I'm sure you agree, but Zelda is pretty special. It was the first stand alone game we ever got. The only game I have a picture of me playing and we played it like crazy. At the time it took my brother and I 2 solid weeks to complete. We played so much that to this day my mom can hum the melody. I love Super Mario Bros. but THIS was the game that made me love video games. I hope you enjoy the video.

I will never forget that I learned about the second quest from a friend at junior high. I had just assumed that the sword in Link's hand was a kind of trophy, and had no idea how different the second quest was from the one I'd just beaten. After telling me, he also informed me he couldn't find the entrance to the 6th dungeon in the second quest. So I spent that night catching up to his progress, and on the phone with him helping him search for it for much of the night. I accidentally found that in the second quest, the recorder could reveal passages, and we found the entrance that night. We also managed to complete the seventh, and we discovered the eighth after starting to bomb every wall segment in the overworld. You can't buy experiences like this.

@MarMaxGaming 3 года назад

That’s really intense!

@GoldenfoxxPrime 3 года назад

@@MarMaxGaming It was, and genuinely one of the most fun single nights I ever had in gaming (and I'd been gaming for years even by that point). My friend actually beat the second quest that night; I think I did too, but he got to it first. And it's part of the reason why the original Zelda is still my favorite in the series. The freedom that game afforded, and without being so full of collectibles that it became exhausting, is one of my go-to examples of how action-RPGs should be made.

22:00 This is almost right. One detail though, the Roocorder glitch (named after its discoverer, rooslugs) happens not because Link is moved in both directions per se, but because after the whirlwind starts taking Link to the right, the raft reorients him so he's facing up. Then, it is true that he moves diagonally up-right, but the key thing is that he reaches the edge of the screen facing up. Link's facing direction is what determines the scrolling direction. The way the recorder does the teleportation is that it normally triggers a screen scroll to the right, so in order to reach the correct destination, it also sets Link's position to be one screen left of the destination. Because the screen now scrolls up instead of right, the result is that Link ends up one screen up and to the left of the intended destination.

@Bismuth9 2 года назад

17:51 This is because timers keep running during the pause while the whistle plays. The curse lasts a certain amount of time, and that time passes during the whistle song. By the time it finishes, the curse is also over. Same goes for any enemy timer, explaining the fireballs. For example, leevers that just came out will go back in the ground shortly after playing the whistle, because they spend most of the 255 frames of their timer paused while the whistle plays.

@NESComplex 2 года назад

Thanks for watching man! Love your channel!!! I didn’t include this point (though I was aware of it) because it’s effectively the same thing. Playing the recorder saves the player from scrambling and trying to avoid enemies without the use of the sword… so while it is just letting the curse run it’s course, from a players perspective it’s still effectively negated.

I just got home from a long shift working retail to find an envelope waiting for me. From NESComplex. All the weight of the stress of the day immediately slid off my shoulders and I felt as excited as I did when I was a kid and a free comic or prize I'd sent away for arrived. I opened the envelope and three awesome stickers and an Ebay gift card slid onto my bed. I read the letter enclosed congratulating me on being one of the winners of August's giveaway, asking me to message back if I use the gift card to buy anything cool retro gaming related and personally thanking me for my support. I felt like I'd received a letter and gift in the mail from a friend who'd moved far away, but who still thought of me on my birthday. IMO your efforts with your channel yield so much success because your genuine excitement for what you're doing is infectious and you make your supporters feel like they're part of the whole experience right along with you.

19:15 Actually, there is a known method for always winning. The RNG is set on a timer and reset from the moment of power-on/reset, so if you mash start at specific times (most easily done with audio queue's from the them song) and walk directly into the cave in a specific path cleanly, you can guarantee you will win every time. This trick is done quite a bit in speedruns that allow the use of the "up and a" reset using the second controller. However, many categories do not allow deaths or "up and a" resets, including the most popular one, rendering this manipulation impossible in those categories. Great vid though, I enjoyed it!

This was such a well done vid. I cant believed there was still so much I could learn about this game so many years later! :)

I can tell you right now that this video series of "Secrets, Codes, & Intel" is your channel niche. You did this so well I thought you had an entire series covering a large catalog. I know these take a long time to research and make but these are evergreen videos that once made will keep giving you a return year over year. It isn't about making a lot of money from one video it's about making a lot of content that gives consistent income over time. This series is exactly that. I really want to see more of these and I wish you all the success and fortune you deserve from making them. - Continue reading for 2 more video ideas. Chrono Trigger has a little known sequel. Advanced Dungeons and Dragons: Eye of the Beholder for SNES has tons of things you can cover including a code you can enter on the gamepad to give your party 99 arrows in their quivers. Been trying to find that code again for years but maybe your sleuthing can uncover it again. I believe it was in a tips and tricks magazine, playstation magazine, or this thick short book that had nes - n64 era console codes. Think romance novel dimensions but 2-2.5x as thick.

@FuzzyKedama 3 года назад

Bro, thank you for doing this video. Zelda 1 was my all time love game (followed by Mario 3) as a child. Thank you for covering some of the minor differences between the NES and FDS versions too (there's plenty more but I can understand due to time constraints). Thank you also for explaining what the Manji is. Many Westerners don't understand the concept. I absolutely enjoyed every second of this video. Keep it up man!

@NESComplex 3 года назад

Thank you! I'm pleased to know i explained those aspects well.

All these years, and I always thought the only way to save was to die.

@Yroko 3 года назад

From a friend who saw me do that. He quickly ran home without telling me then came back and showed me his Nintendo Power, and it had said on the 2nd controller up A to save. Me and my dad were so grateful, to waste time to go to the fairy and get filled then run to the dungeons made it soo much easier. He had dinner at our house for the next few days.

@GameplayandTalk 3 года назад

Man, there was a ton of stuff here I had no idea about, like how the flute works. Glitches aside, it's hard to think that there's still so much normal functionality for me to learn about this game. It truly is a masterpiece.

@NESComplex 3 года назад

they really layered the game in ways we're still discovering

@MiketheratguyMultimedia 2 года назад

This was absolutely fantastic. From your mature and straightforward narration (no funny voices, no needless pop-up comedy animations, etc.) to the breadth and quality of the information you imparted (the fitting dungeons kind of blew my mind), your video captivated me. As a longtime Zelda player (I was 9 when the first game released in the USA) and instant Nintendo Power subscriber, as well as a reader of Game Over and The Ultimate History of Video Games, I thought that there wasn't really anything of note to learn about the original game. I was happy to see that not only was I wrong, I was highly interested by your efforts. You've earned another subscriber and please, definitely do more of these. Don't change a thing, this was perfection.

I miss the days when it was okay for young boys to be heros and young girls princesses. When we could be warriors and protectors and not villains or victims.... when good was good and evil was evil.

@enforcerridley158 3 года назад

Evil has taken over. When evil rules, good is considered evil and evil is considered good if it benefits the evil's rule. We are in for dark times…. So, it is dangerous to go alone. Take this!
