Man I must have missed that on the list. I love the Zelda games too.

Never heard of it. What's this Legendary Zoldo of which you speak? Some clone of Golden Axe Warrior perhaps?

It's just some shitty Hydlide rip-off.

Zelda was just a rip off of 1983's Atic Atac:

Not really, but there are some striking similarities graphically and in elements of the game design.

No, it's just a knockoff of Adventure for the Atari 2600.
Insert clever quote here.

Yep, it's a legendary "kusoge", I bet it didn't even become a series it was so bad. I wonder what happened to the developers of that game? I bet they got run out of the industry.

Who names a princess Zelda, anyway? Why not just go straight to Brunhilda or the long form of Zelda, Griselda, and let it fade into obscurity where it belongs.

Apparently Robin Williams named his princess that. ;)
