I love the gif in the OP.
I use a big version of that as my computer wallpaper.
Brofist! I prefer the original version too.
Lots of Zelda games have poignant emotional moments. What specifically worked for you in this scene?
I love this game so much I used it as my phone wallpaper. I have so many fond memories of it. It the first game I've ever finished. I used to play it on my big brother's Game Boy. Plus the soundtrack is lovely.

Easily my favourite Gameboy game and my favourite Zelda, also the first time I saw a name for Mario's Chomps, so they're always Bow-wow to me (taking him for a walk was great).
• By the way, there were several characters in this game that also appeared in Mario. Was that your idea, Mr. Tezuka?
Tezuka: We’d had concept art for Bow-Wow lying around for awhile. We’d put it aside thinking we might make use of it if we could, but someone discovered it and ended up using it for their own purposes.
Same here.
Anyways, as much as I love the game I gotta echo the opinion that the game can be a little cumbersome. Moving around the overworld becomes such a chore as you're having to constantly switch items to move through out the screens. It's also stupid that the Power Bracelet is an equipable item, while the Flippers aren't.
I'm gonna be honest, I never found Link's Awakening to be that great. The world was incredibly annoying to navigate (as were the menus and equipment), the dungeons were weak (the only game with less memorable dungeons is Twilight Princess), and the story was too predictable.
Although I do give it props for being the first game in the series to really have me remember the characters (I find LTTP to be vastly superior, but I don't remember a single character from the game). And the sword combat was the first time in the series where the sword wasn't incredibly annoying to use.
It's definitely a good game, but it was outdone by Seasons/Ages and Minish Cap, even though those have many of the same problems as well.
Nah, it just means you retain a part of your rupees since you still need to actually buy the item - you just interrupt the game from detracting the full amount from your wallet by saving-and-quitting right in the middle.Doesn't that just mean you can buy the bow sooner since you wouldn't have to wait until you got 999 rupees? ie, After reaching 300 rupees, you'd be able to buy it (assuming it's in the shop, which I think is triggered by buying the shovel?).
I think the vast majority of people here will say that TP's dungeons are easily some of the best and most memorable in the entire series.
I only ever see people remember two of them. The Arbiter Grounds one and that one in the sky.
What about the Yeti's house?
Awesome! Glad you're loving it. I feel the same.Wow. I'm playing through it for the first time right now and I'm at the boss for Level-7. Meaning I'm very close to the end. Looks like I'll beat it today on the 20th anniversary.
I never thought I'd say this, but I'd rank it among the best in the series.
I haven't played Ages/Seasons, though, but plan to soon. How do you guys feel it compares to LA? I'm assuming they're built off essentially the same engine.
[edit] Q - was the 'Color Dungeon' or whatever it's called only added in the DX version to show off the GBC capabilities? What else was new?
and it's still got the most epic intro of any Zelda
What about the Yeti's house?
D'awww, I love that dungeon <3 Snowpeak! Fantastic area/dungeon music. And a legit scary boss. AND TASTY SOUP! It's got everything.
I felt so bad when I had to fightYeta. She was so nice.

Dude, when the music kicks in.... Goosebumps!
I also got the original version as a kid. Fantastic game that still holds up very well today, especially the music and the amazing love for details, the funny dialogue and... NAKED MERMAIDS!
I love it.
You probably think this is clever, but it isn't.
...what? There's a five year gap between TP and SS, I was just saying that it sucked having to wait so long :S
Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks are Zelda games.
Brotherrrrrrrrrr.I remember I got stuck for two years because I couldn't find the Yoshi doll. [SNIP]
Great game though!
I abused the select glitch in the original version so much that the fish in the fishing minigame were worth random amounts of rupees. In every save file. My copy of the game was "ruined" forever.
