"Why didn't Nintendo ever revisit the design of Zelda II??"

Because they were waiting for a cool-af transbian furry to do it for them:

@ClarusPlusPlus the metroidvania genre is my favorite, and i've been on the zelda 2 is an important proto example of the genre along side castlevania 2 since day one! im old, and i cannot wait to play this!

@PinballWitch Thanks, that really means a lot to hear! ^_^ Zelda II is easily my favorite NES game of all time, and I always felt like there were some good ideas in there that just needed a little fleshing out, that could really expand well into a Metroidvania-like design if given a chance.

@ClarusPlusPlus the little bounce back when you hit the enemy with your sword brought me back to my childhood. Nice attention to detail! Wishlisted.
