Curiosity Shop #039: Zelda Dungeon Mailbag
Posted on December 08 2010 by Axle D. Wilder
New mailbag. This one’s got 13 questions, which seems to always be my absolute maximum. WILL WE EVER EXCEED IT? Haha. Anyway, very diverse assortment of questions this time, so it should be fun! Enjoy!
Questions and timestamps:
(00:11) – Which Zelda game do you think has the best items?
(01:18) – Could the big dead Dodongo in Dodongo’s Cavern in OoT by the Goron equivalent of the Deku Tree or Jabu-Jabu?
(02:19) – Why do they call Ganondorf “Ganon” in The Wind Waker when Ganon is the name for his beast form?
(03:23) – Do you need a 3DS to play the new OoT remake?
(03:39) – Why did Link have pink hair in A Link to the Past?
(04:19) – In Ocarina of Time, is Morpha the one freezing Zora’s Domain? If so, why doesn’t it melt afterwards?
(05:21) – In Ocarina of Time, why is Kakariko Village on fire, and what comes out of the well?
(06:43) – What exactly is “Twilight” and how does it do things like make people spirits or change Link into a wolf?
(08:21) – We all know it’s the same Happy Mask Salesman in Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask, but what about Oracle of Ages?
(09:01) – Miyamoto said Twilight Princess is “without a doubt, the last Zelda game as you know it in its present form.” What did he mean?
(09:40) – Since Skyloft is above Hyrule and the islands in The Wind Waker are above Hyrule, are they the same?
(10:21) – In Zelda all the good races stay good, and all the evil races stay bad. What are your thoughts on this?
(11:50) – I don’t get how the timeline works if Ganon/Ganondorf dies. How can he die more than once?
Be sure to send your questions and your name/username to xx5terrorlord@earthlink.net for next week’s mailbag!
Can you guess the sound at the beginning, the quote, or any of the music? Which Zelda game had the best items in YOUR opinion? Is the “Giant Dead Dodongo” the Gorons’ equivalent of the Deku Tree or Lord Jabu-Jabu? What are Bongo Bongo’s origins? And what do you think of the idea of having the races of Zelda not being strictly good or evil? Tell me in the comments!
