About this Episode

It was a fixture for kids 1992. Every issue of Nintendo Power didn't just bring far-too-optimistic coverage of the games available on Nintendo's hardware, but it also brought another installment of Link's adventures through Hyrule. Nintendo Power worked with Shotaro Ishinomori to bring the events of A Link to the Past to life... but the problem is, he didn't do a very good job. Attractive character design and coloring is cold comfort compared with the dorky script and bad pacing. Link is sleepy, and so are we!
