Despite my general opposition to remakes, recent news has even me a bit excited about The Wind Waker HD. Faster sailing, a reworked Triforce quest, increased Pictobox capacity, but mostly a new Hero Mode like that of Skyward Sword’s… Finally this game is confirmed to have some new additions that make me excited about it. That said, there are also a number of things missing from it. The Wind Waker is my least-favorite Zelda game and if I were to…

Rather than jingling around a giant’s wallet filled with rupees, would you prefer Link carrying these crisp Hylian banknotes? Unlike paper money, rupees can be found through a variety of ways, by either smashing pots, defeating enemies, doing a bit of lawn service or even shooting them in a gallery, to earn even more rupees! Not to mention that brief  jingle of a rupee hovering over Link’s head.   Jump in to see the rest!

If you have a craving to spend your hard earned rupees on some rupees, there are certainly no shortage of rupee replicas on Etsy at the moment. An Etsy store called ChinookCrafts has them for sale along with pouches to act as a wallet for holding them. There is a single rupee and they are also available in multiples such as the Child’s Wallet, which is three rupees, the Adult’s Wallet, which is six rupees, the Giant’s Wallet, which is…

Yesterday’s article about resource management prompted a comment from JuiceJ that I thought would help flesh out the idea of resource management a little more.  One of the core elements of resource management that I overlooked (at least, outside of the original) is the rupee system–consider this an addendum.  Rupees are easy to forget about.  They’re not usually scarce, and if you’re good at most of the Zelda games, you can ignore them entirely.  As JuiceJ pointed out: “In addition…
