Ahh Zelda! The many fond memories I have of this game. I remember playing through Zelda as a child and my Dad getting into as much as I was...and then even more so. He played through and then beat the hidden second world. He still does, I was surprised to come home, 20 years later and find him "trying to get the blue ring".

I remember being terribly disappointed by Link but playing through as far as I could anyways. The strongest memory however was the awe Zelda: A Link to the Past invoked. Entering the names on the original screen I knew that I was on the beginning of a magical journey. The controller was respectfully passed around so the entire family could enter their characters names.
