The Legend of Zelda CDI Games: Difference between revisions

{{quote| '''King Harkinian:''' "I'll take the Triforce of Courage to protect me."}}

* [[And I Must Scream]]: The woman in ''Faces of Evil'' who is frozen. When Link thaws her, she thanks him by giving him a drink of Water of Life -- then promptly ''freezes again''. And you can just keep rethawing (and refreezing) her whenever you want. [[Fridge Horror|Fridge]][[Incredibly Lame Pun|Horror]] much?

{{quote| "I may be hideous, but after a year of being frozen, you will ''beg'' to join me!"}}

* [[And That's Terrible]]

{{quote| '''Impa''': "Oh my, it looks like everyone's being taken to Tikogi Tower!"<br />

* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: In ''Wand of Gamelon''...

{{quote| '''Link:''' "That old Ganon is no match for the King!"}}

* [[Bag of Holding]]

{{quote| '''Link:''' "Good thing I have my magic pouch. I can carry '''[[Hyperspace Arsenal|everything!]]'''"<br />

{{quote| '''Ganon:''' "''NOOO!'' Not into the pit!! '''It burns!!!'''"<br />

'''Ganon:''' "The chains! ''NOOO!'' You haven't seen the last of me!" }}

{{quote| '''Goronu:''' ''You can't kill me!'' ''No!'' ''NO!'' '''NOOOOOO!'''<br />

'''Wizzrobe:''' ''Not the disintegration spell! NOOOO!'' }}

* [[Boss Dissonance]]: Mario-type, of an even worse magnitude than ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|Zelda II the Adventure of Link]]''. In ''Faces of Evil'' and ''Wand of Gamelon'', whereas Link and Zelda have to bust their asses to defeat the [[Mook|mooks]], ''all the bosses'' die with one hit. Even '''[[Big Bad|Ganon]]''' himself -- Link must [[Throw the Book At Them|must throw the Book of Koridai]] at him; Zelda must use the titular wand to summon binding chains... and then the book inexplicably reappears again to seal Ganon.

* [[Boss Rush]]: In ''Zelda's Adventure''.

* [[Breathless Non-Sequitur]]: "My ship sails in the morning. I wonder what's for dinner?"

* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: Princess Zelda.

* [[Expy]]: Philips manages to takes this to ridiculous levels by having expies of some of the bosses in ''Faces of Evil'' appear under different names in ''Wand Of Gamelon'':

* [[Extreme Omnivore]]: Glutko in ''Faces of Evil.'' Also:

{{quote| '''Link:''' "[[Hold Your Hippogriffs|I'm so hungry, I could eat an octorok!]]"<br />

* [[Keet]]: Link, in spades. Perhaps one should be glad he is otherwise a [[Heroic Mime]] in the canonical series.

* [[Large Ham]]: The King, Morshu, and Ganon. The latter two are voiced by the same actor.

* [[Loads and Loads of Loading]]: In ''Zelda's Adventure,'' this happens on ''every screen''.

* [[Magic Mirror]]: Link gets trapped inside one of these in ''Wand Of Gamelon''.

{{quote| '''Link:''' "How about a kiss, for luck?"<br />

'''Zelda:''' "You've got to be kidding." }}

* [[Noblewoman's Laugh|Nobleman's Laugh]]: Non-villainous example: King Harkinian does this at the end of Gamelon, minus the hand covering his mouth.

* [[An Offer You Can't Refuse]]:

'''Militron:''' "Feel the fire of war!" }}

* [[Recurring Boss]]: You fight Goronu twice in ''Faces of Evil'', first in the face of Goronu and later the revived Goronu in Fortress Centrum who at first appears to be a sleeping Zelda.

* [[Recursive Adaptation]]: Link's obsession with getting a kiss from Zelda, and the portrayal of the King of Hyrule as a maniacal fat man and having the name "Harkinian", suggest that the developers had the cartoon in mind rather than the games.

* [[Robe and Wizard Hat|Robe And Turban]]: Gwonam.

* [[Royals Who Actually Do Something]]: The King and Zelda. Duke Onkled does absolutely nothing though.

* [[With This Herring]]:

{{quote| '''Gwonam:''' "''There is no time, your sword is enough''"}}

* [[World of Ham]]: Even shopkeepers and common townspeople deliver their lines in the most poetic possible way. One might wonder if they're this theatrical to everyone they meet.

{{quote| '''Ganon:''' "In the darkest nightmare hour, when not moon nor sun had risen, I take Zelda in my power, I shall keep her in my prison."}}
