Love Zelda 2. People who hate on it are just bad at games.

Kid-Me could somehow navigate that final Zelda II dungeon based on nothing but dumb luck.

Now I can barely get past World 1-1 in SMB.

Maybe they are playing it in emulators. I tried it in a Switch emulator and the input lag made it is almost unplayable.

I only have played it in the 90’s on the NES l think.

It's not even that hard. Just gotta grind a bit and level up before you head to death mountain and the rest of it's a breeze. Those people would have fucking hated final fantasy.

I did too. I'm actually in the middle of playing through a fan remake of it with a ton of quality of life improvements:

Yeah I liked Zelda II. It was definitely different than what you were expecting from a sequel to the original in terms of gameplay. But I remember it had its charm and I seem to remember finishing it. Probably a lot of other kids didn’t like it.
