Okay.

I'll take the annoying rupee worth reminder over this shit. I'm getting it when walking into damn near everything.
-
Still a better game than Skyward Sword. What's yer point
-

This is probably the most annoying feature in any game I've ever played, lol.

not much of an accomplishment
-
I don't even know what you're talking about but it sounds like the mewlings of some weaksauce casual gamer who can't even handle Nintendo babby games anymore.
-
LOL this is like the easiest Zelda ever. Dying literally has no consequences. At least in other games it kinda set you back a bit.
Platforming is pretty terrible though, so I can see why they made sure that there's no downside to dying.
-
enter a screen - oops i need to equip the glove! pause and select the glove
enter a screen - oops i need to equip the sword! pause and select the sword
enter a screen - oops i need to equip the feather! pause and select the feather
WHY DID THEY DESIGN THE OVERWORLD LIKE THIS

You died, though.

monkey needs banana in order for you to get into a dungeon, walk to the beach, go back to monkey. zzz

Back before Sony invented Real-Time Weapon Change™. :'(
This is also #2 on my most annoying LA things.
Why is the glove an equipable item and not like, a status buff (like in the far-superior Link to the Past?) Is there a reason for making it more obtuse? Is there any situation you DON'T want it equipped? Same for the sword.
-
Best Zelda, new Nintendo fans eat a dick pls.
-
I dunno, I think this game is pretty bad. It's got some cool ideas, but the execution is all kinds of fucked up. Not to mention the ridiculous limitations of the GBC hardware.
Never really understood the hype for this one tbh.
-
There's no reason to ever play LA when the Oracle games exist. Unless you're some nostalgia fetishist that is incapable of objectivity.

lack of buttons. nothing more, nothing less.
Its so obvious Andrex didn't grow up in the 90's
-
Still better than any Zelda since Majora's Mask.

yeah i can still enjoy the game because omg childhood memories but goddamn those hardware limitations. sad thing is that it was one of the first game boy games i thought was almost "console-quality" but it came out four whole years after the game boy was released. handheld gaming was a struggle back then.
-
Can't call it the easiest Zelda, you could actually bork your game if you used keys wrong in one of the dungeons if I remember right.
Loved this game but I was in second grade or something.
-
^you could do that in the seasons game too, which is why i never finished it

B could be the swappable item, A should always be sword, and the glove should be a passive buff. I don't see why having less buttons would make it *this* obtuse.

Never finished this game thanks to this.
Going a little off topic but still on the subject of old portable games, HOW CAN ANYONE PLAY POKEMON WITHOUT AN EMULATOR? I'm playing firered now and I can't even imagine how it would be like to play this thing without the accelerator, everything is soooooo slow!
-
Which button picks up the rocks in that scenario?
A, if you're right in front of a rock.
And how do you dash jump or bomb arrow?
B.
-
This game rocks, the item swapping is not a problem, your solution sucks

FireRed's probably one of the fastest entries in the series, lol. Don't play Diamond.

:jawalrus

B.
Don't think you're understanding. Those two actions require both buttons. Especially later in the game you don't always want the sword so locking one of the two buttons to it would have a been a huge design flaw.
This thread reads like you played a quarter of the game and threw up your hands in your new gamer privilege.
-
"New gamer privilege" -- you kids and yer "graphics." Back in my day, there was only green text. And we were GRATEFUL!

What motivated me to make this thread was realizing that I was going to see that fucking message throughout the entire rest of the game. The weapon switching is a little annoying but whatevs, it's GameBoy. But the glove shouldn't be a usable item IMO. Or after you get it, those messages should stop. Bumping into anything pops it up. WE GET IT

Realest talk on the Bore ever.
"nostalgia fetishist that is incapable of objectivity" could have been shortened to "Nintendo fan"
-
Fair deuce
-
Oracles are next on my list. Been wanting to play them since they came out. :lawd
-
when you get to it, just remember andrex that the game boy color had two buttons: a and b, and you'll do alright
-
I owned a GameBoy Color, I know what it's like. :gurl I had an OG GameBoy too.
Was always mad I never got a Pocket though. My cousin had one and it seemed soooo small and portable. :jawalrus

a nintendo fan getting annoyed at unnecessary tutorial message is like a corageous french,or a vulgar british,or a pizza hating italian... it just breaks the stereotype in a sad way :(
-
It's not even a tutorial. Just a constant annoyance, like a toothache while playing the game.

gameboy pocket :rejoice
my gbp owned

I remember when it first released, how crazy it was getting something mechanically similar to LttP on the Game Boy. I'd expected GB Zelda to be more like Zelda NES, so when I saw the first screen I was blown away.
anything that was above bargain-bin nes level quality on game boy back then was rare as hell. so when nintendo started making sure their handheld games were quality titles with lots of content and great graphics it was mind-blowing. this + mario land 2 made the gameboy into something worth having instead of being a wasteland of barely-coherent throwaway titles.
-
The reason it seems "elevated" is because so many entries in the Zelda series aren't very good

Nah, it goes beyond that, Yeti. Lots of people will argue LA is the best Zelda, and I just can't see that angle no matter how I look at it.
Everyone loves their first Zelda like it was the best

Zelda NES was my first Zelda, this isn't like FF7 being peoples first FF and pretend that it's good.

i think a lot of the nintendo gameboy titles have a lot of personality,just look at wario land,everything about it is so cool

today nintendo could never pull a game like this

Links Adventure was my first Zelda, but that obviously doesn't count

Yup.

dur, thats why i said early gameboy, like 89-91. bullshit puzzle games and slightly interesting but half-broken games like seiken densetsu and castlevania adventure.
bubble ghost was cool tho

Going back to a lot of gb games via 3ds vc, I don't think many were that good in hindsight. I'm not even touching the game gear games. Even as a kid I knew that game gear sucked compared to game boy even if game gear was in color.

Wario Land was easily my most played gb game back in the day and I don't think even that is good anymore. Decent, sure. But as an adult it barely passes. At this point, I think Dragon Warrior 1-3 are the best game boy games.
-
those were gbc games :gurl
-
GB, GBC, whatever.
-
I didn't say gb games were shit. There were and are a lot of great game boy games. But many I used to think were the bees knees, compared to my standards today, really don't hold up. I don't think anything I said was much of an overstatement.
