Nowadays A Link to the Past looks so simple but we all know that the atmosphere, the songs, all the feelings involved in this game turns it bigger than it was expected to be
@@-xnnybimb-9398 I was there dude!!! Still have original system. Back then we didn’t have Internet. We had an 800 number to call when we’d get stuck in a castle. Cheat sheet if you will lol
Thank you so much for this. I lost my brother at the beginning of this year and we used to play this together (together as in I would watch amazed as he would conquer all the bosses :D). This helps to ease the pain.
I played this with my brother too.. we were 12 or 13.. 30 yrs ago - its great that u have this ❤ it makes me think of my sibling wen I play too.. although wen it came to the baddies he passed it to me 🤣
I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost someone very important to me too recently and reconnecting with the Zelda franchise makes me feel like a kid again. Reliving better times.
I still play this game. I'm 40 years old and I still play it bc one it brings back memories of my mom and uncle trying to play it. Also there are so many ways you can play and it never gets old. Also it helps me unwind and forget about reality
@@paulgreaves3131 what? The fact I still play or that I'm 64 & still play? Zelda (rpg's) were always my favorite games. I could actually complete them. I have also completed BOTW on switch. I'm replaying the older games for nostalgia! I love it!!! 😏😜
Such a big W. I'm only 20. I grew up playing Zelda on a Gameboy handheld. Especially when I was around 7-8 years old. It was my very first video game. While other kids played call of duty and other popular Nintendo games, I had this. & I wouldn't have it any other way tbh. I love this game so much. I have replayed it 3 times and I think I'll do it again soon :))

My brother and I would play this with my Mom at her house back in 1991. I was 21 years old then. Mom is gone now. Thanks for posting this. It brings back pleasant memories.
I'm 78 years old and I played this with my youngest granddaughter when she was a kid. She's now 33years old. I still have the original version but not the console for it. I'm sti!I hope to find one. This is my all time favorite!! Thanks for sharing!
Man, this game brings back such memories. It's hard to believe that soon this game will be 30 years old. This, F-Zero, Super Mario World, Pilotwings, Actraiser, Lemmings...man the SNES was unreal back in the day. I am STILL impressed with the graphics and sound of this system! That's how well it's held up! Give me 16 bit 2D games ALL DAY over anything that has come out since! By far the most FUN and PLAYABLE games! =)
I can't believe that after all these years I've only now recognised the fact that there's only one bed in the house that Link shares with his Uncle.. And that's just terrifying. _.
Lol same. This was my first Zelda game when I was eight, never finished it cause I bought it used and the person before already beat it and had a saved game still.

I'm so happy that I grew up with games of this calibre. I got LTTP for Xmas 1992 and spent most of that school holidays playing through it a few times. I was 12 at the time and I'd only stop playing for food, sleep or football. Almost a flawless game. The visuals, the music, the characters, the weapons, the bosses, the seemingly endless things to do. Just a sublime game.
Im sure it was expensive a gift at the time I would think it would have been around 50-60 dollars at launch price must have been a very happy child at Christmas kids these days have no idea what it was like growing up in the 80s and 90s
i remember coming home from school and jumping right in bed to play this game instead off doing my homework. it feels great to go back in time and look at great things of our past !
1:29:21 This scene... the desolating sound effect of the wind, the last line Sahasralah says, the sword pose, culminating with the commencement of the BGM was just so well-choreographed. It really evokes of THIS IS IT, NO TURNING BACK, I'M THE LAST HOPE feeling.
the gameplay is somehow locked in the recesses of my mind, when i used to go to blockbuster and rent it and it even came with the instruction booklet. I often go back to my snes console and play my old games for nostalgia purposes, when life was easier and i had nothing to worry about. I long to reconnect with those times. I know I will never experience that lifestyle again, but i at least still have those memories.
Youl never get another game as good as this... No Zelda before or after has ever came close to being this good.. I absolutely love this game.. I can never forget the joy this game gave to me
One of the best Zelda games i ever played. Beautiful in all ways. I finish it in an emulator. I never owned a SNES. But i will treasure every moment of my game played. Thanks for the video. Brings me good memories.
4:58 The Hyrule Castle music will forever be the iconic Zelda theme for me. I also love that you can still hear the rain falling outside while on these floors of the castle. So immersive back then. It's impossible for me to choose a favorite Zelda game between this Ocarina of time. These were truly special times in my life.
Love this game. Lost my mom back in Nov and it was one of her favorites. She would let us watch while she played, wish I could watch her play it once one😔
I just started playing this again today as it's included in the snes-mini with 20 other games. The last Zelda I played was Ocarina of time on the 64, one of the greatest games ever together with this one!
try getting yourself a SNES Classic. It's an amazing little machine and playing on Nintendo hardware just hits different. but beware of copies! (there are videos on youtube on what to look out for
none of those games even come close as you said. the simplicity and complexity of this game were light years ahead. its an adventure full of heroism. a true masterpiece.
I loved OoT (the last Zelda game I ever played). For me, it’s one hell of a toss-up between LttP and OoT for the title of “best” Zelda game. They were both amazing.
@@PeteyThePanda I couldn't compare. The simplicity of Majora's Mask with the utter depth and hammering down of its themes is just something that I haven't seen ever again. Such a bold and effective to way to tell a story. I personally can't even say which I like more - OoT, MM, WW, TP. All of these are phenomenal games. I can't really compare them to the 2D Zeldas honestly but A Link to the Past is a masterpiece of simplicity. Minish Cap is severly underrated too. IDK. Zelda just knows what's up. No need to rank them. Like I don't really like Breath of the Wild but there is no denying that both are fantastic games as well. It just depends on ones preferences, ultimately. I guess my favorite is Twilight Princess but I understand the criticism that it is like the only Zelda that doesn't really bring something new to the table. But since I adore OoT, well, Twilight Princess is in many, if not all ways Ocarina of Time 2, only that its sound design is kicking more ass. Win to me. :)
@@njux1871 in Twilight Princess that Link kicks ass and isn't just a one move guy. Just like Zelda 2 where you can stab multiple areas- up down side- and it's a detailed gave not just another wanna be Zelda 1.
Thank you so much for this. I could never end this game just by myself. The first time I played I was 10 years old and I found it just beautiful, but I didn't have the game, so no time to played it enough to understand it. Now I am 33 and finally dedicated part of my time to play it and end it. A chapter of my childhood was finished today. And it was just beautiful
Love this game was 11 when this came out, first game I ever completed without any cheats or walk-throughs, true classic always love the very beginning when links in his house and you hear the rain beating against the house, you collect the lamp and go out side and it's tipping it down, thunder and lighting everywhere, so you go in the castle still the rain beats the castle, SNES sound effects were flipping awesome, no other console does thunder and and lighting sounds quite like the SNES, remember Bowsers music and thunder intro in super Mario world? ahh classic days!! There'll never be another era like the 16bit days.
I used to watch my son, who was barely more than a toddler, play this game for hours and hours, some of the happiest memories of his childhood, everything about it makes me happy
This was one of my first games, and I played this game a lot back when I was 8, and when I was 9, I beated the game, it took me 8 months. In 2023, Something remembered me about this game, and I installed it and started playing it, and I still remembered everything on the game, and beated the game one more time. Thanks for this game!
Ahhh, good times, great game. One of the first games I got for the SNES (think in '92 if I remember correctly). Still arguably the best Zelda game out.
This game is so nostalgic, I remember playing this game when I was little and not knowing anything about link or the legend of Zelda and just playing it. The most distinct thing I remember about this game is that opening music. Brings back so many memories.
Favorite game of all time. This was the first game I ever beat on my own. My parents had just gotten me a super Nintendo and this game for Christmas one year and though it was a useless victory, the feeling of accomplishment I got when I beat it is one I have never forgotten. There's just something about it...
Without this game I wouldnt be where I am today. My brother gave me his SNES when I was 7 and I played this game day in and day out for a very long time. This and DOOM had me hardlined to the screen. I lost this game and the console when we moved and until the last year I hadn't gotten it back. This game has inspired me to learn game development and that is my most recent endeavor. It is going very well and I am thankful to this game for so many great memories. I hope you all can share in my love for this game. If anyone sees this tell me when was the first time you played this game.
This week is my first time. I'm 29 so I've played all post Oot. It's good but difficult, as were all games of the time. Just got to dark world. Using zelda dungeon as a guide.
@@kstreet7438 I am really excited for you! When you finish the game come back and let me know how it was. It gets really good :D my best advice is explore everything. There are things hidden where you least expect and things hidden where its too obvious to see.
@@CJEXP i must have played it around '99 or even later. I played it on gameboy first. I don't know why i was so late playing it on snes but i guess it was because i thought no game would anyways come even close to secret of mana. but zelda on snes is still one of its own. 1985 here.
the most beautiful game ever made !!! THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME BEAUTIFULL MEMORIES ABOUT MY CHILDHOOD ! I LIVE IN ALGERIA, WHEN I SEE THIS GAME 25 YEARS AFTER... I REMEMBER BEAUTIFULL MOMENTS....THANK YOU
I watched this whole thing, and it made me get my old Super Nintendo out so I could play this. I've not got it plugged up yet cause I was resting first and I need to clean/dust everything so I can put the game system on nice clean areas but yeah... lol I love this game, I'm 28 this year, birthday is July 31st 1987, this game came out when I was pretty little and I watched my dad and brother play it then I finally played, I was silly though, scared every time I got hurt and I threw the controller and would scream LMAO. My brother and dad never let me live that down, with nearly every game I played when I was a kid. Great memories watching this, and also I see a few things we never learned when we played so I'll be able to do all that cool stuff now, it's amazing how we continue learning things 20+ years later about something you thought you knew all about.
I understand man. I'm 36 born 79. just found longplays channel. this Friday I'm buying a snes & this game. I didn't even know I missed these games so much. lol
Yep, we were definitely playing video games--especially LoZ. I'm a 27 yo woman, and I just replayed the Second Quest on LoZ for NES. Hadn't played that game in sooooo long.
My preteen life summed up in a little over 4 hours. Thankyou for posting this. I remember being in like 6th grade and thinking on ways to beat it. Being at hockey practice thinking how. Chicago winters were so long and cold. This was my go to
As a kid I enjoyed this game and beat it many times. Only thing that freaked me out are / were these black bottomless pits. They kind of always looked like out of place. As the game moved on, the game looked a lot more freaky than what it should have (for example, like in 4:12:23 and such).
When i figured out that there are land mines and soldiers hiding in them, I used the charging dash almost on a regular basis for "landscaping". Lawnmower on coke Link, go!!
This game took me forever to beat as a child lol. This game really was an adventure! Finding all the cool hidden passageways, secret areas was sooo much fun! Growing up with my Original NES, then later we got the awesome SNES Super Nintendo! Thank You for this! OH!!! The Childhood Nostalgia Memories. 👦😍
Wow!! Talk about nostalgia!! I was fortunate enough to have rented for me an SNES from Blockbuster Video back in the day and was looking for a copy of the then just released Street Fighter II to play with it. Of course they were all rented out. I loved just about anything Zelda (even the cartoon series) and had already beaten Zelda 2 on NES so I rented this beauty. I instantly fell in love. I played it until I had to return it. Soon after my parents bought me an SNES and guess what game I chose. That time I played it until I finished it. I still remember the insane sense of accomplishment I felt completing such a challenging game. And from reading the posts here, my feelings were well deserved as not many people have done this as adults, let alone as a teen. This game is without a doubt one of the best SNES games ever made and arguably one of the best games of all time!! Thank you so much for being such an amazing Zelda player and allowing us to re-live this masterpiece with you!!
I don't know what kind of graphics is "the best", but I do feel it's more pleasurable to play a game like Zelda or Metroid instead of a game like God of War.
Hands down the best Zelda game ever made! The music, weapons, map, story to this day still stand the test of time! Also don’t forget the hammer let’s you “POUND” other things
I remember when a school acquaintance handed me this gem. It was my first love of RPGs the younger me was instantly smitten & I still am today. I never thought in my wildest dreams that it would have a deeper meaning but there we are. Watching the entire upload! Thank you for this! Reminiscing... Should of called it a link to the past. Links awakening lol
Esse jogo possui uma das aberturas mais alucinantes e fortes da historia dos jogos. É chocantemente direto ao ponto quando comparado à maioria dos jogos, que costumam abrir a historia com um ritmo mais lento. A link to the past simplesmente te da o escudo e a espada e te bota na pancadaria em menos de 3 min de jogo. A trilha sonora é uma obra prima que se mantém presente na franquia ate hoje. Meu jogo favorito de zelda é OoT, mas é inegavel o impacto desse jogo na historia da franquia. OOT nao existiria sem a Link to the Past, pois muito que ha em OOT foi fortemente inspirado nesse.
This is my favorite video game of all time. I still play this one every once in a while, and I try to make it so that the number of plays at the end of the game reads zero.
It means that because you played the game all the way through without saving, you have no saved games, and the number of played games at the end of the game reads zero.
One time my dad was playing a file and somehow it glitched out and went to 999 games. I've never replicated that since nor heard of it happening to anybody else so far.
I recently found my Super Nintendo in storage. I can’t find my games, but I’m going to buy them online. The nostalgia is palpable. Thanks for this. 😭 ❤️

1:29:21 This scene... the desolating sound effect of the wind, the last line Sahasralah says, the sword pose, culminating with the commencement of the BGM was just so well-choreographed. It really evokes of THIS IS IT, NO TURNING BACK, I'M THE LAST HOPE feeling.
Still love the sound of EVERY song on every board...whomever wrote the score is a bonafide genius!
Koji Kondo wrote all the music for this game I think. It’s fantastic isn’t it?
the gameplay is somehow locked in the recesses of my mind, when i used to go to blockbuster and rent it and it even came with the instruction booklet. I often go back to my snes console and play my old games for nostalgia purposes, when life was easier and i had nothing to worry about. I long to reconnect with those times. I know I will never experience that lifestyle again, but i at least still have those memories.
This game is such a pure masterpiece. I could play it forever.
Youl never get another game as good as this... No Zelda before or after has ever came close to being this good.. I absolutely love this game.. I can never forget the joy this game gave to me
One of the best Zelda games i ever played.
Beautiful in all ways.
I finish it in an emulator. I never owned a SNES.
But i will treasure every moment of my game played.
Thanks for the video. Brings me good memories.
4:58 The Hyrule Castle music will forever be the iconic Zelda theme for me. I also love that you can still hear the rain falling outside while on these floors of the castle. So immersive back then. It's impossible for me to choose a favorite Zelda game between this Ocarina of time. These were truly special times in my life.
This is one of those old games that deserves every piece of praise it gets, and isn't the least bit "overrated" at all.
Especially for it’s time, this game was amazing. The tiniest details like stair walking etc. amazing game.
I get Goosebumps when I see the opening because you know it is going to be a great game.
No it was boring I quit immediately
@@victormezynski9727 No one asked you. This game is a legendary classic.
@@victormezynski9727 Okay boy, go play your Fortnite and let the men of culture enjoy this amazing game
@@pedroalves3161 fortnite is trash. also it was boring for me
@@victormezynski9727 Yo, did you smell that? It smells like...
a "BAIT COMMENT"
My brother and I were obsessed with this game when we were kids
Best Zelda game ever this was ahead of its time and what a legendary adventure i can play and enjoy this game over and over
I still can't believe that this game existed because link lost to ganondorf in ocarina of time.
Last best Zelda game I ever played was Skyward Sword on Wii, I would really play a link to the past SNES any day!
Love this game. Lost my mom back in Nov and it was one of her favorites. She would let us watch while she played, wish I could watch her play it once one😔
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you had a cool mom.
I just started playing this again today as it's included in the snes-mini with 20 other games. The last Zelda I played was Ocarina of time on the 64, one of the greatest games ever together with this one!
I COULD PLAY THIS GAME OVER AND OVER AGAIN LOL!
I am playing it now
MARK WELLS I did... for years... and years... and years...
Still playing it.
Just beat today after giving up on it wen i was young . i was born dec12th 1987 i just turned 31 and this came out 91 92 . very happy rite now
i still do
the best SNES game, and one of the best games of the saga of The Legend of Zelda, along with Ocarina of Tme.
Agreed. A Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time are masterpieces.
Totally agree
Ocarina of Time is too overrated, A Link to the Past is the BEST Zelda game ever.
It's say Majora Mask is better than those two
And Twilight Princess and Mimish Cap.
That message from Zelda in the beginning..no music, dark, just the rain..goosebumps
My very first childhood game ever played, I never beat it but I think it's time I revisit this masterpiece and beat it lol so many good memories.
try getting yourself a SNES Classic. It's an amazing little machine and playing on Nintendo hardware just hits different. but beware of copies! (there are videos on youtube on what to look out for
i just use nintendo online to play it
I still have this on snes and I'm so grateful that it works every single time still. This really is one of the best games ever, not just best on snes
I will never tire of this masterpiece, I love it. my favorite Zelda game of all time.
To me still the greatest Zelda game ever. No Ocarina of Time, no Wind Waker, no Breath of the Wild comes even close to this masterpiece.
none of those games even come close as you said. the simplicity and complexity of this game were light years ahead. its an adventure full of heroism. a true masterpiece.
I loved OoT (the last Zelda game I ever played). For me, it’s one hell of a toss-up between LttP and OoT for the title of “best” Zelda game. They were both amazing.
@@PeteyThePanda I couldn't compare. The simplicity of Majora's Mask with the utter depth and hammering down of its themes is just something that I haven't seen ever again. Such a bold and effective to way to tell a story.
I personally can't even say which I like more - OoT, MM, WW, TP. All of these are phenomenal games. I can't really compare them to the 2D Zeldas honestly but A Link to the Past is a masterpiece of simplicity. Minish Cap is severly underrated too. IDK. Zelda just knows what's up. No need to rank them. Like I don't really like Breath of the Wild but there is no denying that both are fantastic games as well. It just depends on ones preferences, ultimately.
I guess my favorite is Twilight Princess but I understand the criticism that it is like the only Zelda that doesn't really bring something new to the table. But since I adore OoT, well, Twilight Princess is in many, if not all ways Ocarina of Time 2, only that its sound design is kicking more ass. Win to me. :)
@@njux1871 For me is easily pTwilight tPrincess, Wind Waker, Link between Worlds, Mask, Ocarina, Zelda 2, and Zelda 1.. then this.
@@njux1871 in Twilight Princess that Link kicks ass and isn't just a one move guy. Just like Zelda 2 where you can stab multiple areas- up down side- and it's a detailed gave not just another wanna be Zelda 1.
Thank you so much for this. I could never end this game just by myself.
The first time I played I was 10 years old and I found it just beautiful, but I didn't have the game, so no time to played it enough to understand it.
Now I am 33 and finally dedicated part of my time to play it and end it. A chapter of my childhood was finished today. And it was just beautiful
the nostalgia! i remember being sick as a child and sitting up late at night with my stepdad playing this game. one of my dearest memories =')
This was the very first video game I ever played. Ahh what great memories.
What a game this was, hearing the sound effects really brings back memories
Love this game was 11 when this came out, first game I ever completed without any cheats or walk-throughs, true classic always love the very beginning when links in his house and you hear the rain beating against the house, you collect the lamp and go out side and it's tipping it down, thunder and lighting everywhere, so you go in the castle still the rain beats the castle, SNES sound effects were flipping awesome, no other console does thunder and and lighting sounds quite like the SNES, remember Bowsers music and thunder intro in super Mario world? ahh classic days!! There'll never be another era like the 16bit days.
I used to watch my son, who was barely more than a toddler, play this game for hours and hours, some of the happiest memories of his childhood, everything about it makes me happy
This was one of my first games, and I played this game a lot back when I was 8, and when I was 9, I beated the game, it took me 8 months. In 2023, Something remembered me about this game, and I installed it and started playing it, and I still remembered everything on the game, and beated the game one more time. Thanks for this game!
Ahhh, good times, great game. One of the first games I got for the SNES (think in '92 if I remember correctly). Still arguably the best Zelda game out.
Totaly Agree
No 2D Zelda game can ever be considers the best.
when were you born?
Sorry TC, should of addressed it better, My comment was aimed at sleepy. But totally agree with you on Link to the past being the best.
Definitely the Best one. Even though the first is great for the one that opened the doors.
This game is so nostalgic, I remember playing this game when I was little and not knowing anything about link or the legend of Zelda and just playing it. The most distinct thing I remember about this game is that opening music. Brings back so many memories.
nowadays they focus too much on graphics, they need to put more attention on story line, and music
and of course gameplay
diornotwar123 Yes, graphics are overrated
This game had amazing graphics for a 1991 game. Even today, they are not a pain to look at.
Bill combre what about it
Like Breath of the Wild now has :D
Favorite game of all time. This was the first game I ever beat on my own. My parents had just gotten me a super Nintendo and this game for Christmas one year and though it was a useless victory, the feeling of accomplishment I got when I beat it is one I have never forgotten. There's just something about it...
Without this game I wouldnt be where I am today. My brother gave me his SNES when I was 7 and I played this game day in and day out for a very long time. This and DOOM had me hardlined to the screen. I lost this game and the console when we moved and until the last year I hadn't gotten it back. This game has inspired me to learn game development and that is my most recent endeavor. It is going very well and I am thankful to this game for so many great memories. I hope you all can share in my love for this game. If anyone sees this tell me when was the first time you played this game.
This week is my first time. I'm 29 so I've played all post Oot. It's good but difficult, as were all games of the time.
Just got to dark world. Using zelda dungeon as a guide.
@@kstreet7438 I am really excited for you! When you finish the game come back and let me know how it was. It gets really good :D my best advice is explore everything. There are things hidden where you least expect and things hidden where its too obvious to see.
@@CJEXP i must have played it around '99 or even later. I played it on gameboy first. I don't know why i was so late playing it on snes but i guess it was because i thought no game would anyways come even close to secret of mana. but zelda on snes is still one of its own. 1985 here.
the most beautiful game ever made !!! THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME BEAUTIFULL MEMORIES ABOUT MY CHILDHOOD ! I LIVE IN ALGERIA, WHEN I SEE THIS GAME 25 YEARS AFTER... I REMEMBER BEAUTIFULL MOMENTS....THANK YOU
I watched this whole thing, and it made me get my old Super Nintendo out so I could play this. I've not got it plugged up yet cause I was resting first and I need to clean/dust everything so I can put the game system on nice clean areas but yeah... lol I love this game, I'm 28 this year, birthday is July 31st 1987, this game came out when I was pretty little and I watched my dad and brother play it then I finally played, I was silly though, scared every time I got hurt and I threw the controller and would scream LMAO. My brother and dad never let me live that down, with nearly every game I played when I was a kid. Great memories watching this, and also I see a few things we never learned when we played so I'll be able to do all that cool stuff now, it's amazing how we continue learning things 20+ years later about something you thought you knew all about.
I understand man. I'm 36 born 79. just found longplays channel. this Friday I'm buying a snes & this game. I didn't even know I missed these games so much. lol
masrta
Xiahtic junsu amen to all of that bro (-:
I literally want to cry lol... omg I'm an 80's babies and dammit I wish I was a kid again! Lol
Melanated Beauty very true
Melanated Beauty Wait a minute, girls were playing video games in the 90s? Where were they?! All I saw were Tamagotchis and pogs...
Yep, we were definitely playing video games--especially LoZ. I'm a 27 yo woman, and I just replayed the Second Quest on LoZ for NES. Hadn't played that game in sooooo long.
@@rojus2622 Most people who grew up on this game were born in the 80s/late-70s
SNES Classic 😉
My preteen life summed up in a little over 4 hours. Thankyou for posting this.
I remember being in like 6th grade and thinking on ways to beat it. Being at hockey practice thinking how. Chicago winters were so long and cold. This was my go to
In my opinion the greatest game ever created! It eludes me how CHRONO TRIGGER surpassed
A LINK TO THE PAST in terms of sales of SNES games.
Those two games are the best.
this takes me back to when I was a child loved this game . man seems like forever ago I still play video games too
ok...
2:55:05
the best music score in any video game ever.
Neurotripsicks sound more like a kirby thing.
I think that title goes to Sword Search from Link's Awakening.
As a kid I enjoyed this game and beat it many times. Only thing that freaked me out are / were these black bottomless pits. They kind of always looked like out of place. As the game moved on, the game looked a lot more freaky than what it should have (for example, like in 4:12:23 and such).
Agree, the compositions are badass and this one is no exception. Kind of reminds me of the theme for battlefield 1942..
Great music… but “Mega Man 2: Dr. Wily’s Castle 2” I think.
who else use to chop down all the bushes
Trigger Glory Every. Single. Bush. .. -_- It was like a compulsion. And grass
Trigger Glory lol yes!
I did that to as well
i only did it in the begging to finf my way into the castle
When i figured out that there are land mines and soldiers hiding in them, I used the charging dash almost on a regular basis for "landscaping". Lawnmower on coke Link, go!!
This game took me forever to beat as a child lol. This game really was an adventure! Finding all the cool hidden passageways, secret areas was sooo much fun!
Growing up with my Original NES, then later we got the awesome SNES Super Nintendo!
Thank You for this! OH!!! The Childhood Nostalgia Memories. 👦😍
Wow!! Talk about nostalgia!! I was fortunate enough to have rented for me an SNES from Blockbuster Video back in the day and was looking for a copy of the then just released Street Fighter II to play with it. Of course they were all rented out. I loved just about anything Zelda (even the cartoon series) and had already beaten Zelda 2 on NES so I rented this beauty. I instantly fell in love. I played it until I had to return it. Soon after my parents bought me an SNES and guess what game I chose. That time I played it until I finished it. I still remember the insane sense of accomplishment I felt completing such a challenging game. And from reading the posts here, my feelings were well deserved as not many people have done this as adults, let alone as a teen. This game is without a doubt one of the best SNES games ever made and arguably one of the best games of all time!! Thank you so much for being such an amazing Zelda player and allowing us to re-live this masterpiece with you!!
I honestly think this music/graphics are better than any game out there today.
Brian Leetch music ..... yea I’ll give u that, but graphics ...... meh they were good for the time
Have you played Owlboy? Hyperlight Drifter? Stardew Valley? All games with pixel graphics, but prettier ones at that.
Not really, it has great pixel-art but graphically it doesn't come close to RDR2, Witcher 3,God of War.
RETRO MASTER True. They are objectively better, but subjectively prettier.
I don't know what kind of graphics is "the best", but I do feel it's more pleasurable to play a game like Zelda or Metroid instead of a game like God of War.
it took me months to beat this game with a game guide, I felt like it was a journey in itself lol
why doesn't anyone comment on the rain that's pouring outside the castle at the beginning? is it around 7-8 pm?
+jlaesch for me took some years without any kind of guides. i remember being stuck in first castles in dark world :(
Ryonagana please comment on the rain....
Regina Reece
???
for me the rain part is like 3:00am
when you finish the dungeon with zelda to the church is like 8:00am
Greatest game ever! Love the sound effects! Brings back memories!
I’m currently playing this on my switch, it’s so good
20:00 Is it bad that I never knew about the Cucco Revenge Squad until just today? I've been playing this game since '91-'92 lol
I was a little shit head when I played this game so I figured out real quick...and died real quick to those fuckers
That was a revelation to ne too! Wondered what on earth he was doing 😅
I used to beat up the chickens and I do it now. Just to annoy the vegans.
Hands down the best Zelda game ever made! The music, weapons, map, story to this day still stand the test of time! Also don’t forget the hammer let’s you “POUND” other things
Can you break the pots with arrows?
no.
nope
Nope
Nope they would glance off the side with a satisfying little "tink".
Hi
Das ist das beste Spiel aller Zeiten ! Ich frage mich heute noch wie dieses Meisterwerk zustande gekommen ist !? MEILENSTEIN !!!
I remember when a school acquaintance handed me this gem. It was my first love of RPGs the younger me was instantly smitten & I still am today.
I never thought in my wildest dreams that it would have a deeper meaning but there we are. Watching the entire upload! Thank you for this! Reminiscing...
Should of called it a link to the past. Links awakening lol
The doctor says you only have 4 hours and 30 mins to live. Well...
Love how he teleports back to Sanctuary almost instantaneously, only to be met with, 'Link, you are a second too late'. Worse than my ex.....
Yet. She was still doing her make up and getting dressed/ready.
This is a game I played a lot of times. Watching this makes me wanna play it again.
I'm stoned and drunk and this is exactly what I was looking for and what I needed
This brings back so many memories of teaching my cousins the tricks of the bosses and how to use the different weapons.
This guy is a Zelda Master.
+Francis Lefebvre
thank you
This was my very first zelda game...this brings back good memories
one of the best games ever made
Esse jogo possui uma das aberturas mais alucinantes e fortes da historia dos jogos. É chocantemente direto ao ponto quando comparado à maioria dos jogos, que costumam abrir a historia com um ritmo mais lento. A link to the past simplesmente te da o escudo e a espada e te bota na pancadaria em menos de 3 min de jogo. A trilha sonora é uma obra prima que se mantém presente na franquia ate hoje.
Meu jogo favorito de zelda é OoT, mas é inegavel o impacto desse jogo na historia da franquia. OOT nao existiria sem a Link to the Past, pois muito que ha em OOT foi fortemente inspirado nesse.
I remember getting this game on Christmas Day back in 1994,a great video game classic
Gotta love zelda! I remember to this day when I received my SNES and it came with it. This game literally trumps all other games.
This is my favorite video game of all time. I still play this one every once in a while, and I try to make it so that the number of plays at the end of the game reads zero.
+Kay Clopton what that means? i never played this game before.
It means that because you played the game all the way through without saving, you have no saved games, and the number of played games at the end of the game reads zero.
Kay Clopton thank you
One time my dad was playing a file and somehow it glitched out and went to 999 games. I've never replicated that since nor heard of it happening to anybody else so far.
There are so many things to love about this game but something that really makes it memorable is the soundtrack. Absolutely amazing.
I recently found my Super Nintendo in storage. I can’t find my games, but I’m going to buy them online. The nostalgia is palpable. Thanks for this. 😭 ❤️
This was the absolute pinnacle when I was a kid. I come back here and there for that nostalgia fix.
Omg.. One of my favorite games best one out there. The music the graphics everything just makes it so perfect😍😍
So many childhood memories❤️
One of the best games I have ever played, bar none. The nostalgia is real ... n-no, those aren't tears!
man, i wish i lived in kakariko village. even its theme music is great.
That music reminds me about a specific girl that used to go to my class in 3rd grade. lol
Figaro Castle had a Better Theme Song
For me, the Dark World and Being A Bunny are the best themes
One of the greatest games in gaming history and one of the greatest entros of gaming history.
It gave me the chills just with the "click" sound at the beginning.....
Best time ever back when I played this amazing game.
Look at all us 30 something year olds watching a video that changed our lives.
