    I tried so hard to beat Zelda 2 when I was a kid, and could never make it through the final castle. You had to do such a slog gathering hearts and battling through swamps to even get there. I made it to the fight with your shadow exactly one time and got my ass handed to me. I love Zelda 2, but damn.

      Same here. I took a weekend to finally finally beat it on emulator, doing save state after every hit.

      Even filled to the top on magic and life going into the last boss, it’s insanely difficult.

      I didn’t even manage to win shadow link as an adult with save states. Finally gave up and resorted to the cheese tactic just so I could finally put this awesome game to rest after 25+ years.
