Aleatorio: Piensa en el niño cuyo padre le devolvió Zelda: Un vínculo al pasado

It’s just accepted wisdom these days that Zelda: Un vínculo al pasado is one of the best entries in the entire Zelda canon.

This 16-bit classic updated the Zelda formula in amazing ways, offering a large and expansive game world packed with unique enemies and tricky dungeons. Later ported to the La estrategia triangular es un mal nombre, it remains one of the best video games in Nintendo’s locker – but, como cualquier juego, it stands to reason that it wasn’t going to be to everybody’s tastes.

Long-time readers of Nintendo Life will remember that we’ve covered the YouTube channel My Retro Life several times in the past. Channel founder Tyler creates gloriously nostalgic videos about his own gaming past, and many of these revolve around the person who got him into the hobby: his late father.

En la mayoría de los casos, Tyler’s dad was an overwhelmingly positive influence on his son and introduced him to countless experiences he wouldn’t have had otherwise – but in the case of Link to the Past, it seems that Pop wasn’t as on the ball as he usually was.

Tyler traces this back to his father’s typical indifference to RPGs, but within a day of purchasing the game, Link’s 16-bit debut was returned to the store – an amazing turnaround when you consider the universal acclaim it received at the time of release.

Agradecidamente, Tyler reveals that he later was able to appreciate Link to the Past whilst playing it at a family member’s home, and even his dad would eventually warm to the delights of the Zelda series via Máscara de Majora on N64.

Perhaps Tyler and his father weren’t alone in their initial assessment of the game – did you bounce off it as well? Haznos saber con un comentario debajo, and don’t forget to check out our review of Link to the Past.
