Comments

Basicly after watching something called 'Let's Play Zelda' on YouTube and how disturbingly done it was I got motivated to try to do one of my own. Thus I decided to make 'Teach me Zelda' for a step by step trip around the Original 'Legend of Zelda' for the NES. The purpose here is to open up to all new players to this game where to find things, how to obtain every item, and get to Zelda without having a single death mark on record. Zelda is a very nicely well done game that has captivated the gaming world for about as many years as Mega Man, making it a very well known and loved classic.

Stage by stage comments

Obtain Bombs

Basically for the first part of the movie I was running around to gather rupees for bombs. That changed when Octoroks gladly dropped me some bombs, and I was moving on.

Get two more Hearts to life bar

After gaining the power of bombs and a nice rupee stash I opened up the first two hidden Heart containers. Enough for the White sword but with the rupee stash up there I decided to buy something else.

Purchase Blue candle and obtain HC 3

After we found two more Heart Containers, thought a third would be fun and informative. Also got the candle at the same time, hey every investment counts does it not?

Getting the White Sword

A small guide from the third heart container towards the powerful White Sword. Not really needed for Dungeon 1, but good to get ahead

Clearing Eagle Dungeon

A over-view and step by step guide to safely clear Dungeon 1. Every room explored and every item gathered.

Other Comments

The only thing I could of hope for to be better...was better control during the game play, but I believe it was well done nevertheless
Things to keep an eye on are locations, drops, and basically survival movements so that you can have that perfect run
What could of made it better? I probably think that would be how fast I did it, I done it faster, but sometimes a good slow pace wins the race in the end. Still I think speed will be the key to improvement.
For right now, I don't really think a screenshot is really needed, unless I am told otherwise.

DeHackEd: This is a tool-assisted speedrun site, so I'm rejecting this video for failing to use tools. I think you didn't check the various FAQ, Rules, Guidelines and other related pages on the site.

We won't forgive you a lot.
"Genuine self-esteem, however, consists not of causeless feelings, but of certain knowledge about yourself. It rests on the conviction that you — by your choices, effort and actions — have made yourself into the kind of person able to deal with reality. It is the conviction — based on the evidence of your own volitional functioning — that you are fundamentally able to succeed in life and, therefore, are deserving of that success." - Onkar Ghate

You submitted this to TASVIDEOS, did you notice that?
