Then and Now: A Graphical Change Zelda

Oct 25, 2008 Graphics

Lets start this off by looking at the graphical difference between some of the latest saga releases and their first appearance on the Nintendo games consoles. First to my mind was the massive difference between the first and current Zelda games:

Then: The Legend of Zelda - 1987 (NES)
The first in a tremendous series of games in the Zelda range. I though the best part of this game was dropping bombs by the rocks to reveal hidden passage ways, a tactic the games still use today. I also recently downloaded this on the Wii’s Virtual Console.


Now: Zelda - Twilight Princess - 2006 (Wii/GC)
The latest release in the Zelda catalog and the games have just got better and better over time. The Wii version really lets you experience the Zelda effect with swinging sword, if only you rode the horse link on G1 Jockey.
