Congrats!!! Awesome details and playthrough

nice job ! I wanted to call you a noob, but I can't even joke about it. Great

as a football fan, it was entertaining to hear the irrelevant football conversations. it made me watch longer

How many levels, eh ?

Honestly...this is my personal favorite Legend of Zelda game....this is the one I play on my Regular Nintendo or Switch

Looking forward to seeing your run through of the post game

What about that southwestern castle by the dock blocked off with the triforce symbol? Is that second quest?

Wow, it looks fantastic ! love it.

This looks amazing!

Back in 1987 when i first played this game i unknowingly was playing second quest the entire time because i used Zelda as my character name. When sharing all the secrets we found i was totally lost, they were all on first quest. We didn't know back then. We didn't know. Lol

World record .. congratulations !!!! Blows train whistle Nevermind

I never knew this version on Zelda 2 existed. Super kool.

FINALLY someone who doesnt suck! It shows you where a good player as a kid. I see all the tricks being applied. Was nice to watch you!

At least I'm not the only one who sucked at this game. Lmao

Omg, the usual non moving npc that got me stuck on many occasions annoyed me to no end too.

Thank God you can still cheese Dark Link. Lol

❤

I've never seen Mega Man 2 played this way... It's.... amazing...!

second quest is even better

the game looks fun, but your game play style drives me nuts

Thank you!!!

Are you or Jay cee better gamer 🤔

Vertical thrust “down stab”and invertical thrust “up stab” …yeah that’s the ticket 🫣🤪😎

Question for anyone here…does there exist a category similar to this with no overworld screen warping or dungeon block skipping? I feel like they’re unintended glitches and prefer to run without them.

❤😊

I remember designing my own Zelda 2 game when I was a kid. This reminds me of some off branch ideas from those days.

The things that kill me about this otherwise impressive redo is: I hate the chicken! I just do. I’ve seen people play this and they will just use the chicken spell like a crutch since you are shorter thus harder to hit and still have access to attack abilities so why even bother ever switching back? This also means that levels are redesigned to accommodate the chicken physics instead of the fairy powers which would no longer be limited to a single screen per casting. The tower leading up to the final boss is unremarkable and the fact there’s anything past Shadow Link both undermines the significance of the surprise final challenge and forgets the point of the story was just to get the lost, third Triforce to wake the OG Zelda and not defeat Ganon. I don’t like that the Blessed Down Stab is now behind a progression wall that forces you to do Midoro _before_ getting it instead of putting it off until after visiting Mido for the new ability. For all the limitless room to work with beyond the NES original, how is it they couldn’t finally fix Link’s sprite so that his shield isn’t green nor his sword flesh colored? With all the extra space now being in widescreen, I think the organization of the interface at the top of the screen was poorly thought out. There’s enough room to keep the ranks next to their meters since they’re what the eye focuses to up top. Just space things out a little to take advantage of the empty space on the sides. The life counter can connect to the EXP tally. I know you didn’t design this and I’m not leveling these criticisms at you. Just want to share my feelings since I find some of these to be deal breakers.

This game looks like junk

You gonna do the bonus content you skipped out on?

How are you so good at zelda 2. By far the hardest zelda I have ever attempted.

Z2 ... AoL . AOL ?! OMG Nintendo predicted teh future !!! xD

The fact fairy turns you into a chicken, count me out.

This game takes me back to my child. Thank you for your content. I wish I new how to start a channel. I have the 1984 NES light seris. Has Rob the Robot for Gyromite and The light gun for Duck Hunt. I appreciate you making this content. Thank you

16:28 little did he know...😉😉

this looks so good

This was a staple of my gaming childhood, and now I've just finished playing the first quest with my 6-year-old and 4-year-old boys. I can't even tell you how fun and nostalgic it was to have them direct me exactly where to go and what to do throughout the game, and then beat it a few days ago. They wanted to play Second Quest, but I wasn't interested in running around everywhere randomly trying to find the levels or using a guide, so I just watched your speedrun, which was awesome. Thanks for keeping the narration clean as well, because then I could watch it again with the boys! Great video and congrats on the great run!

"Hello and welcome to widescreen" Riveting stuff

Somehow I expected more celebration at the end. Chillest world record ever :P

2:34:00 It's always the last place you look.

This game is zelda, dragon warrior, and faxanadu all rolled into one

1:54:06 "Where's my potion?" -some cowboy

The easiest Zelda game in my opinion is this one when you have long plays but the hardest Zelda for me is for sure majoras mask and twilight princess

Fun fact: the first five dungeons* can be arranged in a certain order to spell "ZELDA". *(In the second quest.)

This remastered 😂

Just curious, why take the time to get the letter if you're never going to buy potion?

My first play through of this was amazing. Glad to see you enjoying it as well!

I came here because I was looking everywhere for a ninth dungeon and Ganon... all I had to do was go back to the beginning. 😤

How long before Nintendo sues?

Absolutely amazing.

Will this work in an XP virtual machine. I can do win 7 in a virtual machine but i don't have the space to do that. My system is Linux and i want to play this without wine because win never worked for me in other games a long time ago like halo so haven't bothered using wine again and then wine doesn't give you full performance anyway. Just an emulator. But if it will work under xp anyway i will just fire up a virtual machine / xp it i can get it to work under XP. My virtual machine is already working is why. Just install the game and no extra work. This is sprite based so i don't see why this can't run entirely off cpu. No need for full gpu support i wouldn't think.
