Kinda sad, how the first two games are so low, while Skyward Sword is so high on the poll just because it's new.

I've done a swordless run of LoZ Second Quest except for the last dungeon (dungeon 9). You have to find hidden rupee locations, buy thr candle, get bombs, and basically grind for rupees until you can buy the blue ring, maical shield, etc. From there the idea is to finish level one (easy) get the...

At the time even the developers weren't sure what the future of the Zelda series was. However, as a Mario fan, I like the side-scrolling aspect. It's still a Zelda game, for sure though. This has to be one of the best-designed side-scrollers ever, because it's quite expansive though linear in...

But did you do it without help from the internet? Back in 1986, they didn't have the internet. But if you get that far without any walkthroughs in three hours, you are a Zelda LEGEND! However, the sixth dungeon is really hard. I think it's the hardest one in the game, even harder than...

Yeah, blue wizzrobes are incredibly difficult. And you don't want to be too aggressive, just make sure they never face you so they won't shoot beams at you, and hit them when you get a chance, and keep moving! You must have a magical shield to fight them. And use bombs if you have them. Orange...

It's hard, but mostly at the beginning. My first playing of the game I had 33 game overs. That's 99 lives. But now I can do it in less than three, hopefully none my current run. But if you can beat the first palace, you're good to go the rest of the game if you level up right. I think I am...

Go as quickly as you can through the Valley of Death.;) Otherwise, use Shield+Jump and beat all the Moas (think that's what they're called) before you make a jump. That's important.

I've beaten this game maybe six times now, I love it! Actually I find the difficulty spike to be at the very beginning, and from there it's OK if you level up right. I think the game developers assumed you would be wandering around a lot, trying to find dungeons/items and you would level up a...

I found Zelda 1 a lot harder, because the dungeons/items are very difficult to find without a walkthrough! The difficulty in Zelda 2 is great, it's better the game be challenging than too easy, like the newer Mario/Zelda games. Zelda 2 is much more linear in style, but I think they did a good...

The second quest was fun, better than the first quest! I did have to resort to a map to find the location of the eighth dungeon, but I went through the dungeons on my own. There is a steep learning curve in the second quest, I think though. Later I went back and did a swordless run of the...

That's what I've heard, that Ironknuckles are just mechanized suits of armor. I've always thought of them and darknuts as kind of the same though.

Anyone tried just walking torwards Dark Link, stabbing your sword as fast as possible? I can beat him this way, no jumping or ducking! When I first got to Thunderbird and Dark Link I saved a state and just went back and practiced until I was really good at it.

I've finished both the first and second Zelda games, first and second quest, and Zelda 2 is probably my favorite. I can't tell you how long it took me to beat the first Ironknuckle in Parapa palace. Then, even more game overs to beat Horsehead. But after that you begin to level up and, though...
