Legend of Zelda Retrospective Gametrailers COMPLETE

[@sxewhil]

I remember watching this as a 12 year old boy, having just bought my Wii and my first Zelda game ever back in 2006. Takes me back.

[@DanielA-yg3un]

Oh man. I watched this back in about 2008. It's pretty crazy to hear speculation on what effect Twilight Princess will have on the fan made Zelda timeline before its release.

[@HaouDeSoul]

+Daniel A I remember the craze of the Zelda timeline. It feels odd watching this video because there is now an official timeline.

[@piccolo9365]

I remember it being a better timeline than the official one

[@PoloFloresmusic]

That finale... This is the greatest retrospective ever made I wish i could find it in better quality Thank you, Screwattack for this beautiful gem Thank you Chris for uploading it!

[@patrickholt8782]

I must have watched this about 50 times on the original game trailers website. And I love this announcer.

[@h8rman]

Wow I used to get lost in GT retrospectives in my late teens and early twenties. This publication put out stellar work

[@RolandMIA71]

Do you know what year these came out?

[@briancamacho3758]

This instantly takes me back to high school on a Friday night in 2008 on my computer getting lost in these retrospectives. Pure nostalgia

[@bailey_mccloud]

Haha I always did the exact same thing. The nostalgia is crazy.

[@lunchmeatsandwich592]

2023 - I still remember this and find it awesome as a video.

[@jainee4507]

This was quality content back in the day. Gametrailers will be missed.

[@ultimatetadpole9607]

Ahhh I used to watch this basically on loop when I first got into the Zelda series in 2007. So nostalgic for me. Recently picked up a Switch and waiting for BotW to come and ride out quarantine.

[@davidtroutman9906]

Good luck playing Breath of the Wild! It truly is a masterpiece.

[@draconuuse9731]

I want an updated version of this. Its crazy to think that the last game released when this came out was Minish cap. The series has evolved so much since then.

[@christianwright5215]

Gametrailers may be gone, but these guys are still around on KZbin under the moniker Easy Allies. Go give them some love eh

[@soysuave8426]

I had no idea that they were part of Gametrailers!

[@doscassette871]

Just subbed thanks for the info! These dudes and their website were my childhood

[@dandansfu]

Yeah but do they still make videos like this? Don’t seem to remember seeing it

[@ciaragarrity6425]

I love these little documentaries. These make me make my game, with a sense, that someday I will finish it, and become successful! Being a indie developer is hard. Seeing these old games, I wonder how hard it was to make games back then!!

[@radioned8282]

Thanks for uploading all of these! I was so worried I would lose them...

[@Casanuda]

Happy 36th Zelda. I've been playing these games for over 30 years and never has a year gone by I didn't re-complete at least one of them. Zelda 2 is still my favorite today!

[@Bajamamut]

Ah, the theorizing of timelines before there was an official one. Those were the days... 😉

[@ClericOfPholtus]

The fan timelines were better 😂

[@FoodLiquorCool]

Thanks for uploading these, so much better as one concentrated video.

[@samuraisoul2011]

as long as there is a triforce, there will be a Zelda. as long as there is a prosperous Kingdom, there will be an evil trying to destroy it as long as there is an opressive force reigning hyrule, there will be a boy in a green tunic, silver shield and magic blade to stand against them. this part always bring tears to my eyes

[@reidwithoutacause]

Currently Christmas of 2022, and I find this old gem. It’s funny to see how far Video creators have come. And It’s also just cute to watch because how far Zelda has come since this video was created. Ahh memories.

[@95017520]

Dude this got me into Legend of Zelda as a kid thanks so much for posting this!

[@SylvalumsNight]

Zelda and RE retrospectives!

[@MegamanNG]

One of the first retrospectives I've ever watched. :)

[@williamjones710]

Classic series really takes me back to being an early teenager

[@IroncladLegacy]

Zelda Conspiracy Theorists, as they became known, actually speculated as to the order of the Zelda games for years. The most commonly accepted belief was that there HAD to be 2 timelines, since some games couldn't be identified with a place in the timeline. Nintendo threw them a curve ball, when they revealed there were actually 3 timelines, all caused by the events of OOT. 🖖

[@kevinfromsales9445]

It was a shock to all Zelda fans. Many called it a cop-out and were angry for not being correct but in the end, I actually prefer Hyrule Historia's Timeline now lol.

[@mikeyfn-a6684]

Putting in lot of hours lately on AC: Odyssey and man..it's trippy seeing how far the technology/techniques have gone..yet still remained the same 🙇

[@danielcunningham3333]

This is so nostalgic

[@cliftonsargent1572]

I lost my mind when Link to the past came out, God dam that game gave me so many good memories

[@invertedfreak]

I remember this video from back when it had been posted by gametrailers to KZbin

[@tylersackett6302]

Oh my god. I've missed this video. It's still awesome!

[@dayru_ru]

I always hoped they made an updated version of this; it's still great, but not nearly in depth as their later retrospectives I do remember this got me into zelda timeline theory...back when that was actually a fun thing to do lol

[@RhythmGrizz]

Happy 35th anniversary, Link

[@c1nnabun]

best of luck to you on your future endeavors, Chris! i know you'll continue to do great things in the industry!

[@mewtkeys]

GAS. I think my favorite thing about the LoZ series is the timeline.

[@andreib2148]

So you're telling me that the green little dude is not named Zelda?!

[@Maikigai]

Woot! Thanks for posting this.

[@c1nnabun]

+Mikeyboy86 woot Zelta!!

[@2lo4sno]

It's hard to say which is better; Link to the Past or Ocarina of Time. Really most major Zelda releases were great.

[@annietool2173]

That's easy, Majoras mask is the best zelda

[@Rydal1]

Great video

[@dannielle3253]

Uhhh....Zelda, why you so good?!

[@maximsotsky4859]

I love this guys voice

[@magwaaf]

This needs to be updated!

[@louiscky77]

Whos here for the 35th Anniversary?

[@paulnewhouse5126]

so old but yet sooo great ;) haha!

[@spacepirateivynova]

"dozens of different items..." You mean: eight. There are 8 items.

[@ironsentinel6047]

Round it to the nearest dozen, and technically its 12.

[@rooneye]

2:36 The Swastika dungeon.

[@leadbones]

It says right on the box for the first game, "Adventure". Zelda games are Adventure games, not RPGs. They literally defined the genre.

[@ravend5595]

Good job for the upload I hope your blessed in life

[@rygesa]

Is there a version of this thats higher than 240p?

[@soyfitos]

do you know who the narrator is and if he is doing something in youtube or somewhere?

[@soyfitos]

awesome narrator, I hope he starts doing something soon, love his voice thanks for the reply!

[@FoodLiquorCool]

+soyfitos you should follow him on twitter to find out when he joins his next team/company. I know I am.

[@Changetheling]

I love the fact of replaying a Link to the Past whenever I think about a Zelda without giving two fucks about the supposed timelines and other theories fanboys seem to need in order to enjoy a game properly. Good thing A Link To The Past aged much better than the N64 ones, which goes to show it was the superior Zelda title all along. And still is.

[@Casanuda]

As a huge Zelda fan, I still prefer making up stupid, obviously inaccurate timeline theories. Link always becomes Ganon after each Zelda game, the Legend of Zelda are a series of stories told by a half-senile Link to his grandkids, and Zelda is the true villain of all Zelda games. I'm not allowed on Zelda Universe.

[@chimuelogt]

Is there a way i can install and play A Link to the Past on a laptop?

[@narek23]

use an emulator like ZSNES or higan

[@chimuelogt]

narek23 Graias, ya lo logre instalar, ahora buscando una de N64, que fue con la consola que mas me e divertido, nunca he vuelto a reir tanto como lo hice con esa consola

[@Thollis1987]

So many Zeldas and Marios game series and not enough Metroid Prime nor Donkey Kong... Come on, Miyamoto!

[@franknitti9126]

Super Metroid was the best game on the snes but when we got the 64 the Zelda games were amazing

[@RetroPlayer4000]

you got the voice, but you need to add more subtext. the video cuts are okay, but could be more synced with what your saying. not bad in the end result. i give it 4 stars outta 5 so 80th percentile

[@Ocean25252]

Gametrailers used to be the shit.

[@TheWetzelPretzel]

Majora's Mask tidbit. 😁 The developers at Nintendo wanted it to be a sequel to OOT, but we're denied. Majora's Mask was the only way they were going to be allowed to make a second Zelda game for the N64. It had to be unique (just in case it might damage OOT's reputation). Due to harsh time restraints (less than a year) and drastically lower budget, they elected to re-use much of what was already built for OOT and that played into why so much looked like it was the same, even though it was given unrelated meanings 🖖

the only bad thing about alttp and oot were moldorm and the water temple

[@papanolongerplays4133]

I really love the Legend of Zelda. But don't you think this retrospective is fanboy gushing?

[@patrickpierce7885]

Well its meant to be an appreciation of the series, so I don't know what you thought you clicked on here.

[@ryanstevens3822]

ben moody

[@edward18517]

it's too bad Nintendo doesn't give this level of thought to the timeline...

[@calebjanus2000]

Might be wrong on that one man.

[@edward18517]

Or I might not be.

[@RhythmGrizz]

edward18517 no, you're wrong. go read the Hyrule historia. there is an official timeline.

[@leadbones]

There is only an official timeline because fools like you people forced their hand. The games were never originally designed to fit any sort of timeline. That was just rarely done at the time. So, when you complain about the timeline, know that it only exists because you are a moron.

[@JB2FROSTY]

Y'all think the scores are beautiful. I think they are annoying as shit
