and i still don't know anything about it besides it being a game for the NES that retrophiles keep mentioning :/ Is it the only good NST game or something? lol

They're both good NES games in a similar dungeon-romping game style as Zelda.  They're linear experiences, though.  Mike Jones used a YoYo in the first game, which is upgraded as the game goes on.  He's probably one of the earliest video game examples of a yoyo-bashing protagonist.
