I played it recently on a SNES classics collection and had my kids give it a go, and I'm just blown away that it still holds up. This is a great game, even thirty years later.
I wasn't bright enough to finish this game back when it first came out, but replayed on the retro SNES system recently, and it absolutely still holds up! My kid loved it too, and is now a huge Zelda fan!
this game is still & always will be my all time favorite Zelda game. The Chris Houlihan room.............back in the day before internet i accidently got in there wondering what its purpose was, was happy for the rupees but didn't even know who or what was Chris Houlihan lol
When I was 7 I got a SNES with f-zero and mario world. I played both and loved them but link changed the game. This was the first Zelda I had played. Seeing the progression. The light leveling. The story. Showed me how a video game could be as a new form of art. Been gaming ever since
My first Zelda game and one of the best! I borrowed my friend's SNES just to play it! Then bought a second hand SNES and Zelda to play it again! Played it on the Game Boy Advance, then on the Switch. Also, great video!!! Love your channel
2:32 512 kilobytes is way more than 1 megabit. I think you meant to say megabyte insteadof megabit. 1 megabyte is 1000 kilobytes. 1 megabit is only 125 kilobytes.
The best thing I ever did was to defeat the Dark World dungeon #4 soon after arriving in Dark World (after clearing Dark World dungeon #1, take the Titan Mitt upgrade, talk to the blacksmith in the ghost village to upgrade the Master Sword to level 3 (orange) and proceed to tear the assholes of dungeon 2 and 3 bosses with it.
If you get the unique items first before beating the bosses, you can complete dungeons 5+6 first, get the mega bomb, blow a hole in the pyramid and talk to the giant fairy. She will give you the silver arrows. You can actually fight the first boss with the silver arrows and when its mask is broken you can shoot a silver arrow at the gem in its forehead and will instantly kill it.
Fun fact- this is the only Zelda game where you can infinitely defeat Ganon without resetting the game. After you defeat Ganon, you can still fall off the ledge. Then you are back in the lower part of the pyramid, and you go outside to exit. When you fall back in the pyramid, the fight with Ganon resets and you have to beat him again.
But they are connected. That’s like saying why do players keep calling the main monster Ganon. Why do they have to name the monsters? In which case I would respond with his name is Ganon. The games are connected. Wind waker happens as a result of what happened in oot. That’s not a choice. It’s an actual plot point.
i still don't know exactly why. But I loved the Gameboy Zelda DX while I always got bored halfway through Zelda SNES. I don't ever recall finishing it.
1 megabyte = legendary game that’s as good today as it was when it came out. Modern AAA game = 100+ GB, buggy as hell and requires many updates to fix and has little to no replayability.
It was my least favorite Zelda game, but still excellent. Probably because I never had an SNES as a kid, and didn't play it until I was an adult. Also 12:33, "more than 4.26 copies" isn't very much at all.

My butt reeks

This game blew my mind at the time and it still holds up today!
It's incredible how well it holds up, even today. My favorite 2d Zelda game

I love the whole Zelda franchise but A Link to the Past is very special to me. Great video!
The Chris Houlihan room was known at the time. I remember reading about it in a Super Nintendo magazine from the UK, called Super Play.

11:42 - Link is fighting BTAS Clayface for some reason...
Christmas of 1992 was when I got my SNES and my copy of LTTP. To this day it's still my favorite Zelda game and my favorite SNES game.
The first time I played this game, I felt like I had discovered a new dimension
I was 9 years old when this game came out. Still my favorite Zelda game of all time.

The story about what happened to Link after the events is literally the definition of a sequel Miyamoto!

I always did 1, 4, and 5 as a kid

@@keithtorgersen9664 you can do the same with Arrrrrrghus after you clear the cheese ball thingies first

I’m always annoyed by those who try to fit a series into “timelines”. Sometimes a game is just a game, we don’t NEED them connect to each other.
But they are connected. That’s like saying why do players keep calling the main monster Ganon. Why do they have to name the monsters? In which case I would respond with his name is Ganon.

I really enjoy your content. Thank you for sharing.
I never actually beat this game but it does have phenomenal soundtrack
The game was 1 MByte, not 1 MBit. It's easy to confuse them 😅
Great video! Subscribed!
@8:30 what? Lol the Master Sword was in the Original Legend of Zelda, in the Graveyard.
Lttp is the best game ever made, I'll be taking no questions
Love the adds
The GOAT.
It was my least favorite Zelda game, but still excellent. Probably because I never had an SNES as a kid, and didn't play it until I was an adult.
Also 12:33, "more than 4.26 copies" isn't very much at all.
Super Metroid was 24 megs!
Probably the ONLY perfect video game if I'm being honest.
I have a copy of this game but it's too esoteric for me. Perhaps I'm too old school.
Bro slow down. You talk too fast to be able to smoothly immerse myself in this video.
turned on the video to hear Link's story, but instead listened to ten minutes of snes bullshit.
