    Ignore the bad comments, it's definitly worth playing.

    Links Adventure has always been regarded as 'The Black Sheep' of the sterlling Zelda series, mainly because of it's changeup in gameplay style. Instead of the top down view of the origional Legend of Zelda, Nintendo opte... Read Full Review

    One of the best in the series! A great challenge for any gamer!

    This is the first Zelda game in the series that Nintendo featured a side- scrolling form of game play. That idea wasnt bad. You play as Link by overhead while he's in the over world, and it switches to the side-scrolling... Read Full Review

    One of the wrost old-school games. Ever.

    I really didn't play this game for too long, and I quit as soon as I realized that they gave me no plot at all. You begin in a room with Zelda laying in a bed. So we get it, she is asleep. Normally, I would think that Ni... Read Full Review

    Fairly amusing but disappointing in ways.

    The gameplay is quite different from other zelda game made. The controls are hard to adapt to, because it is hard to fight enemies at times, and getting levels up just does not make it seem like a real zelda game. Th... Read Full Review

    Great - if you know what you're getting.

    Like I said in my review for "Classic NES Series: Metroid", I can't understand why people that know full well going in that they're buying a 20 year old video game still complain that it doesn't hold up to today's standa... Read Full Review

    A Zelda RPG a superb idea! If only one was eventually made in A Link to The Past Graphics...

    The first Zelda RPG. For a NES game this definitely ranks among the top. Compared to today's gaming I gave it a 6.7 which is probably average. The game presents a challenge, isn't too short and the controllers are not ex... Read Full Review
