Legend of Zelda General Discussion Thread

Not sure where else to post this, BUT considering several good Zelda games have been either released first or rereleased physically onto the Wii U, I'll post about it:

It's apparently come up recently a bit, despite being known about for at least a year.



This YT video by Nin10land reads off several of those Twitter posts -If you prefer to listen about it rather than read; There's likely better coverage. Sorry for my negligence- & opinionates on some of the matter.


From what I understand, it has something to do with discharge while the power is off, & this leads to memory corruption.
Supposedly, according to RetroBlastUS's Twitter posts (Linked above.) chipsets affect how bad it is, with the original white-coloured Wii U having better chipsets, & black Wii U having worse ones, with Hynix chips apparently being a bit disreputable.

It SOUNDS like this takes a while. Months, maybe a year or more, but still. Better to err on the side of caution.

I advise plugging your Wii U in, if you have one & it's unplugged, ASAP, just to be safe.

the wonderful 101/vc machine....

do we really.

We've already had Link become an anthropomorphic bunny iirc, don't think we need more.
 
Can't wait for the masterworks book next month to confirm Zelda is using the full power of the Triforce in this game so we can push the universe level tulin agenda
If you include AoC as valid scaling then you can have universal Hetsu as well
 
Do we know how many mfs died in the imprisoning war? Or fought in it at least?
 
Nearly all the knights that fought in it died (Specifically talking on the side of Hyrule, not a whole lot of Ganon's army got killed) because they were essentially cannon fodder to distract Nando and his goons while the sages were prepping the spell to trap him in the Dark World.

Unfortunately we don't have an actual number for how many knights fought.
 
Yeah knew that, i vaguely recall something saying millions tho, might be tripping but a hard number for it would be useful, if not i can ape somethin out at least.
 
Went and double checked some guides and most I could find was the Nintendo Power one saying many of the knights died in the war. Which kinda helps in how many died but uh not great for an actual number for how many fought
 
Well ill just use some approximates ig.

Do we have a standardized height for Alttp dudes?

Oot, SS, botw, totk and so on have standard heights or easy ways to get some, but for alttp im kinda lost.

1. The old ass nintendo height chart with alttp and mario mfs
2. Via Smash Ultimate Zelda
3. Via the MS
4. Assume he's as tall as the standard Link height (5'2''-5'3''; OOT, BOTW, TOTK, SS, etc).
5. Assume he's as tall as classic Link (omega manlet, like half botw Link)
6. DONKEY KONG COUNTRY 2
7. SUPA MARIO RPG
8. Idk maybe scale the items in totk off Link?

Needless to say, kinda dont have many options and they all vary from a lil sus to sus af.
 
Unfortuently no actual heights for people in this game, was gonna suggest maybe specifically compare him to AOL Classic Link since they're similar age but TP Link is about the same age as OOT and SS Link and he's under 5 feet tall so uh, maybe not.

In lack of more solid options maybe number 4 sounds the safest, just using average Link height for him doesn't sound too bad.
 
Just a small addition:

 
Yeah knew they said it but when i checked HH only found "shrunk to a shadow of its former glory".

Need that scan for a few Alttp calc ends (mostly medallion shit).
 
The storm clear prob gonna have 3 ends due to how abstracted the game world is.

On another note, do we have a way to scale AlttP's speed to other Link's? Was gonna say Ganon but he's roided out so idk.
 
Alttp has what's prob FTL calc, gonna calc a few speed feats for Hero of Time here in a few minutes, if all goes well we'd get like 3c.
Could get higher but the alt option not exactly easy to get a good angle of.
 
K so like, rough atm, but we 100% have FTL now, potentially up to atleast 12c.
