I've had problems for a long time unlocking this, as well as all the other "Bested" achievements. I finally unlocked this one on RetroPie by changing the emulator core to ls-snes9x2002. The other cores don't seem to trigger these achievements.

Can confirm that setting the emulator core to lr-snes9x2002 on RetroPie works for US rom. Thanks to theW3RT for the hint!

Shame about the achievement - I beat them using BSNES Balanced on RetroArch and didn't pop. I thought it was because I'd lost a heart in the room before.I'll try future bosses using 9x 2002 as above.

Little hint, because I had to do it multiple times : You SHALL not be harmed in the room before, with the 2 red cyclops for this to pop

Very easy achievement if it weren't for my busted controller that sometimes makes Link walk staight into enemies.

Honestly the whole "Beat each boss with a flawless" is the only strenuious part of these achievements. Again esp with a busted controller. A real hair puller.

In case you take damage: instead of doing quit and save which will let you walk all the way back to the dungeon, just die to the boss and you will begin at the dungeons entrance. Afaik, there is no 0 deaths cheevo, so save and continue is the quickest way to retry. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though.
