Gustaf? What?

[Ando]

Okay, I've gone through The Minish Cap, and I'm in the process of doing it a second time, but I gotta ask: Where do people get the idea that the name of the Hero of Men is "Gustaf"? I don't recall seeing this at all in the game.

He's the king you get a gold Kinstone piece from if you visit him in the Royal Valley.

I... uh... Huh. Apparently I need to get back to that point in the game again soon.

Nope.

Gustaf is a 'Fan-made' name. No one really knows it, but many people think he is really Swiftblade, the last of the swordmaster brothers. (Who's dead)

Oh, maybe the ghost king's name was Gustav. Swiftblade the first, who you can find in Castor Wilds, is my guess on who's the Hero of Men too.

Gustaf, if I'm not mistaken, was the previous king of Hyrule. You can find his ghost in the royal valley. He isn't the Hero of Men. I don't really think you even see The Hero of Men at all in the Minish Cap, and if you do, it's most likely Swiftblade the first.

They reveal Gustaf's name when you collect his figurine, do they not?

The "Gustaf being the Hero of Men" theory came from that Retrospective that Gametrailers had a while back, I believe. It was interesting to watch but their timeline had a bunch of holes in it. (Gustaf being the hero was one of them.)

I dont know about this Gustaf but i just want say that MC is pretty much the most awsome Zelda game.(my opinion)

They reveal Gustaf's name when you talk to him, he tells you that he is "King Gustaf" I think.

I new it had something to do with Gametrailers which started the theory!
