Pegasus Boots

Would anyone else like to see them as an item in a 3d Zelda? Just imagine Link running through Hyrule field and leaving a blurry green streak in his path. It's one item from the 2d games I miss.

Win. You're the first person who agrees with me on this.

I'm actually surprisd the Pegasus Boots haven't shown up in any 3D Zelda. I guess it may be because the roll attack replaced their function of allowing Link to smash into objects.

I like Pegasus Boots, they are useful, and I enjoy to run with them. I wouldn't mind if they'd be in a new 3D game, because they're great indeed - yet, I don't think they'll appear in a new, 3D Zelda games. Epona is much more popular.

However, Epona can't get across a swamp, so somehow they could put the Pegasus Boots in. Hope dies last. :>

I'm sure they could give it more use than running into things. I don't have much off the top of my head but maybe some kind of wall running ability to go around a pit or being able to run up cresent shaped walls to access another level of a room.

They totally rock. I want them in a 3d game. the hover boots would rock again too.
Rolling to get places sucks. They could make you run faster than Epona, but take a small amount of magic or something. They would really help in speed runs (one reason I wan them).

I love the Pegasus boots as much as the Hover boots; both of them should return.

It would rock.

Yes, Pegasus Boots need to return in 3D.

Nothing to add, just lending my support to the movement.

I think it would be cool to have them in 3D, but they would probably replace Epona or another train. But runnin around at Goron rolling speed is the next best thing to turning into a Goron again, so I, as the HeroOfDragons, endorse this idea!

In AoL, Link had an item called "Boots" that also had wings on the side that abled Link to walk over water. Obviously these "Boots" were the very first prototype of the Pegasus Boots that will later on be used in the series (same can be said about the "Magical Sword" in LoZ being the prototype of the Master Sword). Anyways, I just thought of bringing something back from an old game, and placing it in a new one. If AoL Link can walk on water and MM Deku Link can hop over water, why not bring back the Pegasus Boots that will able Link to run over water! However, he'll only be able to run over water, if he suddenly stops, he'll drop and start swimming. We've seen plenty of fictional characters do the same thing (The Flash, the little boy in "The Incredibles", etc...), so why not Link?

Of course there would have to be a few limitations to these 3D Pegasus Boots. Link wouldn't be able to run up walls (let's leave some items to have some exclusiveness, like the Iron Boots being magnetized), wouldn't be able to swim faster, wouldn't be able to run up walls (that would be too much like Sonic or Prince of Persia), if he gets hit while running that will make him stop, and he wouldn't be able to turn very quickly (so don't expect him to turn on a dime, or make a smooth circle to curve around, he'd probably slightly turn to the left or right a little like he did in FSA. Speaking of FSA, in it, Link (or really the Links) could equipt a Level 2 Pegasus Boot that allowed them to run over empty gaps (aka: like the Hover Boots), since 3D Zelda games don't really allow Link to jump at any given moment, maybe this is something that could be incorperated. Heck, maybe Link would have two upgrades to the Boots. One that would make him run fast on land, the first upgrade to run over empty gaps, and the second to run over water (at least this would hinder the player to not advance to far in the game early).

It is been stated in OoT's 10th anniversary interview that Pegasus Boots were considered, until the idea of Epona came and went with that instead. The idea of a horse in 3D gameplay was pretty new at the time during OoT development so it was something to make the game stand out more.

I personally dislike the Hover Boots, the sliding movement is awkward and I prefer the plain Kokiri Boots. I also prefer to be jumping off the edge than very limited hovering. What the Hover Boots can do, the Pegasus Boots can also do with increased jumping range to make up for no hovering.

The pegasus boots are pretty much obsolete in 3d zelda... They would have to serve a different function, perhaps a replacement for the hover boots... they could perhaps allow him to temporarily fly in the air, except he would need a running start... He wouldn't literally fly, but levitate, sort of like using the action replay codes on OoT or MM,but only for a short time, and the bigger the running start, the higher he levitates...

Another idea, noticing the Zelda series' fascination with whirlwinds, would be to allow Link to create a whirlwind or a temporary jet stream that trails him as he runs and could be useful in solving puzzles or killing certain enemies. And perhaps the boots could be combined with the fire or ice arrows to create a trail of ice or a line of fire to kill multiple enemies and solve puzzles. He could literally take on the power of X-men's Ice Man, and skate across his own trail of ice... These are just some of my ideas...

At the very least they could be used, as was stated above, to build up a running start and increase Links jumping distance. I also like the idea of running on water. The idea of using ice arrows as well sounds great like cooling patches of magma to create a series of stepping stones which Link can run across. As for the running on walls, I didn't see it as a long time thing just small sections he could do a wall run on to get across a gap to far to jump.

If the Pegasus boots go in, I demand the Roc's Feather/Cape go in as well! Light platforming has been primarily in the 2D games but it would be cool if they brought it into 3D.

That would be awesome. They should do something like OoT where you get different boots.

i like the idea of upgrading your boots, i didnt really like the hover boots but i always imagined if only u could walk on water longer than it would be great!!! that and to have a way to travel more faster similar to ALTTP and MM with the bunny hood would be pretty good, but itll have to be faster than the bunny hood tho. my opinion on tha hover boots is that it was just addind on to the sheikah's ninja mythology(you know walking on water=ninjas) since it was believed the sheikah invented the boots in the first place

i would love to see the pegasus boots make a return into the 3rd dimension it would make those runs across hyrule field a little less time consuming and i also had the ide that if the pegasus boots were in a 3d zelda game that they could allow link to run up and across walls

Even if we can't have the Pegasus boots...they need to bring back the dash attack, where Link strikes right through his enemies...That was always fun.

The bunny hood essentially took the role of the old p-boots, as far as running faster is concerned. If they are going to bring back a pegasus anything, I think I'd personally like to see it attached to flight in some way as a new ability.
