World 5-2 is played from top-down, in a homage to ''The Legend of Zelda'' for its [[The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary|25th Anniversary]]. One of the star medals requires lighting four torches in a side room. Doing so opens a door and the ''Zelda'' "Puzzle Solved" chime plays.

Reportedly, the developers originally wanted the level to be World 2-5, for further homage to ''Zelda'''s 25th Anniversary, but felt that it would be placed too early in World 2.

Having taken things that far, we decided to add a number of ideas from Zelda. Since it was the 25th anniversary of Zelda, we could have made the Zelda tribute level 2-5, but we didn't think it would be a good idea to put the level in too early, so we made it level 5-2 instead." | Koichi Hayashida}}

In the episode "Child Fearing", there is a character who looks like Link, and has many of Link's features, such as a Fairy. The character was in a game, played by Mayor of Townsville. The Mayor made the character slash his sword, run into walls, and kill a boss-like fairy. The Mayor dies and gets a "start over?" screen, then the screen zooms out of the game, and the viewers can see the Mayor holding what looks like a Nintendo 64 controller.[[File:Link In PPG.jpg|200px|right]] {{Clear}}
