Nice! I recently played it, too. I also got every achievement on RetroAchievements.org in the process. Check out some of the achievements:
https://retroachievements.org/game/1454
Some are just "play the game", but then you have to "beat" both quests without ever getting a sword. I use quotes there because you can't beat Ganon without the Magical Sword, so the achievement is to get to his room. And there are some really hard one-room achievements like killing a bunch of blue Darknuts with only bombs, and killing each boss hitless. Gleeok was a pain in the ass.
Plus ones like beat the game with no deaths. You can actually die, but you have to hit Retry and lose all your progress since your last save, which means you have to save manually once in a while. I lost an entire dungeon and some rupee grinding from a death one time. Ugh. In all, I ended up beating the game about 5 times to get all the achievements.
At any rate, if you want to torture yourself, try to get them all! π You just need an RA compatible emulator and an RA account.
Retro Achievements is a really cool service, and I feel like no one knows about it. I didn't know about it until a Twitch streamer mentioned it.
Ok, thatβs REALLY cool! I use an everdrive with the original hardware but maybe someone made a romhack. Either way, bosses hitless sounds like a real PITA like you said. Canβt imagine beating Gohma hitless lol
Gohma was super easy. I walked into the room, let loose one arrow, and he instantly died! π
Sorry, meant Patra
