Captured from an actual NES console and cartridge. Gameplay from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. The Adventure of Link is a direct sequel to the original The Legend of Zelda, again involving the protagonist, Link, on a quest to save Princess Zelda, who has fallen under a sleeping spell. The Adventure of Link's emphasis on side-scrolling and RPG-style elements, however, was a significant departure from its predecessor, which has given it a reputation as the "black sheep" of the Zelda series.Despite being one of the least popular titles in the series today, the game was still highly successful at the time and introduced elements that would become commonplace in future Zelda games. It was followed in 1992 by The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for the Super NES.
