I initially thought the same, but then if you look at the NES game, it has a good number of sprites on screen. May be because of hardware sprites? I don't know.
Released The Return of Traxtor, Golden Tail, Magica, The Dawn of Kernel, Kitsune`s Curse, Brick Rick and Hyperdrive for the CPC.

If you like my games and want to show some appreciation, you can always buy me a coffee.

It's using Mode 0, so it can have enough colours for rocks, trees and water on screen, but the hardware sprites are being used for Link so that he can appear to be in Mode 1 resolution and look exactly as he does on the NES.

The problem about the Legend of Zelda (NES) is the gameplay is too old and the difficulty form an other age.
Not sure that was the best choice for a CPC/PLUS port. At less, Link Awakening DX was prefered.

it's the best choice because people love the game, the name and the brand. They are also talking about it whereas there is almost nothing more than an intention
it's a marketing rule -> do not make new things, people are afraid of novelty

This game is not the prefered of peoples loving the name and the brand. Doing old things do not means doing the bad old things.

They will strike it down like they did with that fine port of Super Mario Bros on the C64 a few months ago.  Nintendo don't like fan-games or remakes of their properties and are extremely strict about it.  Unlike Sega who encourage it (and even hired Sonic fan-game makers to make Sonic Mania which proved to be a very positive move for them).   Nintendo isn't very fan friendly.

Loving the project!! Although yes, I am afraid Nintendo has never been the most fan friendly brand, actually, quite the opposite  :-X .

Yeah, Nintendo will kill this off. And they do find these projects, obscurity or retro never is enough.


Better to create a Zelda-esque Game Engine, and create a similar but non-identical game within it (i.e., new sprites, characters, plot, map).


But because it's an engine, it can be modded by a patch to have the Zelda imagery, etc.

Nintendo will strike this down and in doing so raise the profile of the CPC and encourage thousands of people to download a CPC emulator to try it out.


No bad thing...

Once Pandora's box is opened and it appears in the net, even Nintendo will not be able to stop it. Recently proved with the C64-conversion of Mario. :-) And you will get publicity for free worldwide. The problem only is: you can't take the glory in the public.

You might get a massive fine or worse still, go to prison, but you'll forever be a CPC Legend if you pull this off  ;)

ahaha yes sure ! but i won't get or want any "publicity" at all, first this game will never be "signed" with any of my name of nickname ... I use this game for learning code, i'm a noob and I like challenges :)
