Item Description

Pull the Master Sword from its pedestal and the game is only half over. That moment, and the shock of what comes after it, is why The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is still the template for nearly every top-down Zelda adventure that followed. Nintendo's first Zelda on the Super Nintendo took the open-ended exploration of the NES original and gave it a story, a sense of scale and a world packed with secrets.

It opens on a stormy night, with Link following his uncle into Hyrule Castle to rescue Princess Zelda from the wizard Agahnim. From there, Hyrule opens up: Kakariko Village, the Lost Woods, Death Mountain and a string of dungeons that each hide a new tool, from the Hookshot to the Pegasus Boots and the Magic Mirror. Every item changes how you see the map, and the dungeons are brilliant exercises in using what you have just found. Swimming, lifting boulders and the satisfying spin attack all make Link feel more capable than ever before, and heart pieces and hidden caves reward anyone who pokes at a suspicious wall or a cracked floor.

Then comes the Dark World, a twisted mirror of Hyrule that doubles the size of the adventure and introduces the idea of crossing between two versions of the same land to solve puzzles. It was a stunning trick in 1991, and the series has returned to that light-and-dark structure again and again. Koji Kondo's score, from the rousing overworld theme to the eerie dungeon music, became the sound of Zelda for a generation.

This Player's Choice release comes from the line Nintendo used to bring its million-selling games back to store shelves at a lower price, a sign of how many players this adventure reached. It is the game that defined Zelda's structure for decades, the setting Nintendo returned to in A Link Between Worlds, and on original hardware it plays as crisply as it did the day it launched.
