Any other games with a combat similar to Zelda II?
I can't remember any other sidescroller where enemies position themselves moving back and forth instead of moving in predetermined paths or just following you.

Karateka? or maybe Prince of Persia since it has thwordth
Yeah, they are close, but they lack the fluid platforming from Zelda
The enemies in these games behave nothing like Zelda II enemies
Really? I don't remember enemies from that game doing anything other than running straight to you your flying around
>fluid platforming
Not what you asked for at all, pussybreasts. And PoP has pretty damn fluid platforming anyway.
Maybe this is a new genre you discovered.
back-and-forth platformer?
rubber-band platformer?
wigglevania
Ah this thread again, it's only been a few days huh?
Anyway, Monster World 4 corrects all the flaws of Zelda gameplay and gives a far better game with far better combat. Wonder Boy 3 as well.
Ignore the Wonderboy autist, nothing comes close to Zelda II.
I've noticed that kids who had the first Zelda but never got to play 2 back in the day absolutely hate it. Same with kids who's first Zelda was alttp, but those ones are even worse in their autism. It's easily the best game on NES
Agreed
Zelda trilogy is

>using an exploit
You didn't beat the game.
game disagrees (credits rolled)
It's a strategy, b***h, called "going on defense"
This happened to me while fighting the boss for the first time blind. It just sorta happens naturally while fighting him.
Battle of Olympus.
Thanks for spoiling the ending.
Seconding, Battle of Olympus was explicitly made as a Zelda 2-alike, right down to the graphic style. It's hard as balls though, the first enemy in the game can't even be hit by your sword except while it's jumping, and it has to be close enough to you that if you don't time it right and kill it, it will hit you. Pretty much need a turbo controller for this shit
In my opinion its only issue is the unavoidable grind for currency the game has
honestly, fighting games
The only similar retro game is battle of Olympus, definitely give it a go if you like Zelda 2
But honestly try hollow knight if you like modern games as well
Xanadu from falcom? Maybe fantasy romancia?
Xanadu is badass
You should certainly try Sword Master if you haven't. I don't think it's exactly what you're talking about, but it has something in common with Zelda 2 and you should play it.
trojan, maaaaaaybe Rambo?
I think a lot of beat-em-ups do this but yeah they don't usually fluid platforming.
Tales of Phantasia, kind of.
While I'm not sure if it's exactly what you want Shinobi on saturn always reminded me a bit of zelda 2 in that you need to approach common enemies more like an individual duel instead of just an obstacle you chuck a shoryuken at like the earlier games. very unique rhythm as far as side scrolling action games go.
Mayhem in monster land
I walked off the path and I was unprepared
