Legend Of Zelda A Link To The Past Hyrule Castle Theme

The Legend Of Zelda A Link To The Past Hyrule Castle

[@Ian5042]

Easily one of the most memorable themes of the SNES era, the Hyrule Castle theme was dark, ominous and prideful all at once. Most importantly, it went perfectly with slashing knights off of narrow bridges and sending them to their deaths.

[@Sweetzhu]

"I wonder what's for dinner?" RIP The King, never forget.

[@deaththekid922]

Sweetsu SK Zelda cdi ???????

[@bluehedgehog123]

Of course

[@Thewolfguys.cartoons2000]

We don’t count him in Breath of the Wild?

[@yogabbagabba3558]

This is my ringtone - and that opening fanfare still strikes fear into my heart every single time my phone rings.

[@PrestonGarveyofthesettlements]

I loved this song since I was 5. I even whistle it now while sieging a castle on Elden Ring.

[@SquintStint]

I love this theme. And they made a few beautiful renditions of it in Twilight Princess.

[@AgentEntropos]

Even this early into the game you knew you were on a journey of epic proportions.

[@vikingmetaldragon]

This song was playing really clearly in my dream last night. Had to come put it on.

[@Sephiewoth]

and now, every zelda game i play and you go into the castle, this theme plays but is merely a remake of this awesome song

[@cheeto1409]

even botws castle theme has parts of this in it

[@Sephiewoth]

@@cheeto1409 Yeah!!! I love this leimotiff so much. Leimotiffs are one of my favorites things to find tbh

[@Actraiser1337]

this is one of the best games ever made

[@BlueDude87]

This piece so awesome! A Link To The Past! Best 2D game ever!

[@BlueDude87]

A Link To The Past = the Zelda title that set the standard design and flow for all future titles in the series!

[@emilyr.448]

my friends all think im mental for loving zelda songs as much as i do... but i honestly don't care. i like what i like, and this stuff is epic!

[@Daren_PNW]

any videogame music, pretty much for me, too, rofl. ditto!

[@Mr.Soupik]

So glad there’s botw now to bring in so many new people to this awesome theme!

[@alanisgirl2012]

I think 'Hyrule Castle Theme' is a great song. That's when you're in the castle.

[@bluesnagletooth]

I have both in working condition too but one of my friends spilled gatorade on my NES at a party, and I couldn't believe it still worked perfectly

[@BlueDude87]

The remix of this theme in Four Swords Adventures for the Nintendo Gamecube made me get chills!

[@fabianbetz8817]

best melodie ever

[@mercy8617]

Love how they used the same theme for Wind Waker and then proceeded to use it for Breath Of The Wild. True dedication right there.❤

[@SubspaceEmissary1]

Yah I give me goosebumps because it's so awesome! This is the best song ever by far.

[@PeterZeeke]

I still have this in myy head playing the castle in tears of the kingdom

[@AyrethKirigashi]

Agreed; Though I beat Majora's Mask; I was stuck at the Stone Tower Temple for quite some time. Before that, I had gotten stuck at both Snow Head and the Great Bay temples as well. D: The only one I didn't have a problem with, really, was the Woodfall temple... and even there I had a few problems. Not saying I'm the best Zelda player in the world of course; so me getting stuck in almost every temple doesn't help the case much xD but I haven't had too much trouble with any of the others.

[@Bored_Overthinker]

The magic word for this song is this: adventure. This song SCREAMS adventure!

Damn, Koji Kondo LOVES phrygian mode, especially in Zelda games

[@CarlCampbell]

Love how this made a full orchestral comeback in BOTW

[@bluehedgehog123]

Hyrule castle 🏰 💂🎖️

[@armoredcorefan2719]

Felt cheated not being able to bomb the cracked walls in the basement at first.

[@CODMarioWarfare]

@mortelkill And Zelda II. My uncle sold his NES a few years ago, but he still has Battletoads and a zapper.

[@DarkLaud]

You probably doubt my love for this franchise.

[@OffTheHeezay21]

I love Zelda so much.

[@deathbysuarez]

@elvencloud this^ imo the best zelda game of all time

[@MegaConrad]

I've heard that Miyamoto either wants to do Majora's Mask 3D, or a Link to the Past sequel for 3DS. Honestly, I vote for the latter. I can play Majora's Mask on 64 anytime I want, but a LttP sequel would be INCREDIBLE.

[@guyspy21]

Too bad, you got both

[@gracekeeling]

This song is my ringtone.... Scares me everytime

[@Dyne25]

I played this when I went to Hyrule Castle in Tears of the Kingdom. It was epic.

[@access1992]

This song sounds like it could also be in a Final Fantasy game.

[@MC-ty4hd]

What a masterpiece

[@haloworn2]

i love this game!

[@BlueDude87]

Eiji Anouma has said that Majora's Mask will be remade like Ocarina Of Time 3D probably by Groozo. Plus, A Link To The Past never received a visual update. It was only ported.

[@wllmbr2]

well i was born in 96, but my parents held onto it and now ALTTP is my favorite of all zeldas

[@Sonicrush007]

They in fact did say they are going to remake the game and Majora's Mask remake later.

[@CastleMinerFTW]

heard this on a ttt server and thought i knew it, i did xD

[@SamuraiTacos1]

hes a fucking legend of video game composing

[@ThymeSplitter]

This is my favorite LoZ game ever! Ocarina of Time won't beat this one in my heart :]

[@DontpushtheBbutton]

@AssassinKaasil The entire game franchise seems medieval.

[@Leafiafan]

@haseo131 But a GBA remake of it came out several years back. I believe you can buy it from the wiishop channel as well.

[@Kahran042]

This is the music I imagine playing in the Castle level in NetHack.

[@hoques1432]

I know that feel bro :/ lost this game too... so sad.

[@JobroskiSwaqqman]

this was my first zelda game when i beat it i had like over 300 deaths then i played it recently and had like 3 :P

[@Flameblade10]

@CasualVader The legend of Zelda invent the Genre where the current Zelda formula was invented by a link to the pasts game play.....with is as follows......small amount of story then 3 dungeons then another bit of story then 8 dungeons then a small amount of story follows by the final dungeon witch leads to the final boss with has more then one form ^^ (now there are exceptions to this like most of the GB/GBC/GBA games but even a few still follow the link to the past formula) ^^

[@nypad5]

In an interview, Miyamoto stated he want's to distance himself from re-makes HOWEVER the one he want's to do mostly is a fully 3D rendered Link to the Past "remake".

[@imortal333]

it might just happen. the game is already on virtual console on the wii. I hope the game is basically the same thing but with more modernized graphics like with loz oot. i'm really glad that the only thing changed in oot was the graphics.

[@dekulink213]

This game should be remade for 3ds

[@gamecube.pizzabroken]

It technically did on the 3ds

[@mortelkill]

@mrZora2 ....you haven`t played a lot of game, this is one of the eaiest game of its time.

[@CasualVader]

@Flameblade10 What I said still holds true. It didn't invent the series, it invented a formula.

[@Actraiser1]

I think I get where you're coming from. Yeah, it's taking place in the same world/universe. So, in a sense, a part of ALttP is being "remade." But, if you have watched the announcement video, then you know it's still an entirely new game. There's a different story, different dungeons, different mechanics/abilities, etc..

[@davidhernandez325]

You need to make a 10 minute version, ASAP.

[@PennieTwelvebutter]

I've heard from a little birdie that Miyamoto is thinking about Majora's Mask 3D after ALbW( A Link Between Worlds) is released. YES!!!! Double deal for me (Majora's Mask fan) and my dad (A Link to the Past fan)

[@anon6952]

Holy shit NOSTALGIAAAAA

[@foxdemonfreak]

well, they COULD make it sound amazing in an orchestra, but they choose instruments that don't fit or the beat is waay too slow... they can do it, but they choose not to..and it pisses me off so badly this is so amazing alot of FAN version wich are semi-orchestrated sound very good

[@tyler332425]

Have this game on my phone, fucking awesome

[@KevinStriker]

Recently got a SNES cart for next to nothing, so fucking fun.

[@CrepuscularStar]

Hope for the world! *pats on back*

[@gabelance1]

This theme is used quite a bit throughout Zelda. Minish Cap is just one place.

[@ShotgunHoward]

Fortunate enough to have an SNES and the game, but also unfortunate enough to have the game not working ;(

[@Gamexpertvids]

Wind Waker, Four swords (Has OoT font) & some other games...

[@SomeGuyWhoPlaysGames333]

I wish I was. But I didn't even exist when this game came out.

[@Flameblade10]

@CasualVader ya that was my bad meant to direct that at Elevencloud not you sorry ^^

[@mudkipdan]

Yep retro FTW :)

[@CODMarioWarfare]

@mortelkill You're making me feel bad! Zelda is damn hard!

[@Itiseggetime]

high quality 👌👌

[@ringopauljohngeorge7]

@lukasWZ this IS the best game ever made

[@fuppetti]

*walks into my house* *this music plays* Me: Holy sh*t!

[@TheJazzer94]

@mrZora2 best, yes. The most difficult...You haven't played the origiginal Ninja Gaiden, have you?

[@Captain_Indecisive]

Mine was a Sega Genesis household, unfortunately. Thank heavens for GBA ports and emulators.

[@hyper71nk]

this is where this song started, though. So without this, the song wouldn't BE in minish cap

[@Sonicrush007]

They said they might make a remake on 3DS

[@DarkLaud]

I had the overworld on my phone and forgot to silence my phone when I went to school one day, everyone was giggling and I was daydreaming so I didn't even notice until my teacher tapped me on the shoulder. Didn't care. xD

[@TrafalgarDWaterLawIhatebread]

I read that It will be both, the sequel and the remake :)

[@knucklesfan8]

the original i think beats the WW and TP ones and I didn't grow up playing this one, this games newer for me.

[@nypad5]

In an interview Miyamoto wanted to stay away from remakes for zelda however he said that Link to the past would be the first one to be redone in a 3d world!

[@gabelance1]

Yeah, Hyrule Castle was more about puzzles than fighting. It would have been nice if it was the other way around, but it was still a good dungeon (as most dungeons in any Zelda game I've ever played are).

[@11eargyle]

they also made a port for gameboy advance,and gamecube

[@Sonicrush007]

now I got my GameCube controller

[@cybermage99]

i don't care about graphics either i absolutely love loz a link to the past

[@cartman4896]

A Link to the past is the hardest zelda game ever. Many Dungeon is hell hard.

[@SuperRIOT09]

Memories i think il download it on my samsung galaxy throuh snes emulator :D. .. I already have the ocarina of time on my phone

[@matguimond92]

Four swords is an awesome game for remixing Alttp music.

[@RAWRadd]

wait but on minish cap this was the theme for when the castle was possessed. Maybe it's because that's the only game (besides skyward sword i'm still not done with it) i played from the LOZ series.

[@Sonicrush007]

I heard they might remake the game.

[@JZBeasty]

actually, the controls for Phantom Hourglass were a little more precise than those of Spirit Tracks oddly enough

[@KarateKidX]

much better than the overworld theme

[@mralexs]

Played this to death when I was 3... good times

[@bouchandre]

I'm stuck in ocarina of time, I'm stuck in Majora's mask. I also have the original zelda, but I don't like the "where the fuck do I go" feel. i'm playing trough a link to the past right now and it's that that hard, easier than the n64 ones.

[@rawman44]

@frostare I think it was.

[@kjmps999]

They should throw in random sound effects of going up and down the stairs 😂

[@SoraXKokiri]

they remade it for GBA I think, I remember they added a voice to Link and better animations

[@demetriuspsf]

good time

[@thevideogamenerd100]

they remixed this theme in Twilight Princess near the end of the game

[@MarshallLee95]

Well you're right about the situation, but in my opinion it would be better a situation like alttp, lots of monsters trying to kill you, but it was lonely u_u, is sad because that great game deserved an epic final dungeon, but it was good anyways

[@jsteffey88]

I own a Wii and have a download of this game. Is that close enough? lol.

[@Nicksolo85]

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past > The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap That means both the original Super Nintendo release & the Game Boy Advance re-release. A Link to the Past Super Nintendo > A Link to the Past Game Boy Advance
