A Link to the Past Review and Retrospective SNES The Legend of Zelda

[@NESComplex]

I've been working tirelessly on this video and relaunching the channel. If you enjoy it, please like, comment, and share... I would REALLY appreciate the help. In the works are a couple "Is It Fun?" episodes, Nintendo Power episodes, a Top 20 NES games, and a new series on Retro 80s' and 90s' toys and cartoons.

[@ss-qn7ff]

[@P123-t4g]

How did you play it back in the day when there were no walkthroughs online?????????? I am playing it on my SNES mini and would NEVER have figuered out how to finish the game. Like how are you supposed to know exactly where to warp back and forth from the Dark world? And I am a pretty hard core Zelda and Mario player so I know you have to be creative but there are so many times I have to get help from the internet. I am just baffled that some people actually completed this game without help 😧😧😧

[@andrekenjisouza]

@@P123-t4g hahahaha I had a cousin who was like a brother for me and we both used to help each other to find secrets on games way before the internet... Aways when some of us figured some secret out we called to tell what to do on games. That time was the best time of my life!

[@patinho5589]

Yup.. I thought I’d died when I competed this game. It felt like the end of a life.

[@patinho5589]

@@P123-t4g I completed it without help. You just figure it out. The hardest part was palace 5 or 6 in the dark works.. figuring out which block to push from an upper floor to land 3 floors below. The Warp points are all obvious. The band gives you clues if you look. It’s all clues. Like the outline of the mountain for the best first warp point you use.

A Link to the Past, Super Metroid, Earthbound, Super Punch Out... The list goes on, proving that the SNES is one of the best systems of all time.

I played the first one on NES and the second on NES, but a Link to the Past was really my gateway to Zelda games forever. The music, atmosphere, environment, game play and puzzles were top notch!

I am so glad that this randomly showed up when I got on KZbin today. LTTP has always been one of my favorite games and you summarized why quite beautifully. LTTP and Resident Evil 2 have shared the top spot on my list for as long as RE2 has been out. Newer games like Red Dead Redemption 2 and Horizon: Zero Dawn have come close, but have not broken the #1 spot for me. When I first played LTTP, it was at an after school youth group on a tiny navy base in Maine. There were a few TVs in the building and we could sign up in 15 minute increments to play NES or SNES. We'd all gather around and watch each other play. We'd all find things that everyone else would run home and replicate on their own game. It was truly a magical time in my life.

[@mykten187]

I’ve played the entirety of this game about four times in a twenty year span. And I can say it is both difficult and frustrating every time. Very rewarding experience though. My #1 game of all time. With the limited potential the system had this game surpassed its time by a long shot. Now you buy a game that has all the tech you can ask for and it still won’t come close.

[@milesaway1980]

That's something that surprised me when I revisited this game a few years back. My friends played it a lot when I was younger, and I'd watch, but never really got into it. I decided to give it a go as an adult and, while figuring out the puzzles was fun, it was DIFFICULT. Not necessarily difficult to figure out, but just difficult to beat. Lots of hard enemies and punishing bosses that made replaying some of the dungeons overwhelming. I don't think I really ever gathered that it was such a hard game when I was a kid.

[@iamsheel]

The only zelda game I played in my life was the minish cup when I was a teen and I got stuck at some point and never went back to it (it didn't across my mind at the time to resort to the internet) but now after the quarantine since I had time in my hand I decided to play the zelda classics on my phone (Mainly because I played LTTP for few hours I thought the whole series worth it) After a whole year casually playing the game from time to time and getting stuck at some parts, I finally finished it. And as an adult who's zelda games never was part of my nostalgia, it's still a fantastic experience even after 30 years of it's release.

[@richardcarpenter24]

Link To The Past is still the best Zelda game in my opinion.

A Link To The Past is by far my favorite Zelda game of all time and my second favorite game of all time! Like you, this game was my sole reason for buying a Super Nintendo. I worked all summer as a teenager to score a SNES and this game. I will always remember the feeling of my hard work paying off and the bliss of being enthralled in this enchanting adventure. That summer marked the pinnacle of my childhood. Great video. Thank you!

[@NefariousWes]

Excellent video, man! I can see why this took so long to put together, and it was well worth the wait! Videos like this are exactly what I look for on KZbin, and where I draw the most inspiration from for my own videos. This is only going to encourage me to step up my own game! I really appreciate all of the work that went into this project. Bravo, man! As for a Link to the Past, I share many of the same memories as you. This was the game that changed the SNES from "I want it" to "I NEED it" back in '92. The fact that this game is the archetype for every subsequent release in the series since, says a lot about how groundbreaking this adventure really is. While not my favorite in the franchise personally, I totally get why it's on the top for many Zelda fans. Thanks a lot for this video. I hope that this is a sign of your return to releasing content consistently now. I discovered your channel right after you went on "hiatus" and was bummed after I watched every one of your videos that I could no longer support my habit.

I still remember my original amount of "games played" during the credits, 152. I died probably around that many times (and a game played is also accessing your profile). My confident 9 year old self announced to my family that I would one day beat this game with 0 deaths, they laughed. About 7 years and 14 completions later I pulled it off =)

[@oddioblinker]

Thank you for the video and great news to hear you're working on new stuff always really enjoyed your commentary welcome back.

[@scratchpoint]

Welcome back. Link to the Past (along with SMW) is one of the first games I got for the SNES the Christmas it was released. It's one of my favorite games of all time and it still holds up to today. While there are still modern games I enjoy, there is a certain charm to the 16-bit era that just can't be beat.

[@NESComplex]

I totally agree... do you think it's just nostalgia? I think theres some nostalgia tilting my thoughts, but i honestly believe there is a timeless quality to these games... Super Metroid, Link to the Past, Super Mario World... my kids love these titles even today

[@scratchpoint]

Some of it is nostalgia, sure. However, I also think that due to the limitations of the technology available back then, the developers had to come up with more imaginative ways to convey their creations to the players as best as they could. Back then, there was a certain level of imagination on the player's part too, because not everything could be shown to you plain as day in a 3D cut scene the way it can today.

[@NESComplex]

Right... some kids today don't get the imagination thing... they want everything fed to them

[@TheJoejoez]

It isn't nostalgia, the games were good and the peak of 2d gaming, N64 to me was a downgrade, several franchises went 3d too soon... I really couldn't stand Mario 64 compared to 3 or SMW. (Unpopular opinion but...Ocarina made the jump to 3d a little better but was still not the same and rough to look at, even back then. game became more boring. fields and dungeons became emptier w/ few enemies. more hand holding started with navi/owl. boss fights became super easy. From about 87-94 Nintendo was KILLING it and the gold standard.) Most of my nostalgia is actually with the NES, but SNES was peak Nintendo for sure.

[@commando30]

I still remember the first day I played this game when it came out. I kept playing it year after year. My all time favourite.

[@adroharv9213]

I've never been able to find fault with Zelda Past. Definitely a masterpiece like no other as I honestly can't think of any other game that comes together so majestically and so design perfect. I went on to love other Zelda games but in truth they all have flaws in comparison and only a few of them are very good. Zelda Past is however simply unmatched and likely never will be

[@MyNamesLike]

First time I've played A Link To The Past, I thought I've played a fable. I must save the princess and find the sword to rescue her. It's not an important sword because it's the strongest. It's because this is the sword and I'm the hero. Whatever on games were longer released at this time, I haven't played. I couldn't. I've played it over and over again. And at the end, the Master Sword sleeps. Forever. Because this text : it was the best ending ever for me as a child. Unforgotten. And now I'm growing up and buy, whenever I buy a nitendo console, because of Zelda (and Smash ;) ) as a love that never ends.

A part of me mourns the party-based game we never got, but I'm still glad for what we did get- a fine adventure that gave my childhood many grand hours of fun and adventure. Still recall standing on top of Ganon's temple in the Dark World and looking at the horizon, and the climb of Death Mountain. It just felt so overwhelmingly tall and grand, with its seemingly endless tunnels and how they put a "shrunken" version of Hyrule in the background once you reached the top. That was grand... and so was this retrospective.

I know you love this game as much as I do by the way you narrate the details of this masterpiece. Thank you.

[@MarioCarnello]

Nearly 30 years later, i watch this and remember every single scene it shows. A true classic.

[@ShenmueAtheist]

You're alive!!!!!!!

[@garymitrovic2503]

ShenmueAtheist took the words out of my mouth!

[@RangerMcFriendly]

Your sentiments echo mine perfectly. The sound of the rain outside the castle was also when I fell in love with the game.

[@Matt-ps9iz]

I mean it’s no Super Metroid... God damn the SNES was just simply the best.

[@NESComplex]

I know... SNES has all my favorites

[@2682shark]

Its better

[@DarDarBinks1986]

NESComplex I never had a Nintendo console until the N64 came out. I was a Sega kid first and Nintendo kid second, but both over Sony. Sega for Sonic, Nintendo for Mario and Zelda, PC for everything from Duke Nukem to Fallout.

As me and my non religious home boy say: God Bless The Snes.

[@TheClassicWorld]

@@siamesetool7103 'God' Bless the S...zzz... SNES. Nintendo... Super! What?

[@boodro2122]

Very well put together video and entertaining narration. Good job, man. Made me smile several times. 👍🏻

[@weegeester006]

What the hell? You're back from the dead

[@NESComplex]

Well... i wouldn't call it "dead"

[@esl4058]

Aw man I never thought a game review would get me teared up lol. Cheers. I remember I was about 7 or 8 years old when this came out and I was instantly amazed. The dungeon music used to scare me to death. Looking back, it's easy to see why this game was so well received but we had no idea what we really had when we were playing it. We were just living in the moment with it as kids. Fantastic game.

[@GameplayandTalk]

WAT.

[@NESComplex]

Hahaha

[@thebomb78]

A great summing up of a wonderful, classic game. I remember playing this as a 14 year old in 1992 and being absolutely engrossed.

[@TrinidadJamesWoods]

I always loved the subtle details in this game, like how the arrows would shake back and forth when they stuck into a target. What a brilliant game.

[@zazaray]

You've made me wanna play a little lttp tonight, hit me right in the nostalgia! Good vid, appreciate you talking about how the sound and upgraded visuals were important for the time. It's the rpg that inspired many of today's rpgs.

[@matt.baller]

What a fantastic video. Really enjoyable nostalgic trip really well put together. Great narrative too - nicely done!

[@travisdonaldstanley6420]

Thanks for the picture of the team who made the game. They gave us all they could give. Classic Japanese culture. They worked really really hard to make such a great game in such a short amount of time.

[@Visigoth_]

I just had to drop some praise on this video. Out of all the videos I've seen in regards to A Link to the Past; this one perfectly conveys the thoughts and feelings I've had about that wonderful game since my childhood.

[@NESComplex]

Thank you Nathan! It’s quite a process to word things the way I want. I’m glad it came across... and clearly you have great taste in games... and channels. Lol

[@Visigoth_]

@@NESComplex great minds. ;)
