can you save the game in zelda 1 and 2

If by Zelda 1 you are referring to the original "The Legend of Zelda", yes you can save. Every time you die, you are presented with a "continue, save, or quit" menu.

wow, No offense or anything, but I didnt think it was possible to not know that.

you can also just hit the Home button. Since it's an emulator, it just saves the state of the game. When you come back, it's just like you had paused it.

But since this is the retro console forum, we wouldn't be discussing Wii functions here.

To save the game in The Legend of Zelda and The Adventure of Link pause the game with start then with a second controller hit Up on the directional pad along with pressing A. This is the instructions for the NES ofcourse.

Be very carefull when you turn off your NES and make sure that you press and hold the reset button while turning off the console to make sure your saved game doesnt get erased.

DAMMIT I KNEW I FORGOT SOMETHING. To be honest I was pretty drunk when I made it (hence the crappyness) I will change that as soon as I get home today. Thanks for reminding me about that

It is true

Everyone.. If you want to save your game file without dying in Zelda 1 Legend of zelda, just hit select (One that pulls up your items) and press up on the pad and the + button, the Continue, Save, and retry, prompt will come up so you can save without having to die.

Yes it works, I have done it, if it doesn't work for you, PM me and I'll make a more detailed talk.

Did he specify for the Wii, or the NES in his first post?

No he did not.
