Hi All, Douglie invited me to join in from the AtariAge chat, and I would love to play. I will be playing my original launch cart on the SNES. I just finished Link Between Worlds earlier this month, so I've been hankering to go back and play LTTP again Cheesy

Very, very nice! Welcome to the site. Enjoy the playthrough and we hope you'll stick around. I too will be playing the SNES, but on the Retron5. Cheesy

How's that working out? I've heard mixed reviews.

The only negative I have heard so far, is a guy locally that returned his to Crabby's store. I don't think he could quite grasp, that you need to hold the power in for what seems a little long, to power it up. I personally love mine a LOT.

I love it!  Gameplay is the same, I can use my SNES controller to play, and it looks stunning in HD. I've played several games on it already (NES, Famicom, and SNES for far) and nothing negative to report.

Sounds like I'll need to pick one up...

I'd love to play through something with you guys, but too much on my plate right now. I've seen plenty of speedruns and know the game fairly well, so I'll follow along and see if I help nudge people along or answer any questions.

Thanks, that HD sounds good! (wish it played Master System games!) I've had terrible experiences with other 3rd party machines, most notably the controller ports malfunctioning and the pin-connector gripping onto my games like a gorilla.

I don't want to hi-jack this Zelda thread, but one review I read said "highly recommended…just look out for a bug that wipes save states." That concerns me but maybe he got a lemon.

It does play SMS if you have a Power Base Converter.

I just saw that. It's something to consider.

I'm fairly certain that the power base mini works with it as well, for form factor and convenience (unless you want to play quartet or my hero, etc, the mini does accept card based games)

Since I've earned two endings in 999 already I'm going to devote some time to this for a little while.

Today's session was tough! Once we officially start talking about the game I'll share my experience with everyone.

I think I'm going to get in on this. Every other thread in this forum has a "new" next to it for me since.....well, just because. Link to the Past though, that's a game that can draw me in. Plus I have time off work in February to play.

Several years ago I played 1/2 to 3/4 of this game, I wouldn't give anyone grief for saying it was the best game all time. It's pretty awesome.

I'll probably try and play through the game the first week of next month since that's when I have time off. I'll play on SNES. You know, the Ess-Ness.

I wish they would have added the Game Gear Emulation to the Retron 5.  I would have bought it 1st day.
