Info:
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, is an action-adventure game developed and published by Nintendo and the fourth installment in The Legend of Zelda video game series for the Game Boy in 1993. It is the first game from the Zelda series to appear on a handheld game console. The game is believed to be a direct sequel to The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and if so, stars the same incarnation of Link from that game.
A remake called The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX for the Game Boy Color was released in 1998. The latter is compatible with the Game Boy Printer and features a new color-based dungeon. It can be played on a regular Game Boy, but the color dungeon is inaccessible. It is unknown what the DX in the title stands for, although a Nintendo employee has confirmed that it does not stand for "deluxe", as many online forums have suggested.
Plot: (Spoiler's Obviously)
This is the first game in the series to take place outside Hyrule and the main "Triforce" storyline. This is also the only Zelda game not to feature Princess Zelda at all, except in the game's dialogue.
After training abroad, Link is sailing back to Hyrule, but is shipwrecked in a violent storm. He awakens on Koholint Island, and is taken to the house of a kind man named Tarin, and his daughter Marin (who bears a strong resemblance to Princess Zelda). A mysterious owl tells Link that to return home, he must awaken the Wind Fish by gathering and playing the eight Instruments of the Sirens. The bosses in Link's Awakening, who guard the Sirens' Instruments, are said to be the Nightmares of the Wind Fish. When Link plays the Ballad of the Wind Fish with all eight Instruments, he can enter the giant egg atop the Tal Tal Mountains, where the Wind Fish slumbers. There he must face the final Nightmare, shadowy apparitions which include umbral visions of foes from Link's past. Upon defeat of this nightmare, it is revealed that the entire island is merely a dream of the Wind Fish. By playing the instruments again, Link ends the dream. He and the Wind Fish are returned to the waking world.

Who else loves this game?
I'd have to say it is by my favorite Zelda game(barring OOT) ever made. It's just oh so well done. The Characters are so memorable. It had the perfect balance of Dungeon's And Non-Dungeons Experience. It seems to get really underrated in terms of Zelda games. I can't believe some of the other Zelda games that get more love then this one (not going to name any
So does anyone else like this game? Or am I insane for loving this game?
