GNGOAT Round 1, Match 17

Welcome to the Greatest Nintendo Game of All Time contest, first round.

The matchups were randomly decided.

I will put the matches up every other day, and each round will be open for three days (so there'll probably be 2 or 3 matches taking place at any one time). I want to get through the first round as quickly as possible.

ROUND ONE, MATCH SEVENTEEN

The Legend of Zelda:  A Link To The Past (SNES)

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is an action-adventure video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System video game console.  It is the third installment in The Legend of Zelda series. A Link to the Past uses a 3/4 top-down perspective similar to that of the original The Legend of Zelda, dropping the side scrolling elements of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Released to critical and commercial success, A Link to the Past was a landmark title for Nintendo and is widely considered today to be one of the greatest video games of all time. Over four million units of the game have been sold worldwide.

VERSUS

Super Castlevania IV (SNES)

Super Castlevania IV is a platform game developed and published by Konami and the first Castlevania game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It features expanded play control, 16-bit graphics featuring SNES Mode 7, and a soundtrack featuring brand new pieces and remixes based on previous Castlevania music. Upon Super Castlevania IV's North American release, the game was acclaimed by critics. The game sold a little over 500,000 copies worldwide.

WHO WINS? YOU DECIDE.
