"How well known is the Legend of Zelda?"

I was thinking about Zelda the other day. Then I realised that I hadn't actually, played and completed all of the games. The reasons for this I wont reveal because otherwise it will spoil the fun. But I still have to try and complete the very first one on the NES, which even by today’s standards is very good.

I then got talking to someone about this and realised between us we had a fountain of knowledge about Zelda, so we did a little research and learned a few things on the way. Now I challenge you to see how well you know the Legend! See how many of these questions you can answer! (there are 30 of them)

I will be posting a long topic with the answers in Friday night or Saturday sometime.
