Interesting picks there Devlin.
I've been wanting Pedz to give one a try for a while now. This is my way of forcing the issue.
For those who might be wondering what these are, Randomizers are essentially ROM hacks that randomize various elements of the games, most commonly the item locations. So you might get late game items right at the start, or in weird places.
Super Metroid/ALTTP is a special case. Due to some amazing co-incidences in how Super Metroid and Zelda 3 were were made, it's possible to switch between the two games in one ROM. They have hacked it so that going through certain doors in either game will take you to a door in the other one. So the Fortune Teller Hut by Lake Hylia now links to Crateria in Super Metroid. The randomizer means you can also find items in either game. In my most recent one I found the Grapple Beam in the Sick Kids house in Kakariko Village. It's genius.
Basically they make an old game feel new again and force you to rethink how you play scenarios. I went ages in one run of ALTTP where I didn't have a sword and had to take out a few bosses with the Hammer.
