Talk:Rupee

OoA and OoS
I remeber distinctly, despite only borrowing the games and not owning them, that in OoA and OoS, for more valuble rupees found in the ground with the shovel, size could denote value, as I dug up a very large rupee that gave me 100 rupees... If someone can confirm this (since I can't go back and check) I will edit the article accordingly--Magnus orion 22:52, 12 March 2008 (EDT)


 * Yeah, I've dug up this Rupee several times (heck, I make it my priority when I need money fast). I checked the article and, you're right, it's not mentioned at all. I would guess it would go under "Huge Rupee", given that it's physicall larger than every other Rupee in the game? --Ando (Talk) 12:06, 13 March 2008 (EDT)


 * Yeah, I'll put it in the huge rupee section saying its worth 100, and edit the values section to make it accurate--Magnus orion 18:25, 13 March 2008 (EDT)

Legend of Zelda Yellow Rupee
Alright, so the article states in the "Yellow Rupee" subdivision that its premire was as the lowest value Rupee in the original The Legend of Zelda. However, the game's sprite for said Rupee is a Rupee that flashes blue and orange, neither of which are yellow. So what change needs to be made here? --Ando (T : C) 20:35, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

I'm going to quote what my manual for LoZ says word for word. note the spelling and color names: Rubies are the money used in this kingdom. They sometimes appear when Link disposes of the enemy. If Link collects enough of them, he can buy treasure from the merchant. Blue rubies are worth five times more than yellow ones. In all Link can own up to 255 yellow rubies, and he may use them in any way he likes. This is the original NES manual. I have no idea what the difference is from the GBA one. What spelled them as 'rupy' as stated on the page?Axiomist 19:34, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

By Game?
I was looking at this page and I'm thinking it would look much more orginized and less confusing if we did it by game instead of by color.

Like this -

-The Legend of Zelda-
 * Yellow Rupee - worth 1 rupee
 * Blue Rupee - worth 5 rupees

-A Link to the Past-
 * Green Rupee - worth 1 rupee
 * Blue Rupee - worth 5 rupees
 * Red Rupee - worth 20 rupees
 * etc.

 * Looks good. Now a really nice addition would be a table showing the various games along one axis, and and image of each rupee type along the other, with all of the relevant values filled in. Quite a big task, but useful for reference? 07:04, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
