Zelda 1 takes place on LttP Death Mountain area. :o
- Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.
There's also this in Zelda 2:

And I never thought I would play playing through Zelda 1 this soon.
I would NEVER do it without a map guide and save states nowadays though. I want to enjoy the interactive experience much more than beat the challenge of this game by killing 8 quickly moving enemies with a butter knife sized sword (much easier to do it in 5-10 attempts using save states, and surprisingly only slightly less satisfying)... am I the only one here who found the notoriously difficult Zelda 2 WAAAAAY easier than the first one?

It helped Nintendo sell Nintendo Power due to that.
Hell I don't even think Castlevania II: Simon Quest is beatable unless you had that one issue of Nintendo Power that tells you to kneel at a wall.
