Everyone copies Metroid and Castlevania but Zelda 2 was the better game and nobody copied it

What's up with that

Shadow Link pissed everyone off.

Also, the spell system was bad.

Zelda 2 would have made for a great Conan the Barbarian game IMO

Speaking of which, it's amazing how many times Conan fans got cheated on NES.

Demon Sword and Iron Sword 2 have Conan-like protagonists on the cover, but the in-game sprites are of a samurai and a knight respectively. The Astyanax commercial makes it look like a Conan-like game, but you're playing as a 16 year old high school student. And, finally, there's a Conan game which is terrible and is actually a port of a computer game about a library kid who gets sucked into a mystical world. They just changed the teen's sprites to Conan.

All 80s kids wanted was a decent Conan the Barbarian game on NES and they never got it. :<

I've seen some people consider it a proto example of Dark Souls

Games shouldn't require guides to figure out what you're supposed to do

Figuring out the cryptic bullshit in that game isn't a matter of "git gud", but a matter of wasting a lot of time doing un-fun things.

It's my favorite NES game. I liked the combat style. It had a huge open world. Decent graphics and music. It was kinda difficult, but I liked the challenge.
