It was just written somewhere, it means nothing.

I always wonder who writes these things and how their credibility is established

Given the timeline split evidently they can make up whatever they want anyway

>Only Link can defeat Ganon
>Zelda defeats Ganon in Wand of Gamelon

The way he gestured to the parchment indicated that it literally just said "Only Link can defeat Ganon" in giant letters

>>3258150
Didn't she just put him in chains? Besides we know that ol Ganon is no match for THE KING

>>3258131
>who writes these things
The fantasy equivalent of a screaming sidewalk bum.

>how their credibility is established
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

To be fair, Ganon has never really been beaten. That's why he keeps coming back.

I wonder if there'll ever be a Zelda game where Ganon is literally killed.

I'm not sure, but I think it is a summary because that is to short to be a prophecy. (A full one)

>I wonder if there'll ever be a Zelda game where Ganon is literally killed.
Hoo boy, do you deserve this.

>>3258454

Ganon has been literally killed a few times. They explain in one of the non-retro games why it is that he keeps coming back.

serious question, dont you have ANY other shitty reaction image to use? are you THIS retarded? might as well use a trip so i can filter you

>>3258697
No. His sole presence on this board is simply posting that gif and then giggling at his "funny joke."

>>3258656
Isn't it kinda explained in OoT?

>>3258720
The filename doesn't even make sense

>>3258697
>serious question, dont you have ANY other shitty reaction image to use?
I actually post with a wide range of reaction images, but I reserve the fatass penguin for underages and youtubers who demonstrate levels of ignorance that could easily have been countered by two minutes of research. Look at it: a dopey, chubby penguin obliviously munching on candy--much the same way that I imagine the youtube babbies to look as they watch their favorite e-celeb or admire their latest idiotic post, stuffing their faces with junk food all the while.

They perpetuate memes built on ignorance; they flood the board with threads demanding that they be spoonfed answers to inanely simple questions; they regurgitate inaccurate or outright false information from their favorite, hipster-tier e-celebs. It wouldn't be so bad if they took a little extra time to lookup information on their own and simply made honest mistakes, but some people leave posts here betraying such levels of apathy that it's clear they don't bother seeking any knowledge outside of what automatically runs off a playlist.

God, she was such a little slut. I think she might have been what gave me my first boner as a kid. Now I see why I like the pixie haircut on a girl.

Just think; there's an entire religion on Koridai built around the climax of Link defeating Gannon, that may or may not include Faces [of Evil], singing birds, and a fat pig deflating like a balloon. Truly a lore-rich series.

>>3259351
holy shit, exactly what trainwreck did I miss by being born in the 90's?

Gee, it sure is boring around here.

The original, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess already exist.

Thanks for the fresh copypasta.

Does that fish symbol mean Link? Is Link actually Jesus Christ?

probably after the scores were

Link 837, Ganon 0

and

Ganon 4323, Everyone Else 0

someone jotted down the obvious conclusion.

In the extended edition's director's commentary they say that the strange glyphs on the scroll Gwonam holds up to point to the prophecy are meaningless. It isn't "written" at all. Gwonam is just a crazy old man with a scroll filled with scribbles. Link can't read so he doesn't know this. The King knows probably bullshit but goes along with it out of sheer apathy.

>>3263885

Huh, really?

>>3263893
yes really. also the extended edition director's commentary is totally a thing and not some nonsense that >>3263885 made up.

HEY YOU get offa my board

>>3259245
Nigger, the penguin featured in the gif you posted went through an ENTIRE game trying to lose weight so his bitchy ex-gf will take him back. He fends off legions of enemies DEVOTED to force-feeding him and he wins her in the end. He's probably done more for one person than you have done for anybody in your entire life. This is literally the dumbest thing you can negatively compare anybody to because he actually works diligently to achieve his goals.

>>3259367
I wanted so badly for THE KING to become a playable character with the fucking wine goblet as his weapon in Hyrule Warriors...

WHERE'S DA PRINCESS?

You know, the animation is actually good in this. It's only fault is that it looks like the studio wanted to do Yellow Submarine 2 but had to work on a Zelda game instead.

>>3264358
Yeah for all the crap they are they did get legitimate praise for the animation

>>3264358
>actually good

I think the word you're looking for is "passable". The perspective is always so skewed that it looks like they're all shapeshifters.

>>3264369
Gotta remember the era. Full-on animation and voice acting like this in 1993 was a big deal and there was quite a lot of it.

>>3264278
The beauty of my choice in that gif is that the youtube babbies can show some diligence by actually doing a little research instead of remaining lazy and ignorant. In that way, they can grow as he did.

>>3264397
Okay, actually good for the era. It looks jilted and awkward now.

Good animation? Try Dragon's Lair.

I'm actually tempted to play the CDi games to see if they're actually bad or just average. I've not really played many Zelda games (Oracle of Ages and Minish Cap) so I don't exactly have the "It's a mockery of the series" mindset.

>>3264456
The Zelda ones actually got praise on release.

>>3264401
I can smell you through the screen.

>>3264651
From whom

>>3264369
>I think the word you're looking for is "passable".

I meant the animation quality, not the art quality. The animation is good and well animated.

It's another thing that everyone looks like they came straight out of the claymation scene in Frank Zappa's Baby Snakes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jn7qDn4pheE).).

>>3264323
What's with the sudden spazzing out in these animations? It's like every character suffers from brief seizures

My esteemed brother, gaze yonder.

>>3264720
From mah boi.

>>3264753
You see, I disagree. I find the art direction to be passable (or at the very least excusable, as the resolution wasn't the greatest). The animation is jilted and awkward, the perspective keeps changing while the background stays the same, for example.

It's not awful, but it's certainly not the greatest either.

>much the same way that I imagine
this is your problem, you reserve a part of your psyche for imagining and building others when you don't even know them, they don't concern you, and they shouldn't effect you

this takes the place of your creative energy, you ability to dream, your ability to actually understand.

everyone who sees your posts knows that you're the penguin, and you just keep stuffing your sad little soft body with your own repugnant thoughts and lack of potential, and you love it

>>3265660
I have a lot of trouble believing it's not all intentionally done that way by someone who used to do acid but doesn't anymore.

It's typical of productions from ex-Soviet countries. They literally flew in Russians who never heard of Nintendo before to do the animation.

>>3264358
It DOES look surprisingly good. It's smooth and there isn't horrible transitions between the frames.

If only the same could be said about the game itself though.

I liked Ultima 7 Serpent Isle for this

>The prophetic writing of Xenka flat out talked about the arrival of the Avatar and the tasks he must undergo in order to save the Serpent Isles as well as Britannia

>But early Xenkan monks thought this wasn't mystical enough so they took the writings and made them all cryptic and needlessly complicated

>>3267910
I really wish Nintendo would embrace this stuff like Sega seems to have embraced Sonic's outside of game canon image.

>>3269645
Other companies are willing to make light of their dumbest moments from the past, but Nintendo somehow only embraces worst memes possible.

>>3269668
It hurts to know there will never be a Faces of Evil HD for the NX

>>3259869
The cartoon is actually pretty funny, if you don't get all autist and butthurt about it.

>>3264358
>You know, the animation is actually good in this
It is good.

The cutscenes were animated by starving russian animators.
Soviet russia had a surprisingly huge animation industry that crumbled after the war.
There's a few other games that had cutscenes done by them.

The hands for example are always really well animated in those crappy CDI zeldas.
You can tell this was done by pros.

>>3259245
I always thought you were using like a popcorn gif where you know that the thread is going to turn into a shitstorm.

But no, it's just this.
