The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Difference between revisions

Line 45:

* [[Climax Boss]]: {{spoiler|Byrne. He's fought just before Malladus finally possesses Zelda's body.}}

* [[Clothes Make the Legend]]: Link's tunic and cap yet again, this time justified by being the uniform for the royal guards, and Link has to dress up as one to sneak Zelda out. Interestingly, US-version dialogue indicates that no one seems to find the outfit very flattering; one guard calls it "goofy-looking," and when Link puts it on Zelda comments that "It works...I suppose."

* [[Color Coded Multiplayer]]: Battle Mode lets you control one of four Links with differently colored tunics, ''[[The Legend of Zelda Four Swords Adventures (Video Game)|Four Swords]]'' style.

* [[Continuity Nod]]: Tetra appears in a stained-glass window; Niko mentions how Link reminds him of someone he used to know when he was younger; you can obtain the shield from ''[[Phantom Hourglass]]'' at one point, and so on...

** Anjean is ''made'' of these.

Line 72:

* [[The Dragon]]: Byrne is this to [[Big Bad]] Chancellor Cole, with Malladus as the [[Bigger Bad]].

* [[Dungeon Bypass]]: The mechanic of "main dungeon you keep returning to" makes a return from ''Phantom Hourglass'', but this one has bypasses built into it and isn't timed.

* [[Eek a Mouse]]: Zelda is frightened by a mouse shooting out from its hole, even though she's a spirit possessing an invincible [[Golem]], not to mention the granddaughter of the pirate Tetra. {{spoiler|[[Dangerously Genre Savvy|Cole actually summons magical rats to incapacitate her during his boss fight.]]}}

* [[Eek! A Mouse!]]: Zelda is frightened by a mouse shooting out from its hole, even though she's a spirit possessing an invincible [[Golem]], not to mention the granddaughter of the pirate Tetra. {{spoiler|[[Dangerously Genre Savvy|Cole actually summons magical rats to incapacitate her during his boss fight.]]}}

* [[Escort Mission]]:

** The Force Gem sidequests which don't involve transporting ''items'' from one place to another instead require you to transport ''people'' from one place to another without taking too much damage during the ride.

** Big Keys in a few dungeons are far too large for Link to carry, so Zelda (in Phantom armor) carries them instead -- but then you have to protect her from Keymasters who try to take the key back.

* [[Everyone Calls Him Barkeep]]: "Just call me Postman! All my friends do."

* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: "Just call me Postman! All my friends do."

* [[Evil Chancellor]]: Chancellor Cole.

* [[Evil Is Not a Toy]]: {{spoiler|Malladus and Cole seem pretty chummy at first, but after Zelda manages to get her body back, Malladus swallows Cole whole to transform into his final phase.}}

Line 138:

"SOMETIMES IT'S LONELY BEING SO ELITE." }}

* [[Obviously Evil]]: Cole. At least Zelda has her suspicions, but they're not nearly as strong as they should be.

* [[One Hit Kill]]: Unusually for the ''Legend of Zelda'' series, the Dark Trains and Armored Trains will cause an instant [[Game Over]] if they hit your train, regardless of how fast they hit you or what condition your train is in.

* [[One-Hit Kill]]: Unusually for the ''Legend of Zelda'' series, the Dark Trains and Armored Trains will cause an instant [[Game Over]] if they hit your train, regardless of how fast they hit you or what condition your train is in.

* [[Our Ghosts Are Different]]: More like [[~~Everythings~~ Better With Princesses|Our Ghosts Are Princesses.]]

* [[Our Ghosts Are Different]]: More like [[Everything's Better With Princesses|Our Ghosts Are Princesses.]]

** [[Cute Ghost Girl]]

* [[Ocarina Playlist|Pan Flute Playlist]]: First game since ''[[The Wind Waker]]'' to implement this trope.

Line 167:

* [[Serious Business]]: Trains. You can't be an engineer without what essentially amounts to a ''knighting ceremony''.

** Possibly justified when you consider that they regularly travel on and interact with the chains binding the resident [[Sealed Evil in A Can|evil spirit]].

** And as the Esoteric-Goron claims, engineers have a special "aura" allowing them to feel the presence of one. It's like engineer is another word for [[What Do You Mean ~~Its~~ Not Awesome|"really awesome person"]] in New Hyrule.

*** In the immortal words of Alfonzo: "You sure you don't mean legendary warrior? I've never heard of a legendary engineer."

* [[Shout Out]]: Eiji Aonuma's main inspiration for this game was ''The Tracks Go On'', a children book he once read to his son.

Line 196:

** What, you never wanted to wreck your train?

* [[Whip It Good]]: One of Link's new items is a whip that looks like a [http://bulk2.destructoid.com/ul/156823-headerropesnake.jpg snake].

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes]]: Zelda is afraid of mice. This comes up in a few puzzles {{spoiler|and one boss battle}}.

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?]]: Zelda is afraid of mice. This comes up in a few puzzles {{spoiler|and one boss battle}}.

* [[Wicked Cultured]]: Chancellor Cole doesn't embody this trope in personality, but he sure does in dress. In fact, he actually wears ''two'' top hats.

** Of course, they ''are'' to cover up his two demon horns.
