The '''Trendy Game Shop''' is a shop located in the south most part of [[Mabe Village]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. Inside [[Link]] could find various items to aid him on his quest. There are two [[Rupee]]s worth 30 of them, a piece of heart, and a shield. But the most important item here is the [[Yoshi Doll]] which is needed for a [[Link's Awakening Trading Sequence|trading sequence]] in the game. By giving this doll to the new couple's son, Link could exchange it for a [[ribbon]]. From there he moved on in the trading sequence as he gave item after item.

==Location==
{{Manual|LA|Trendy Game|Somewhere in Mabe Village is the latest craze in games, the Crane Game. Once you master the timing of this game, you can pick up some good prizes here!}}
The shop is owned by the [[Trendy Game Shop Owner]] and is located in the southeastern part of [[Mabe Village]].<ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= LA|publisher= Nintendo|page= 21}}</ref>
 
==Rules==
The Trendy Game costs 10 [[Rupee]]s to play.<ref>{{Cite|TRENDY GAME! One Play 10 Rs.|Trendy Game Shop Owner|LADX}}</ref><ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= LA|publisher= Nintendo|page= 110}}</ref> The game features a moving conveyor belt, which rotates an assortment of [[:Category:Items in Link's Awakening|Items]], and an overhead [[Crane]] that is controlled by a remote panel that utilizes the A and B-Buttons. The objective of the mini-game is to successfully grab one of the moving items by moving and timing the Crane so it can grab the desired item. The Crane is moved by pressing and holding the A and B-Buttons while standing on the panel's square; B makes the Crane move right while A moves it down. Once the Crane has been moved by both buttons, it will automatically descend and attempt to grab an item.


===How to Win===
The items available include two Rupees worth 30 standard Rupees, a [[Heart]], [[Magic Powder]] and a [[Shield]]. The most important item that can be obtained is the [[Yoshi Doll]], which sits in the middle of the room off of the conveyor belt. This item is necessary for the game's {{Term|LANS|Trading Quest|link}}. By giving this doll to the [[Quadruplets' Mother]], Link can exchange it for the [[Ribbon]], and subsequently continue the trading sequence. Because the trading sequence must be performed up to a certain point in {{LA|-}}, it is necessary to play the Trendy Game at least once.
If Link wishes to obtain one of the items on the conveyor belt, there is a simple strategy that he can use to ensure success. The key to this is that the time taken for the crane to descend and grab is the same as the time that it takes for an item to travel 6 squares on the belt. Firstly, move the crane across until it is above the top-left corner of the belt. When the item that Link desires is on the middle square of the the righthand edge of the belt, he should briefly tap the "down" button. The crane will pick up the item as it passes across the top-left corner of the belt.

==Trivia==
*If Link takes [[Marin]] to the Trendy Game Shop while escorting her, she asks him if she can try it,<ref>{{Cite|Wow! Link , can I try this?! What do you say?|Marin|LADX}}</ref> which Link will pay for. However when she attempts the mini-game, she picks up the Trendy Shop Owner with the Crane instead. The Shop Owner compliments on her expertise before angrily demanding her to leave.<ref>{{Cite|You're good! You're a pro, aren't you? ... ... ... ... Well, beat it! Pros aren't allowed in here! |Trendy Game Shop Owner|LADX}}</ref><ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= LA|publisher= Nintendo|page= 106}}</ref>
*Some early cartridges of the original Gameboy version misspelled it as '''Tren''e''dy''' Game.
