"Hidden Mickeys" are a common occurance at Disney theme parks - Where Mickey Mouse's head is hidden, either literally or in such a way that it can only be view from a certain angle.

One such Hidden Mickey is printed right on the board for Mickey Mousecapade.

Ludwig - Ludwig van Beethoven

The idea of combining the personalities of Square and Disney begins with a jest.

Shinji Hashimoto, producer and Hironobu Sakaguchi, creator of franchise "Final Fantasy" were discussing in what manner Square could machinate a title that would supersede the sales of "Super Mario 64."

Jokingly, they reached the conclusion that only a title with the characters of Disney could match the popularity of Nintendo's mascot; a project that Tetsuya Nomura, future director of saga "Kingdom Hearts," happened to overhear mid-conversation, and committed himself to mediate this into a reality.

In that epoch, the office of Square and Disney in Japan were in the same building, which led Hashimoto, one day by coincidence to run into the executive of Disney inside the elevator, and ran this story by him that had delighted his fellow colleagues.

The rest as they say, is history...

I think he thought he was talking about Volvagia too. From the link:
>Volvagia
>A monster resurrected by Ganondorf from ancient times. He has nine possible flight patterns during his first cycle. To face him without the Goron Tunic, Link risks rolling his slowest cycle, which requires a minimum of 6 hearts and a fairy in a bottle to survive the scorching heat until the end of the battle.

You should indeed have six hearts if you did Fire > Forest.

The confusion of the Zelda timeline didn't happen until Wind Waker.

Zelda 2 is the direct sequel to the first Zelda, Link to the Past was suppose to be the distant past of the first 2 Zelda, Link's Awakening was Link of LttP's coming back from his adventures outside of Hyrule, Ocarina of Time was suppose to be the story presented in the opening crawl of LttP, with Majora's Mask being its sequel, the Oracle games were the adventures Link was having between LttP and Link's Awakening.

It wasn't until Wind Waker's odd use of LttP iconography, the revelation that original Hyrule is lost forever, and the perpetuation of Ganondorf not being Ganon again threw a wrench into everything.

No, it's right. I've done it before with only Fire Arrows in OoT3D. Din's Fire can be skipped until the part where you need it to get the boss key only. And even then, you can get through that by waking up the ReDead by hacking at the wall. Here's a video of someone opening the Shadow Temple in regular OoT with Fire Arrows.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOvx2pQy9A4

>>3844002
This is /vr/, but I disagree. OoT was never the opening crawl of ALttP. The stories are too different. Impa makes it pretty clear the king died before Link went to the future. How did he order the Sages to seal Ganon then? That's just the tip of the iceberg.

>>3844114
You can also jump off the side, clip into the stepping stone, and shoot him in the head with arrows while he's still underground. But few people have done that. I think the point is it's possible someone can meet Volvagia under those conditions on their first playthrough, if they lose the tunic Link Jr gives you.
