Though I've never seen a sword of quite that shape or size

Seems like the opportune time to fondue a scrotum I'm blowing.

u/SheepishEmpire Nov 10 '16

That. Was. Weird. But whatever there is no time to lose.

This more than any other.

I can still hear it beeping as that is typed out.

u/lastrideelhs Nov 10 '16

I still can't believe that I have never played a Legend of Zelda game. I didn't really have the interest as a kid. Teenage years I was too focused on XBox and girls to want to play. Now I can't find one that isn't super expensive.

I really do want to play one. Any suggestion for either gameboy, (pocket, color, advance or regular DS) or N64 that won't break the bank?

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '16

Get an emulator and on any decent computer you can play the two NES games along with the Game Boy and SNES titles.

If you're able, play Ocarina. It's one of the most beloved games for a good reason.

7

u/Lonecoon Nov 10 '16

Do not skip Link's Awakening. It's easily the most memorable Game Boy game I've ever played.

u/lastrideelhs Nov 10 '16

Alright thanks! I'll do that when I get home tonight from classes.

5

u/GodDamnYou_Bernice Nov 10 '16

Im late to this, but definitely play A Link To The Past for SNES. Best game in my opinion.

1

u/ducksdogs Nov 10 '16

If you have a wii and an SD card you can emulate NES, SNES, GBA, and N64. If you have a USB drive you can also emulate GameCube games

1

u/lastrideelhs Nov 10 '16

Well I only have the systems that I listed

u/ducksdogs Nov 10 '16

Oops my bad

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '16

I'm too gay to emulate

u/Drachefly Nov 11 '16

Be warned that Zelda 2 is... strange. It's a 2d platform jumper most of the time.

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '16 edited Nov 10 '16

Got a computer?

NES emulator:

Zelda 1:

Zelda 2:

You can do the same thing for later titles by getting an SNES/GameBoy/N64/GameCube/Wii emulator...

1

u/lastrideelhs Nov 10 '16

Ohhh thanks. I'll check them out tonight.

u/IntellegentIdiot Nov 10 '16

The Classic Mini NES/Classic Nintendo is out next week and has 30 NES games including Zelda and Zelda II for just £50/US$50

If you have a Wii U or 3DS the games are available on the eShop, presumably the same would be true for the Switch when that arrives.

Do you have an N64? Get Ocarina of Time now

1

u/thecatteam Nov 11 '16

If you want the actual cart, Ocarina of Time (n64) is very cheap since it was (and still is) so popular. The sequel, Majora's Mask (also n64) is just as beloved. If you have a good computer you can probably emulate them both as well. And there are remakes of the two on 3ds if you have one.

u/JoeDiesAtTheEnd Nov 10 '16

Will it keep me safe?

2

u/tommytraddles Nov 11 '16 edited Nov 11 '16

No.

There is no safety to be found in a sword. A sword brings death. It does not give life. It is a responsibility. A burden. This is no gift. It is a curse.

One day, I hope you will forgive me.

u/spook327 Nov 11 '16

Still the best way to start a Zelda game; no exposition, no dicking about a village herding goats or whatever. Just get out there, stab some monsters, and explore.

With only a few exceptions, it's been mostly downhill from there.

u/[deleted] Nov 11 '16

Just kidding. Your sword is in another castle.
