General Zelda General Discussion

Sheikah1993, I've merged your thread in with this thread because it's sort of just a general talk about something in Zelda.

...how?

The goddesses have, so far in the series, shown that they care very little about their creation as a whole. They created the world, then left an artifact capable of granting any wish, even a bad one (and those are usually the wishes made). The only time they've directly intervened is when they caused the Great Flood, drowning the land of Hyrule forever and presumably killing a ton of people at the same time.

So, unless you want to worship beings who don't really give a crap about you, who will give evil people nigh limitless power, who will only intervene once the damage is too great to undo, and whose intervention will do even more harm to their followers (and it's not really a solution, they just cover up the problem and leave it for Link to fix later), then I don't really understand why you would want to worship the goddesses.

Thought this was cool, not sure if anyone else has seen it yet:

Legend of Zelda Nursery - YouTube

Some guy went and painted his soon-to-be son's nursery all Zelda themed. I can't say I'm not jealous!

Wow that is so cool :O lucky baby

I just posted a reply in the "What Zelda Games Do You Not Own" topic. I posted that I, except for a few rare items, have every version of every game on every system, including any gold/grey cart versions. Which got me to thinking and know I'm wondering if there are any versions I might not know about. I didn't think this warranted its own thread so figured I'd ask here,

Is there any kind of list anywhere that lists all the Zelda game versions and releases? one that includes any release variations like the gold/grey carts?

There seems to be no current cosplay thread, so I'll put this here.

I found this Ganondorf cosplay, and my heart might have skipped a beat.
More pics on this fb-page and there's also this slideshow video.

I may be in love. Is that weird?

This guy has an EPIC cosplay but to bad he has hair...

I was wondering if someone else was complaining about hyrule historia not being ambigous about the Oracle's games order, I mean: this makes the story of oracle of ages as first quest not canon, and oracle of seasons as second quest too, this was the only thing they could have left mysterious, more than the second split

^ HAHA, thats so cool

^ Hey guys


Just so you know that there is a General Zelda video thread here if you want to share any videos that relate to Zelda in anyway.

Thanks!

Can't find a "Zelda funnies" thread so this is going here:

Two Steps From Hell - Undying Love (Choir - Extended Mix) - YouTube

So beautiful.
I think they should compose for a future Zelda game!!
Has anybody ever heard of them before?

^I have not heard of them before, but that was wonderful! I shall go and find out more about their music now. Thanks for the link!

I was just looking at Epona, and... Does that shield shaped thing look like the Decepticon logo to anyone else?

This is but one of the legends of which the people speak… « Hopped on Pop

Check back tomorrow, because I'll have a post dedicated to Zelda up. I just thought y'all would appreciate this here lil' promo.

Edit: And speak of the Devil, here it is:

The Enduring Legacy of Zelda « Hopped on Pop

Wait... how does Link get back to Hyrule from Termina in Majora's Mask?

And if he knew of an exit all along why didn't he just leave as soon as he got Epona back?

He promised the HMS to return him the Majora's Mask and Tael to find Tatl.

I'm here to say that this thread idea is great and thank you for the idea

Skyward Sword is only $35 at Toys-R-Us, and it still has the music CD included! Other places had it for 50...without the CD. Huh...

I don't mean to offend anyone's beliefs here, but... that's pretty much the same as "our" God... letting tonnes and tonnes of people sit in dismay, torture and sorrow while he/she expects us to follow the ten commandments. Religion is all messed around, and I think that's what Nintendo was trying to get at.

Again, I don't mean to offend, and I apologize if I do.

Good find.

I have re-read a couple of my zelda manga's, its amazing how many details i have missed. For example I found out that Zelda is the Goddess of time mentioned in MM.
