It's Dangerous to Go Alone

I'm in the preparation stage of my plan, now. I've got the Zelda NES Virtual Console channel on my Wii (I heavily debated buying an actual NES system, but they're so expensive and there aren't many really good games for it anymore), set up my Wii and a small TV in my bedroom (in my parent's house, of course), and printed off a map of the Overworld (now tacked onto my wall). Below are some photos I took out of boredom:





My map spans 2 A4 sheets of paper, printed to the border. Each page covers EXACTLY 50% of the Overworld (the borders of the middle 2 map squares are perfectly on the edge of the page, kinda cool to me), and I've made only one annotation: the starting point (a little 'S' on the square where you start the game). I hope to make more annotations when I discover the secrets in the game for future reference (shops (hidden or otherwise), money-making game, good places for rupees, warps etc.).

I'll also need food 'n stuff. I'll work on that when I get there, it'll probably just be chips, solo/pasito and apples (to satisfy my apple cravings, those f*****s are amazingly juicy).

On another side-note, I'm going to try naming all my posts after the game's quotes (so far so good). This might get harder later on when I've used them, but the dungeons and items I collect will help a bit (I'll just name a post after the item I find during that game session). I'll also try for uniqueness in each name.
