Obviously, different than all the other Zelda games… also extremely frustrating.

User Rating: 6 | Zelda II: The Adventure of Link NES
I had not played this game since I was a kid on NES. I was able to beat it then and I downloaded on the VC and just recently started playing it. I must have been extremely patient as a child because this game is really frustrating now. What amazes me is when I was a kid I did not have a walk-through, I just played it. The game isn't all bad so here are the reasons I like it and don't like it.

Don't like it:
*The three life system stinks, all the way back to the beginning are you kidding me.
*The puzzle elements of the other Zelda games are completely missing.
*When you use up your lives, your experience points start over.

Like about it:
*I really do like how they incorporated side scrolling action into the game.
*The story and music are great.
*Nostalgia, I remember anticipating the release of this game as a kid.

It definitely my least favorite Zelda game but not as bad some people would lead you to believe.
