- The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages
- The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
Coming to Game Boy (NSO) today - July 27.
Yes yes yes a thousand times yes. These 2D Zelda games don’t get enough love.
I bought one of these back in the day, but never got very far in it. I tried them briefly on emulators a couple times over the years but still never really made much progress.
In comparison to other Zelda games, I just seemed to keep getting lost or stuck in these. Did anyone else have a similar experience? Maybe I’ll give these a try again while following a guide.
Yes! This was my first Zelda game growing up and to this day I haven’t beat it. Lol. Something about these games just make them a little more challenging compared to other Zelda games.
However this really excites me and I’m gonna give these another shot (the nostalgic difficulty)
There is definitely a spot early in Ages where it is very easy to get stuck and not know how to progress, right after the second dungeon. Every time I’ve played the game I’ve ended up spending a least an hour wandering the map trying to figure out/remember how to get the Rope and the Flippers.
There’s also the fact that the dungeon puzzles are some of the more difficult ones in the series. It’s actually expected to get temporally stumped from time to time.
I’m just glad this is going to enable more people to try these out. They’ve always deserved more attention than they’ve received - I feel like many people playing for the first time will be surprised by how substantial of a Zelda experience these are.
Wish they could’ve made a remake with them in the new Zelda engine, but I think having a way to play these games is better than not having one
duck yes
