Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is one of the best games ever made. Four Swords is a cool new multiplayer game. Together they make the bargain of the century.

Despite the all-encompassing excellence of Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker, many fans consider A Link to the Past to be the best Zelda game ever. Originally released in 1991 for the SNES, this, despite a few sound effect additions and the curious dumbing down of a couple of puzzles and snippets of dialogue, is a perfect conversion of that game.

Anyone who hasn't played this before will be surprised at just how similar it is to the newer Zelda games. It's got nearly all the same weapons and items, and the puzzles and gameplay are just as complex and interesting. In fact, lesser games are stilling ripping off the inspired fiendishness of the light/dark world and the various head-scratching puzzles it creates. Of course the graphics are rubbish–-they were pretty lame even back in 1991--but for once that really doesn't matter.

Clearly not wanting to be accused of releasing another "lazy" port, Nintendo have included a brand new multiplayer mode in the form of Four Swords. Entirely separate from the single-player adventure, it allows you and up to three friends to battle through one of three smallish dungeons cooperating on puzzles and mercilessly stealing each other's treasures. Although short-lived it's great fun and the perfect accompaniment to the magnificence of A Link to the Past. --David Jenkins

- Arguably the greatest game on the SNES and GBA
The third game in the formidable Legend of Zelda series, 'A Link to the Past' is an outstanding RPG (Role-Playing Game)/ Adventure created by Nintendo. Many would argue, it is one of the best RPGs for the 16-bit console generation. This is the first Zelda game for the SNES and remains a brilliantly crafted game, providing plenty of gameplay for all ages. Learn where Link once was to be found before Nintendo evolved the Zelda franchise with later masterpieces such as Ocarina of Time! Before I proceed further, I must state that its not necessary to have played the previous two zelda games, or know their stories, to enjoy this one. Zelda 3 works great as a standalone RPG on the SNES and can be picked up as a title in its own right.

- Perfect
This was my first Zelda, and I was worried it was just another average but overhyped game. After playing it I can honestly say this game's hype is well-deserved.

The main thing that makes this game brilliant is the amount of thought put into it. It doesn't ever really on cheap tactics like random battles, boring dungeons, or obligatory 'twists'. Instead, progression through the game is genuinely involving, with you getting stronger by acquiring items that actually change the way you can play. It also rewards exploration in the way no other game does, around every corner there is a great surprise, and it sucks you into a totally different experience from other games.

Another thing that is beautiful about this game is the atmosphere, ... Read More:

- one of the best games ever .. ever..ever....
i love this game, not only because it is one of the best games i have ever played, but also because it has a different feel to it than the other Zelda's. its like the daddyo of the zeldas, the one that was so massive and lasted you years.

Im glad its out for the GBA now because atlast its become portable. if you've never played it, you'll probably love it, and if you have, then youll know how re-playable it is.

Worth buying

- ONE OF THE BEST!
The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past was a fantastic game on the SNES and you know something, its just as good on GameBoy! I am so glad they have released this game on the little cart because now you can take this great adventure with you anywhere. I first got the game when the GBA SP was released and I was hooked! I was in London at the time but on the way back home to Newcastle on the train, I played this game none stop! The graphics are superb, the gameplay is smooth and there are loads of things to do, like finding certain clues out, meeting people, there are loads of weapons to use, different enemies and boss's to defeat, secrets to disscover and loads of areas in the game to explore!

The bit I like is going back and forth from the dark ... Read More:
