Talk:The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

hello i just wanted 2 start this page off

Which friend was Link searching for?
Wasn't Link searching for his skull kid friend in the first place. After all, he might not have recognized the skull kid with Majora's Mask because he was acting mean. I used to be sure that Link was looking for Navi too but a couple years ago somebody explained Majora's mask to me differently (with Link searching for skull kid instead of Navi) and that kind of made sense too.

I'm pretty sure it was Navi. Sensibly, a missing close companion would cuase Link more worry than a one-time aquanitance. Not too mention, I believe, the backround sound hints at a fairy, ie Navi, is the missing friend.


 * As far as I know, there's nothing canon stating that Link was searching for Navi, but the general consensus in the Zelda Community is that Navi is the only realistic candidate. --Jin 16:11, 31 October 2006 (CST)

I know for sure it was Navi. The skull kid is actually a race, meaning there are many skull kids. By the way did you know it used to be called Legend of Zelda: Delayed quest for Navi?--Eponasowner 14:56, 18 November 2007 (EST)


 * W... what? No it wasn't. It was codenamed Zelda Gaiden, "gaiden" roughly meaning "side-story". Ando 17:00, 16 January 2008 (EST)

It's most likely Navi. During the sequence explaining the events in the beginning of the game, you can here Navi sparkly, jingly sound when it talks about Link looking for his friend. And there Skull Kids and THE Skull Kid. And it's never really been confirmed if the Skull Kids in the Lost Woods were the same Skull Kid or separate ones.--Green 23:08, 30 December 2007 (EST)

Pictures
In addition to filling in the empty header's I've put there, this page needs some bigger and more relevant screenshots/pictures. I've been searching for quite a while but I can't seem to find any decent ones.

History / Ports
I made this new section called "Ports and Remakes" and took the information from "History / Development" and put it there. I'll do this with every other game applicable, as well. If there are any objections, let me know. Ando 12:27, 18 January 2008 (EST)


 * Wow, great idea! This works really well and is a nice, clear and informative layout that can be used on every game article. Good work! --Adam (talk) 13:58, 18 January 2008 (EST)


 * :D Thanks. Ando 17:41, 18 January 2008 (EST)

Pronounciation
How do you actually pronounce Majora? A friend told me it is 'Manjora', it looks like, well, you know, and my parents pronounce it like the country. Oh and is Deku 'Dayku' or 'de-ku'.--L1NK 16:30, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Majora - "Mah-joh-rah". Where the heck does "Manjora" come from? There is no "n". D:
 * Deku - "Deh-koo".
 * Also, your "parents pronounce it like the country"? Is there a country called Majora and I missed it? :O --Ando 21:46, 13 May 2008 (UTC)


 * It may also be spelt 'Mallorca' if that helps. And my friend thhinks because it's Japanese, it's pronounced differently. It's not like it isn't on this planet, Sean!!! Thanks a lot, you reallly helped out. Maybe we should put the pronounciation next to the name?L1nk 19:15, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh, so there's a country called Majorca. Huh. Never knew that. Regarding things being based off of Japanese, well... I speak Japanese, and that's what I based the pronunciations off of. Technically Majora's name is different in Japanese (actually being "Mujura" - "moo-joo-rah"), but going off of Japanese pronunciations Majora would be what I said. Still not sure where the "n" comes from if he's trying to base it off of Japanese. And if he REALLY wanted to get technical the "r" wouldn't really sound like an English "r" at all. BUT whatever. As for adding pronunciations... it could work. We might want to do it in IPA pronunciation, though, I don't know. I'll have to talk with the rest of the staff about what we should do regarding that. --Ando 19:25, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
