Always wanted to say that.
But, it's not entirely true. I'm looking for a game. Someone on here mentioned that there is a software out there that enables people to make ZELDA (The Legend of,)-like games for PC. You know, the tile-based game. I found something last night called Zelda PC, but I couldn't figure out how to get my sound card to work in DOS, so I gave up. That, and I couldn't figure out how to go into caves, so it seemed kind of pointless.
What I really want to play is the original NES Zelda game. So, I tried to find the NES Emulator with little successful. I found one that required me to compile it myself! And then there was another site that wanted to charge for it. Crazy.
Failing that, I just want something to play. My PC is outdated (300 Celeron) so most new games are out of the question. I've played all the Baldur's Gates, and I just got through playing Starcraft, so now I need something else, and something free would be preferred.
So, anyone know of a freeware/shareware (rpg-preferred) game somewhere? Or, where I can snag the Zelda ROM and the NES emulator? I have MAME, but those games tend to get old pretty fast.
