Hello!

I first played Legend of Zelda on the Classic NES 20 years ago. Back in the spring of 1988, just out of college, I would stay up all night playing until exhausted. Fast forward to present day: I overheard some “young” colleagues in the software department at work talking about Zelda. I pined nostalgically to play the game again. Thinking I would never see it again, they told me about LoZ for Gamecube (Collector’s Edition). I bought the system and game and felt like a kid again! I got married late in life, and now have a son of my own, so I’m busily buying up as many older GC Zelda games as I can (I had no idea there were so many new games since 1988!).

Sorry the intro is so long! I’m sure I’ll have lots of questions later.

Welcome to the world of ZU my friend. Mu dad also had the original for the NES and still does. I got into it, and brought him back into it as well.

Welcome aboard Gregg! :]
Man, I wasn't even alive yet back win the original LoZ came out xD
For it's time it was stellar though, and it's still a very fun game to play.
Anyway, enjoy your time here at ZU, and I'd be happy to answer any questions I can. Drop me a PM sometime if you need a pointer or two...especially if it involves Zelda theorizing

Do not pay attention to Erimgard. He doesn't know what he's talking about. I, on the other hand am a very experienced member and much superior to Erimgard and his cookies.

Oh, and welcome to ZU. I hope you enjoy your stay and all that.

Wow, you've missed out a lot, I hear. Maybe you should look into getting a wii, since they have downloadable Zelda titles. But if you got Collector's edition, then that might not be reason enough. I dunno, just giving you a tip ;-)

Thank you all very much for the warm welcome to ZU. I look forward to learning as much as I can about the games. Who knows, maybe I'll be able to share some insight after some time!

Solink, thanks for the newbie present! That looks like a sign you might see on route 375 on the way to area 51! Flying saucers have a way of causing accidents on the highway when they go invisible.

Lol good question, sometimes. Actually I kinda just started this today. Sometimes I'll add little things. Mostly I do this so they can have those links for reference or for help and its much easier on my part to just have something to copy and paste.
