@@Beef_StrokinoffI'm pretty sure Farore not getting a home is a reference to the Oracle games. There were supposed to be 3 but the last one got cut & Farore was implemented in both. Capcom developed the Oracle games & Minish Cap.
For those commenting about how one of the three is left without a home: this is likely intentional, as reference to the Triforce Trilogy that got cut down to the Oracle Duology, leaving Farore to be Oracle of Secrets without a game of her own (the Oracle games, like The Minish Cap, were made under license by Capcom). Originally, Din would still oversee the Rod of Seasons, but Nayru would have a paintbrush linked to the day/night cycle and Farore would have the Harp of Ages. Each Sage would be linked to their corresponding trait (the Japanese titles for the Oracle Games are Mystical Seed of Power and Mystical Seed of Wisdom, after all - Farore would have been key to Mystical Seed of Courage).
I get the split gameplay wise. Power's game is about combat (seasons), Wisdom's game is about puzzles (ages), so Courage's game would have to be about exploration, but it's hard to make a zelda game based on exploration a fun and fulfilling experience when all zelda games have a basis in exploration. I see why the third was cut gameplay wise, but it's still sad lore wise.
@@harrisontownsend910 The primary reason for the cut supposedly had to do with the link system!

It was going to be where if you had both games you could link them together and it would unlock the third, but they ran out of time to make it so ended up scrapping the concept.

This glitch is interesting, because I once tried to force Link's color to be blue with gameshark codes. Unfortunarly, it didn't had a code to set Link's color to blue, but it had one to set his pallete like the on in the video
Whats even worse is that the guy who rents out the house is even like "id love to build another house here if i could just get rid of these cats" making it seem like you could do something there to get him to build the third house, but despite his hint theres nothing to be done
The best part is being able to get rid of them, leading to...nothing happening. I genuinely question how this sidequest was developed and when the third house was dropped, considering the decomp revealing that this house has 0 leftovers(including the way it was coded only supporting 2 houses). People say it is an intentional reference to the Oracle trilogy's third game being cancelled, but...I cannot imagine it. It would be a botched reference if anything, because Farore does have a destinct function in the final product and no loose ends like this exist for the third game.
It's a color pallet error, that's all. It seems to recall from the wrong values. There's a lot of similar bugs like this in sonic games that people have made into characters lol
If this were an anime, Link would probably take it upon himself to start a relationship with the third Sage, just so he could have an excuse to let her live in his home...or give it up, do she can, without feeling cornered.
Somehow I knew about the orange tunic BEFORE EVEN KNOWING YOU COULD CHANGE YOUR TUNIC BASED ON THE FOUR SWORD COLORS FROM THE START. HOW DID I NEVER KNEW THIS ?!!?
I never played the minish cap, But I find it Really interesting that that's the origin of the parallel link colors in the 4 swords games, most notably purple link
@@dathansmith85how does that make it incorrect? If it’s a reference it doesn’t matter how much older minish cap is, as long as it came out before Smash Bros Ultimate. Though I do doubt it’s a direct reference, more likely just a color for the sake of having it
Really like your hopes, but no. Game developers think for their current game. It's the community (including me) that likes to connect the dots, but if something is intentional it isn't this specific very few developers think about Easter Eggs, because it's not the game and content itself. And technically glitches aren't in general intentional, maybe if it's a very personal one Sorry not sorry to burst your bubble, It's just a reality check.
I believe when you connect the Oracle games Faroe is in a tree keeping tabs on secrets, so technically she's the only employed Oracle. Din is a dancer and Nayru is a princess? My memory is lacking.
I still love this game til this day.. This is the only legend of Zelda game i completed 100% After having everything i felt so proud of myself.. I wish this game had a remastered treatment for the Nintendo Switch..
My bet is that there was probably some intention to make an orange/yellow 4th sage, but they never implemented it. They likely forgot to change the assets in their house, and so Link transforms into the additional asset rather than the sage charms he actually has.
Never seen this before. I've 100% the game (don't do it, those figurines are awful), but I've never actually *used* the charms. Also, I want a remake of the game really badly. Hopefully they complete the sidequest since it seems incomplete
I’ve once collected all the figurines (shudders) Also, if ya haven’t, look up MrDrBoi. He did a video on why THAT piece of heart is THE worst in the series
Link: Stand down or taste defeat Dark! Dark Link: It is you who will taste defeat! Medium Grey Link: Can't we settle this over a nice hot coffee at the cafe?
Maybe the colour-palette for that area/house specifically has a mistake in it, resulting in his coding for colors to mismatch from what it was intended to be.
They remind me of the drive forms from kingdom hearts 2. The orange is anti form, purple is master form, blue is wisdom form, and red is valor form. Limit and final don't get representation.
In turn, both the oracles and the various regions of Hyrule (Eldin, Faron, and Lanayru) are named after the Three Goddesses that created Hyrule in legend, and formed the Triforce!
this reminds me of the 2 oracle games. there was suppose to be 3rd but they couldnt get the password system to work on a 3rd. its oracle of ages (nayru) and seasons (din). i think this whole only 2 houses is an easter egg pointing to that. so i would love to see them remake the oracle games and release a 3rd without the password system and then remake this game giving farore her home.
I have a drawing of mine of minish cap link that I turned orange into Photoshop in order to use as a lock screen wallpaper I'm glad orange link is canon Minish cap is such a goated game
That's one of the whys I've always said Minish Cap is an incomplete game. There's actually a space in the town that it's full of Minishs and it looks like an empty lot (which it is, clearly). Never understood why it doesn't have a mission to turn said lot into a house. Also you can't complete 100% of the game, because you also can't make all the medallions trades, there will be ALWAYS one missing. I know that because I've finished this game like 20 times at least e.e
With the amount of times I've played Minish Cap, I've loved it a lot, but I was pretty sure that there was a way to give all 3 Oracles a home at some point or another. At least from what I recall seeing or something, but I never knew about that glitch the entire time. 😐
So, i found this out using gameshark codes to change links tunic color, thw orange is just a different palette number (i forget which, its been over a decade, but i wanna day it was either palette zero or FF) Something about that location is making the game display that palette instead of the intended one, but it fixes when you leave, meaning the game has the correct palette to display in memory, just the inital change isnt working correct there
I'm currently trying playing and gave Farore a home first because I had no idea and she was the quest giver but I would have left her, Din and Nayru are way more useful.
If Minish Cap gets a remake hopefully they give Farore a home but keep this glitch because its kinda funny.
People keep saying Farore doesn’t get a home but in actuality any 2 of the oracles can have a home depending on who you choose
@@BR-jw7pmthat’s because, just like the Oracle games, we picked the other two to get homes and forgot about Farore in the inn.
