The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening on HTML5

Link's Awakening, the Zelda game where Nintendo craziness and brilliance are one and the same, is completely playable on your browser!

LoZ: Link's Awakening is a Gameboy game so there are only a few buttons to work with. This is the DX version so it's in color and it even has the GameBoy Color BIOS intro at the beginning.

Controls: X = A button Z = B button Enter = Start button Shift = Select button Arrow Keys = D-pad The shape of the screen depends on the shape of your browser.

You can play the game here.

Thanks to my friend Twittkins for the link.
