I can’t believe it’s been so long since The Legend of Zelda came out in 1986. Anyone else have some fun memories of playing the original? I’d love to hear your thoughts on how it’s evolved over time.

The original Legend of Zelda holds a special place in my gaming memories. It’s wild to think how far the series has come since 1986! The way the game has evolved over the years is a testament to its lasting impact on the industry. I came across a great retrospective in 1986: The year The Legend of Zelda debuted that looks back at the evolution of the game and how it continues to influence modern titles. It’s definitely worth a read for fans of the series.
