This game is OK, like if I did live back in the 80s I might of given this game a better review since when I play games I like them to be realy special. There were some flaws in this game like you can only buy one potion at once and to save you have to kill yourself like when I have to do something else I have to like get some enimies to kill me. But there were some good things about this game, like for its time and now the world map was big with alot to explore and dungens to explore. I think Ganon was way to easy though but hey this was an 80s game so it was about what you could expect. I would recomend renting this game.

Before anyone suspects that I am picking on Zelda, note that I am not! After looking at Evil Lincoln's review, I do agree that charging over 20 bucks for a retro game with same graphics and gameplay is wrong. Unlike Mario Allstars for SNES, Zelda never remade any games from the NES/SNES vaults until about a few years ago, and what pissed me off is that they did it, one at a time with sky-high prices. I also heard that this and Zelda II remakes did'nt do any improvments with the graphics or effects like Link To The Past did (Four Swords) or the re-retroed NES/SNES Mario Games (e.g. All Stars, Mario Advance Series)!

I grew up on this game and its one of the best NES games ever and I can write a three page review on why. Nintendo decided to re-retro this game to give a younger target market a history lesson on how it was started (back to the old school), because they know little to nothing about the NES, meaning that they don't know how they were getting ripped off. Gamers aged 21 to about 40 who actually owned the NES in the past refused to get suckered in. Many of us still have our NES (if we don't anymore, then we can get the complete system off eBay or amazon for as low as $25). Nintendo was'nt thinking when they released this for GBA with the same graphics and gameplay as NES version. If you still have your NES, do not waste $23 on this game when you can get the original NES version for 1/3 of that on eBay and here. I know this is a Gameboy game that you can take anywhere, but wait for the price to go down to less than $10, if you want it for the GBA that bad.

First of all, I truly love this game! Obssessed about this game since the previews came out on the Nintendo Entertainment Club magazine (pre-nintendo power). Loved this game so much, and still rank it as one of my top games of all time. Having said all that, there is no reason to spend $30 on this game for the DS when you can download a NES emulator (smart nes is the one I use) and play it on your windows mobile 5 or 6 smartphone. Those old NES games are such tiny programs, that you can fit every NES game every released on your phone's storage card and it only takes some 50Mb maybe, if that. Works perfectly on my Samsung Blackjack, and if every bored, I can whip it out and play any of the 1,000+ NES games on my phone (and I can play for hours without significantly draining the battery life)!

I bought this for my nephew so am sure he loved it. He has one for the Sega system.

One of my favorite NES games of all time. From the time it was originally released, it spent several years on the top 10 and top 100 favorite games. It remained on the list long after the snes was released.
