Great choice. I would suggest Majora’s Mask after!
That game involves the Happy Mask Salesman.
I’d stay away from him as much as possible.
He is delightfully creepy… but that kind of describes the whole Majora’s Mask experience.
I think you have to beat the game within a time limit or else you get a game over that way.
They actually integrate the time limit into the wider experience so so well. It’s really hard to explain, but don’t feel like it’s only a short game with limited scope.
Word, I recently played Super Mario RPG on my SNES. Been putting off getting the remake, I’ll probably buy it used somewhere
Best Zelda game!
Heard that so often, but cannot relate. Coming from the NES, SNES, GBA games, I cannot see why this game was so popular. Currently playing it on 3DS, but need to force myself at times…
Why?
Good point 😄 Want to get the full impression.
Have a great time!! 🛡️🗡️
Don’t bump that wall! All that stuff is precariously placed on that slanted shelf and might fall off.
Hah! hup! hyah! hup! hyah! hah!
What? This isn’t retro…The game came out in 1998. That’s only…26 YEARS AGO???
No no no no no NO NO NO NO NO!!!
looks in the mirror and see’s an old grey haired man replace the youthful face I was expecting
STOP IT!!!
Hits deep now, doesn’t it?
Protip: jump back in the water after you raise the level for the first time.
If that doesn’t make sense right now, it will in a few hours.

Princess Ruto: He’s gonna MARRY ME!
Kid Link: I’m not marrying the weird looking fish girl!
Adult Link: Welp… Fucked that up didn’t I?
There are so many fun glitches you can learn in that game. I highly recommend trying some, it’s a blast. Some easy ones:
Power crouch stabs - Link’s crouch stab has no damage value, so it ends up using the value of your previous move (regardless of if it did damage to anything). The deku stick’s jump-slash does massive damage, so if you take one out and jump slash the air, you can then spam crouch stabs to do massive damage very quickly. It will one-shot almost any common enemy, and can defeat bosses in less cycles than should be possible. Ghoma can be defeated in 1 cycle by doing this.
Infinite sword glitch - If you interrupt Link’s crouch stab, the game will fail to turn off the sword’s hurtbox and will do damage every frame while Link holds it. You can interrupt a crouch stab with pretty much anything Link can interact with, like reading signs, picking up a bomb, or talking to Navi. And you can apply the deku stick jump slash damage to this glitch for even more damage.
Leaving the forest early - There’s several ways to do it, but the easiest way is to walk against the wall to the right of the Kokiri kid and get as close as possible while facing away from him. If you crouch stab the wall to push yourself into him and press A to talk to him during the brief moment you’re inside of him, Link can pass through… But he will still block you from the opposite side, so to get the rest of the way out you have to roll under the kid while he’s falling from the high end of the passage wall.
I play it on my 3ds 🫢
Oh Jesus’s, if it’s taken you 26 years to get through the forest temple, the water temple will be the death of you
