Zelda 2 is really good, but a lot of people see it as the black sheep of zelda, because the mechanics are so much different, and it's so difficult.
AlttP is my still fave zelda game.

I loved Zelda 2.. I was very young and didn't get very far. I really should try it out again. The music is amazing, in that game.

I've never played Zelda 2. I've only heard people say how much it sucks. I should give it a try sometime though.

You should, because it's actually pretty great. People tend to exaggerate the difficulty (which tends to be the only reason it gets hate aside from simply having different gameplay) IMO, as, aside from Death Mountain and the end, it really isn't that much harder than a lot of other NES games (and it sure as hell has aged a lot better than most of them as well, including the first game).

All old school games are way harder than modern games. They didn't cater to the masses back then.

Well, it can't be any worse than the CDI Zelda games...

I stopped taking the Zelda fanbase seriously a long time ago, so I have no idea if they do compare Z2 to the CD-i games often, but anyone that does obviously hasn't played the former.

I was more just using the worst Zelda game possible as a reference to how lucky people have it that Zelda 2 isn't as bad as people claim it is. basically I was saying that Zelda 2 could have easily been Zelda on CD-i. I don't know what i'm saying anymore actually.

Don't worry. It's 2AM where I live at the moment, so I have no idea about half of what I'm saying anymore either. :p

I was just assuming that they compare them often because they're side-scrollers.
