Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (NES) speedrun in

12-06-2022 -- Watch live at / arcus

[@OldieWan]

Arcus, you are truly a master of your craft. Watching you play these video games is like watching Randy Rhoads play guitar. Never stop uploading these. It is a real treat. I remember back in the 80's playing this game and it taking us months to complete the game. I would go to my friends house and his dad would play along with us. Months upon months it took us to finally beat the game. Here you are doing it in just over an hour. What a legend!

[@princesspumpkinpanty]

Isn't randy rhoads a gay porn star?

[@stacychamness9077]

Randy Rhoads is a phenomenal legend on guitar. 😎👍💪🎸🤘

[@stacychamness9077]

One of my favorite songs with Randy playing is You Can't Kill Rock & Roll.

[@migduh]

I loved when he said “It’s clunkin’ time” then he clunked all over the place.

[@Deathstalker3331]

That was a good clunkin' time.

[@loveofmylifemybestfriend.1297]

There's a thousand different ways I can say babe. Different attitude people in public

[@monitoredactivity8649]

Nice original joke, you are obviously very creative and original and not regurgitating the same stupid fucking joke everyone else copies.

[@migduh]

@@monitoredactivity8649 THANK YOU! Finally, someone gets me.

[@derekv4552]

Its awesome to see that a 14 second lag was caught up on and passed for a pb

[@jermsbestfriend9296]

I know this ain't for everyone, but absolutely love this dang video: loz2 my favorite game of all time.

[@jermsbestfriend9296]

And this is why for all you dummies who hate Z2: dude is at the top of his game, one of the top experts of all time, and he's playing Castle 1 with 1 health bar--this is a game for men, not boys. There's also some harder versions which are quite fun.

[@jermsbestfriend9296]

Dang. After two unexpected deaths, just a hair over 79? Absolutely incredible. Definitely can go sub-79 at some point.

[@dreizac]

I don’t know if it’s just the game or what but I find Zelda 2 plays chill relax content. Keep it up, very fun to watch.

[@bobbyblueholliday]

Bruh! I am just… blown away! GG

[@rjamesstephens]

Impressive run! Love watching you keep calm and perform so highly

[@chrisoneal2718]

Another Arcus Zelda 2 run! I’ve learned a lot from your videos as I’m training to run this game too! 🗡️

[@lordkiza8838]

Crazy to know I could run into a legendary cowboy hat in the wild

[@tjstriker2496]

Wish I had your patience and consistency. :) Congrats dude!

[@hiltz0007]

Love the new race format! Awesome

[@jussdank]

We got the box of chocolates...thanks for the upload and Happy Holidays, Arcus

[@FrankSpear77]

Wow! Crazy impressive run!

[@marxthenoob7085]

I love seeing new Arcus vidya. "I got a small doll of myself!!" I love it. This is my eyebleach after all the wrongs that is the internet. Also congrats on the new pb!!!!

[@mtorres4drummer]

Nice PB, Arcus!

[@chriswright2422]

Used to play it all the time and aced it! Good luck arcus!

[@natewheatshelf]

GG Arcus! Nice work!

[@bedwablackburn]

Congrats on the new PB!

[@titansrule72]

its like watching prime mike tyson box in the heavyweight division. arcus is kid dynamite

[@itchyisvegeta]

Oh snap, haven't seen your vids in awhile, and you are playing Zelda 2 now? Sweet!

[@stinoffski69]

Congrats man!

[@jaredmcdaris7370]

This is the best month.

[@merlinyesreally]

Outstanding!

[@hicknopunk]

Are you running my favorite zelda again!?

[@AgnosiaAgnosis]

It’s so good that I hate it lol

[@hicknopunk]

@@AgnosiaAgnosis i got it for Christmas when it came out and I played the heck out of it. I honestly want another, non cdi, 2d Zelda title.

[@AgnosiaAgnosis]

@@hicknopunk man, I remember my older sister playing while I was in kindergarten... Came home she had the fairy... Like w t f... Yeah recently played it on switch with my roommate (neither of us has beat this game yet) and the damn thing froze on us after playing through more than half of it LOL... never playing it again

[@hicknopunk]

@@AgnosiaAgnosis oh man, my first time through Zelda 1 I was on the 8th dungeon and my sister deleted my save not really realising what she did. 🤣😢

[@ausgamecollector]

Arcus even saves his own frames with the moustache… Gotta be THRIFTY 😅

[@smsfte4699]

Wait, Arvid just posted a PB for this like a week ago? Did he play again and get another PB??

[@TheMattmatic]

Arvid got one and Arcus got one too! ;)

[@doughboysnerdly2745]

28:25 okay this actually made me laugh out loud and i was busy shopping on ebay when i heard it

[@superduty2023]

Unreal athlete

[@SamuraiKidMusic]

cool how u show the previous pb at the same time!

[@adamb404]

Dang, shaved off another 30 seconds. Nice work!

[@vincentv6815]

that knight kill at 46:36... jeez...

[@lonewolfandcomics3250]

I’d love to see you do a speed run of Jackie Chan’s action kung fu!!

[@alexelectricx]

arcusHUA

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

i never noticed that "palaces" had background, it seemed just black to me

[@mattk2308]

Damn it, I just watched your 1:19.28 video. Here we go again....

[@BabysitterSky]

And............ clunk

[@returntozero2112]

Did McDonalds steal their jingle from the "crossing the lake on a raft" sound from this game? Sounds awefully close.

[@dethaddr]

No He-Man for the PB? Say it ain't so!

[@BensStuff]

are you trying to get a glitchless WR? cause you got the glitch town you can do if youre not

[@oriondx72]

Good video but could we get this same run but deathless?

[@divy716]

I appreciate you ruining an excellent day... thank you for your poignant passive aggressiveness.

[@locustkllr]

100% runs of this are so satisfying. whats the 1CC mean?

[@do5e]

and.. clunk 👍

[@ashtraydekay6624]

When you asked, "does it look dark in here?" At the end....it did. Something about your webcam?

[@nikito370]

the raft tune is Day Tripper, right?

[@AnalyticalReckoner]

Something about this game infuriates me.

[@Trip_Fontaine]

It's frustrating as hell to play casually. Ridiculously complex mazes. Tons of important stuff totally hidden with only the vaguest clues as to how to find it. Difficult combat. Absurd amounts of grinding to gain experience required. Most games from the NES era would be considered horrible if they came out today. I still love watching people play them though for the nostalgia, and for the awesome graphics and music.

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

weird sound driver and sound effects that goes with weird gameplay zelda-1 has much better music and what a major difference many harder games have only great music to keep you playing despite that difficulty

[@knallertk8062]

What is that thing you always say that sounds like "messerschmitt"

[@Bluedragon7777]

It was almost to big but by the time I was done beating it I did beat it again but not to often it's like Antarctica I suppose once you been there for a long time and know it why go back.

[@golgo013]

congratulations!\( ˆoˆ )/

[@YEUWYU]

wow man! isnt this run better than the last one you submitted?

[@prizim]

good clunk

[@ivlit3529]

This game was impossible to beat without a guide, when you play it for the first time. has a speedrun The Adventures of Bayou Billy. nes I admit that you are hard as a rock playing this games
