It was written by yours truly in swedish and has been machine translated by ChatGPT and reworked for an international audience. Please enjoy.
I could barely contain my excitement.
The clock on the wall was ticking away all too slowly. The more I stared at its second hand, the more it seemed to be moving backward. I can’t quite remember what the teacher in front of the class was actually talking about; it might have been something inconsequential like the great Swedish reign or about some dead king. At that moment, everything sounded like dull, incomprehensible murmur.
After saving my weekly allowance for several months, I had finally scrambled enough moolah to buy the game I longed for the most. Unfortunately, I had already used up all my gaming hours for that day, so it had to wait on the shelf until the next day. And now, that day had arrived.
Suddenly, it happened. The school bell rang, signaling the end of the day, and everybody scurried to put away their books and pens. I was probably the fastest of them all. The classroom continued to buzz as I threw on my neon green jacket in the coatroom. There was no time to tie my shoes; I simply put the laces inside and stomped them against the insoles instead.
It had been raining. Outside, the asphalt glistened, and a sharp wet smell hung in the air. Water splashed loudly to the sides as I ran home, my shoes becoming progressively soaked. To reach home, I had to run along a forest path that I usually was terrified of, but on this day I couldn’t care less, even though the darkness of autumn had fallen.
Once home, I haphazardly threw my clothes on the hall rack and ran into my room. I grabbed my Game Boy from the desk and threw myself onto the bottom of the bunk bed I was forced to share with my sister before I got my own room. I refrained from turning on the ceiling lamp and relied only on the reading lamp on the headboard. It was cozier that way. I directed the light towards the small green screen and flipped the switch.
Ping.
I still get shivers today from that familiar sound when starting up Nintendo’s portable game console. Like a warm welcome into an exciting world full of adventures. The game began.
A black sky, shrouded in dark clouds, unfolds over the horizon. Rain lashes against the lonely sailboat struggling against violent waves. Thunder roars ominously all around as lightning strikes as if doomsday is approaching. A lonely blonde boy in a hood clings on for dear life, the halliard wrapped around his arm to avoid falling overboard. Lightning strikes, and the boat breaks apart.
Outside, I heard the rain starting to hit the window again. Thunder rumbled in the distance. I pulled the blanket over my legs.
A girl walks by the sea. The storm has subsided, and the waves now gently lap against the shore, emitting a faint, soothing sound. Palm trees in the background indicate that it is an exotic location. Suddenly, the girl reacts. She sees something ahead and cautiously hurries there. A boy lies washed ashore, seemingly lifeless. She approaches, bends down, and tries to wake him. The camera pans up to the sky, and in the distance, you can see the silhouette of a large mountain. Perhaps it’s a volcano. At the top rests a gigantic egg.
I never owned a Super Nintendo, nor did I have a PlayStation. I relied on 8 bits to live out my digital adventures conveyed through a greenish 2.6-inch screen and a small monophonic speaker (I had no headphones). Of course, this machine couldn’t convince me with photorealistic graphics or CD-quality music, but I still managed to immerse myself in the games.
Today, when I look back on that game about the little stranded boy with his sword and shield, I, of course, remember the story, but not as vividly as the feelings I got from everything happening around outside the machine. But when it smells of wet asphalt outside or when I’m curled up under a blanket underneath the light of a reading lamp, I’m not reminded of that cold November month 20 years ago. Instead, I remember my great adventure on the exotic island of Koholint.
Funny how memories work that way.

Oh wow. The new remake of the Face Shrine music from Link's Awakening is stunning. The haunting orchestral rolling into the original chiptune playing alongside it is just gorgeous and really fits the theme of that part of the game too https://invidious.private.coffee/watch?v=2LadD4OOKYo #LinksAwakening #Spoiler

I think that you should now that “Tal Tal Heights” from #Zelda #LinksAwakening was translated as “Plateau Tartare” in the French version.

Finished normal mode of Link's Awakening remake with 1 death (...which is from first boss...), love it! Gonna do Hero Mode soon :D #zelda #switch #linksawakening
Spent most of yesterday on a 18 hour links awakening remake playthrough. I had played the gbcs original to near completion but never finished it.
I can now say it is my favorite zelda game.
Its haiku like story telling is why I love Nintendo games that have good stories the mother series in particular. Though links awaking is now up there with it. For some reason it reminds of twin peaks. Anyways A+ game. One of the best.
This room always creeped me out as a kid.
Ayé c'est le live. On continue Link's Awakening ?

Wir nähern uns dem Ende von moepis Fashion Week und da habe ich ein ganz besonderes Outfit gewählt. "Der #RetroGamer": Knallbunte Badehose mit #SuperMario-Sprites, ein beiges T-Shirt mit #LinksAwakening-Print als Gegenpol und auf dem Kopf eine Sonnenbrille & Kappe mit #N64-Logo. An den Füßen trage ich heute orange Strümpfe mit #Pacman-Logo und runde den Look mit dunkelblauen Adiletten ab. Ich trinke Kaffee aus der #DetektivPikachu-Tasse und wünsche einen wunderschönen Start ins Wochenende ✌️
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening
100%ed this switch port. Time will tell if the tilt shift and plastic look holds up but the orchestral soundtrack is amazing and just like the original the world and story are both a little dark and strange in a beautiful way. Unlike the original there are quality-of-life improvements (especially in controls) that make this version immensely more playable. #LinksAwakening #TheLegendOfZelda #OffTheBacklog #Gaymer

They found a couple of commercials promoting Link's Awakening, which turns 30 year

What a cute nuance from Zelda: Just started playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and while Link is cooking, he hums the Marin's song from Link's awakening:

Soy demasiado fan del principio de #LinksAwakening.
Siempre he pensado que nos merecemos un buen anime de #TheLegendOfZelda, pero tengo miedo de a quién se lo darían (tanto dirección, como estudio).
Digamos que se lo dieran a Mappa, que es el del momento, y como tienen a les diseñadores overworked and most likely underpaid fijo no sale cool.
Por otro lado, vea a ver si le meten 3D cuando Zelda debería ser puro 2D.
Entonces mejor que dejen así.
⚔ Coming Friday! ⚔
Grab your Master Swords! It's Crazy Tracy, the vendor of "Secret Medicine" from Link's Awakening!
Update will be in full color and uncensored for supporters!
Pretty proud of how this one turned out so… I’m posting here too!

What an amazingly charming game, honestly. I came into this kinda expecting a subpar experience, and I came out absolutely floored at how well designed and impressive this game is, let alone for the hardware it's running on. Consider me genuinely impressed! I'd definitely give this game another playthrough in the future without hesitation. :aliceheartblack:
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
This fight gave me quite a bit of trouble, had to do it twice, but I got it down in the end! :alicemlem:
All that's left now is to watch the ending cutscene and credits. Link's Awakening is done! :alice: 🖤

That's it! Just a few screenshots to update y'all. I'll be posting some clips here shortly along with some more thoughts on the game. This was really fun to get through, gosh. It's impressive to see what they were able to accomplish with the GameBoy, and it shows in that this such a well remembered title! It certainly lives up to its reputation. :alicemlem:🖤 ☀️
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
Gosh, this dungeon was uhhh... Definitely not my favorite.
Still! It was pretty funny to stun lock this boss. :alicemlem:
Let's finish out this game! :alicehappy: 🖤
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
Finally got through this dungeon! I had to look up a couple things at the end there, and gosh this boss fight gave me a bit of a hard time trying to figure out its patterns and what I needed to do, but this was actually kind of a fun one!... You know, despite getting utterly lost a few times due to the complex dungeon design. :alicesideeye:
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
Some more updates! Little points of progress up to the 7th sungeon. :alicemlem: 🖤 ☀️
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
Finally done with this one, gosh! I wish the solution to this fight wasn't so... Weird. Just feels out of place for the dungeon's theme. :alicesideeye:
Anyway, onward! :alicehappy: 🖤 ☀️
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
Got through this boss pretty easily, standard stuff. :alicemlem: 🖤
#gayming #LinksAwakening #AlicePlays #AlicePlaysLinksAwakening
Got a few more updates for y'all! I also snagged the boomerang before I got to the next dungeon, but forgot to take a screenshot. :alicesweat:

I stumbled across this article by @pmorinerie while thinking about taking another crack at developing a #Gameboy game. The methods used to create the parallax scrolling in the opening cutscene of Link's Awakening were super interesting to learn about! Check it out on their blog here: https://kemenaran.winosx.com/posts/links-awakening-rendering-the-opening-cutscene

There was SO MUCH for me in today's #NintendoDirect:
#Pikmin4 with Ice Pikmin AND A DOG
#GameBoy and #GBA on #NSO including #MinishCap #LinksAwakening #SML2 & #WarioLand3 with #Zelda #OracleOfAges & #OracleOfSeasons on the way
#MetroidPrime Remastered
A new #MarioKart8Deluxe DLC track based on #YoshisIsland
And of course, a look at several enemies & environments from The Legend of Zelda #TearsOfTheKingdom
This is shaping up to be quite a year for the #NintendoSwitch and gaming in general!
Anyway! Definitely making progress! :alicehappy: 🖤 ☀️

How was the amazing intro to "Link's Awakening" on GameBoy achieved? Here's an enlightening series of very well-explained articles with lots of GIFs and pictures on that (and much more!)

Comic to explain my last 2 posts about #LinksAwakening.
I had bumped into rocks so many times and gotten that annoying “heavy” text that the fact that needed an item to move rocks had been painfully nailed into my head. When I entered the cave in the Mysterious Forest I accidentally bumped into the giant skull and got the “heavy” text again. And then I was too busy pounding the A button to make it go away faster to notice that I hadn’t actually tried moving any of the rocks.
Eso que a una le gusta que le den tasks para hacer y me dieron uno super interesante entonces decidí que como premio por haber logrado hacer ese task iba a bajar videojuegos nuevos y pues así termine bajando #DisneyDreamlightValley y #LinksAwakening para #Nintendo #Switch.
I gave in and started googling play throughs to figure out how to get past the tanuki. Then I find stuff that's like "go here, go here, then move this rock..." and I'm like "but how do I move rocks??" So I google "how to move rocks" and I find this thing that's like "First jump over this hole..." and I'm like "YOU CAN JUMP OVER THE HOLES???"

Conocido también como Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru. Una aventura maravillosa que, si no me equivoco es el trabajo anterior a una de las cabezas del Link's Awakening de Game Boy. Gran premisa y puzzles, buenísimo!

@just_alex my love for #zelda started way back on the #nintendo Entertainment system when I was a kid. I’m currently using the Nintendo #switch to play #linksAwakening and #skywardsword.
Not to take away from #electionday but how about a fun "share your wallpaper" post to see what everyone's rocking! Here's my current one.
