* Northern Fairy Island. There's a rich looking man on the island, using a telescope. Now, the upgrade you get here is one of the Wallet Upgrades, and the only house on the tiny island was the aforementioned Fairy Seashell house, which has no puzzle to get in. The rich-looking man probably just stumbled in there and got the upgrade, though you don't get the wallet full after the upgrade, which arose even more [[Fridge Brilliance]]. He probably was a sailor as well (seeing as Link isn't the only person on the sea), and he traveled to Bomb Island, another area he is seen in, and bombed all the rocks, all but the one at the top, have rupees. He probably did this for hours, seeing as you can escape from the hole and it resets them again. Kind of a [[Wild Mass Guessing]] thing, and a bit far-fetched, but it's still brilliance to me! - [[Tropers/Awesome Zombie 22|Awesome Zombie 22]]

** That is Brilliant indeed, because in Phantom Hourglass the Hoho Tribe (your "rich men") are traveling traders. The ones in Wind Waker are not all the same person, however. - crocswsocks

* Ganondorf duel-wielding. The only other Gerudo <ref> Not counting TP Ganondorf</ref> we encounter in a straight-up sword fight is the woman guarding the carpenters in the OoT's fortress-- who ''also'' uses two swords. Either the WW sword fight was a [[Continuity Nod]], or the Gerudo generally [[Dual Wielding|dual wield]].

* On a similar note to the above, the Ritos' reliance on a scale for their wings makes a lot more sense when you remember signature items of the Zoras'-- the Silver and Gold scales. It might not clear up the evolution issues, but it has a [[Continuity Nod|certain symmetry]] to it, looking at it that way.

* So, on average, we agree that Wind Waker Link can be rather clueless at times, especially when compared to his counterparts from Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and even his fellow cel-Link from Spirit Tracks. Stop to consider the fact that he's the ''only'' Link whose [[Exposition Fairy]] was a) not around from the start of the action <ref> The King of Red Lions first appeared on Windfall, but he doesn't give any advice until well into Dragon Roost Cavern</ref> and b) one of the few who can't be contacted on a whim from anywhere on the map. Navi/Tatl, Midna and {{spoiler|Zelda}} would all talk to Link on a regular basis when he (apparently) asked for advice (Navi, Tatl and Midna in particular, could use an [[Enemy Scan]]) but the King was a boat {{spoiler|sort of}} and couldn't follow Link through dungeons, caves, etc. In other words, WW Link had to figure almost everything out on his own-- he's not dumb, he just had to use trial and error to work things out, on top of trying to stay alive until he ''did'' find the answer.
