Chip & Dale 3 😂😂😂

Please make an episode for NP #9... I need a new Nintendo Power Time Machine in my life!!!! Hear my plea 😂

I am a better person because of Chrono Trigger.

I come back to this video a couple times a year just for the feeling of nostalgia. And it never disappoints 🎉 thank you for making this.

This game has a lot of class. It was my first Zelda game. I remember acquiring it in the late 90s. I couldn't even read yet and I was attempting to play it. I would have to call in my parents or my sister to read the dialogue from all the characters so I could know what to do. If they were busy I would explore the map and discover secrets. I remember when I found the ice rod I was so amazed like it was a secret Item I found early access to. I eventually got older and when I was six I started to understand the game more and actually made it to the tower of Hera. I was so amazed. I thought it was so cool to be able to take this warp and end up in what I called a "haunted hyrule" because when I looked at my map I found a dark and dreary landscape that resembled Hyrule. As I climbed the tower I could never figure out how to drop down to the big chest to get this moon pearl I had heard about. So instead, because I had access to the boss, I faced him instead since he could be defeated with my sword. Then Sahasrahla tells me I can get the master sword. So I rush to get it, and am scared as I am told Zelda was kidnapped. I rush to Sanctuary to find the priest was killed. I instead go back up Death mountain and read that stone tablet with the book of Mudora and get the Ether emblem then head back to Hyrule Castle to face Agahnim. I remember being so excited. A game I had dedicated a few years of my life to and I was almost at the last boss. When I finally beat him, I was so amazed and yet perplexed as I transferred to the dark world. I never figured out how to get the moon pearl, so I ended up being a bunny as I appeared on top of the pyramid. I ended up using the magic mirror and spending an hour in the tower of Hera until I realized you could mess with the layout of the floor on both floors and land down below on the path to the chest. After this, I bought the Zora flippers and ended up exploring what I could of the Dark World, and acquired the Earthquake medallion. Then after finding the Dark Palace of the east, I really struggled with it to find the big key. I think it would be a month of my time before I got to the boss. Then the rest of the game went by quite quickly. I was 8 now and I remember having a gamecube at this time and yet I still played Link to the past. Then I finally beat it. when I did I was so amazed. It was something I played from a young age and likely took 4 or 5 years to beat. It felt like I really grew up and had been through a lot both in game and in my personal life. One great thing about this game is that all the items in Link's inventory are used all throughout the story. Nothing gets wasted and becomes a "only used this one in the entire game for a specific dungeon" sort of item. It has really aged well, and the sprite graphics will always have a timeless charm unlike a lot of titles on the NES and even N64. I still have my snes and every one in a while I have to do a playthrough. The SNES was really a 2d/16bit masterpiece and A Link To The Past is one of the crown jewels of the system, along with Super Mario World, Earthbound and Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2.

Cool! I never even payed attention to the people in the crowd much. I never studied them even for a second. I knew they were there, nothing more.

Why they never made a Super Mario World 2 on the SNES is beyond me? Instead we got Yoshi’s Island, and okay game but the baby crying drove me nuts. Super Mario World is such a great classic game.

I wish I would have kept my Nintendo & super consoles & games...

A top contender for best video game in history.

Super Metroid is my favorite game of all time.

When I was, the playground rumor was that if you beat the game fast enough, Samus would get naked. Ah, being a young boy! I also vaguely remember some spooky stories about who Justin Bailey was and his untimely demise.

It’s been a few years at this point but I just wanted to say that I recently discovered your channel and this is some of the best content that I’ve seen in quite some time!

Wall jumping truly is the one thing that unlocks SM's full potential. Great video!

Apple insurance and united insurance regarding nhes Bitcoin. New Holland El Salvador Bitcoin citizenship. National health electronic services. Nintendo health entertainment system. Same concept? Regarding how it is like a nonprofit organization about mutual technology communication boundaries. Needs social consent and approval... New York city became New Holland El Salvador for Bitcoin citizenship using Nintendo health care information services by making a DAAP such that mexico is following the east coast of USA with it's west coast matching at El Salvador being New York city? Hmm. Big deal topic about real id and social barriers of personal identity records and relations of content... The truth. 400 years of Mexico and New Holland for a side 3 citizenship for New York city union.

What is the last 8bit melody?

Where are you? Chris Hoolihan's basement?

let's be real, super mario world is the best game of all time shrek is the movie of all time

my uncle used to call my Nintendo a Nippondenso LOL

I REALLY miss you videos

Amazing piece! You probably should’ve mentioned its legacy in the many romhacks and Mario maker titles, but this was really, really great. Smw is my fav Mario game ever and I feel like I know every single thing about it and this still was very eye opening (especially the bit about how the music uses the same notes in different ways). I feel platforming games have yet to surpass the legacy of smw, and Nintendo has never outdone themselves in the 30+ years since regarding platforming; I don’t care how much people try to place the 3d ones above this title. It’s simply too tightly executed, with too many positive traits to list here (which would be redundant under such a perfect retrospective!). Anyway, great work, it’s easy to tell you love this game, and know what makes it so great. (This is your gameplay? I saw some really neat sequences!)

yo this video is awesome, by favorite part is other games zelda 2 was clearly inspired by

I loved this game when it came out-loved it so much that I bought it even though I already had a Super Nintendo. Yeah, it's quirky and it's difficult, but I think it's great.

As soon as you said the game wasn't that hard I thought to myself, *but what about MARSHY!?* lol

The Mu reference could be a play to a lost continent of Nu that many Asian countries canonize as real and believe all of their cultural enrichments come from

Gas station looks like a kaballah symbol

Miyamoto: the enemys are mean Also Miyamoto: the red stuff that you couldn't walk in dungeons is blood

It's a great game, but like a lot of old games, I don't put much stock in the story. One thing you could have gone into was the "Zelda is your ..." mystery which left people guessing if maybe Zelda and Link were siblings. A later version of the game confirmed that Link's uncle meant to say that Zelda is Link's destiny, that he was fated to save her. There was no familial implication or anything like that. But it's worded poorly. I think the fan works should be noted as well, for example if you were to ever remake this video or make a second part. Most notable are three that I know of. First is like a director's cut, it changes some of the dialogue to be less vague and more in-line with other Zelda games. It raises the limits of what you can carry. It raises the donation amounts so you spend just a little less time raising your bomb/arrow caps. It makes it so you can change directions while dashing. And it reworks the inventory a little bit, so the bottles aren't a sub-menu. Honestly it's the best way to play the game. There's also Parallel Worlds, a ROM hack which is aware you're using an emulator, and its difficulty takes into consideration your ability to save scum and use cheats. Therefore, it's difficult in ways not easily countered. A dungeon where you don't get a weapon. A dungeon that is all dark rooms. A dungeon that is all ice floors and pits. Also, it takes graphical considerations from future Zelda titles, and even includes puzzles from other Zelda games (you'll need to recall the Lost Woods pattern from the first game). Then there's the Randomizer. Not only does it move everything around (and do so logically so you can never be locked out), but you can play another mode, where you only need to collect 20 Triforce pieces, also scattered around. You can change the color of the hearts, disable the low health beep, and even change your avatar, to, say, the female lead from the anime Sword Art Online... and a bunch of other random characters. Including Zelda herself and other versions of Link. (And they all change with the tunic upgrades.) Why Randomizer? Well, you've done the main quest however many times, we all have. Needing to know where every secret is can be very helpful. Also, it's fun when you get a sword upgrade while escaping the sewers. (You can get bombs there, too, so you don't need to return via the cemetery.)

Absolutely fair #1 pick in my opinion. It's timeless and I still play it constantly, whether it be Randomized or the wonderful Ancient Dungeon romhack. I just keep going back for more. I know ALTTP randomizer gets the most attention and community, but I think people should really hop on playing more TLoZ 1!

Doing it for my boy Shigeru.

Currently playing on my smartphone 📱

My cousin and I had collected serieses 1-4. As and Bs. We split them 50/50. He traded the first two serieses and half of the 3rd for 3 Atari games. I don't remember what games he got all I know is that he did not ask me if it was okay to trade any of them considering i owned half the collection as a whole.

No it's Faxanadu.

“Even Mario staff is shocked course” that is a dope AF name!!! They definitely should have kept that!!! I still play all of these games. When I was a kid (born in 90), I’d play these games so much that I’d get blisters. I recently looked at my controller and realized I played it so much over the years that it had developed a hairline crack in it and felt a bit warped 😂 needless to say, I bought a new controller!

This dude nailed the most random SHIT that is so minted into memory! Circling Sears catalog ads. Naming EVERY friend that had which game. And how their house smelled! The goldmine at Toys R Us. That dopey Zelda commerical. Cartridge blowing techniques. I probably grew up with this guy. 😂

Watching this made me think about AVGN, and how much i missed this kind of stuff on youtube.

8:24 Yoshi is a confirmed stress eater. 😂

Im playing classic zelda for the first time . the world gives me the exact same sensation i feel when exploring in breath of the wild for the first time , i never realized how much they really recaptured the feel of classic zelda , its such a fun game i cant believe i missed out on it this long

To think in 1991 i was queuing up to buy the game at launch for the SNES to now 30 odd years later im still in love with link to the past holds a special place in my heart ♥️

Now that was a game review. 👏👍

If you've never played it, you gotta play Dragon Quest V

This video is great and took me right back to when I was I kid in the 80s playing the NES. Thank you!

Remembering the NES has never been remembered so beautifully. Masterful!

This brings back the very good and awesome simple happy times of my youth. Thank you for making these invaluable treasures.

Spy vs Spy was not a "Bad game" that was a competitive pvp duel

i watch this video one time each year... and i have tears everytime at the end

I wish I knew it after all these years as proof but as a kid I was experimenting with altering codes based off of ones I had written down and got one to work that started me at Super Macho Man with a 1-99 record.

Learned how to get through the Haunted Woods on the school bus.

Secret of Evermore

Nothing like a walk down memory lane. Nintendo Power was such a great magazine back in the early issues.
