Talk:Cameos of The Legend of Zelda

TV and movies
The Shrek 2 and KND facts seem questionable. Should they be deleted?


 * Ignoring the fact that you didn't sign your posts, I agree. That's REALLY stretching it. Dinosaur bob 21:17, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Golden Sun?

 * Oh, wow. I never knew that! I will agree, that does look a bit too much like Link to be a coincidence. I'll add the info. 16:59, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Homestar Runner
Zelda has been referenced numerous times in an online cartoon series known as Homestar Runner. Problem is, since it's not exactly TV, I have no idea where to put it.

Super Mario 3D Land
In 5-2 of Super Mario 3D Land,the second star coin is a parody of The Legend of Zelda Series.If you go whith Fire Mario and go to the rigth instead of up in the zone whit the rotating spiked chain,you will see four torchs.If you lit the four torchs whit fireballs,a door will open whit the same sound in The Legend of Zelda Series and it can be there.What you think?--HeyListen 05:16, 14 September 2012 (EDT)
 * The whole of 5-2 is in the style of a Zelda dungeon, and even includes enemies that also appear in Zelda, so I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet. This page needs work though. I will add this as soon as I get a chance. 07:46, 14 September 2012 (EDT)

Remove "references" from the page?
There are a lot of references and parody to Zelda in a ton of shows and media across television and the internet, but should they really be included here, which is specifically about actual cameos? Perhaps they should have their own page. Some of them are also quite subjective, while others are incredibly vague and have no sources cited. I feel there's a big difference to Link making an appearance in SMRPG or Kirby getting a Link hat and abilities to something like "In the episode "Hill Billy," Dennis the Dirt Gnome's hand looks exactly like a Dexihand when it protrudes from the ground" which sounds incredibly subjective and sounds like it could just be in the mind of the contributor than an intentional reference. The page could do with more evidence in general, too. 17:48, 18 September 2012 (EDT)

I AM ERROR
In Super Paper Mario,Fracktail says:I AM ERROR.PRESS ANY KE TO RESTART.The I AM ERROR is a reference of Zelda II.--Hey!Listen! 08:54, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Very true. Feel free to add it to the article. :) 23:26, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Scribblenauts Unlimited
Should Scribblenauts Unlimited be placed here or given an entire article? LoZ seems to play a major role in it. -- Snorlax Monster  05:00, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

Princess Amethyst
Got a new one. Last saturday on Cartoon Networks DC Nation programming block, during a short about Princess Amethyst in Gemworld, the line "It's dangerous to go alone. Take this." was used. Morgil27 18:40, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

Sonic Comic
Got another one. This time it's from the Sonic the Hedgehog comic book, issue #246. [[Media:Sonic-Zelda_reference.jpg]] Morgil 19:50, 28 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Good catch! Feel free to add it to the article. :) 00:01, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

Adventure Time
Adventure Time, which is usually D&D based, had an episode about fighting monsters in a dungeon with flame princess and needing to get the right key to go back and open the chest, which may have been a reference to Big Chests and Big Keys.

They also had this week's issue of the comic (16, I think), in which they reach the main treasure chest in Ice King's dungeon, and the running commentary spells out the Zelda chest opening theme (the long one, from OoT onward).

Finally, the bosses within the dungeons in the Adventure Time DS game, as well as the bosses in this comic issue, have the standard boss titles introduced with OoT.KrytenKoro 14:53, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Pocket God
In the game Pocket God for the IPhone, IPad, and stuff like that you can buy skin packs to change the appearance of things in the game. One skin pack (the Retro Skin Pack), includes several references to Video Games. One of them is changing the Spear to the "Legend of Ooga Sword". The name obviously references the Legend of Zelda, and the design is very similar to The Master Sword. --Planetbox 22:30, 29 July 2013 (UTC)


 * I found another one! In Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, joining the Companions allows access to a quest at Dustman's Cairn. At one point in the quest another member of the companions will turn into a werewolf, and you can ask him if all Companions are werewolves. He'll tell you that only members of the Inner Circle can turn into werewolves, and then say "It's a secret to everybody". Should I add these to the page? --Planetbox 00:09, 2 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Yep! Go right on ahead and add them under the "References Unlicensed by Nintendo" section. 13:39, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
