15 days later and still no awakened Zelda...

Well, I still haven't beaten Zelda II. I am on the final castle/dungeon/temple, but it is proving to be near impossible. I could sit around and try to kill Octoroks for 20 years but I don't have the patience to do that.
What I did do though was pick up the first Legend of Zelda. Now I haven't given up on Zelda II, but I need a break from that montonous game over crap and seeing Ganon laugh in my face.

I have been really enjoying Zelda since I started playing it again. I will admit, I am using a walkthrough, but only because I want to get every heart piece, item, rupee hideout, etc.
I have beaten the game before without a guide, so it's not like I'm cheating on my first play through.

One thing I have to say about both of these games is that they are both still tough for me to this day. Now I know some people out there are saying "well you must be a bum because I can play both of those games the whole way through with my eyes closed"
This is what I say...."Good for you."

I've got other things to do besides play a video game every day for 20 years just to have it memorized.

All in all, I would like to say one things.

They just don't make 'em like they used to. But I will also say this, I absolutely loved Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, etc. There's just something about those old classics that just presents a challenge every time you play.

Your thoughts?

Zelda II

Finally downloaded the 3DS Ambassador Games last night (First 10 NES Games).
Stupid Zelda II is still as hard now as it was a few years ago.

Definitely going to wear my patience thin....haha.
