1986. And if you're implying it was ever an RPG, it wasn't.
Oopsie, my mistake. 1986 is the correct answer. Zelda was launched in Japan on February 21, 1986.

And yes it was RPG, though as the very first RPG it was very rudimentary. (FF premiered in Japan on December 18, 1987, almost 2 years later).

Nowadays there are many RPGS infinitely superior to Zelda but we sentimental types keep a fond place in our hearts for the pioneers
