Line 78:
** In the Fire Temple, the original version specifically sounds like the Arabic for the First Pillar of Islam ("There is no god but God, and Mohammed is his Prophet") and "God is great". All of these changes were only made in game v1.2, not the gold cart (v1.0) and first run regular carts (v1.1).
:[http://www.gametrailers.com/video/episode-9-pop-fiction/710815 A Gametrailers video elaborates on this slightly.]
* [[Brats with Slingshots]]: The first dungeon item is a slingshot.
* [[Broad Strokes]]: The general plot is similar to the back story for ''[[A Link to The Past]]''. The official timeline confirms that the earlier game takes place in a timeline where the Hero of Time fails to stop Ganondorf.
Line 168:
* [[Gender Rarity Value]]: The Gerudo have only one male child every century, who becomes their king.
* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]:
** The Poe collector suggests
** Nabooru promising you as a kid to "give you something special". It seems innocent enough until you're an adult and she says this little tidbit: "If I'd known you would have grown up to look this good, I would have kept my promise." Yes, Nintendo got a sex and ''[[Shotacon]]'' reference past the radar.
** Pretty much everything involving the Great Fairies.
Line 199:
* [[He Was Right There All Along]]:
** Several bosses, particularly Gohma where the boss fight won't trigger until you look up into her eye.
* [[Hello, Insert Name Here]]: Almost every Zelda game does this. Often a cause of some problems for those who don't understand that "Zelda" is the princess' name and not the hero's, given it turns key speeches into yuri slashfics.
{{quote|'''Zelda:''' What's your name? ...Zelda... Stange, it sounds... [[Captain Obvious|familiar]].}}
Line 205:
* [[Hero's Journey]]: Even more literal than usual. The 'Belly of the Whale' stage of the journey is a dungeon inside a giant fish, and the hero, thanks to the timebending, ''literally'' Comes Of Age when he draws the Master Sword from its pedestal.
* [[Hidden Elf Village]]: Kokiri Village.
* [[Hobbits]]: The Kokiri
* [[Holy Hand Grenade]]: The formerly silver arrows in the previous games become arrows of weaponized light here.
* [[100% Completion]]: If you want to get everything in the game, you had better scour every single area with the most precise attention to detail and logic possible, [[Guide Dang It|or have a trusty player's guide at your side]]-you have a LOT of ground to cover. Besides the crucial items, there are the side-quests, finding all of the fairy fountains, the bonus items like a bigger arrow bag and the bottles, the heart pieces, the mask subquest, and let's not forget those bloody Gold Skulltulas.
Line 298:
** To give an idea of the possibilities that people keep finding about, an speedrunner without any assistance beat the time of an early TAS of the game. ''By several hours''.
* [[Shifting Sand Land]]: The Haunted Wasteland.
* [[Shotacon]]:
* [[Shout-Out]]:
** The four Poe Sisters are named [[Little Women|Jo, Amy, Meg and Beth]].
Line 304:
** Also in the German translation, Ingo is referred to as [[Fawlty Towers|Basil]], though the Manual still calls him Ingo.
** Also there are four Mario references: outside Link's house is a drawing of a knight fighting Bowser with a mushroom dropping from above him, Malon and Talon have Bowser head brooches and there are pictures of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, and Yoshi in the Castle Courtyard. Then there's [[Expy|Talon and]] [[Super Mario Bros.|Ingo]] themselves...
** If you play The Song of Storms to the group of frogs in Zora's River, they sing the opening lines to "[[Singin' in the Rain]]".
** Miyamoto has stated that Navi has a crush on Link and is jealous of Zelda... [[Peter Pan|sound familiar?]] Strangely, this kind of relationship was also in [[The Legend of Zelda (animation)|the Western animated series.]]
Line 310:
* [[Sigil Spam]]: The Triforce symbol is on almost everything, and the [http://www.zeldawiki.org/Gerudo_Symbol Gerudo symbol] is on every block and switch in the game.
* [[The Slow Path]]: While you time travel, everyone else has to live through all seven years of Ganondorf's rule.
* [[The Sociopath]]: Ganondorf. He murders anyone who gets in his way, manipulates people to further his own agenda, abuses his followers, and is charismatic enough to sucker the king of Hyrule into thinking that a notorious thief like him would be a trustworthy ally.
* [[Songs in the Key of Lock]]: Ladies and gentlemen, the [[Title Drop|ocarina]].
* [[Sorry I Left the BGM On]]: Those organs playing in the background? That's Ganondorf.
Line 316 ⟶ 317:
* [[Stable Time Loop]]:
** In the future, Link meets an irritated musician who accidentally teaches him a song a young boy played in his windmill seven years ago by recollecting it. Of course, it's then your mission to go back and play it to him so he can later teach it to you in the future. Not to mention Master Quest's subversion of this: In the Spirit Temple, you create a chest as Adult Link then go ''back in time'' where it's somehow ''still there''. Note that it wasn't there the first time you visited the Temple.
* [[Standard Hero Reward]]: For defeating Barinade, Ruto basically proposes to you. Of course, [[Puppy Love|you're both kids at the time]], so it doesn't quite turn out that way.
* [[Start of Darkness]]: For Ganondorf
* [[Stay on the Path]]: Hyrule Field at night. At least for Young Link.
* [[Stealth-Based Mission]]: Getting past the guards at Hyrule Castle. Also, rescuing the carpenters from the Gerudo compound. And, to a lesser extent, the maze to get to the Forest Temple.
Line 330 ⟶ 331:
* [[The Bad Guy Wins]]: although there is not a gameplay option that provides this, one of the canonical timelines resulting from this game happens because of this scenario.
* [[Theme Naming]]: The four kidnapped carpenters are named after [[Bilingual Bonus|Japanese numbers]]: Ichiro (Ichi, 1), Jiro (Ni/Ji, 2), Sabooro (San, 3), Shiro (Shi, 4).
** The
* [[This Cannot Be!]]: See [[Villainous Breakdown]] below.
