The {{Term/Store|Nintendo Gallery||Series, TWW, TWWHD}} is a location in {{TWW}}.


==Features==
==Features and Overview==
The Gallery is located on a tall cylindrical island near the [[Forest Haven]]. Once Link finds a way inside, he'll meet [[Carlov]] who will carve a figurine of any enemy or person you want. All that is required for this is to show him a color [[Pictography|Pictograph]] of the subject to be sculpted. These Pictographs must show enough of the subject for it to be sculpted: usually the whole body, but in certain cases where this isn't possible (as with Carlov), as much of the person as possible within the Pictograph is necessary. Without an acceptable Pictograph, Carlov cannot create the figurine. [[Manny]], who stands near the entrance to the gallery before Link gains entry, can be seen loitering near Carlov's counter or walking around in the gallery.
The Nintendo Gallery is located inside a tall, cylindrical island near the [[Forest Haven]]. Its hatch door can be opened by hitting a [[Switch]] in a tiny alcove on the main island with a [[Seagull]] controlled via [[Hyoi Pear]]. The Gallery is run by [[Carlov]], who will carve a Figurine of nearly every Enemy and Character in the game. After the entrance to the Nintendo Gallery is opened, {{Term|TWWHD|Manny (The Wind Waker)|link}}, who is seen outside of the Gallery before it is opened, will appear next to the main desk, and sometimes inside the rooms looking at the Figurines. To request a Figurine, [[Link]] must show him a color [[Pictograph]] of the subject. Carlov will only accept Pictographs which display a significant amount of the subject's body and which show the subject facing the [[Picto Box]]. After Carlov approves the Pictograph, he will complete the requested Figurine in a day. Link can use the "[[Song of Passing]]" to advance time and speed up this process. Certain characters, such as the [[Fairy Queen]], cannot be Pictographed, so Link can purchase [[Legendary Pictograph]]s of them from [[Lenzo]] on [[Windfall Island]].


The Nintendo Gallery is notorious for being extremely difficult to complete, as most mini-bosses and bosses are one-time-only enemies, meaning that if Link defeats them before getting a Pictograph of it (or worse, takes several Pictographs but none of them are acceptable enough for figurine-making), he is essentially barred from obtaining that figurine for the remainder of the game. However, in spite of popular belief, this quest is possible to complete on the first playthrough. There is no one-time-only figurine that cannot be obtained on the first playthrough, since Carlov accepts pictographs from the boss rematches in [[Ganon's Tower]].
Some Characters and Bosses are encountered only one time, making it possible to leave the Nintendo Gallery [[Permanently Missable Items|incomplete]]. However, it can be completed during a [[Second Quest]], where the [[Deluxe Picto Box]] is available from the beginning and all the Figurines from the previous playthrough are carried over. It is possible to complete the Nintendo Gallery on the first playthrough, as Carlov will accept the Pictograph of the [[Gohma]] rematch in [[Ganon's Castle]]. This is the only Pictograph missed before the Deluxe Picto Box can be obtained.


{{Myth|Nintendo Gallery complete only in the Second Quest}}
In {{TWWHD}}, the Picto Box can hold 12 Pictographs instead of three, plus a golden Carlov icon will appear on a Pictograph that can be used to make a Figurine. Also, Carlov can now make up to 12 Figurines per day, as opposed to only one. As the Deluxe Picto Box is obtained much earlier, it is also possible to take Pictographs of characters and enemies sooner than previously; such as Gohma's, thus eliminating the need to take its Pictograph at Ganon's Castle. Additionally, Pictographs found in a [[Tingle Bottle]] can be saved into the Picto Box, making it possible to obtain Figurines of subjects that were previously missed. The [[Knuckle]] Figurine is also needed to complete the Gallery, unlike the original game.<ref>{{Cite|Supposedly, it used to bother him that this collection was considered complete, even without his figurine.|Figurine|TWWHD}}</ref>


[[Lenzo]], the pictographer on [[Windfall Island]], will give Link pictographs of characters that are impossible to take pictures of (such as [[Jabun]] and [[Great Fairy]]) called [[Pictography#Legendary Pictograph|Legendary Pictographs]], so that it is possible to get their figurines as well. This does not count for characters in which the opportunity to take pictures of has been neglected.
===Rooms===
The Figurines of the Nintendo Gallery are placed in seven themed rooms located in a ring around the center of the gallery. Going clockwise from Carlov's counter, these rooms are:
{{Term List|TWWHD|listType= bullet|link=|
Forest Haven Room,
Dragon Roost Island Room,
Dungeon Room,
Forsaken Fortress Room,
Outset Island Room,
Windfall Island Room,
Ocean Room
}}


The figurines take one day to make, and the process can be sped up using the "[[Song of Passing]]."<ref>{{Cite|I think I should be done with this tomorrow. If you'd like, you can go ahead and take a look at our gallery in the meantime.|Carlov|The Wind Waker}}</ref> The figurines are made out of a special material called '''Rainbow Stone''', an extremely rare type of rock found only around Forest Haven.<ref>{{Cite|How do you like my figurine? Isn't it marvelous? We do use only the highest quality material, after all, so I suppose it couldn't be anything less than lovely. You can make figurines out of many different materials, but I carve mine from rainbow stone—It's a special type of rock whose colors defy description. Rainbow stone is a very precious material, and it can only be found around here!|Carlov|The Wind Waker}}</ref>
Around the door to each room is a wallpaper that reflects the room's theme. For example, the {{Term|TWWHD|Dungeon Room|link}} wallpaper is based on the first room in {{Term|TWWHD|Dragon Roost Cavern|link}}. The same wallpaper design lines the walls inside each room.


===''The Wind Waker HD''===
In each room, a note is pinned on the wall to the left of the door walking in. It gives instructions on how to view figurines.
Completion of the Nintendo Gallery is facilitated in {{TWWHD}}. In the remake, the Picto Box holds 12 pictographs instead of 3, meaning that the gallery can be completed in less trips. Furthermore, a golden Carlov icon will appear on pictographs that are eligible for use in figurine-making. Link no longer has to seek confirmation from Carlov in-person, thus eliminating the risk of bringing in pictographs only to have them rejected. In addition, Carlov can now make 12 figurines per day, as opposed to only one in the original. Finally, players can use the [[Tingle Bottle]] to send pictographs, which receiving players can then add to their own Picto Box and use them to complete their Nintendo Gallery. Thus players who have missed one-time-only pictograph opportunities can still complete the gallery.

This article is about the location in The Wind Waker. For other articles, see Gallery (Disambiguation).

The Nintendo Gallery is a location in The Wind Waker.

Features and Overview

The Nintendo Gallery is located inside a tall, cylindrical island near the Forest Haven. Its hatch door can be opened by hitting a Switch in a tiny alcove on the main island with a Seagull controlled via Hyoi Pear. The Gallery is run by Carlov, who will carve a Figurine of nearly every Enemy and Character in the game. After the entrance to the Nintendo Gallery is opened, Manny, who is seen outside of the Gallery before it is opened, will appear next to the main desk, and sometimes inside the rooms looking at the Figurines. To request a Figurine, Link must show him a color Pictograph of the subject. Carlov will only accept Pictographs which display a significant amount of the subject's body and which show the subject facing the Picto Box. After Carlov approves the Pictograph, he will complete the requested Figurine in a day. Link can use the "Song of Passing" to advance time and speed up this process. Certain characters, such as the Fairy Queen, cannot be Pictographed, so Link can purchase Legendary Pictographs of them from Lenzo on Windfall Island.

Some Characters and Bosses are encountered only one time, making it possible to leave the Nintendo Gallery incomplete. However, it can be completed during a Second Quest, where the Deluxe Picto Box is available from the beginning and all the Figurines from the previous playthrough are carried over. It is possible to complete the Nintendo Gallery on the first playthrough, as Carlov will accept the Pictograph of the Gohma rematch in Ganon's Castle. This is the only Pictograph missed before the Deluxe Picto Box can be obtained.

In The Wind Waker HD, the Picto Box can hold 12 Pictographs instead of three, plus a golden Carlov icon will appear on a Pictograph that can be used to make a Figurine. Also, Carlov can now make up to 12 Figurines per day, as opposed to only one. As the Deluxe Picto Box is obtained much earlier, it is also possible to take Pictographs of characters and enemies sooner than previously; such as Gohma's, thus eliminating the need to take its Pictograph at Ganon's Castle. Additionally, Pictographs found in a Tingle Bottle can be saved into the Picto Box, making it possible to obtain Figurines of subjects that were previously missed. The Knuckle Figurine is also needed to complete the Gallery, unlike the original game.[1]

Rooms

The Figurines of the Nintendo Gallery are placed in seven themed rooms located in a ring around the center of the gallery. Going clockwise from Carlov's counter, these rooms are:

Around the door to each room is a wallpaper that reflects the room's theme. For example, the Dungeon Room wallpaper is based on the first room in Dragon Roost Cavern. The same wallpaper design lines the walls inside each room.

In each room, a note is pinned on the wall to the left of the door walking in. It gives instructions on how to view figurines.

Trivia

  • Carlov sculpts his Figurines out of a uniquely-colored material called "rainbow stone", which is not encountered anywhere else.[2]
  • The Figurines on display in the Nintendo Gallery are seen with full shading, in contrast to the cel-shaded graphics in the rest of The Wind Waker. In The Wind Waker HD, the Figurines are given a shiny surface making them resemble smooth clay models.
  • Several of the available Figurines would be implausible as actual sculptures, as they contain floating or translucent elements. Among these is the Queen of the Fairies Figurine, which gradually changes color.
  • It is impossible to get a Figurine of a Beamos. If Link brings in a successful Pictograph of one, the resulting Figurine will be an Armos.
  • It is possible to get Pictographs of Ganondorf and Princess Zelda during the final battle and have them made into Figurines without the need of a Legendary Pictograph.
  • Carlov states that he only accepts Pictographs that are in full color. However, he will accept a Pictograph of any of the Bosses if taken during the rematches against them in Ganon's Castle, even though the Boss battles are reduced entirely to monochrome in these instances. This is the only way to obtain Gohma's Figurine during the First Quest in The Wind Waker.
  • Several The Legend of Zelda series Easter eggs can be found on and behind Carlov's desk. These include the Bunny Hood, All-Night Mask, Goron Mask, Keaton Mask, one of Tijo's drums, several Bottles of Milk, and a Cucco. Some unobtainable Figurines can also be seen, such as Tetra's Ship, a Submarine, the Salvage Corp.'s boat, a scale model of the windmill and lighthouse on Windfall Island, and both forms of the Nayru statue on Southern Triangle Island.

Nomenclature

In the Japanese version, the Gallery is named ニテン堂 (Nitendō).[3] It may be a pun with 似ている (looking like), the Figurine's noticeable accuracy. Several localizations translate it as the "Minitendo Gallery" to recreate the similarity between the Gallery's name and Nintendo.
