Hello, and welcome to gate Leapers, the pop culture game show that shines
0:22
a spotlight onto everyone's favorite fandoms. I'm your games master and personified embodiment of
0:28
evil. And that's Gannon. That's what you're happy with? That one,
0:33
you're But of course we couldn't play these games without our team captains, a
0:40
pair of short kings who are ready to save their princesses. First, she's
0:45
high and she rules. It's Audrey sevens in Hello, and he's a try
0:51
force of nature. It's Jason, thank you. Hello, Hello captains.
0:56
Are you ready for a series of games about the same legend told over and
1:00
over, but where the medium of that story changes based on current gaming trends?
1:04
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was talking about this. I've only
1:08
played two of the like eras I guess or whatever how you want to phrase
1:14
it. It's Breath of Lot, Tears of the Kingdom, and then Awkerdative
1:15
Time. Okay, so like one of the bigger names of this, but
1:19
I recently found out that, yeah, these games are basically the same but
1:23
different each time, and I really dig that concept. Yeah, yes,
1:26
it's nice and cyclical. That's to the mythology. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
1:30
it's like Mario where you're like, that's a Kopa, I know that,
1:34
but now it's Mario in space and that's kind of cool too. And
1:37
so they do the same thing with Zelda, but not in space yet.
1:40
Yeah, yeah, yees can simultaneously get some of that nostalgia safety energy without
1:47
but with also having new elements introduced every single time. So it's this really
1:51
cool combination of both yeah at the same time. So Jason's played a couple
1:55
of generations of Zelda Uldra, how about yourself. I've read the Wikipedia page
2:01
fantastic, So this is what I know. Um, I've played little bits
2:06
here and there, and I have watched and I've listened to the soundtracks.
2:08
I listened to video game soundtracks while I work. So um, if there's
2:13
any um song based rounds, there won't be do do do Do Do?
2:19
Do Do do do do? I almost did put a song based question,
2:23
then I decided not to. So yeah, sorry doesn't help the one place
2:27
I could have been helpful. So sorry to my teammates. Well, it
2:30
sounds like to play these games about the Legend of Zelda, you'll each need
2:35
to pair up with great warriors from the High Rule Planes because it's dangerous to
2:38
go alone. Yes, Jase, I was hoping you'd say that there's gonna
2:44
be a lot of that in this episode. Jason. Who is your teammates
2:49
today? He's a returning player, a podcaster, and a gamer. It's
2:52
Chase Keys of the Snescapade podcast. Hello, Chase, welcome back to the
2:57
podcast. Yeah. Oh nice, ye nice. So I had to back
3:02
up from the for that from the microphone for that one. Thank you.
3:06
Yeah, fantastic voice artistry at work. I love it. Credible. I
3:10
know you're going to sneeze there for a second. Just it's happening. Oh
3:15
no, I knew exactly what was coming on as you read the Wikipedia chaise.
3:22
So first of all, how are you doing? Oh you know,
3:23
I'm all right. I've decided to interrupt the forty eight hours straight that I've
3:28
been playing Tears of the Kingdom to come on the show. So nice taking
3:31
a break from Zelda Mozelda. Yes, exactly, it's a cleans it's a
3:37
cleanse. So I take it you're a fan of the Zelda franchise, then
3:40
yeah, I enjoy the Zelda franchise. Um, I'm not gonna say that,
3:46
like I go way back with Zelda. Um. I watched a friend
3:51
play it back on the nes when I was a kid, and that I
3:53
was like, this game looks like it's way too over my head. I
3:55
don't think I could ever figure this out him. So I didn't come to
3:59
it until pretty late, so I can't say that I am like a huge
4:01
seld expert, which is weird for someone whose pseudonym used to be steampunk link.
4:06
But yes, yeah, I don't care for steampunk either, so I
4:12
don't even know. Hey, that consistency. That was god A fan of
4:15
keys? Oh? I love keys. I I chase them. Ye,
4:21
good stuff? Do you have any I mean, I guess seeing a friend
4:26
play the old games? Did you ever play any of the old games back
4:29
in the day whatever that day? Maybe not back in the day, but
4:31
in college when I started getting into the series, I definitely went back and
4:34
played the original and it's like, oh, this this is pretty good.
4:38
I can see what like this back in the day? Nice? What were
4:40
the games that you did play? Can I ask? Um? I have
4:42
done the original? Okrane of Time, Um, wind Waker, Twilight,
4:46
Princess, and Oh Breath of the Wild and a season veteran you as well
4:54
as a team you're feeling into great gay. Yeah, I understand those phrases,
4:58
recognize those names. Stuff, good stuff and ultra. Who is joining
5:02
you today. She's also a returning player, a podcaster, a game,
5:08
a game. I like that better than gamer. Frankly, Yeah, it's
5:14
Emmy zero of the Sniscapades Podcast. Hello, Emmy, welcome back to the
5:17
podcast. Hello, Hello, it is lovely to be back. And I
5:21
gotta say, I think I could go with gamey because you know, we've
5:25
been trying to we've all been trying to get away from the term gamer.
5:28
Yeah, the last like nine years or so, so you know, it's
5:31
it's uh, you know, that's a good that's a good alternative. I
5:34
like that. Yeah, it's great to be back. It's great to be
5:38
here again with all of you. So I'm excited to talk about some Zelda
5:43
and show my extremely up and down knowledge based on what part of it we're
5:49
talking about. Yes, most of my knowledge is down. Anything you're bringing
5:56
to the table is just win after win for me. So I guess,
6:00
Amy, why are you bringing to the table. Have you got any like
6:04
fund memories with I do? I don't go all the way back to the
6:12
original original Zelda game. I, to my knowledge, never encountered the original
6:18
Zelda as a child, but I spent a lot of time with Zelda Two
6:26
Adventures of Link, which I did not understand was a radically different game than
6:31
the first one at the time. I just kind of thought, this is
6:34
what it was, and it was big and mysterious and it felt kind of
6:40
scary, and yeah, my cousin, who was a few years older than
6:44
me, had that and we would like visit them for like the summer usually,
6:48
so I watched him play a lot of it, and I got into
6:51
playing it. I remember the last dungeon of that game has an extraordinarily complicated
7:00
layout, like it's huge, and okay. I watched him spend like,
7:03
you know, a full day and a half trying to figure out the way
7:06
through that, and then uh uh, somebody else in our family accidentally walked
7:12
into the room and like kicked the Uh yeah, I mean that game does,
7:19
let you say, but not inside a dungeon, so you know,
7:25
so yeah, totally, um but yeah, I've played little bits of a
7:30
bunch of different Sellda games, and I've played about five of them through to
7:35
completion. I've played I've played a Link to the Past, which I actually
7:43
only did that a couple of years ago, so it's fresh. Yes,
7:46
I played through the completely played through the wind Waker, Twilight Princess, Um,
7:54
Skyward Sword, and I got up to the last dungeon like kind of
8:01
halfway through the last dunsion of the game, way advanced one the minished cap
8:05
It was a very good game, but yeah, but I did get kind
8:09
of frustrated and never never quite Yes, that's one of the capcom ones um.
8:13
And I've played little bits of Um. And of course I've played I've
8:18
played some Breath of the Wild, and I've played quite a bit more Tears
8:24
of the Kingdom at this point than I had than I ever played, Yes
8:26
wild, because I was really really I really like Tears of the Kingdom a
8:33
lot. So yeah, this season it's a time of recording. This is
8:39
still Tears of the Kingdom season. It sure is. Yeah the Kingdom like
8:43
Tears of joy Man. Yeah, sure, I'm an odd thing where I
8:50
I in some ways I'm actually like much more likely to complete any zulta game
8:56
that's a little bit a little bit more off base, I guess off off
9:01
the kind of ideal for the series. Um, and also to play any
9:05
game that is like very much in the mold of Zelda, but is not
9:11
actually a Zelda game, So like, you know, yeah, Beyond Good
9:15
and Evil, the first Darksiders game, UM, that Breath of the that
9:22
Breath of the Wild style game that Ubisoft put out a few years ago.
9:26
I'm aware that most of these are not as good as actual Zelda games,
9:30
but for some reason they feel a little less like intimidating to me or something.
9:35
But I do really like zeldah and I have I have really fond memories
9:39
of of Zelda games, you know, from kind of throughout my gaming life.
9:43
So yeah, good stuff, good stuff. I mean, I think
9:46
that's enough passion and maybe enough knowledge to help sup pull Audrahea in in the
9:52
Quest for and then Zelda title that is Quest for Something. I'm sure one
9:56
of them, like thirty of them nine come on, yeah, I gotta
10:01
get it right, Are we counting the CDI games? Oh? They might.
10:03
They may get a mention in the next nineteen minutes. They may get
10:07
a little looking Hey listen, teams, wake up. The Great Decutrey wants
10:13
to talk to you. And that oaky prick would like each pat to come
10:16
up with a Zelda themed team name. Please, let's start with Chase and
10:20
Jason or Chasen. Oh, Chasen. I like that. How about that
10:24
be our team name? Uh? Okay, um m m so Chase if
10:33
you if you're I'll say some of my bad ones that have written down you
10:37
think of some good ones. Yeah, So I've got here, Uh,
10:39
the heavy Ginger Peeky Daddies. Uh, that's Gannon's door. Yes, I
10:46
only call him heavy. It's not a fat joke. He's just he's my
10:48
smash mane. He's a guy. He's heavy. Yeah. I've got the
10:52
sleepy green caps. What is that? Why does he always wear it?
10:56
Do they even exist in the wild now anymore? The sleepy nappy you know
11:00
what I'm talking about? The sleep Captain? Yeah? From Victorian cartoons.
11:03
Yeah, Princess in the Castle. That's a reference to another reference right there.
11:09
Yeah. I just couldn't find a way to put It's dangerous to go
11:15
Alone in a team name for that, okay, yeah? Yeah. And
11:18
then the last one is the Unbreakable clay Pots, which is like a zeldamme,
11:22
you're like smashing a clay pot for some rupees. You know what I
11:26
mean? Oh yeah, okay, yeah, so we're the unbreakable clay pots.
11:28
So should we hear what Chase has to unbroken? I was trying to
11:35
think of something relating to Corox just you know, they're they're all over the
11:39
darn place and yeah, yeah, the switch games, Um, I mean
11:43
the in Tears of the Kingdom. The Corocks always say things like I need
11:48
to get to my friend, and that's really annoying and hilarious because you can
11:52
just ship them on a rocket outer space nowadays. Yeah, I like the
11:56
Corrock friends. The Corrock friends just simply call the rock friends. Um,
12:01
yeah, we're just that. What's the name of the big core rocket get
12:05
hit hittsu Het Sue? Yeah, Hsue? What about what? What about
12:09
het sus Moraccas? How about that fort sus moraccas? As good? As
12:13
soon as you said that, I thought, okay, you said that,
12:16
I thought that. I thought that was a good idea. He se miraccas.
12:20
I love it. Yeah, I'm happy to go with that as a
12:22
team name. For those who don't know, you pick up seeds. But
12:24
all the seeds look like pieces of poop. I mean, they're they're pretty
12:28
they are, aren't they. That's that's like the final reveal about them,
12:33
if you collect all a thousand of them in breath Wild, just lend that
12:37
for sure. Yeah, I definitely just learned that that's actually poop. I
12:41
thought. Yeah, I thought they were just being cheeky. You get you
12:45
get a big you get a big golden poop for finding all of them.
12:46
Uh yeah, I almost thought about going with like big golden poop, but
12:50
that we're trying to keep the show classy. Yeah, yeah, class show,
12:56
look at look at mass jacket. Class show, class show, classy
13:00
jacket. I was just trying to think of what's the least classiest thing I
13:03
could do. The only thing that came into my mind was shit myself.
13:07
I thought to do that on a podcast. So and I pick it up
13:11
and call it a chloroxy, and I will give you a shiny troupe.
13:16
Okay, we have the Hetsu Miracas, but let's find out who they'll be
13:20
facing, uldra Emmy. I have two not great ideas, but all I
13:26
could come up with in my limited knowledge was very weak word play like try
13:31
force, but it's a try because I'm gonna try my best one that Matt
13:37
used earlier high Rule. But we're from Colorado, so high as an high.
13:46
This is as far as I got. Okay, so I got a
13:50
few, and they are all kind of I think I gravitated more towards the
13:54
monsters from Solida because they have fun names. I have the ox Rocklings,
14:05
you know, kind of like a little crossover with Splatoon, another Nintendo franchise.
14:11
This is kind of biting off a little bit of the name that Chase
14:16
came up with for his team in the Star Trek episode the Gleeock Glee Club.
14:26
Oh I had a third one, didn't I I'm sorry I didn't write
14:28
these down down. Yeah, not a monster, but just a good little
14:33
guy. Tingles, Rosy Ruby Hunters, he Tingle is somebody who I know
14:39
about. Everyone should know about Tingle. I mean, I'm not gonna try
14:46
and show you in a direction, but I really am going to give you
14:48
a verbal shove and saying maybe we go with the Tingle one that could be
14:52
fun. I'm absolutely down for that. I was looking through like the names
14:56
of all the games and like associated ones, and it's like one of them
15:01
is like Tingles Balloon, Ride of Love. Yeah, I was sold.
15:07
I was sold. Yeah, he's just like a rupy obsessed guy too,
15:11
like Link has his honorable journey to save the princess and all of the land.
15:16
Okay, she's trying to get rich. Tingle, he just wants to
15:18
make money. He wants two things. He wants to get rich, and
15:22
he wants to be a fairy. Isn't that like what we're all after,
15:26
you know, in this that we're living in. It's true yet rich be
15:31
fairy? Absolute Yeah, Tingles, rosy, rupy hunters. I love it.
15:37
I love it so much. That's a good name. If you're happy
15:41
to go with it. Yeah, yeah, all right. And if you're
15:43
listening to this and thinking I'm ready for ninety minutes of pop culture quizzing.
15:48
But if I'm completely honest, I still think Selder is the little Green Chap
15:52
don't worry his order with a little segment we like to call passing knowledge.
15:58
The Legend of Zelda is an action adventure game franchise originally published via Nintendo in
16:04
nineteen eighty four. The gameplay incorporates action adventure puzzles and elements of action RPG
16:11
games. The Legend of Zelda centers around Link, a courageous young man and
16:15
Zelda, a Princess and reincarnation of a Goddess, saving the land of High
16:21
Rule from Ghannon, an evil warlord, demon King. The second game centers
16:26
are written link a courageous Seen and Zelda, a Princess and reincarnation of a
16:30
Goddess saving the land from High Rule of High Rule from Ghannon, an evil
16:36
warlord, demon King the third. While the central conflict remains similar Throughout the
16:44
game series, Zelda has defined each console generation and has evolved gameplay across several
16:51
genres. The game's development has helped innovate groundbreaking features within gaming, such as
16:56
saving game progress, controlling the King and Review, and using a singular button
17:02
for multiple interaction, uses main characters with little green hats, and an increase
17:07
in popularity of triangles by about forty eight percent based on a study that I
17:11
just made up. The Zelda franchise continues to push the boundaries of technology while
17:18
creating captivating experiences for players. Now, let's call Navies so she can guide
17:22
us to some Zelda themed games. Nice, nice, good reference at the
17:27
end there, and just before we get to today's games, I've asked each
17:30
player to bring in a muse, something that inspires them or something they love
17:36
from this particular fandom. Zelda is inspiring to me because Breath of the Wild
17:41
helped provide exposure therapy for my megalophobia, and while I had to tap out
17:45
after about twenty thirty hours, I now believe I could visit the Statue of
17:48
Liberty without having a panic attack. That's very cool. I love that for
17:52
you. But it's enough about me. What's inspiring you, um, But
18:03
what's inspiring me is first shout out to my friend Vance, who's a big
18:07
legend of Zelda fan. Yes, so much so, lifelong friend. But
18:12
he made me some legend of Zelda earrings. One is a master sword,
18:18
the other is a hilly and shield. The only problem with that is I
18:22
don't have both my ears pierce, so I can only wear one at a
18:23
time. That's a mean problem. But I'm wearing them now. I would
18:27
show it off to the camera. It's just not very visible on our camera.
18:33
So I'll post it on social media and you can look at those.
18:36
You can't order them, They're only mine. I like being special. Also,
18:40
I have needles we can we can pierce out of it. I'm joking.
18:44
I'm joking. Please do not do that at home. Please go somewhere
18:47
sterilize the steps sterilization. It's nice. I didn't even recognize the Zelda thing,
18:52
which is more about how well I've done my research. But when you
18:56
when you arrived today and you had to sold in your your I was like,
18:59
oh, yeah, very cool, thank you, thank you. But
19:03
yeah, friendship is very cool and making things is very cool. I can't
19:07
disagree with those sentences. Both excellent sentiments and therefore an excellent muse thank you.
19:12
But let's move on over to your teammates, Chase, what is inspiring
19:17
you see, I'm not big on like wearing stuff on my hands. I've
19:22
never been a watch person. I've never been a ring person. Can't can't
19:25
handle it's weird. It's weird having stuff on my hands. But yeah,
19:26
I get that. But when you get married, you're expected to wear a
19:30
wedding ring. And so I was trying to figure out how to, you
19:33
know, how this is going to work. My wife, who also likes
19:37
video games a lot, we both came up with the idea that we would
19:42
just get um pixel y hearts and obviously the audiences are going to see this,
19:47
and I don't know how else going to show up here. But we
19:52
both got little pixel heart tattoos. And now, like a lot of video
19:53
games have used hearts as you know, health meters and stuff like that,
19:57
but I think like Zelda, like original Zelda is a pretty like like definitely
20:03
kind of set the standard for that. And so, uh yeah, you
20:07
know a lot of people whenever they see a pixelated heart, it's like,
20:08
oh, it's a Zelda heart. So so I'll go with that. That,
20:12
I'll go with my I'll go with my my little bit super cool a
20:15
wedding ring thing that is adorable. It's one of the most romantic things that's
20:19
ever been said on this podcast hosted by husband and wife do a partly.
20:26
That's fantastic. Well, I can't think of a better thing to be inspired
20:30
by than love. Yeah, fantastic. Okay, we've had the inspirations from
20:34
the Heetsu Miracas. I hope I said that right close enough. But now
20:40
let's have the muses from Tingles Rosy Rupee Hunters and we will begin with Emmy.
20:45
Oh yeah, so uh this is actually uh, I feel like this
20:49
is a slightly more recent thing, but it is the thing that really inspires
20:55
me about about the Zelda series, and I think this is especially true of
21:00
the two most modern Zelda games. But I think that if you look back,
21:03
it is it is absolutely a thing that's been been there for for a
21:07
lot of people. And that is the fact that, uh, Link is
21:12
kind of like a perfect character to kind of map your identity onto. Yeah,
21:17
and um, you know, when you are playing as Link, you
21:21
can kind of be whatever whatever you imagine imagine them to be, you know.
21:26
And I know that uh, you know, the games themselves have kind
21:32
of had a little bit of a shaky, a shaky time with this concept.
21:36
But I think that especially in the two modern games, the fact that
21:40
you can you can style Link differently, you can can kind of play in
21:45
different ways. There's all these different sort of ways for you to interpret interpret
21:52
Link and how you've been into the world as him. It really does inspire
21:56
me. It makes me feel really good. And I love and I love
22:00
the way that, like legend of Zelda fandom has has sort of taken to
22:04
that. And you know, I have been a part of a lot of
22:08
fandoms that have been able to to, you know, find find a way
22:15
in for people that don't feel like they are necessarily fully represented in the game,
22:21
and I think that that the Zelda series provides a stronger way in than
22:26
even a lot of things do, and it just makes ye so yeah,
22:29
yeah. I was reading something on the Wikipedia about like the naming of the
22:34
character link and the thought process of that being like quite literally the link between
22:41
the player and the world that they're in, and so like increasing the amount
22:47
of ways in which this character is you in this world is really true too.
22:52
Yeah, it feels like for that character, it feels like having the
22:56
iconography of like an iconic character that kind of look similar between the games,
23:00
but ultimately it's still almost this blank slate of where you can map on identity
23:07
is still quite that's an impressive line to straddle as well. But they hit
23:11
they hit it. Yeah, yeah, good stuff. That's that's an excellent
23:14
news, great thing to be inspired by. Okay, and finally, Audre,
23:18
what's inspiring you from the Zelda series. I always seek things to like
23:22
embolden me as a person, you know, like I never want to make
23:27
a wrong choice or like look silly in most situations. But every now and
23:33
then when I'm like, Okay, no, you can take this leap of
23:36
faith, I think about a T shirt that I have seen more than once.
23:41
Um, and it just said what if Zelda was the girl? And
23:47
every time, every now and then when I'm like, oh, yeah,
23:48
I don't want to make I don't want to make a mistake, I'm like,
23:52
yeah, but that shirt exists and it's sold. Just take just sw
23:57
Yeah I really want that shirt now, just to make like every time I
24:02
go into a game stop, just walk into a game stop, not even
24:04
buy anything. Yeah, just to people. I yes, yes, that's
24:11
what we're using now. Yes, but yeah, that just inspires me because
24:15
I'm like, I can take big sweet, Yeah, I won't look that
24:18
silly. If someone's that confident to make that much money off of something like
24:23
that, then yeah, you can do anything. I'm going to give them
24:26
money too, so you can't do anything excellent, muse good to be inspired
24:32
by. I think safe to say, not quite as like touching as everyone
24:36
else is, but not at all you know, inspiring nonetheless. Yes,
24:41
right, teams, Let's take the sword and set out on our Hyruleian adventure
24:47
as we play round one. Round one is called try forcing a Zelda pun
24:56
title and I did, and I and we can all agree it worked in
25:03
this game, I will give our teams a Zelda themed category, followed by
25:07
five things supposedly from that category. The twist is only three of them actually
25:12
are, hence triforce. So you're seeking the triforce with a question. Okay
25:18
as a pair, teams must choose correct answers one by one until they have
25:23
up to three points. But name one incorrect list item and you'll be frozen
25:29
out of your list. Okay, I should have thought of something that happens
25:33
in Zelda when you die and said that is the piece of coffee there.
25:37
This first list is for Hetsu Mirakas, and the category overall for both of
25:42
these next two lists is bosses. Bosses from the Zelda series, some maybe
25:48
more popular than others, some maybe very niche. But here is the list
25:52
of five names for Hetsu Mirakas, King Dodongo, bog Meyer, Dark Hammer,
26:02
Gannon Prime, and Big Liar. My My, My Zelda experience is
26:07
showing here. I feel like King Didondo is a real one. Chase,
26:12
Yeah, I think so that sounds correct, because would you would you like
26:17
to select it off? The last Let's say, I mean like, is
26:21
there anyone that you're like, Yeah, that's definitely a boss. Yeah,
26:23
because I remember in um one of the CDI games, Link talks about how
26:26
he can't wait to bust some didanos. So Dongo going King Dodongo. Yeah,
26:33
that is a correct boss from Acarina of Time. Oh is King Dodongo.
26:37
That's the one I played, all right, Good job, Jason.
26:41
That's the point. There are two more correct bosses they I'll read the four
26:44
remaining bog Maya, Dark Hammer, Gannon Prime, and Big Liar. I'm
26:52
hesitant on Gannon Prime because I don't remember a Zelda game where a truck comes
26:57
in, you know, and then just transforms and you know, I mean,
27:03
there have been a lot of variants on Gannon. There's been yeah Gannon,
27:08
Gannon Dwarf, Dark be Scannon, Clamony gan Yeah yeah, yeah Clamon
27:12
again and of course you know or or you know, Evil Smoke Pig Gannon.
27:17
Uh yeah. Um. I can't think of a Gannon prime though,
27:21
so I'm gonna say let's let's hold off on that one. Um yeah,
27:23
that's a no go. Dark Hammer sounds like a Zelda boss. I don't
27:26
remember that boss. I know there's like dark Knots or Dark Nuts, something
27:32
like that that are like dark nuts. Yeah, I just think that's really
27:33
funny talking nuts. It sound like an almond. Or don't ask me.
27:42
I don't want to go down this rif. Sometimes you feel like a nut,
27:45
sometimes you don't. Sometimes you're feeling dark. Uh here we go.
27:51
Um, so maybe dark Hammer that's just the naming convention. That sounds like
27:55
a Zelda thing to me, like the one you said at the end.
27:56
What did you say, big liar, Big liar? That sounds fake,
28:00
which is why I feel like this is a maybe, like this is a
28:03
double bluff situation going on here. I don't know. I could go with
28:07
dark Camera or I could go with big Liar. Um. I've been called
28:11
both frankly, So you know the dark Hamera chase. Let's go with Bogmer,
28:18
the one. We haven't talked about it at all. Actually, I
28:22
don't want to go with bog Meyer. I feel like that's Jesus. I
28:25
feel like that's either a place or something from a different game. Okay,
28:27
So I'm gonna pull the trigger and say dark heads do it. He's saying
28:30
dalk Hamera. Yeah, dok Hamma is a real boss. Yeah from Twilight
28:34
Princess. All Right, okay, all right, all right, all right,
28:37
game so there is one more real boss left in Okay, um,
28:41
so it's not game. Yeah, I say, let's let's throw out again.
28:45
You know, let's let's go with big Liar. Let's just let's just
28:47
do it big liars, big, big liar. Yeah, big liars real,
28:51
Oh my gosh. Absolutely, let's go chase from one of the Tingle
28:55
games t game perfect, perfect while stuff we hit it? Yeah, Gannon
29:02
prime, you correctly identified. That's not a vosion of Gannon. I put
29:06
it in there to trip you up. Did not work. Yeah, Well
29:08
I'm closest. I'll get to mentioning transformers on this podcast. You wait,
29:14
and yeah, Bogya is actually from a different game. Would you like to
29:18
take a stab in the dark? Well, this could be I could.
29:21
I could offer a bonus point. Actually feeling generous, trying to think I
29:26
got no clue. You don't need to give me a point. But can
29:29
I get for it her? Well? Absolutely, that's up to the host.
29:32
Is it is? It is our bog myers from the Witcher? Oh
29:36
maybe they're also from the Witcher, because they do sound like they're from the
29:38
Witch. Sounds like sounds absolutely sounds like I think Luigi's Mansion Luigi Whisper.
29:48
But there we go. We'll say no bonus points. Well, we're just
29:52
just a fun that's just cha. Yeah, okay, fine, yeah,
29:56
okay, right in if you knew that Bugmo was from Luigi's mansion gately pas
30:00
gmail dot com. Okay, we will move over to Tingles Rosy Ruby Hunters.
30:04
Maybe I'll should be shortening this to Tingles Rosies. Maybe I don't know.
30:07
I didn't want to actually good to say Tingles. Here is your list
30:12
of Zelda bosses, dig Dogger, Captain Keta, the Moonfish King, Pinstripe,
30:22
Bongo Bongo. Those are some crazy names. You know. I'm not
30:29
familiar with any thing a top of my head. Um okay, Adre,
30:34
do you have any any thoughts, any any things that feel real to you
30:40
just based on how you know, like things in Zelda are named because yeah,
30:45
I don't know why, but Moonfish King, I want him to be
30:49
real. Okay, we all want the moon Moonfish King does sound real to
30:56
me. So does Bongo Bongo for some reason. Yeah, that feels like
31:02
it would be the name of a Zalta boss. So those two I feel
31:07
reasonably good about Do you want to trust your knowledgeable teammates on a Yeah,
31:15
maybe let's go for Bongo bongo, bongo bongo. Yes, yes, Bongo
31:19
bongo is all right from Acarina of Time. I recognize that one. Excellent,
31:26
excellent. What were the other The other three that I know there was
31:32
Captain Yes right, yes, yes, and Dick Dagga Pinstripe and the Moonfish
31:38
King still dangling from a from a tent to hook m Well, but I
31:45
was going to say, the thing is, we could lock in Moonfish King
31:47
if we're kind of confident about it. But what if it's wrong? But
31:51
that's the point of the game. I mean, I will say I still
31:55
feel better about Moonfish King than I do about any of the other ones.
31:57
Okay, okay, you're going with Moonfish King. Yes, it's a lockout.
32:05
He's entirely made up. What I could invent you care links Awakening or
32:14
something like that, because I know that that was crazy. Okay, So
32:17
the real ones were dig Dalga from Legend of Zelda the first game and Captain
32:24
Keta is from Majora's Mask. I did kind of think Captain Keta might be
32:30
a real one, but I was really unsure about it because sometimes Zelda bosses
32:35
are just a guy. Sometimes they just have a person's game and you have
32:39
to fight them. So you know, I was like, well, that
32:42
could be one of those. Yeah. Unfortunately I don't do that well with
32:47
time loop games, so I haven't really played that much of Majora's Mask.
32:52
So yeah, and any guesses as to where Pinstripe was from or is from
32:58
as a as a video game, a boss from a different video game,
33:00
I don't know. It nice nice, I like it for the suits.
33:07
I have no idea. Is it like a horror game? I feel like
33:10
it's a horror name shore Pinhead. Yeah, it's pen never mind no from
33:15
Crash Bandicoot from the first Okay, okay, next one, Spiro No no,
33:23
next one. We're actually going to move on to a new category.
33:27
We're going to move on to characters, general characters, more the people you
33:30
interact with. There's a whole lot and a whole lot of funny names as
33:37
well, So let's get out right. I can't wait. Back on over
33:40
to Hetsu Miracas. Here is your list. Honkle Guru Guru okay, doctor
33:47
Fufu Beadle okay, fish Man all right, So I mean, right off
33:55
the bat, I'm gonna take Yeah, yep, you know Beatle. You
34:00
got Beatle. Yeah, you're lucking down Beatle. Yeah, Beatle is correct.
34:04
Beat character Beetles pretty pretty famous character, pretty famous character. Okay,
34:08
I think Emmy just made the noise of whatever noise a Beatle. Oh you
34:14
did, I know? Being back then? Yeah, a fantastic Okay,
34:21
so you got Beatle Beetles safe. Yeah, doctor fou fou kind of sound
34:25
because there's always like fee and kufu and like all these other like weird syllable
34:30
names. But I don't know if you ever meet a doctor in any of
34:34
these. Yeah, Like have they established a medical school and high role yet?
34:38
I don't know we need one when you can just go to a fountain
34:43
and all of your wounds are exactly right. Yeah. Usually I just eat
34:46
like thirty apples in the middle of a fight, and I'm good. Figured
34:50
out socialized healthcare and high role and it's a giant lady in a flower button.
34:54
That's what we need. Very camp lady in a flower bud as well.
34:58
I love the I love them. Yes, that's the thing that I
35:01
don't know if it's gonna come up at all in the show. But God,
35:05
I love I love every iteration of the Great Fairies. But I do
35:08
really love the ones in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom because
35:15
they're huge and they're just living their best lives. The Nintendo whoever green lights
35:19
Selda game and like they don't have a great fairy who's like a drag queen,
35:22
I will burn down a movie theater honestly, Like, yeah, yeah,
35:25
it's a staple. It's a staple. Okay, So it's doctor Fufu,
35:30
right, what are the other ones? Yes, you have you have
35:32
Unkle, Guru Guru, doctor Fufu, and fish Man. I feel I'm
35:40
feeling honkle for some reason. I'm I'm feeling Honkle as well. We're feeling
35:45
Hong. Yeah, you're feeling Hong. Go on to feel Hong. Yeah,
35:49
there a honkle. Yes, I'm afraid it's a lock out. God
35:52
damn it. You screwed us again? Is it the Fufou? Was it?
35:57
The Fufu was one? I know? Doctor Fufu is made up as
36:00
well. Yeah, entirely both of those entirely made up. Guru Guru is
36:04
also known as the music Box guy from Okarina at time, damn it to
36:07
hell, and then Fishman is just another character from Windwaker. But I was
36:12
like Fishman, come, yeah, I was thinking, I remember fish Man.
36:16
That guy was fine, that guy was good. Um, I think
36:21
there was like a haunt you. And that's maybe what you're thinking of with
36:23
Hunkol Maybe yeah, maybe Uncle just sounds kind of like Tingle in all those
36:28
other names. Yeah, yeah, but you just up. I certainly did
36:30
wish it was my name because then, like my nieces could call me Uncle
36:34
Hunkel. That's fantastic, Hu, that's good. That's good. Okay.
36:44
Sticking with the character's category, let's move back on over to Team Tingle.
36:49
Here are your five characters. Mystic Mamut, Happy Masks Salesman, Crazy Tracy,
36:58
Uku and Son Gruce, Phil Prong Tracy. I know I know one
37:06
of these for sure. A Happy Masks salesman. That's a real one.
37:09
Definitely that. Yep, you're saying, definitely Happy Mass salesman. Happy with
37:15
that captain, Yes, Yes, happy Mass sales salesman absolutely real. Does
37:19
a point lock it in? Get the point good? Yeah. The other
37:22
one's all sound pretty real to me. I'm trying to think of, like,
37:28
because most of them have had something like something from a different game.
37:30
Trying to see if I recognize anything from a different game. Yeah, Ouku
37:35
reminds me also of Crash Bandicoo, but I could be leading astray nominating that
37:42
one. There's a character in Skyward Sword named Grouse that I don't think that's
37:49
short for anything. I don't think Gruceville Prong is necessarily is necessarily that character.
37:58
But there is a character named Grouse, so that's that's something. Um.
38:04
I feel like Crazy Tracy might be a real one. Actually, even
38:07
if it's not, I'm willing to bet on Crazy Tracy, I believe in
38:10
her. Okay with Crazy Tracy as a correct boss. Crazy Tracy is a
38:16
correct boss from Links Awakening. Oh all right, cool Cells used cars too,
38:23
So you have one left to find out of Mystic mamots Uku and Son
38:30
and Gruceville Prone, we haven't given much attention to the first one, Yeah,
38:36
mystict. Yeah yeah, I'm trying to think of how that, how
38:39
that sounds, how that kind of hits on the tongue, like, does
38:43
that does that feel real? Does that feel like one that would would have
38:47
come up? I feel like that one is is a real name from something?
38:52
I just don't know if that is from Zelda, you know, it's
38:55
from this, Yeah, it's from this. I kind of feel better about
39:01
it than I do about Uku and Son. Is it lesser more than the
39:06
last one? Well? The thing about the last one that I still don't
39:10
know what to think about the last one because it contains the name of a
39:14
for sure real character, Yeah, but it is not. I have no
39:19
idea if like that character just has like a full name I'm not aware of,
39:23
or if if this is you know, or if that or if that
39:29
that name of that character was a reference to this character in a difference all
39:32
the game that I didn't play or something, you know. So it's very
39:36
muddled. I I feel like I am honestly kind of equally split on all
39:42
three of these. If you want me to clarify, we're in the exact
39:45
same place where we started. If you want, I will take a swing
39:50
and then take the blame if it's wrong. We're going to go with the
39:54
last one that is mine you while going with Greeceville prom yes, because it
39:59
feels like something that they would introduce in one line of dialogue and be like
40:02
my name is this call me CRUCEM sure, let's find out. No,
40:07
I'm afraid it's not Gruce Phil Prong. I think Emmy was picking up on
40:12
exactly what I was doing there. I just took the name of the character
40:15
and added some extra things. Tricky little man, it is the last real
40:21
one Uku and son? Dat it those weird bird things from one of the
40:28
dungeons. Yeah, I would say it looks like the skeleton of the and
40:30
then those things were so weird. That's the way that you go. That's
40:37
a character with a function in the game. Actually, that's a character that
40:42
Uku will give you their son, which is just like a head. Like
40:47
it's like, it's like this creepy skeletal bird thing and its son is just
40:52
like a copy of its head. And that is the way that you transmit
40:57
in and out of the dungeons, like and if your place in the dungeon.
41:01
Oh, that's so there we go. I'm so sorry. I was
41:05
like that, this actually feels like something else. Oh god, no,
41:09
it's the audacity of Captain Chip. That's that's the thing. I remember that
41:14
character vividly. I did not remember that character's name, So you see that
41:19
character once and it's burned into your mind forever. You can't out ever.
41:24
Everyone google let Uku ins one looks like real quick. Yeah, everyone enjoyed
41:28
that. And then we come back with the category and then search for it
41:30
on TV and art and see what happened. Oh my god? Is that
41:35
a good thing or a bad thing? Uku Daddy, depends on your persuasion.
41:42
Okay, I've got one final category, one final list for each team,
41:46
and this category is spinoff slash side games Zelda series. And maybe there's
41:52
some knowledge that's been thrown about already, So which of the following was spinoff
41:58
or side games from the Zelda friend chise. We will begin with Hetzumarrakas.
42:01
Here is your list, freshly picked, Tingles, Rosy Rupee Land, Zelda,
42:08
The Staff of Evil m Tingles, Magic Ride Over, High Rule out
42:15
There, Zelda, The Wand of Gamelon, and the Legend of Zelda Official
42:22
Game Watch. Okay, all right, okay, Well, first just want
42:25
to say the Wand of Gamelan very close to the Winds of Avalon, which
42:30
is just a joking step. Wand of Gamelan is real that that one is
42:34
an actually Philip CDI game. I know that one great was making a joke,
42:38
Chase, awesome, love and you as a partner. No, this
42:42
is good. This is you got the funny joke in and now it's the
42:44
actual correct answer and we can just move on. So great. Yeah,
42:46
awesome, No, fantastic, that's a point. Absolutely, I'm going there
42:50
from the Philip CDI. Have you played this before, Chase, No.
42:52
I recently did an episode in April Fools episode about CDI games and we talked
42:59
about it. But Philip cd I emulation is not really there yet as far
43:04
as I know, and I ain't buying one of those things just for a
43:07
joke. So I've only got one memory of Philip cd I of one friend
43:13
who had a Philip CDI, and it was the mad Dog McCree game like
43:16
with the video. Oh yeah, the video thing where you shoot it and
43:21
stuff. And I remember at the time thinking, oh yeah, this could
43:22
actually be good like movies being a game, until none of the controls were
43:27
right. It was a complete disaster of a gaming session. Yeah. Great,
43:30
great version of Tetris on that thing though, with a really wonderful quasi
43:35
vapor wave soundtrack. Love it nice. It's always a silver lining, Yes,
43:39
Philip cd I the one of game one. Um, I think the
43:45
game watch is real. I'm trying to think, like, because I guess
43:47
that would have been a game and watch thing. I'm trying to think,
43:51
like did they ever do Oh no, wait no, they released that.
43:53
Um this actually came out recently. They released that special game and watch esque
43:59
version of the original Zelda. Oh yeah, yeah, that is one.
44:01
That is one. Oh yes, you're saying the Legend of Zelder official game
44:05
watch is one. It is. Yes, Yeah, I think I was
44:08
referencing an even older one that came out like back in the day. But
44:12
maybe they've done a new one as well. Yeah, I think they did
44:15
a new one, and I think people have already hacked it to run more
44:17
emulators. Emulators. And then the last one, it's one of the tingle
44:27
ones. Yeah, it's got to be one of the tingle ones. But
44:29
they mentioned audre mentioned a tingle one. It was a lot of words,
44:31
and there's a lot of words in their name that would you like me to
44:35
repeat the two tingles? Yes, okay, I'll tingle it up all right,
44:38
freshly picked Tingles, Rosy Rupee Lens and Tingles Magic ride Over high Rules
44:47
see the Rupie one that sounds like what they were based in the name off
44:52
Off. Yeah, so it's gotta be that, right, I thowise it.
44:55
Just chose a bunch of grab bag fucking words out of nowhere, and
44:59
I don't like. Yeah, so it's kind of you that. I think
45:00
we'll go with that. I think we're gonna go. Yeah, you'll go
45:04
with that one. No, we're a mystery. I'll go with that.
45:07
I just doing things now. That is the correct answer to prove that this
45:12
is largely a ninety percent improvised podcast. I had no idea that they would
45:15
pick that as their team name. Yeah, so there we go, So
45:20
well done. Congratulations there, that's three out of three. Good job,
45:22
Zelda. The Staff of Evil is kind of a variation on a different Philip
45:25
CDI game and Tingles Magic Ride over High Rule. I believe there was a
45:30
Tingles balloon ride. Yes, I thought I heard Addres say something about balloon
45:34
ride. Yeah, that's why I was only contemplating the other one. Yeah,
45:37
they didn't bring a lot of the Tingle stuff over State Side because it's
45:40
just just too tingly for American audience. Tingly cowards, absolute cowards. Okay.
45:49
Final list of Zelda spinoff games or side games, this time for Team
45:54
Tingle. We'll see if there's a Tingle answer hidden amongst it. Here are
46:00
your five games. Links, Crossbow Training, High Rule Huskies, sled Races,
46:07
Ripened Tingles, Balloon, Trip of Love, Oh, Juicy Tingles,
46:13
Crystal and bs, the Legend of Zelda. Okay, I do know it's
46:22
definitely Ripened Tingles because I remember, I think I remember reading that on the
46:27
Like Big List and being like ripened, ripened several times of just being like
46:35
ripen. Sometimes he's spreshally picked and sometimes he's ripened. Yeah, no,
46:42
no love for Juicy Tingles, crist A crystal flavored adventure Juicy Tingle on there.
46:47
That would make a good vaporwave album title. Yeah, that's some juicy
46:52
tangles on this one. But yeah, d that that is a real one.
46:58
I'm pretty sure, all right, Yes, it is Ripe and Tingles,
47:00
Balloon, Trip of Love. There's a point. I've gotten a point,
47:05
I knew an answer. I'm out see you later. Actually I think
47:09
it was good and shockingly Links Crossbow Training also a real game. Do you
47:15
know that for sure? Okay, you're happy to go with that? Yes,
47:21
yeah, I should just bypass you really. Yes, Links Crossbow Training
47:24
is correct one, I believe for the way or the way you yeah,
47:29
we game because it was they were trying to promote the pointer controls, so
47:35
they made a thing where you just shoot stuff as link. That's it.
47:40
Yeah, that feels like the Wee era. I'm just way to joke about
47:44
that game before. And so when that game was announced, I got very
47:47
nervous, even though I didn't do anything. And then I was like,
47:50
oh my god, Audrey could tell if I'm nervous, and that's a real
47:52
one, and I got more nervous. No, you didn't call. You
47:54
didn't call your team Links Crossbow Training. I'm OK. So there is one
48:00
more left to find. You've got high Rule Huskies, sledge Races, Juicy
48:06
Tingles, Crystal Flavor, The Adventure, which you probably are already eliminating,
48:10
and BS the legend of Zelda. This is actually one where I'm pretty sure
48:16
that my retrogaming knowledge more than my Zelda knowledge helps me helps me figure out
48:24
the right one. Because I've never heard it called this before, but I
48:29
think BS Zelda is broadcast to tell of you Zelda, which was the weird
48:37
super Fami coom add on that they made in Japan where you could download download
48:46
special versions of games through the like Japanese like broadcast system basically, and I
48:55
believe they did have a Zelda one, so I think that probably is the
49:00
real one here. I'm absolutely willing to go for it. Okay, same,
49:06
BS the Legend of Zelda. That's a crazy piece of knowledge. If
49:08
that's right, by the way, it is, it is right, It
49:14
is absolutely right. It was listed on both like the regular Wikipedia and the
49:19
fandom Wikipedia as BS the Legend of Zelda, which thought was really funny because
49:22
it's like bullshit. Yeah yeah, a couple of funny yeah. Yeah,
49:27
yeah, that's fantastic knowledge. Emmy, that's exactly right. Yep. That
49:30
that uh that super does sound like it would be a fake game. Yeah.
49:36
I wish the Huskies one was real. I really wish that there was
49:39
like a sled racing Zelda, a sled dog racing Zelda game. Though,
49:44
yeah, it's I immediately eliminated it because I wanted it too bad. So
49:49
I was like, if this existed, I would have known, yes,
49:52
right, yeah, absolutely. I was hoping that she was going to get
49:57
it wrong because I wanted to sound really smart and crattle off all of that
50:00
about the broadcast to tell of you. But she beat me to it,
50:05
So as the co host of a retrogaming podcast, we have we definitely believe
50:09
that you knew that as well. Okay, that's the end of round one.
50:15
Let's ask Fee to scan the last round and calculate the scores. And
50:21
those scores are Heetsu Miracas are on seven points and Tingles Rosy Rupee Hunters are
50:28
on six points. Pretty close? All right, pretty close. That's a
50:34
good reference to Fee. I know who that is? Nice. I hope
50:37
they all scan excellent. That's the scanning noise right, Yes. Up next
50:47
is round two, but first we have to play some ads. But don't
50:51
think of them as a waste of time, think of them as a link
50:54
between worlds. See you after this. Round two is called pitch It.
51:05
It's the game where I ask our teams to take on the role of junior
51:07
media executives and pitch ideas to me a senior media executive. I will read
51:13
a prompt about the future of the Zelda franchise, and our teams will have
51:16
two minutes to communicate an imaginative, clever money making or just playing humorous pitch
51:22
for that prompt, and they'll be making those pitches to me. Doug Bowser,
51:27
a name that sounds ridiculous for the president of Nintendo America until you remember
51:31
that the name of the president of Sony is Sackboy, Ratchet and Clank.
51:39
Okay, so here is the first prompt. It will be for both teams,
51:44
but I think I'm going to have a team Tinkle are going to go
51:47
first on this one. Okay, So here is the prompt. Breath of
51:52
the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have been hugely successful for Nintendo in recent
51:57
years. So next we'll look to round out our open world trilogy, because
52:00
everything is a trilogy now. I'd like to hear evolutionary ideas, retro ideas,
52:06
brought back, question mark, a potential title, a potential twist on
52:10
the same story, or just any number of cool shit ideas you'd like to
52:15
be able to do in Project Open Zelda three. Okay, all right,
52:22
So I imagine Emmy's going to take the lead on this one, and you're
52:27
going to be hypewoman dress. It's probably going to be my role in this.
52:30
So whenever you're ready, Emmy, I will start a two minute time.
52:35
All right, So look, here's where we're at. We have done
52:38
two different open world Zelda games. First one big world, beautiful world,
52:45
tons of stuff to do, you know, little austere for some people's taste,
52:50
but that's okay, you know, loads of wonderful systemic interactions, cool
52:57
places to go, people to meet. Yes, we did a second one.
53:01
That one took the same map, mix it up a bunch, put
53:06
two additional layers top layer, bottom layer, and we added even more cool
53:12
stuff to do. And you know, I think there's really only one place
53:17
that we can go from there, okay, and that is to let people
53:23
make their own big, beautiful game map. We are talking about all the
53:30
pieces we've already got, We put them in a big toolbox for people,
53:36
and we have them build with it the way they're building with all of the
53:40
little bits and bobs we gave them. In this new one. We just
53:44
do that with the whole world. And you know, somehow we still connect
53:52
up some good you know, pieces here and there that we made. But
53:58
the fun of it is figuring out out how to make a world that makes
54:01
all these cool characters happy and and allows us to connect all those pieces.
54:08
Okay, people will never stop playing this game. That is a good thing.
54:14
Tome for your thirty seconds. I name Heart of High Rule Parts of
54:19
High Rule. I like it, Yes, beautiful, So we keep the
54:22
same type of naming structure because this is a third installment in this it is
54:27
a three quell. But the heart the High Rule the place I know that
54:31
heart being trying to build a place that maintains the heart of the people living
54:37
in High Rule. People like to build shit and crossing man a lot of
54:42
money. Okay, I mean that's your time. I love the idea.
54:45
It's essentially like taking the Minecraft Crossovers to the next level of this time.
54:51
The map is fully customizable and it is yours. I love that with the
54:54
link of a link not meant to be a pun, just so easy to
54:59
say because it's his name, the link to the Heart of High Rule,
55:02
like being as a naming structure, and then like the land being the heart
55:05
and everything like that. I like it. I will reserve my points judgment
55:09
until I hear the other pitch from the other side of the boardroom from the
55:14
Hetsu Miracas. Whenever you're ready. I don't know who would like to take
55:17
lead on this one. Chase, I I can try. I don't know
55:22
if I've got a great one. But Jason, do you have a strongest
55:24
strongest start? I have more passion about my idea, is what I'm say.
55:30
Yeah, I defer to you. Okay, don't know if it's better,
55:34
but you have more passion about it. Yes, that is absolutely correct.
55:37
Okay, your two minutes start whenever you're ready. Okay. So,
55:40
and he's absolutely right. The thing about Tears of the Kingdom, those really
55:44
great was not only did they expand what you could do in the world,
55:46
but they added more world. They went bottom layer top layer. So what's
55:50
the next step? Space? Okay, I said Super Mario did it.
55:54
They did Super Mario Galaxy one and two. Man, it's time for space.
55:58
We take Link to space. Sits Star Wars. Baby, the Master's
56:01
sword is a lightsaber. Now we take it to space. It's called Yawn
56:06
of the Galaxy. Is what we do. Okay. We just give a
56:10
bunch of fucking kids a game engine. We say, what's the most freedom
56:16
you could ever have in a game? Make your own goddamn game. Yeah,
56:22
here's some code. We love kids in stem It's the future. That
56:27
was my idea. Please expand on that chase. Um, yeah, we
56:32
we've decided, uh, we're gonna teach kids to code because the tech industry
56:37
is definitely not failing right now. And so so you've got all these all
56:45
these planets, like like it's kind of like No Man's Sky, but it's
56:47
it's No Man's skyword sword. You could say, oh, forget what I
56:54
said. I hate if. If you're really really good, you'll land on
57:00
a planet where everything's just like the Breath of the Wild map, except it's
57:06
in Windwaker style. And then if you're really really really good, you find
57:08
one that's N sixty four Acarina of Time style. We keep losing this,
57:15
we get us like Spider Verse, but link Man. Yeah, if you're
57:19
really really bad, we make you play the first game ten seconds there we
57:22
go. Yeah yeah, because I did not have fun with those first games.
57:24
I don't care about your opinion. I like how you looked at me
57:29
like I have. You can have ten most seconds if you want, chase,
57:31
okay, and if you're really good, you find one that's just pun
57:36
because we're Nintendo and we actually did do that once. So okay, I
57:40
love it. I love it. I love the Multivus stuff, maybe being
57:45
influenced by recent Spider Man things. But the I I love that you.
57:52
I mean it's a good call back to the joke of Space. There was
57:53
a great pun title there. I'm kind of tone because, like Hensteon marak
57:59
Is, your idea was sillier and punnier. But there's the more like grounded
58:04
realistic where I think potentially a third game will actually go in the answer from
58:08
Emmy there, so I'm kind of going to chick it out and give you
58:12
four out of five points each for each team, but for different reasons.
58:15
Yea, okay, I will accept it. I means I can't check it
58:20
out of the next one. I've got to own which one was the best.
58:23
One person gets five, one person gets one can do that even for
58:30
me. Okay, okay, okay. Here is your next prompt about the
58:34
future of the Zelda franchise. After the success of the animated Mario Brothers,
58:38
Hollywood has come a knock in an old Dougie bow Wow is ready to answer
58:44
the door. So pitch me ideas for an animated Zelda movie, including who
58:49
could be part of the voice cast, what the story should be, which
58:52
games they should pull from which references to make, and which characters should be
58:58
included. This is a fascinating on This is fascinating because it's illumination. It's
59:02
almost guaranteed that it's going to be illumination again. Yeah, it just came
59:06
out today. Yeah, I wrote this question a week ago, but yeah,
59:08
yeah, absolutely, and so we know it's going to be illumination style.
59:13
I'm a big fan of illumination movies. I've seen a good chunk of
59:15
them, if not all of them. Actually, we'll say if you want
59:19
to for this hypothetical question, if you want to take it in a different
59:22
route, that's that's fine as well if you don't want to, But you
59:24
could get points for just accurately naming the tropes of an Illumination Studios movie.
59:30
I guess I haven't seen enough of those to know what the tropes are.
59:35
Yeah, yeah, stick a minion in it, I reckon. Yeah,
59:39
okay, what if what if Link's going around instead of like looking for weird
59:43
core rock leaves, he's looking for pairs of overalls, and then a minion
59:46
will appear and give him a piece of their poop so he can give it
59:51
to the big minion, and then the big minion will reward him by giving
59:57
him a bigger backpack. Yeah, well, so I don't know when our
1:00:04
time started. Well, we'll say we'll start your time now. What I
1:00:07
do know about Illumination movies is that one I think they're visually beautiful. I
1:00:09
think they have that knocked out of the park. I don't think there's any
1:00:14
denying that too. There's awkward needle drops. They fucking love needle drops at
1:00:19
Illumination. I think it's fifty percent of their budget. But in terms of
1:00:22
voicecast, I do like, for whatever reason, Andy Samberg. I don't
1:00:28
know if they're going to go with like a fully voiced dialogue for link or
1:00:31
if he's just gonna do grunts and they're gonna get meta with it. But
1:00:34
I like Andy Samberg for either choice. Okay, for some reason, um,
1:00:37
I think he would make a very good link. I let's let's go
1:00:40
of Chase's idea. I think the goal is too there's a lot of core
1:00:45
rocks. I think we do it ghibli style where I think Breath of the
1:00:49
Wild and Tears of the Kingdom take a lot of inspiration from specifically Princess Mononoke,
1:00:53
and I think putting a bunch of corocks in there doing big old great
1:00:58
deco tree when lots of nature shots is going to be great. I think
1:01:02
the goal here is silly pigman gannon Yeah. Yeah, the style of like
1:01:10
a like a minion yeah so so like like Nintendo has its own minions now
1:01:15
in their core rocks and yeah they're more adorable, and I go, yeah,
1:01:22
and the poop kids love poop. There's jokes and elimination. You got
1:01:29
you got fifteen seconds. You can you can do worse than just repeating the
1:01:31
word poop over an over. What's a really random song to put in there?
1:01:37
Princess Purple Rain is going to play during the montage when Link pulls out
1:01:42
a swoop. We have blood moons and we play black Hole sun. Yeah.
1:01:45
Okay, there we go, there we go. That's the time.
1:01:47
A good closing statement. I love our elimination movies bad, oh my god,
1:01:52
maybe maybe wow. Well they're certainly good at making money, and I
1:01:55
had some I had some money making ideas there for shore mapping it onto this
1:02:00
structure of an illumination movie. You know, kids like poop. I can't
1:02:02
argue with that chase. It doesn't add a But before I give your score.
1:02:07
I would like to hear the pitch from the other side of the boardroom
1:02:10
from Team Tingle. Sorry, I've just shottened it to that NOE. So
1:02:15
what would you like to see from a Super Mario Brothers No, I'm sorry,
1:02:20
that's what's happened. What would you like to see from a Zelda movie?
1:02:24
Obviously you can veto me, but I feel like since the story is
1:02:29
similar throughout, that is the element that should be remained, should maintain the
1:02:34
same. But since we're doing a full film of it, maybe like a
1:02:38
Hero's Journey style thing with link it is. It is pretty straightforward, it's
1:02:45
pretty direct. But this is the type of thing that I think we could
1:02:49
build a franchise on, and so we need to give the audience the base
1:02:53
level understanding, even if they haven't played the games. It's I thought,
1:02:59
obviously if it is Illumination Studios, where we've got to have the Minion type
1:03:02
guys in here. Also, I'm talking a lot for someone who doesn't know
1:03:07
anything any You have one minute left, Okay, I have an alternate pitch,
1:03:15
not as commercial, but I think it might be really good. A
1:03:21
cartoon saloon movie. They did like Wolf Walkers and Secret of Col's Call of
1:03:28
the Sea straight up adaptation of the wind Waker, buy them in their style.
1:03:32
Okay, that's very very pretty. I don't know if you know what
1:03:36
that looks like. That's like it's very pretty, like kind of extremely flat,
1:03:38
kind of really stylized. Look, yeah, I think that is not
1:03:44
as commercial. So I'm just gonna say, Audre, your idea really good.
1:03:49
I like it. Tom Holland voice, Well, we can do it
1:03:54
in that animation style. An illumination is open to it with that story,
1:03:59
and again you don't have to use illumination. That's going okay, well fuck
1:04:01
illumination. I'm going to do that animation style because that is something that is
1:04:06
iconic with Zelda now is like a beautiful style. Yeah, and I think
1:04:11
it should be a new one. I think actually like it should be its
1:04:14
own legend of Zoalda story, but encompassing all of the the ideas from like
1:04:20
kind of the classic Zalda story, you know. Yeah, yeah, all
1:04:25
right, they locked in see time because I I my brain actually started functioning.
1:04:30
I really like Audra's plot device because I forgot about that. Something that
1:04:33
these movies do a lot is like get very meta with their humor, like
1:04:36
in the Supermarination here, yeah Illumination yea yea, so like news didn't break
1:04:42
Elly, I know, because that really bogged down what I was going to
1:04:45
my creativity as well. But anyways, um, in the Mario movies,
1:04:48
like they make reference to the fact that they're plumbers, and they're very literally
1:04:53
plumbers in the movie. Yeah, So I would think it'd be really fun
1:04:56
and probably very realistic to think that their plotline is going to Link wakes up
1:05:00
and he's like, I know, my name's Link, and there's gonna be
1:05:02
like a poster line of all the previous links and be like, I know,
1:05:04
I'm supposed to live up to this great expectation of what I'm supposed to
1:05:09
be. But then the whole story is like how this new Link is a
1:05:13
dweeb yes, and Princes Zelda is probably like super cool and awesome and he's
1:05:18
just the dweeb and sucks, but he has to live up to the previous
1:05:21
links. And I seeing that that's not my introspective to that story though that
1:05:27
they already sir locked in, no, locked in, but it's allowing to
1:05:30
analyze it and see it in a new light. So I think I am
1:05:32
gonna go for four points for Team too. That's a cop out from you,
1:05:35
because you said you have this. There's a lot of chaos happening right
1:05:42
now. I really I just didn't have any good ideas for this one,
1:05:45
because like really like my real answer, like, hey, what should is
1:05:47
Zella movie be? I like my real answer would probably be no, it
1:05:53
shouldn't. Yeah, yeah, that's fair. That might be the correct end.
1:05:57
That's fair. I just I've seen a lot of trailers for these new
1:06:00
like young teen oriented type of movies, like with the teenage Green Ninja Turtles,
1:06:04
and like my brother is a big fan of like Lego movies and stuff
1:06:08
like that, and it's always like a young teen boy waking up and he's
1:06:11
like, Oh, got to go to school. I don't know why they
1:06:13
always add school into these fucking fictional ass stories. Here go teens, hit
1:06:16
some escapism for you. Character has to go to school. Yeah yeah,
1:06:21
so I could literally see Link go on to school and everyone calls him a
1:06:26
dweeb and other Yeah, and that's why Tom Hollands was suggested. Yeah,
1:06:30
yeah, okay, so I've handed out the points there for that. I've
1:06:34
got like a third one here, but I'm going to have to cut it
1:06:36
for time, But I do sort of just want this as like a little
1:06:40
a couple of minutes discussion discussion things specifically from the Snares capades. Here there's
1:06:44
not really necessary points on the line. But if you could take like one
1:06:48
of the post Snares Zelda titles and make it like backwards compatible and work on
1:06:54
the Snares, is there a title you would like to see that like work
1:06:59
with, So you're talking about redoing it in the style of a SNAs game,
1:07:02
Yeah, yeah, um yeah, you know, I think honestly that
1:07:09
Majora's Mask would in some ways be a cooler game in that style. I
1:07:15
think it would be a game I would I would be able to kind of
1:07:17
like really holistically sort of get better in that style than it is as a
1:07:26
three D game personally, so that that would be that's a good called.
1:07:30
Well. I mean, like somebody literally made like the Philip Cda Zelda's Adventure
1:07:33
for a game Boy recently, wow wow. And I also think there was
1:07:40
a project at one point where somebody was like doing Breath of the Wild but
1:07:44
in the style of the NES game. But I think Nintendo gave him a
1:07:46
cease and assistant shut it down again to do Yeah. Yeah, yeah,
1:07:53
I did hear Nintendo like, actually, yeah, got a cool company mix
1:08:00
wonderful art. Not not a good company in like a business that much money
1:08:06
being anywhere need Yeah, it's unfortunately true. Yeah, it's almost like the
1:08:12
problem is capitalism. Yes, yeah, absolutely generally speaking. Yeah, Breath
1:08:15
of the Wild It's map was built with the style of the nes Zelda's maps.
1:08:21
Yeah, they in map designing and building. Yeah, and the layout
1:08:26
of it they use planners and so and so forth that they did for the
1:08:29
NES games and then translated into three D. So for fun and for gameability,
1:08:33
they did basically what this problempt is. That's very cool. Hey,
1:08:39
yeah, I like the little bits of trivia from both teams that, so
1:08:41
I'm just gonna give one extra point to each team. Throw that on as
1:08:44
little little bonus, like why no, yes, that is the end of
1:08:47
the round. Let's ask Gannon to bloody get over himself use that clever brain
1:08:53
for good by calculating the latest sculles. He's such a naughty little big boy.
1:08:59
Hey, Tingles Rosy Rupee Hunters are on fifteen points and the Hetsu miracas
1:09:04
are also on fifteen points all side. Round three after some smart ads,
1:09:15
which may be for products connected to words said in this very podcast, like
1:09:19
breath and wild, so we'll see you after these mouthwash and toothpaste commercials.
1:09:31
Round three is called IMDb Trivia, which today stands for inspect my decu branches,
1:09:42
clever, thank you. This round will test some tough, lesser known
1:09:46
trivia about the Zelda franchise. Maybe I mean, maybe some of it might
1:09:50
be obvious to Zelda fans, but our players will also be given three choices
1:09:56
of answers to make the game fair. So I have here the I am
1:10:00
dB Trivia board, and on this board as six words. Each word corresponds
1:10:05
to a question and the word provides a hint at what it might be about.
1:10:10
Each correct answer earns a point, but I may throw out some bonus
1:10:12
points for ancillary knowledge if I'm feeling generous, which let me just check in
1:10:16
with myself, yes, yes, I am okay. I will read out
1:10:23
those six words and it will be Hetsu Mirakas choosing from the board first.
1:10:27
So here are the words fan, brooch, namesake, room, gibberish,
1:10:34
and lefty. I can kind of see like the direction some of these could
1:10:39
go in. Yeah, I'm feeling strong about lefty because I feel like I
1:10:43
know a little bit of knowledge about that term. Okay, yeah, let's
1:10:45
go with lefty. Then, okay, you're going with lefty. Here is
1:10:49
the question that corresponds with that word. Throughout most of the Zelda series,
1:10:55
Link is canonically left handed. Yes, but why is he right handed in
1:10:59
Zelda A Twilight Princess. Yeah is it? Oh? Sorry, I know
1:11:04
the answer to this, Yep, the same That's why I chose it.
1:11:06
Yeah, yeah, it's it's because most people are right handed, and it
1:11:12
was meant to be used with the Wii remote, so they wanted to map
1:11:15
it to yes, right handed people. The same thing with the Skyward Sword,
1:11:18
and then when they remade Skyward Sword for the switch, they switched him
1:11:21
back to left handed because you that the game was like fully dependent on motion
1:11:26
controls, but then you could actually use i don't know, fucking regular controls
1:11:29
like a normal person. I decided to make that gay and yeah, yeah,
1:11:32
exactly right. Yeah, so everything what we just said, Yeah,
1:11:35
everything you just said is exactly right. That would have been option A yes
1:11:40
to do with Nintendo Wii controls. Yeah, I didn't know that this is
1:11:43
a multiple choice. We just kind of started shouting things out like freaks and
1:11:45
I apologize. No, you got that one, and Lefty is officially gone
1:11:49
from the board, So team tangle, all right. I would do you
1:11:55
have a feeling on this, Audre? Probably not. Um namesake would be
1:12:04
the only one. Let's do. Let's do let's do that one then,
1:12:08
because I have a feeling about that one too. Going with namesake and by
1:12:14
all means if you if you know it immediately as well, I would be
1:12:18
the options. But who did Sigaroo Miamoto claim was the inspiration for the name
1:12:27
Zelda? Is it a princess Zelda of Bavaria, a nineteenth century princess who
1:12:32
married the captain of her guard b his first girlfriend, whom he would buy
1:12:39
Zelda's for Zelda's being an orchid hybrid flower or Zelda Fitzgerald, wife of author
1:12:45
F Scott Fitzgerald. That one. Yeah, I don't know how I know
1:12:49
this. I'm pretty sure it is that one. And people have asked like,
1:12:54
why did you do that? And he's like, I just like the
1:12:57
name. It's pretty name. Uh, but yeah, I'm pretty sure you're
1:13:00
right that it is Elda Fitzgerald. Oh wow, this is this is the
1:13:04
question I was hoping it was going to be. Oh I think I knew.
1:13:09
Yeah, this this is because yeah, it was Elda Fitzgerald. And
1:13:12
for the exact reason the emmy just said, oh look at back. Yeah,
1:13:16
we y go on the same Yeah. Are the other two things even
1:13:20
remotely true? Matt? No, the first one I thought would be maybe
1:13:26
convincing, and the second one was just me scrambling to come up with ideas.
1:13:30
No, I likes a really good little story. I like that.
1:13:32
I like that idea. Yeah, back on over to Hetsu Miracas. There
1:13:38
are four words left on the board we have Aldra. Can you read them?
1:13:42
Oh wait, Jason, can you read that? I mean I can
1:13:44
also hold them in the middle of those, Yeah, we've got fan room,
1:13:47
brooch and gibberish. You to choose your chase because I chose last time.
1:13:54
Yeah. So, in the spirit, it seems like we've all predicted
1:13:58
what the question was going to be so far. I'm going to try and
1:14:00
keep that going with the word room because I think I know what this might
1:14:03
be about. Okay, going with room a high link. That's just sorry.
1:14:11
Sorry, only that's the Zelda movie turning me apart. Alda. Okay,
1:14:20
here is that question connected to room In a link to the past,
1:14:25
there is a secret room called the Chris Hulahan Room. But who is Chris
1:14:30
Houlahan? Okay? Ye? Should I hear the options ahead? Please?
1:14:34
Okay? Yeah, okay? Is Chris Hulahan a one of the first senior
1:14:40
managers at Nintendo America who sadly passed away in nineteen eighty nine and was honored
1:14:45
in the game be a subscriber to Nintendo Power magazine who won a contest where
1:14:50
the winner would be included in a secret room in the game or see the
1:14:55
man who invented the joystick, It would be the winner of a Nintendo Power
1:15:00
contest. It certainly is. Yeah, yeah, actually I love it.
1:15:06
Funny thing about that, So because I subscribed to Nintendo Power back in the
1:15:11
day. Um they originally, um, only we're able to get this kid
1:15:15
like the name Chris as one of the random players in a soccer game,
1:15:19
and they were like, we're gonna try to do a little better than that,
1:15:21
And this was what they came up with. The room was actually like
1:15:25
a kind of like a deep bug sort of thing where like if the game
1:15:29
didn't know where it was supposed to put link, it would put him in
1:15:31
this room by default. And they just said, Okay, we'll add some
1:15:34
dialogue. We'll tell the folks in in you know, uh localization, to
1:15:39
add some dialogue to make it for this kid, so that we can make
1:15:42
good on the promise that he's going to be in a game. Oh yeah,
1:15:46
I mean yeah ultimately. Yeah. Yeah. If you were a kid
1:15:50
at the time, you're probably like this effing sucks. But having so much
1:15:54
time passed, that's legacy. He's in there now. Yeah, Chris Houlahan
1:15:58
the room. I know who Chris line is now exactly, Chris Houlahan.
1:16:01
Wherever you are. Good job, Yeah, we love you. I hope
1:16:09
you're having a great day. Chris. Yeah, Chris Houlahan patron saint of
1:16:14
our podcast. Yeah, and why not be a patron Chris residuals coming in
1:16:18
there from Nintendo. Oh yeah, Okay, there are three words left on
1:16:24
the board. Let's head on back over to Tingles, Rosy, Rupy Hunters.
1:16:28
So the ones that are left fan, Brooch and gibberish. I bet
1:16:33
you do. If you do, Fan, there's gonna be a Chris Houlahan
1:16:36
question. Which fan got a room? The answers, Yeah, somehow even
1:16:43
the one, even the zolder one was was Chris fool Yes, yeah,
1:16:50
yeah, We're like, well, yeah, kind of do you have any
1:16:56
instincts? No, I don't. I have no idea. I'm kind of
1:17:00
curious about what Broach is honestly in this in the in this case, like
1:17:06
where that's gonna go. But I don't really have an idea of like what
1:17:13
these questions might be based on these womans. Yeah, so let's go for
1:17:19
that one and we'll go with Broach. We'll find out. Yeah, the
1:17:23
mystery of what that word is about. Okay, this question concerns the Ocarina
1:17:28
of Time. Malong's brooch is the head of which Nintendo character? Is it
1:17:34
a Bowser, b Kirby or c really Naughty from Donkey Kong Country. I
1:17:46
don't know. I mean, I think it's either Bowser Kirby, and I
1:17:51
feel like I would have I don't know, because I don't remember that character
1:17:57
in this kind of detail. Is the problem. Yeah, she's the girl
1:18:01
at the stable, but yeah, would you remember who was more popular at
1:18:06
the time, Bowser or Kirby. Well, I would say it's probably it
1:18:12
would probably be Bowser, just because you know, this was like the next
1:18:16
game that you know, a number of the people who worked on Mario sixty
1:18:20
four worked on was Akarina of Time, So there's a little more of a
1:18:26
direct connection there than there would be to Kirby because the Kirby games were kind
1:18:30
of made by like a different studio, sort of off on the side.
1:18:33
So I think I think that that makes the most Let's go for Bowser.
1:18:40
Let's go for Bowser. It is Bowser. Wow, Kurby would make approach.
1:18:45
So I was hoping to that one. I would have thought Kirby.
1:18:47
I was tricked up by like Kirby's head. Kurby is a cuter character,
1:18:53
right, so you know, like but yeah, okay, that's good.
1:18:58
I haven't Yeah, yeah, no, look for that big old beaver,
1:19:03
don't I didn't remember which I didn't remember which one? Really naughty was honest?
1:19:08
Yeah, yeah, he was the biber who jumps around, he hit
1:19:10
his head and he goes like, yeah, I remember, I remember him.
1:19:15
Yeah, oh donkey lovely stuff. Yes, okay, there is one
1:19:20
word left for each team. Yeah, I see miracas. I also don't
1:19:26
know what these could be about. Fan and gibberish. I mean you've been
1:19:30
doing You've been doing a killer job so far, Chase. I'm just gonna
1:19:34
take a stab and gibberish, okay, and we'll see if we help the
1:19:39
knowledge comes through. Yeah. Yeah. In The wind Waker, the high
1:19:44
pitched gibberish sounds made by the gelatinous choo choose is in fact the sped up
1:19:48
sound of what I know this? Do the multiple choice? Okay? A
1:19:57
phone calls between Miyamoto and his mother B two parrots saying it's dangerous to go
1:20:04
alone. No or see. Two elderly men arguing about what. I think
1:20:12
that's important to me. But I think I think it's US. You feel
1:20:15
like it's option. See, I think it's C. I think it's specifically
1:20:17
in Japanese. I think I know this. Okay, I think it's C.
1:20:23
I'm fine with that answer. Yeah, it is, it is.
1:20:25
Yeah. I didn't know this one, So all right, what were they
1:20:30
arguing about. I thought they were arguing, well, no, I was
1:20:32
asking you, okay because they want to help me answer. Oh. I
1:20:36
think they're arguing about the size of someone's head or something like that it's something
1:20:41
really random. I think it's in Japanese. It is in Japanese. Yeah,
1:20:45
wow, Oh, I don't know why. I know that. I
1:20:47
just do and it was great. Did you almost tricked to me? Good
1:20:50
stuff? I did, almost tricky, but not quite yet. It's just
1:20:53
two elderly men arguing like Mario Pate levels of weirdness for that. Yeah.
1:21:00
Right, well, then we've just got one question left, and fan is
1:21:02
the word that is left the team tingle. There is the question linked with
1:21:06
fan, which late comedian had a character modeled after them in Breadth of the
1:21:12
Wild as Nintendo's way of honoring a long time fan a George Carlin, B.
1:21:19
Robin Williams or C. Joan Rivers. I think I know this one.
1:21:25
Okay, pretty sure it's Robin Williams. Okay, you go with Robin
1:21:30
Williams. What does Robin Williams look like in Breath of the Wild for man?
1:21:33
Yeah, I mean you can look it up because it is the correct
1:21:35
answer. It is Robin Williams. Oh my god, we killed this,
1:21:39
yeah Robins. Robin Williams named his daughter Zelda after Yeah. He was a
1:21:45
huge fan of the series. So yeah, I figured it was probably him,
1:21:48
but I didn't. I don't know which character. I think it's just
1:21:54
a side character. I can't. Oh, I didn't write down because I
1:21:57
didn't want to. It does look like more. I'm gonna have to.
1:22:00
Yeah, I'm gonna have to look that up. That's really neat though.
1:22:02
That is cool, cool thing. Yeah, yeah, his name is Dato.
1:22:05
I don't know why. There we go. Wow, what a fun
1:22:09
trivia. I think we almost got all of them right, You got all
1:22:12
of them right everyone. I don't think that's ever happened with round That's absolutely
1:22:16
insane, excellent knowledge. All right, Well, with that, that's the
1:22:19
end of round three. Let's ask Navie to guide us to the latest scores.
1:22:24
Oh, uldro you already wrote that one in your monologue, didn't you.
1:22:27
We should we should have coordinated before. Yeah, I did write that
1:22:30
monologue this morning. When did you write this sort of after that? After
1:22:33
I already knew you put it in? Just I'm just being a deck I
1:22:36
already had this sheer laziness on my part. Really, Okay, those scores
1:22:42
are well, you might be able to tell which way this has gone.
1:22:45
Hetsu Miracas have increased their point total to eighteen points, but so of Team
1:22:50
Tingle also on eighteen point. My god, it's the lightning round, it
1:22:57
is. But before we get to that, right, lightning round, we've
1:23:00
never called it that before. The quick fire around a quick fire around.
1:23:04
Before we get to the quick fire around, let's talk prizes this episode star
1:23:10
Prize. It's the concept of fate. Link and Gannon are fated to do
1:23:15
battle every hundred years, but for gamers or games, it's sort of once
1:23:19
every three years on average. I reckon, yeah, don't have to wait
1:23:23
a hundred for each game. But our winning team will also receive a PSA
1:23:28
ten copy of the Legend of Zelder for the nes and oh look, I've
1:23:32
just got it. Here looks a little bit dusty. Let me just take
1:23:36
it out the box and blow on the cartridge a little there. Oh oh
1:23:44
it's a it's a bit damp. Now just get it, get my jacket
1:23:47
in there, clean that up nicely. Maybe a hair dryer could dry it.
1:23:55
What about what about a pneumatic drill that could fix it? I'm just
1:23:57
thinking of sounds like an ADM post. Now, yeah, I'm sorry,
1:24:00
it's it's completely destroyed. So sorry, well it's it's out of the hands
1:24:05
of the speculative market. That's that's what's most important. Really, Yeah,
1:24:13
I can say it was like some kind of anti capitalist punk art stunt.
1:24:15
Oh yeah, to destroy it. Oh yeah, awesome. Okay, up
1:24:19
next is our crucial quick fire around. But first we must play one final
1:24:24
set of commercials. If they happen to beef for Nintendo products, you always
1:24:29
money, Doug Bowser, and I know people, Doug, remember that,
1:24:32
I know people. Oh. Final quick fire around will test your broader pop
1:24:43
culture knowledge and it's called Actually Zelda is the princess, and it will test
1:24:47
your knowledge of princesses from the girl. But what if she was the girl?
1:24:55
Then was the girl? In this game? I will give our players
1:25:00
clues to a pop culture princess. Those clues will be given in the style
1:25:03
of a herald announcing their arrival at court. Oh and of course there's a
1:25:09
classic gate leaper's twist. You need to give a little trumpet, a little
1:25:14
okay before saying the answer, So as best as you can do that.
1:25:18
If you think this whole performance thing is a bit too much, you can
1:25:20
just say do do, do do, and I will accept that as well.
1:25:26
This is quickfire, so buzz in by yelling out your team name,
1:25:30
Moroccers. Practice that I'd dressed to close your eyes. For some reason,
1:25:34
there's too much stimulus from the rest of the world for me to remember how
1:25:38
to buzz in. Chase, Emmy, do you want to practice buzzing in
1:25:43
things? Moraccas nice? Lovely stuff, lovely stuff? And here is an
1:25:48

1:26:03
Disney ones in the rest of them. I'm gonna suck. That's all right,
1:26:11
that's all right, plenty of pop culture princesses. I will say it
1:26:13
can't go as badly as the pop culture vampires did from the last episode told
1:26:17
me about that. I was not there for that episode. You would think
1:26:20
I thought that I knew more vampires, and I couldn't even recall the vampires
1:26:25
I did know. I think everyone will do bad at here. Okay,
1:26:30

the Rings. So I'm that's all right, Jase, I got this.
1:26:53
I got this. Emmy, we're two on one. Yeah, that's good.

1:27:00

1:27:05
to. Yeah, I think it's gonna be. I think I heard Emmy.

Internet. Okay, we should thanks Emmy. Okay confirmed. Before we get
1:33:29
to the final scores, I'd like to thank our players. You've all accomplished
1:33:32
more in the last ninety minutes than the Zelda games. For the Philip CD
1:33:36
I ever, did I really hate him? Well, they're bad. I
1:33:44
saw the cut scenes for the first time a couple of days ago, and
1:33:45
they're so laughable. Okay, no, really, you saw them for the
1:33:49
first time a couple of days ago. Oh treat, I wish I could
1:33:53
see them for the first time again. It was a trip. It's the
1:33:56
fact that there's like fan made things now that are like better quality. I
1:34:00
don't know, it's just a it's a whole thing, Okay. Chase and
1:34:03
Emmy, of the hosts of the wonderful retrogaming podcast s Escapades. This is
1:34:09
your space. Where can our listeners find you? Anything exciting on the horizon?
1:34:13
Question mark? Oh jeez, where can they find us? I'm not
1:34:15
on Twitter anymore? Um, good choice. Yeah, I'm I'm on Instagram
1:34:20
and Tumblr at sn escapade, so you can find me one of those things.
1:34:25
Um yeah, I'm on masted On, I believe, at Snescapades,
1:34:30
at mstd N dot social. I think that's the one. This is why
1:34:36
masted us and catching On. Yes, accidentally joined a German one. I
1:34:46
don't know what's happening. And uh yeah. Other than that, Um,
1:34:50
we are our release schedule to spend a little bit spody lately. We've had
1:34:55
some stuff going on, trips to make and whatnot, but hopefully we're gonn
1:35:00
get back on track pretty soon. We got one. It's that's going to
1:35:01
be coming out in the next couple of weeks. And uh, yeah,
1:35:05
we talk about old Super Nintendo games. We play them briefly, judge them
1:35:10
harshly, and rank them. We talk about old Nintendo Power magazines on occasion.
1:35:15
That's actually going to be the next episode we record. It's going to
1:35:17
be one of those because we every time we are playing the games for the
1:35:23
Super Nintendo chronologically and every time we get to a new month, we read
1:35:30
that month's Nintendo Power and do an episode about it. So the next one
1:35:33
we're going to record, it's going to be the one for what is It's
1:35:36
November ninety three, So so yeah, that's exciting. Yeah nice. And
1:35:43
other than that, I will probably have some other stuff happening at some point
1:35:46
that trying to get some new projects off the ground. How to how a
1:35:49
false start with one of them with some audio issues, but well we'll see
1:35:53
if we can give that, get another crack at that one and have it
1:35:57
up at some point before the end of the year. And we are actually
1:36:00
one thing that's that's kind of new is that we are introducing a new segment
1:36:05
to the show. Uh first kind of news segment. I think we've ever
1:36:10
really added to it that is going to be kind of game music focused.
1:36:14
So that'll be a little, a little thing that's going to be in in
1:36:16
the episodes going forward. And I think this is is the first time the
1:36:20
first place we've we've like mentioned that publicly, but not Little Sluy. Yeah
1:36:27
yeah, yeah, so uh yeah, but that's that's that's going to be
1:36:30
a fun thing that we're we're excited to to bring in there as well.
1:36:35
Yeah, And our our website is up right now, honest, piranha dot

1:36:55
notes for this. Yeah, sne Capetes one stop shop for for all things
1:36:59
right trow and Nintendo. We actually did one of those Nintendo power that was
1:37:04
so much fun. Yeah, it's just it's just a nice way of seeing
1:37:08
like a snapshot of gaming history. It's fantastic. Yeah, we really enjoyed
1:37:12
having you guys there for that one, for sure. Yes, it was
1:37:15
a lot of fun. It was a lot of fun, and a huge
1:37:17
thank you to Ash and Adam Wood for their continued support at the highest tier
1:37:20
over at patreon dot com Forward Slash Gatesleapers, you are our executive producers,
1:37:26
and thanks to you, this podcast can be the same story each time,
1:37:29
but told in a slightly different way. Okay, let's get to the scores.
1:37:34
This is the closest episode we've had in a long time. Old boy,
1:37:40
this was this was tense. But I can reveal that Tingles rosy RUPI
1:37:46
Hunters finish on a very strong score of twenty two points. Okay, okay,
1:37:55
but today's winners are head Suem Mirakas with twenty four points in the quick
1:38:00
fire around the Good job, guys, good job, good job. You
1:38:05
know slinging that princess knowledge. This my new favorite character for Zelda. Now
1:38:13
I am a mina stand now yeah no, Jase said he was blocked down
1:38:17
then he came in. I think honestly, those two those two points might
1:38:20
have belonged to you, man, So good job, good job. But
1:38:24
can I get an extra point by being a horrible pedant and uh and informing
1:38:30
you that Elsa is actually a queen and not a princess. Yeah, so
1:38:33
you know, well, because only Aaron Delian princess you could have had,
1:38:38
as the answer was an a. But yeah, you know. I love
1:38:41
those kinds of corrections, And because it doesn't affect the narrative of a game,
1:38:44
because there's two points different, I'm gonna say, yeah, you get
1:38:46
an extra one point. Absolutely, yes, yes, yes, So twenty
1:38:50
three is you'll toll that. Okay, we have the gate Leapers. Thank

1:39:14
that one person you know who hasn't put Tears of the Kingdom down in two
1:39:16
months, and you suspect they've started wearing adult diapers for anyone at all.
1:39:20
Really, we'll be back next time when we'll be calling doctor Jones. But
1:39:26
until then, I leave you with this impactful quote from Ocarina of Time.
1:39:30
The flow of time is always cruel, but no one can change it a
1:39:34
thing that does not change with time is a memory of our younger days,
1:39:39
which is also known as childhood trauma. Yeah, thanks, Zelda. Well
1:39:50
there it is, guys. We finally did Zelda's had a while. I
1:39:55
feel like, wait until season three for such a big sort of franchise that
1:39:58
spack thirty years. Yeah. Yeah, and we like, we really wanted
1:40:01
to do one since our Nintendo one and it's such a like you said,
1:40:04
a big franchise. But I've been enjoying it so much. But it was
1:40:08
about the timing and yes, boy was it worth it. Tears of the
1:40:11
Kingdom ever, everyone getting involved. It felt like the right time to do
1:40:15
his elder episode. Yeah, absolutely, It's it's something where it kind of
1:40:19
felt like my older journey where I like I had heard about it a long
1:40:21
time, you know, I knew tangentially that it was great. Everyone says
1:40:26
this is great, blah blah blah. Finally experience it from myself and it
1:40:28
was fantastic. And that's kind of how like this episode felt. Yeah,
1:40:31
we come in. Uh, it's with Chase. An Emmy who read on
1:40:34
Star Trek with Chase was on Chases on Drinkipedia. Yeah, god right,
1:40:42
I think I forgot that that happened. Yep, we have a hundred episode
1:40:47
chases on before. I wasn't going to say drink of Fordia. That's awesome.
1:40:50
So long time friends, yes, Snescapades, Absolu time friends. Yeah.
1:40:55
And they put the podcast to go for to collaborate with on an intend
1:41:00
Endo products. Absolutely absolutely, because they brought that retro knowledge. As further
1:41:04
podcasts you would, yes, and bring that retro knowledge, and they came
1:41:06
in humble. I don't know that much. It was so interesting as someone
1:41:12
who doesn't have any experience with Zelda other than just like cultural osmosis to hear
1:41:17
them be like, I don't really know that much, but here's four games
1:41:24
that that you Audre, I haven't even heard of. Oh yeah, I
1:41:30
think this was just classic gate Leapers for me. I'm going to be honest,
1:41:32
guys, this episode flowed so well. I had such a good time.
1:41:38
I was the research process for you really fun. Yeah, yeah,
1:41:41
because again these are these are the things. And it was similar honestly with
1:41:45
Buffy the previous episode where it's a franchise that I've got a huge amount of
1:41:48
respectful because I know that they've moved the mediums forward like Zelda constantly moves like,
1:41:56
yeah, all the platform as I love, right because Zelda did a
1:41:59
thing. All the adames I love because Zelda did a thing, right.
1:42:01
So a huge amount of respect. And Yeah, the research was just as
1:42:04
breezy as I thought it would be, in that lots of interesting people have
1:42:09
written lots of interesting things about Zelda. Yeah, and so there was a
1:42:12
lot to dive into. And despite saying all of that, yeah, still
1:42:15
the funniest thing was reading all about Tingle and learning Tingle time, Tingle time.
1:42:23
As someone who's not super enamored into the franchise, you really clung on
1:42:27
Tingle, I felt. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, Conceptually he is sticky
1:42:32
as a concession, right, And I also think that Tingle is sticky,
1:42:41
yeah, just as a person. If you were to, if you were
1:42:44
to like pat him on the back, he'd be sticky for a job well
1:42:46
done. That's a sticky Tingle. Okay, Okay, let's let's stop talking
1:42:54
about Zelda there. Thank you one final time to Chase an Emmy of Snarescapades
