Cause it contained what we call industry standards now. Ppl had never seen lock-on targeting before, atomatic jumping, or graphics of that calibure. It's considered the Casablanca, Godfather, or Star Wars of gaming. (however you want to put it.) I don't think many had seen a game that long before either.

It was an amazing(ly) (surprising) transition from 2-D to 3-D, for any game. It had the best video game story at the time as well.

I guess so many ppl think of that game when you say Zelda. And did so much for the gaming industry ppl just never forget it.
