It’s always been a dream of owning all the masks in Majora’s Mask (might I add, owning them in real life).  Have you ever dreamed of owning them?  If so, Zelda fans, your prayers have been answered.  There’s a new Kickstarter Campaign going on right now, and it promises to deliver real-life replicas of every mask in Majora’s Mask; however, at an expensive cost.

Whether or not Majora’s Mask is better than Ocarina of Time has been debated for many years, but now there is one thing that we can all agree on: there were some great masks in the second N64 Zelda game. Some masks were fairly easy to obtain whereas others required lengthy side quests, but it didn’t always mean that the more effort required to get the mask meant a more useful mask. Alanna Okun from BuzzFeed has put together, what…

Hello readers! Brian here with the seventeenth edition of “The Best and Worst of Zelda.” Today’s topic comes from a user called Sean Gadus, so much thanks to him! If you want your idea discussed in a future editorial, remember to comment your ideas below! While masks aren’t a series-wide theme, the sheer amount of them in Majora’s Mask make them a topic worthy of discussion. Masks act alongside items as tools for exploration and puzzle solving. Today we’ll be…

Majora’s Mask is unquestionably a classic. It was released more than a decade ago on a console that’s now firmly cemented in people’s memories. It was the sequel to one of Nintendo’s greatest success stories, and it has been hailed by the fanbase as one of the greatest titles in its series — praise that’s not unwarranted considering its quality. Considering its age and status, and the fact that it was only the eighth Zelda game ever released in what…

This creepy bugger is one of the most infamous and unnerving characters of the entire Zelda series, second only to Tingle (and I shall also be doing an analysis on later); I wouldn’t be surprised if there were people who actually feel that the Happy Mask Salesman is creepier than Tingle. After all, he has violent mood swings, very sudden, jerky movements, and wants back an evil mask with magical powers that was stolen from him. This guy has mysterious…

Majora’s Mask is known more for than just its unique gameplay features and dark tone and atmosphere. The game has recieved a significant amount of attention from fans due its distinctive aesthetic flair, namely through the main antagonist in the game, Majora’s Mask. The floating, sentient and destructive artefact is no doubt of an intriguing design, separating itself from the typical hoi polloi of Zelda enemies through its unexplained motives for destruction and seemingly psychological games and tricks, especially evident…

Zelda equipment is some of the most interest and exciting parts of a Zelda adventure. Whenever I received equipment in any Zelda game, I would always be excited to try it out and see how it’s applied. But something that really intrigues me and many others is the equipment lineup for the Wii U. The lineup is something that many look at before they buy a game in the Zelda series. Today, I will describe some expected, wanted, and even…

Throughout Majora’s Mask, you are confronted by an interesting character; the Happy Mask Salesman. Your knowledge of him during the game is very little, and he seems to show more evil than he does good. In this article, I will show instances of both the good – and the evil – of the Happy Mask Salesman. One of the more interesting things about the Happy Mask Salesman is that he is the same person from Ocarina of Time, who requested…

The Masks of Link

November 05 2010 by Legacy Staff

One of the key differences that sets Majora’s Mask apart from other Zelda games is the vast number of masks that can be acquired. Every mask in the game has its purpose, but most of them do not hide Link’s true form; other characters can still tell that it’s Link behind the mask. However, four in particular are unique, both in terms of use and relevance to the story: the Deku Mask, the Goron Mask, the Zora Mask, and the…
