In the past few years we’ve seen remakes of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask, both on 3DS. Fans continue to amaze us with their wondrous works of art, honoring those games. A few days ago, The Wolf of Bees Workshop unveiled the most amazing replica Bunny Hood I have seen to date. Whether it was warding off those scary Stalchildren…

“Masks are essential to your quest in Termina. They can give you one special ability or transform you into a completely different character with a host of super powers”. Thanks to Play Nintendo you can print and wear your very own masks from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask! The masks you can choose from are Majora’s mask, the Deku mask, the Goron mask, the Zora mask, and the Fierce Deity mask. They may be rather simple for cosplayers’ needs, but they’re certainly a fun alternative to full-blown replicas… 

Professional props maker Ashley Montgomery has recently announced a new Kickstarter project for the creation of various masks from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. These masks will be completely wearable as well as displayable for any collectors around the globe.

Mrs. Montgomery has so far created 14 of the masks, and hopes to complete the rest of them soon. She has been very successful with her mask replicas on Etsy, particularly the Deku Mask…

With all the Majora’s Mask 3D hype floating around, it’s easy to forget the Majora’s Mask wasn’t the first Zelda to feature masks. Ocarina of Time had its own mask selling mini-game, in which Link must find suitable buyers for a number of different masks. Showing how masterfully detailed the development team was, every major non-player character has a unique reaction to each mask that Link wears. Master0fHyrule on YouTube recently released a video compilation showing off every one of these unique reactions, and it’s as impressive and interesting as you’d expect…

Among the many traits that made Majora’s Mask a memorable experience, the copious and unique use of the masks surely stands out.  Unlike other titles, it completely dedicates itself to a gimmick of sorts, and somehow makes it work to great success, both as a strong element of the story and as inspiration for so many different items.  In a way, the idiosyncratic use of these powerful transformations is a great reason to keep them associated with…

Whenever someone says the words “Zelda” and “mask” in the same sentence, it’s needless to say that the first thing that pops into most people’s minds is Majora’s Mask. While it’s true the game’s central theme heavily revolves around the usage of masks, it’s definitely not the only one in the series to have them. In fact, the first game to feature masks was none other than Ocarina of Time. Later entries in the series, such as Oracle of Ages, The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess, also make use of them, though nowhere near as much as… 

Hey there, guys! Long time no see, eh?  I haven’t made an editorial in quite a while, and I’ve felt pretty bad about that.  So sorry!  But I’m here now, so let’s get to it! Majora’s Mask 3D is releasing Spring 2015, that’s only a few months away.  So what better way to commend to the glorious remake, than to write an editorial about it? When you think of Majora’s Mask, what do you think of? The adventure?  The characters?…

Just over a month ago, Game Theory took its first look at how Majora’s Mask and the many masks therein have been influenced by African culture. As it turned out there were quite a few parallels with how masks are used by the many different peoples in Africa. For the second video, Gaijin Goombah takes a look at a number of masks that have to do with interacting with others: the difficult to obtain Couple’s Mask, the masks that allow…

While Majora’s Mask itself is a game shrouded in enough mystery as is, it would seem there are more truths to uncover within the game’s data. According to Did You Know Gaming, a code found in the game suggests that Skull Kid was originally intended to wear three other masks. Hit the jump for Did You Know Gaming’s report.

If you’ve ever played Starfox 64 and Majora’s Mask before, you might have noticed something familiar about the particular order of the five animal masks lined in a row on the masks screen. By no coincidence, Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of both the Starfox and Legend of Zelda series found the opportunity include several Starfox 64 characters as cameos in the form of masks.
