    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeon Rooms

    Yeah, that room's a blast. I also like the room where you're introduced to ghost rats. That rewarded my habit of using Wolf Link a lot in that dungeon (since his weight distribution meant he didn't sink as fast, plus I like looking around for secrets with the wolf senses). I really like the...

    Video Game Quotes

    It's also a delicious reference to the cheesy Doom comic. "Rip and tear! Rip and tear your guts! You are huge! That means you have huge guts!" "You found 20 bombs inside! Now you can set bombs to (C) and blow stuff up! What a lucky guy!" - Navi (for it is she who gives the item descriptions)...

    Humor in Zelda - tell us about a moment in a game that had you LOL hard.

    1. Nothing indicates he's a thief in Ocarina of Time. His model was repurposed as a thief character in Majora's Mask, but that has no bearing on the Ocarina of Time NPC. 2. What exactly do you mean by people blaming Ganondorf "even without good evidence"? Suspicious timing and demands don't...

    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeon Rooms

    Of those "feel your way" rooms, the one I really hate is the firewall maze in the Fire Temple. I'm indifferent toward the Forbidden Woods one and I liked the Arbiter's Grounds one, but I hate that firewall maze. It's way too easy to step closer to the posts than you thought and faceplant the...

    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeons

    The sparseness of the Divine Beasts seems to be the tradeoff for Breath of the Wild's overworld being one huge dungeon in its own way and it having a ton more demi-dungeons. I have a hard time picking favorites because I like so many of the dungeons a lot.. Maybe instead of trying I should just...

    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeon Rooms

    I usually enjoy mirror puzzles. I just hate that one in the Stone Tower because of it requiring you to stand still in a room with respawning swarm enemies who can knock you out of position or waste your time, while also contending with charging up a chain of temporary light sources.

    What's your favorite 'Alternative World' of the series?

    Hmm. I'm torn between 7 Years Later and The Past. The Dark World in LttP (which the Past from OoA compares to) is cool to progress through, but some of the overworld enemies are a bit too annoying for it to be my favorite.

    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeon Rooms

    Much has been said about favorite and least favorite dungeons. But sometimes... Sometimes, you like or are fine with or indifferent towards a dungeon as a whole... except for That One Room. That room that freaks you out, or bores you to death, or is just plain annoying to get through. At other...

    Desperately hoping there's some way to make the saves on my Majora's Mask cartridge come back.

    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeons

    I actually enjoy the Water Temple. I don't find that it drags at all, and I find paying attention to what boundaries open for you at each water level - and when you get the Longshot - to be pretty fun. I also like how it rewards you for having Din's Fire; that lets you backtrack inside the main...

    MM-N64 Majora's Mask save file loss - anything I can do?

    The actual N64, hence my references to turning the system on and off. If I was using an emulator the fix would be obvious, but no. I'm talking about actual on-cartridge save data EDIT: Aaand it turned out that it was a pseudo-wipe caused by garbage data from the crash lingering in the console's...

    MM-N64 Majora's Mask save file loss - anything I can do?

    I am NOT a happy Zelda player right now. Like, not at all. A couple weeks ago, I finally brought my Majora's Mask save file to 100% completion. Last night, I decided to celebrate that by replaying the Anju and Kafei sidequest and then fighting the final boss again after (re-)witnessing their...

    Ocarina of Time (N64) Save damage question (Heart Pieces)

    I believe he's talking about being able to dig up and collect the Heart Piece multiple times. Not that it really matters, because his saying "try these exploits" means he obviously skimmed the thread rather than reading it properly.

    Ocarina of Time (N64) Save damage question (Heart Pieces)

    The reset button is a soft reset, though. What happened to me was basically the same as the console being unplugged mid-play. But if you're sure... Then I somehow managed to light the Zora's Domain torches but fail to actually collect the Piece of Heart from the chest, and to kill the Gold...

    Ocarina of Time (N64) Save damage question (Heart Pieces)

    Yes, I got that one. See the previous message, where I said "As an aside, I'd actually found all 100 at the time of posting. " I even triple-checked the spot while trying to find what I was missing. The absolute last missing one in Zora's domain turned out to be the one in the high cave at...

    VikzeLink's Weekly Sunday Poll 390!

    Oh, I'd say there's one guy who solidly counts as a sub-villain in the Oracle games: Vire :P I would also say that Koume and Kotake count as sub-villains in Ocarina of Time. Vaati's presence on this list kinda bugs me, since he's the main villain in both The Four Swords and The Minish Cap.. But...

    Worst External Obstacles

    Here's another one on my end: The Wii's sensor bar jack getting damaged the last time the bar was disconnected. Kinda makes me wish Nintendo had used a proprietary connector for it, just because their connectors tend to be pretty rugged.

    What was the last game you played in 2019 and the first in 2020?

    Ocarina of Time for both, because I was working on 100%ing the game when the year rolled over.

    Worst External Obstacles

    Sometimes when you're having trouble progressing or accomplishing something in a game, it's because you're struggling with the game itself (for reasons good or bad). But sometimes, it's not yours or the game's fault. Power outages, other people butting in, hardware issues, loud noises outside...

    Anyone have box scans and measurements?

    Yes, that sort of thing... Although sadly, that site only has two of the boxes I'm currently looking for: Majora's Mask and Oracle of Seasons. Well, they have a US box for Ocarina of Time, but it's not the correct one for my cartridge. I realize I'm being picky, but if I'm gonna blow the printer...

    Anyone have box scans and measurements?

    Well, I did specify that I wanted scans and measurements, which is not what either of the first two respondents supplied. But you're right, I didn't specify what games I wanted scans for... I guess my thinking was that since I needed so many (and the way I buy games, what I don't need right now...

    Anyone have box scans and measurements?

    That's perfectly fine, since I wasn't expecting someone to look up the exact sites :P. I was just hoping someone might already have the knowledge or resources readily at hand. The most I was expecting someone to do was scan and measure a box themselves. I'd be willing and happy to do that for...

    Ocarina of Time (N64) Save damage question (Heart Pieces)

    First off: Yes, it does mark them. And it was driving me crazy that Zora's Domain wasn't marked as complete, because I was pretty sure I had killed everything there. I knew for a fact that I had already been up to the high cave and at the very least struck down the Gold Skulltula there on that...

    Favourite/ Least Favourite Bosses

    He's only cheap if you're playing badly. The trick is to fight aggressively with Zora Link's electroshield, and to swim fast using the A button. ... Or to cheese him with the bow (either half-cheese, where you down him with the bow and then get in the water as Zora Link to damage him, or...

    Ocarina of Time (N64) Save damage question (Heart Pieces)

    So, in my current Ocarina of Time save file, I'm 1 Piece of Heart away from completing the last Heart Container. Aaaand I'm thinking that at some point my save file must have glitched and "eaten" a collected Heart Piece. I'm currently going through them all looking to see if there's one I...

    Favorite/Least Favorite Dungeons

    Gyorg's easy enough if you actually bother to learn the Zora Link swim controls and fight aggressively using the electroshield. And if you're willing to be a bit slower, standing on the central platform sniping at him with the bow turns the fight into almost as big of a joke as standing in the...

    Anyone have box scans and measurements?

    :rolleyes: Those are sites that make boxes for you, not sites that supply you with scans for doing it yourself. The latter is what I actually asked for, and I know there was at least one Zelda fansite that had them. But it's been over ten years since I found that, and I can't remember which one...

    Anyone have box scans and measurements?

    You're right, that's not what I'm looking for. I did specifically say I wanted to make reproduction boxes. EDIT: Let me elaborate... I'm specifically after making repro boxes for sentimental reasons. My Legend of Zelda games are particularly special to me. Special enough to want to go to the...

    Anyone have box scans and measurements?

    I'm looking to make some reproduction boxes for my cartridge Zelda games. Does anyone have scans and measurements, or know of a site that has them hosted? I would also be interested in scans of the cardboard insulation so that I can replicate that as well.

    Right handed Link: Do you care?

    I prefer lefty Link. It was one of his cool traits that made him stand out, and I think Nintendo should stick to it wherever possible.

    Dump these dungeons!

    For those saying "Why isn't (x) here?", there is an "Other" option :P I vote for Other: Eagle's Tower from Link's Awakening (original). Main reason? The game-breaking glitch with the wrecking ball. The boss being able to throw you out is also obnoxious. On a similar note, the second worst for...

    I too thought this during the battle

    While my pick for favorite is on it, I refuse to vote because the poll is woefully incomplete. No Tatl, no King of Red Lions, no Ezlo, no Spirit Tracks Zelda... I believe some others are missing as well.
