New Speedrun Record Set for First Quest in The Legend of Zelda (NES)

LackAttack24, an addict gamer and Zelda enthusiast, has claimed first place on the Zelda Speed Runs leaderboards for fastest time playing through the first quest of The Legend of Zelda. In doing so, he hasset the world record for fastest playthrough of the game.The timing starts from the moment you gain control of Link (that is, after the select screen), and ends once Link rescues Princess Zelda. With an impressive time of 29 minutes and 48 seconds, he’s set the bar incredibly high for any challenger wishing to claim the title.

Personally, I could never get close to a time that low. Do any of you guys think you can beat it? Let us know in the comments below!
