Skyward Sword Instrument!

[Uber-Link83]

Which instrument would you like to see in Skyward Sword?!?!?!

I personally would like to see a Banjo. lol because they r AWESOME instruments, and the ocarina has already been in 3 r 4 Zelda games. Time for a new musical styling! But seriously, the Song of Time on a Banjo! INSANE! lol

How about something more... unusual.

A Samisen! Or a Xyther! We've had the Ocarina of Time, how about the Xyther of Space?

Or, if we want to keep to giving Link wind instruments, how about a saxophone? Saxes are "saxy."

 

[Scythe-of-Chaos]

they should give link a pipe organ he just summons into existence any time he feels like. or a theramin, that would rule.

The teramin of lightning!

the pipe organ of.... pipeorganyness

Ok, what the hey are xythers and teremins???

Oh, I want Link to have a Daft Punk soundboard.

 

[Connor]

I want to see the ocarina. I think it made what Zelda is today and it is by far my favourite Zelda instrument.

 

[Michael Heide]

I don't want Link to have any instrument at all. Instead of learning songs, I'd rather they brought back spells and a magic meter.

I'd love to see a new instrument in Skyward Sword, it's always fun to play!!
Perhaps something which makes use of the Wii Remote, something similar to the Wind Waker, though not the Wind Waker, some other kind of wand....

Or, if we want to keep to giving Link wind instruments, how about a saxophone? Saxes are "saxy."

Oh yes! Bring on the saxophones! I would even settle for a clarinet too......

or a theramin, that would rule.

The teramin of lightning!

Awww. I was going to say Theramin. That would be awesome!

But really, as much as I love having instruments in the games, I'm kinda hoping SS takes a different step and doesn't have any. There's been so many instruments in the games now that having one isn't original anymore, however if one happened to appear, it should fit into the story somehow (and I'm bad at knowing what fits, so I wont' try and pick a plausible choice).

the flute because it sounds alot like an oracine

 

[Zelda's_Child]

You know what I want to see? A XYLOPHONE would kick butt.

As if, Link could whip it out of nowhere, like he did with the butt-organ, I mean, deku pipes...(thankyou lovely abridged person who put that into my head and made me call that poor instrument the BUTT-ORGAN. seriously...) But, how could such a TINY being pull something THAT BIG out of NOWHERE. LITERALLY NOWHERE.

And that is my view on Link pulling things out of nowhere.

But back on topic, I would love to see Link just pull out a xylophone and play a really pretty song.(I personally think xylophones are beatiful instruments. :3) So yeah! That's me!

A banjo lacks the Zelda feel, especially if you think about the history behind it.

It's an instrument that was made by enslaved blacks in the United States in the 18th century, who had very limited materials and experience. Without trying to sound disrespectful, it has a cheap, ramshackle look and feel to it when you compare it to more sophisticated or elegant instruments, like harps or violins or things of the sort. It's not the kind of thing you would expect to see Link playing.

But I don't think any instruments are really necessary anyway. It's different when it's a focal point of the story like in Majora's Mask, Ocarina of Time or Wind Waker(the latter two of which have the instruments names in their titles) but I'd rather they go without one this time.

He could use the sword itself since of the name being what it is since if you look at the wind waker it could fallow in the same manner in being he conducts the wind.

I really don't want to see an instrument in SS, but if there were to be one, I would pick the harp, similar to how Sheik plays in OoT.
