WarioWare

The Legend of Zelda is one of 9-Volt's microgames in both WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!, falling under the Nintendo Classics category, and one of 5-Volt's microgames in WarioWare Gold. It is based on and takes place within the game of the same name.

Layout[]

Both iterations of the microgame takes place in the overworld within The Legend of Zelda, reusing graphics and the HUD from said game. In WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, the HUD is taken from the Nintendo Entertainment System version of The Legend of Zelda, and the microgame's graphics are brighter than in the original game's.

WarioWare Gold features a different layout on the overworld, in which Link instead has to cross a wooden bridge over the other side to continue up to the cave entrance. The HUD from the Family Computer Disk System version is shown instead.

Gameplay[]

The player takes control of Link, whom they must move to enter a cave. Level 1 features no obstacles, although level 2 adds a Peahat who flies after Link, and level 3 adds a Zora who shoots energy balls at Link. If Link gets hit by an enemy, he loses half a heart of damage, which is intended to slow him from reaching the cave entrance because it is impossible for Link to lose all of his hearts before the microgame's timer expires.
