Zelda Link's Awakening - Did You Know Gaming? Feat. Remix (Nintendo Switch) 

"They were forced to take a sledgehammer, and break the door down... Where they found him asleep with his Gameboy." I thought I was about to have a goddamn heart attack

Why did that train ride story sounded like it came straight out of a creepypasta like someone was about to get killed

A game developer's hobby is to... develop another game... Dude is living the dream.

5:00 Had me scared for a moment given how he slightly switch his tone.

Myamoto: I have nightmares my games will have a game breaking bug Bethesda: It's a feature

5:00 You made it sound like Williamson had committed suicide.

What the hell was up with the change of tone for the train story? Narrator made it sound like the guy was gonna be found dead of a heart attack or murdered lol

I think "Sleeper" tried to go to Koholint himself to try and figure out how to beat the game.

Link's awakening was the first game i ever played. I learned to read playing that game as a 4 year old. It holds an incredibly special place in my heart. And is to this day the standard of what it means to be a good game to me.

"Link's Awakening is becoming hard to come by, and we want fans to have access to it." So… Can we have a remake of F-Zero, like, any of them?

"Matt Williamson was locked inside his sleeping compartment and wouldn't answer calls. The train crew was forced to break the door down with a sledgehammer, where they found Williamson... ...fast asleep."

Imagine being Miyamoto and having nightmares about the game's quality

Jeez bro you made that train person sound like he hung himself

I’m so happy this game is finally getting the attention and recognition it deserves. Zelda would not be what it is today without Link’s Awakening!

7:42 "If only there was some service that allowed people to buy older titles individually, like a virtual console or something....."

I wonder how many AA batteries were used up during that train ride🤔

I know everyone is talking about how Remix makes it sound like Williamson committed suicide, but I'm just dying over how when he talks about the staff having to break down the door, they show Link blowing up a cracked wall with a bomb

This game was actually quite a nice and unique experience. The musics and graphics were a real treat for my eyes and ears

4:40 I love how the kid is casually walking around holding a Game Gear... in a video about the Gameboy... IN THE EARLY 90s! 😂

The most underrated Zelda, such a classic. I played it while recovering in the hospital from surgery.

If Link's Awakening has taught me anything, then it's to never do it without a condom.

That train story in this video almost gave me a heart attack. Seriously at 5:00 I thought the kid died or something

This is releasing 4 minutes before my lunch ends. *but I got time*

i would imagine a remake of Oracle of Ages and Seasons.

Remember when Chugga played this game years ago? Man, that was such a good lets play... like all of his lets plays.

I hope that with the success of this remake we could also get Oracle of ages and seasons remakes in this art style!

“..is becoming harder and harder to come by” When you own a copy of the Link’s Awakening

"where they were forced to sledgehammer his door" *Oh no not on the train ri-* "Where he was sleeping with the Gameboy at his side" *Oh god damn it don't do that!*

That ending on the train was not what I expected.

why did the tone suddenly shift on that "dude was sleeping in his compartment" story like it was gonna end with "and they found him dead"

He was just sleeping in his bed...menacingly!!!

The train ride story reminded me of Paper Mario 2

>Harder and harder to come by Gee Nintendo, if only there was a free, digital historical record of games that people could play...like ROMs or something....

I remember my big bro always playing Zelda 1 & 2, very fond memories, but Awakening I hold dear to my heart, it was MY first Zelda game I ever played and I absolutely loved it. I would always play it when big bro was at school or something (I must’ve been like 2 or 3) and erase my file before he got home because I thought he would be mad (even tho I know now he wouldn’t)

5:00 his tone here legit made me think the guy was dead

5:00 "Matt Wiliamson was locked inside his sleeping compartment and wouldn't answers his calls" Me: ಠ.ಠ "They found Williamson... _fast_ _asleep_ " Me: phew...

5:10 WHY DID YOU SCARE ME LIKE THAT

First I thought you were gonna say the train drove off a broken down bridge, then I thought you were gonna say the Sleeper had died in some way lmao. I assume that the tonal shift was on purpose for suspense purposes but a lot of people sure seem mad about it haha.

Did you know: This game will release tomorrow?

I remember the slide puzzle in skyward sword as a make your own dungeon type of puzzle that I enjoyed chaining as many rooms as possible together. It’s like a puzzle within a puzzle.

5:00 what the hell was that?! You make it sound like he was dead!!

Remember to visit the Crane Game when you find Marin!

I'm so glad Link's Awakening has a surprising amount of fun history and impact on the series, I feel like I'm one of the few people who really cares about it :')

Amazing, I never imagined that there could be a connection between Zelda and Twin Peaks, I'm a big fan of both.

Really happy about this remake! Links Awakening is one of my favorite, and first, Zelda game!

5:00 “They got us in the first half, not gonna lie!”

I've never felt so much fear and intimidation until this video's train ride story *_And I love it_*

It's unbelievable how this amazing game was on the Gameboy. Nuts.

Even though I'm more of a Mario fan than a Zelda, I would have totally participated in that contest if I had the chance.

That's funny. I'm marathon-ing Twin Peaks this month.

I never played Link's Awakening but I read the manga and man does it hit you hard.

Wait, Twin Peaks?? .....Game starts with a body (Link) discovered on the shore, there's an owl that's not what he seems, there are creatures in red that walk backwards, seemingly out of nowhere references...(also realizes it's now sitting next to Deadly Premonitions on his Switch dash.)

People are losing their verification for their channels and it sucks.

I'm happy that Link's Awakening was officially moved to after A Link to the Past. Because it never made sense it being after Oracles (despite the boat reference), because it was a different Link (Oracles Link has a Triforce mark) that met Zelda for the first time at the end, lol.

Twin Peaks, of all things... Now this makes me want for Nintendo to raise the bar my making one inspired on Silent Hill.

Good luck with Eagle's Tower, everyone.

"Miyamoto has nightmares of gamebreaking zelda bugs" Oot / MM speedrunners: whaddup

Link's Awakening is the best Zelda game ever made. Where some of the other games might be more impressive or have more intricate stories there is zero fat on Link's Awakening. Everything is so tightly designed and polished with virtually no real flaws in it's design and pace, I truly believe it's the most objectively good Zelda game.

Hooray, you used my touch-up of Tarin's artwork! I can tell because the hair is a bit too light.

That Metroid shirt (2:53) is pretty bomb.

My first Zelda game! So happy it is being remade!

The idea of people making their own dungeons in a Zelda game dates back to the original game, The Hyrule Fantasy, where it was a scrapped concept that you could make your own dungeons and then show a friend and watch them play the dungeons.

I played this game almost as much as I played Pokemon red/blue. Absolutely one of my favorite Zelda games

I love that link writes his name on the back of his shield like "If lost please return to link"

This video made me wanna boot up link's awakening to play it a lil before the Remake comes out tomorrow, and i dropped my gameboy during the intro so now i have a save named "AAAAqA" and i got all the heart containers, 927 rupees, i can only use bombs as i have no other form of attacking, i got all the keys to all the dungeons, all the octorocks are now flying ones, i got 80 Seashells, and half the instruments i am losing my shit lmao

I was thinking that they would do the Link's Awakening Switch video after the game is out.

At 6:54 Eiji talks about Nintendo asking him to make a new IP, I wonder if and when we will ever find out what that could be! It makes me excited!

"He's just the kinda guy to make a fishing game, you don't even need to ask him to do it" ❤️❤️

Now they just need to re release all three Oracle games made by Capcom yes I know only two got released but there was initially supposed to be three.

Fun fact: Because the development team (aka the afterschool club) was working on Link's Awakening under the radar, and that official art for Zelda titles-- up until Ocarina of Time -- had been outsourced to animation studios, a person from Toei Animation factually contributed to the game's production.

every time I find out something about this game it just further impresses me like knowing that this game had an affect on how Ocarina of Time was made

Dungeon maker actually reminds me of that one dungeon in Skyward Sword where you could arrange the rooms in different order, maaaaybe that's a very early way of testing this?

What up. I love the art style for this new remaster. It’s so cute.

Great. Now give the same treatment to Wario Land pls.

Link's Awakening is the first game I ever played and finished. I saw my cousin get a GameBoy for his birthday one year and little me was fascinated. A few months later, I got a GameBoy of my own, along with a copy of Link's Awakening. (My mom just saw the name Zelda, was under the impression that you played as her, and thought her daughter would enjoy playing a female character. Keep in mind, this was the mid 90's. Video games were still seen as "nerd shit.") I loved the game, especially since, as a kid living with abusive grandparents, LoZ: LA, at first, served as an effective escape. But the more I played, the more I loved it. (Plus, that ending stuck with me for quite a while and is one of the reasons that I still love games with thought provoking story elements.) By the time I was 10, I had acquired quite a few GameBoy games, as well as a Sega Genesis. If not for this game, I might have never discovered my love of gaming. I'm now 33, with a PS4 and a DSi. But I will never forget the awe and happiness LoZ: LA brought me when I was just a kid in elementary school, looking for a way to deal with all the shit I was going through.

You lead up that Williamson Train story like they were about to deadass discover a train murder mystery and you blindside me with a happy ending what the hell man i didnt even finish

5:08 you got me good there. I'm glad that wasn't anything that I expected to hear

Oh boy am I excited for the remake - the original was my very first handheld video game, and I LOVED it. my hopes are high

One of my most favorite beloved zeldas for sure

Interesting...Jirard, The Completionist, was given a similar challenge to beat certain parts of _Hyrule Warriors_ during a train ride to Nintendo of America. Unfortunately, he failed the challenge, but we did get to see him dance around in a Tingle suit.

I remember getting a game-breaking glitch in the 7th dungeon as a kid. It really pissed me off.

“We’d do our regular work during normal work hours and then work on it...like an after school club activity.” Imagine loving your job that much, no wonder these guys became legends.

Why did you put '(Nintendo Switch)' in the title? It makes no sense, you talk about both versions, and GB even more.

Great, now I get nightmares about Bob AGAIN

Bruh why did you have to scare us like that with that story about the guy sleeping on the train

You know links awakening getting moved before the oracle games makes no sense. They're a few of the games that actually had a continuity.

Ocarina of Time was the very first Zelda game I'd ever played due to a friend owning it, but Links Awakening was the first game I'd ever owned. I really should have known that LA inspired a lot of OoT

That’s funny, I was just talking about “Twin Peaks” at dinner the other night. The new Netflix show didn’t even come up, everybody was just talking about weird shows from the 80s and early 90s. I was a toddler when the show was airing, so I’d never even heard of it until the tribute to it on “Psych”.

This video was super good I had no idea that this game began as an hobby kind of thing!

Did you know This game had nudity and gun rumors *can we get those remade*

"where they found williamson fast asleep with his gameboy still at his side" IF THAT AINT MY CHILDHOOD IN A NUTSHELL

Miyamoto: Item duplication... wrong warping... clipping through walls... no!!!! *wakes up* Oh, it was only a dream, it's okay...

Never heard about that train ride thing before, sounds like a hoot and good marketing

Morita unironically likes fishing memes

The twin peaks part is pretty cool since I live in Seattle and I was just playing links awakening on switch during a car ride to snoqualmie (where the show was filmed)

While I'd love a Zelda Maker, I fear for Zelda Classic's future...

Top 5 Zelda games 5. Twilight princess 4. A link to the past 3. Majoras mask 2. Oot 1. Botw

Twin Peaks be touching everything i like

This is pretty much the last video I ever would have expected to have a photo taken at Knoebels, and yet there it is!

So what you're saying, is that when the Completionist was challenged by Reggie to take a train to their headquarters and try to finish Hyrule Warriors DX before he arrives, it was a clever reference by Nintendo to their old Link's Awakening promotion?
