Yes, I should have mentioned I also tried cleaning the laser when I cleaned the disc. Didn't seem to make a difference.
The problem was definitely related to the memory card being inserted when I tried to start Zelda 1 and 2. Its 100% reproducible everytime. I would really appreciate if someone else with this game could try and see if they have the same problem.
