was because I had to figure out everything on my own, without guides or anything. I played the game again on my original Nintendo a couple of weeks ago. I sometimes even hum the castle music while I am at work, lol. Good memories.

It's one of my favorite games.  Now all I need is SMB2 and SMB3.

Haha LoZ:AoL is an awesome game. Sure, it's wicked hard. But it's wicked fun, too - especially when you replay it once you've finally beat it. Also, if memory serves me correctly, this is the game which gives birth to the downward thrust - one of Link's (sometimes over-used) moves in SSBM.

I AM ERROR!

I didn't really like Zelda 2 that much, it wasn't the same Zelda that we know, and it was tough too, nice milestone though.

im not impressed. the game was tough and i beat it back a couple years ago. fun, but it doesn't have too much replay value.  furthermore, this game is AVAILABLE on the GC Zelda Collectors Edition disc...which is quite widely available in many ebgames ive seen. 

how 'bout a n64 game nintendo? well now u owe us 2 n64 games...cause we didn't get one last month.  we should be getting 2 on monday. 

and what about some of the greater classics...dk64, mario kart and super mario kart, smb2 and 3, smb all stars, metroid, earth bound, diidy kong racing, maybe vigilante 8 (n64) , mega man, chrono tiger, starfox, turtles in time, mortal kombat.  sadly..i doubt nintendo will release any of these great games..b/c as it turns out...vc seems to be all about turbo graphics games..mostly.

Yeah Zelda 2 is by far the worst in the series. It's the only Zelda game I would consider to be 'crap'.

Too everyone saying the adventures of link sucks. Finish the game first. It is amazing in its own way. Better than part 1 in my opinion.

You can't have played the CD-i Zelda games then.

Also, to restate, LoZ:AoL is a good game. Some people claim to dislike it because it was too hard, yet now people are claiming LoZ games are too easy. Maybe those who thought Twilight Princess was too easy should pick Adventure of Link up and enjoy the challenge.

Haha, you beat me to it. Zelda II wasn't the only side-scrolling Zelda, but most people don't realize that.
