Unlike the [[Hylian Shield]], it cannot be consumed by a [[Like Like]] (due to that fact that there is only one found in the game, and cannot be purchased in any store) and it will destroy certain projectiles instead of reflecting them. | Unlike the [[Hylian Shield]], it cannot be consumed by a [[Like Like]] (due to that fact that there is only one found in the game, and cannot be purchased in any store) and it will destroy certain projectiles instead of reflecting them. | ||
In the first [[Nintendo 64]] version of ''Ocarina of Time'', the shield possessed a symbol almost identical to the crescent moon and star symbol which originated with the Ottoman Empire, and is now used as a proxy symbol for [[Wikipedia:Islam|Islam]]. In later versions, this was changed to a new snakehead symbol for the [[Gerudo]]. | |||

The Mirror Shield also appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Unlike other incarnations, it has a peculiar design of a face upon it, and this can be seen even in its light reflections. The face can be seen on the Happy Mask Salesmen's carrying bag, as it is also a mask. The shield can be obtained after trading with the [[Gibdo]]s under the well in [[Ikana Canyon]]. Like the Mirror Shield in ''Ocarina of Time'', it can reflect light. This time, large blocks possessing the same sun symbol will appear and can only be destroyed with a beam of light from this shield. It is required to enter the [[Ancient Castle of Ikana]] as well as solve some light puzzles in there and [[Stone Tower Temple]]. | The Mirror Shield also appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''.

Oddly, when using the Mirror Shield to reflect light in the [[The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition|Collector's Edition]] version of the game, the emitted beam of light shows greenish and black stripes every second or so. This may be due to the fact that the game itself is being emulated on the GameCube, and the emulator is imperfect, resulting in a graphical error. | |||
