      The Eagle Statue at the guard checkpoint in Ocarina of Time is like a sundial. The fact that it is aligned with the Sun's trajectory solidifies this too since if it were positioned across, the shadow would morph into the bridge. Even though it would be backwards, the guards would still know what time of day it was depending on the shadow the Eagle casts despite the game not programmed to have the guards retire or alternate shifts. I still found this detail to be interesting yet useless.

    Ooh, I can answer why Link's skin and tunic change color in the cafe! On the GBA, each screen in a game has a specific color palette assigned to it to make sure everything is the right color. So when they assigned a color palette to the cafe, they most likely forgot to make it include colors for Link's alternate tunics, so it can't sample those colors for him in that area. So, it has to default to using other colors in the palette instead, which causes weird color issues for some sprites, like Link here.

      @Leonarth5 4 роки тому +117

      That's really not right. I'll explain why for anybody who cares/wants to learn.
      An easy way to disprove your hypothesis is to enter the room with the charm already applied, by doing this Link will look just fine, however his palette will be incorrect after the charm runs out, as there will be no space for his normal palette..
      The gba has 256 colors for the background and 256 colors for sprites to use at any given time, these 256 colors are separated into 16 color palettes. Palettes can change at any moment, they are not directly tied to the rooms, the issue here is not that they didn't ready the palette (which is not a thing, at least in this case) but that there is too many palettes being used, so there is no space for the new palette for Link. Many games use dynamic palette loading, and minish cap is no different. Some palettes are fixed (like the palettes rupees and common enemies use), but over half of them will be updated based on whatever is loaded, in this game's case.
      Also, if you simply remove NPCs from the room through hacking in such a way that at least one palette is freed up, Link's tunic colors will work correctly, as there will be free palette slots for Link to use.
      If you are wondering, the palette that Link is using when he looks orange is palette 0, which is the one used for red rupees (and many other things), it just defaults to 0 because it can't find a slot to load his new palette to.
      They could very well have made it so Link's regular palette would be updated to the alternate palette after using a charm, but for some reason they just didn't. I assume they just didn't realize they had hit a palette limit in this room, and since Link is still loaded when his tunic changes the game refuses to give up the palette slot he is using.

    • @PixelProfligate
      @PixelProfligate 4 роки тому +19

      @@Leonarth5 Apologies, I was in a rush to explain it since I was on my way to work, so I did a...very bad job explaining it... The GBA has a color limit, and only so many palettes it can display at a time. Each map has a palette, and each sprite has a specific color palette. All these palettes are loaded in when a mee map is loaded in, which is why I said it's on a screen by screen basis. So, when you enter the cafe with Link's default tunic, the game has loaded Link's default palette, and all the other palettes for the map. This, most likely, maxes out the amount of colors/palettes the map can have loaded at a time, so when you go to change your tunic, the game can't load your new palette in and instead references other colors already in the map. But, that's why when you go in with the tunic already on, it works fine. It's because that palette for whatever tunic you're wearing is already loaded in the game's memory.

Likewise, at the end of the game, after Link returns to Hyrule and rides off into the Lost Woods, there is another drawing of the Skull Kid, this time with Link, the four giants (who are Skull Kid's friends again) and the two fairies. It's implies that S.K. drew them both.

Also, since the moon, Tingle, the turtle and the four giants all appeared in the Great Bay stage and all of their trophy descriptions say they originated from Majora's Mask, I correctly assumed that the stage itself was also from Majora's Mask. I thought it was pretty obvious.

    I'm glad you brought attention to that Star Fox asteroid, it's one of my favorite weird video game mysteries no one ever talks about. I like to imagine there are more of these "moons" out there, roaming the galaxy for millennia and devouring worlds like what would have happened to Termina. Majora's Mask is probably some sort of extraterrestrial being or relic as well, since it seems directly related to these moons (same eyes) and the fact that they contain dimensional portals. I'm sure the game designers didn't consider any of this, but it's still fun to think about.

    I really love the idea of Link actually dreaming of his eventual fight with King Dodongo, it definitely makes him more interesting that he had a dream like this and etched it on his tree, probably just thinking it was a cool or scary dream and likely showing it to Saria. One thing I also like in Ocarina of Time though this is likely just my imagination is the fact that Link saves Jabu Jabu after failing to save The Great Deku Tree. In his first dungeon, he tries and fails to stop the parasite from killing The Great Deku Tree, resulting in his death. Once he reaches Zora's Domain though, he deals with a similar situation where a Guardian Deity is at risk from a parasite...only this time he saves them. He was too late to save his own Guardian, but he saved the Zora's. I feel like this is an interesting character arc for him, I could imagine him beating himself up over not saving The Great Deku Tree, so when he goes inside Jabu Jabu to deal with a parasite as well, he likely feared the worse and did his best to save them, this time succeeding. I could see this as being relieving, this time he didn't fail and was just in time to save the day...only to go back to the castle to find Zelda being chased with Ganon in pursuit and then he unknowingly allows Ganon access to the Triforce. The Hero of Time's story is pretty dark, all things considered. His mother dies, he is left in the Lost Woods, destined to leave his life with the Kokori behind, failing to save his guardian and thrust into an adventure he was likely not prepared for though was having nightmares for. He is pretty much manipulated by Ganon into allowing him access to the Triforce and while he does save the day, its in a separate timeline so he is never revered as a hero, and his last remaining true friend leaves him. The last we see of him is in Twilight Princess where the one thing he can actually achieve and be happy for is teaching his descendant, the Hero of Twilight, all his various skills so a part of him could live on. This is also just including the Child Timeline because he is also the only Link that canonically (technically due to the timeline) fails resulting in a third timeline where Ganon wins. The Hero of Winds wins, Hero of Twilight wins, Hero of Legend wins, Hero of Time has the possibility of losing. He either falls in battle, is never remembered for his feats or vanishes from a timeline that needs him most. I think only the Hero of Legend, if that is Link to the Past's Link, can compete with this since he loses his uncle in his first game and has to give up the woman he loves to escape the Wind Fish's dream.

    The drawing is far more likely to be a reference to Aquamentus, the first boss battle of the very first Legend of Zelda!
    It's very vague, but it's clearing a dragon rearing up...with FOUR legs. In addition, if you look closer, the shield that the Hero is using in the drawing has a cross shape on it...Just like the shield from the original game. At this point, Aquamentus was the only dragon in the series with one head, four legs, and a western-dragon bodyshape (that being, large and bulky around the main of the body, rather than long and serpentine. Think Dragonite instead of, say, Dragonair.)
    This is obviously just a drawing Link did when he was young(er), envisioning himself as a hero fighting a dragon...Which would eventually come true, with Volvagia...

      Treats like "the same guy who was responsible for designing sprites reused an asset on a later game he art directed... surely not just a coindence right? It must've crossed his mind that he was reusing the same basic concept of an angry moon!" In all seriousness, I loved that tidbit and no one ever seems to mention it even though the MM moon is such an icon of videogames, but I was expecting some more background rather than two minutes of "very similar moon... so weird! I wonder if he even noticed he was using the same moon"

    Interesting little fact, the whole tunic changing color thing doesn't just effect Link for some reason. In the Minish Cap randomizer, you can choose to have a follower (Certain characters with walking sprites, such as Zelda, Malon, and the postman). When I was doing a rando run a while ago, I happened to enter the cafe with Malon as my follower while I was small, and for some reason, Malon's sprite changed much like Link's does with the charm? Her hair turned blonde and her skin grey and eyes orange. (The followers remain the same size regardless what size Link is, so that's how I saw.) I couldn't find anything in the randomizer notes about it, and had known about the charm glitch a while back. Just thought it was interesting the cafe specifically seems to change other 'Playable' sprites as well in certain circumstances.

    I have always thought the carving at the base of Link's treehouse depicted the final fight with Ganon. From a narrative point of view, it seems more likely that if the protagonist is going to have a prophetic dream, it will involve the final boss on which so much hangs rather than the second boss, who only serves as an obstacle in the much larger story.
