DO NOT WANT. Sorry dude, just saying. Those games are a travesty. They're down right scandolous. But hey, if that's your thing then enjoy. As for me, I'll stick with the real thing.
Nope, and don't have the time to track them down, nor the time to play them. The wife hogs the TV with Halo 3 and Gears of War.
I agree, you really can't put a judgement on a game solely on the cinematics and the small snippets of gameplay put on Youtube. I actually know someone with a CD-I in the neighbourhood, no zelda though. :(
Maybe we should get a VC release so we don't have to track down a CD-I and the games. =p That is true, I haven't played the games and probably should.
I've got a working CD-I + one of those ZELDA-games (the faces of evil) and I can tell you those cinematics are the only thing that is even remotely not vomit-inducing... levels are shoddy at best, controls feel like you're playing Dragon's Lair even though you're not :p
and the enemies are, well, just WRONG... some of them look like they're some kind of dinosaurs...
if you want you can come give them a try, I'll be sitting next to you playing something else though...
seriously the CD-I was a sorry excuse for a console... the most fun i had on that thing was while browsing the encyclopedia that was given with it freely because no other application had better controls...
I went through a LOT of trouble to get me a CD-I-machine because I remember being really young and seeing it on a fair and being totally mesmerized by its possibilities but MAN was that a disappointment when I finally got it a year or 3 ago... it's logic that it failed and completely justified, this contraption never should've seen the light of day... if it was a kid, the doctor should've tucked it back in upon delivery :-)

I think a problem with a suggestion that he makes at the end is telling people to basically not think of them as actual Zelda games; just as side-scrolling adventure games from the 90s that just happen to have a guy with a sword, shield, and green tunic. That's just too much of a stretch for a lot of people.
