"They can't be killed by a Sword, only by lighting the Torches" **proceeds to kill a Boo after lighting one torch** seems legit.
If you light only one torch, you can kill them, but using the powder on both defeats them instantly.
@@petersilie304 wouldn’t be the best way because lighting a torch only uses one magic powder killing them with ti costs two
I LOVE the fact they have effects based from link between worlds effects such as the sword beam, enemy death, boss death, and colors
Man, I love when Link's Awakening has callbacks to Link to the Past. It really drives home that it's the same Link, and that he was actually traumatized by the events in the latter. This really humanizes Link, in my eyes.
VoiceAnon you can actually call these callbacks links to the past
The Artist Inside *slow clapping*
He isn't truamatized that much. I mean, he is known as the Legend in a later game living in Hyrule as an old man kicking tail against even the new iteration of himself.
@@lucielm Of course he's traumatized by it.
LordVulpix he was traumatised but link’s awakening can be seen as him coming to terms with his trauma and starting to move past it
If you name yourself Zelda a remix of the main theme will play.
Without caps? I put it in caps and it did it
As a kid, I always just assumed "the Bucket Mouse" was the name of the mouse in the photo hut. I never knew it wasn't supposed to be there.
Oh, and speaking about Ulrira! Of you talk to him, listen to the noice of his voice and compare it to the voice of Shy Guy in Mario Kart or Mario Party. They are very similar, which is interesting since his wife says he "is a shy guy".
lol! Yeah, I always thought it was the Photographer too! XD
In the German version of the original, when you use magic powder on the buzzblobs, on of their lines reads (I kid you not) "Never without a condom"
Tf
Sasquatch Studios
WHAT THE ACTUAL SHIT
*_WHAT?!_*
Wait what?! Lol
However, they removed these sentences in the DX version. And of course, the remake doesn't have these lines either.
@@exctasyi Though this sentence about juice is just a reference to a german song from that time.
I loved the original... I was a kid in the 90s and this adventure seemed so genuine and pure.
Yo same here 👋
Okay, here's a bit which was exclusive to the German version of the original 1993 game. If you sprinkle magic powder on the electric blobs, you can talk to them (I guess everyone knows that by now). They say some nonsense but in the original German version, they sometimes said "GIB MIR DEINEN SAFT ICH GEB DIR MEINEN" in all caps. This translates as "Give me your juice, I'll give you mine" which was a very common phrase for sex at the time, coined by a pop song. Someone must have snuck that into the translation and it was removed in the DX version along with other regular "naughty" content like the mermaid losing her bikini top (and calling you a pervert if you dive in front of her) and the hippo lady in Animal Village clearly being drawn naked. You could see her boobs for a second before she quickly sits down and wraps herself in her towel. I was amazed how much "adult" humor had made it into the original version, but never returned.
That is interesting! Thank you!
Right? The hippo especially makes little sense with that bit removed. It was only a few pixels but clearly meant to be her boobs. At least the mermaid later says "I looked there before" when it's about her necklace but the bikini top thing was so much wackier.
It wasn't "someone". It was Claude M. Moyse and he was the former Editor in Chief of Club Nintendo magazine and part of Nintendo of Europe's localization department.
There were other sentences too, like "NIE OHNE KONDOM" (never without a condom).
And of course "!STOP THE WAR! GIVE PEACE A CHANCE!!". Oh how I miss Claude Moyse...
Don't forget about the MOYSE easteregg in the german version. In all other Versions of the original game there is a easteregg of totakas song if you type in TOTAK in the file select screen. You will hear now totakas song, except in the german version:
If you type in MOYSE there will be a song of moyse, the german translator who did the same condom line...
Well Claude Moyse really had some balls to do such changes
Will you still do a theory about why Lanaryu was the only dragon that got corrupted by Ganons malice?
Cosmo K-13 or why the only one to get sick in skyward sword.
Cosmo K-13 I think that it was because it was near the spring of wisdom. The spring of wisdom seems to be very important since Zelda had to be 17 (or 18. I can’t remember) and she had a lot of faith in it. I think maybe the spring of wisdom had some sort of special power which is why ganon targeted it.
Also I just remembered. Isn’t wisdom tied with hylia. I mean hylia is incarnated as Zelda right? And Zelda is tied to wisdom which can also be a reason why Ganon targeted it.
Anyway that’s my theory
Wisdom always gets bullied out of the 3 triforce pieces XD
Cosmo K-13
I would like to know that though
Simple because the other two are already corrupt. And hide it. Courage is corrupt and shows you.
A reference to Skyward Sword in a new game...after what Aonuma said, I'm pretty sure SSHD is a thing.
Honestly I really want it. I LOVED SS. Just not those janky motion controls lol Nintendo should change that
Congrats 😃
Hit the nail on the head
Are you a time traveler
A
Links awakening was the very first zelda game I ever played. Sooo much nostalgia. I can't wait to buy it next month.
Amazing video too, I think you're one of the best zelda channels out here. Your videos have such a calm pacing and seem really professional.
A Loftwing, huh?
Before Majora's mask 3D, we found Majora's mask on Link's wall in a Link Between Worlds.
It's certainly possible they could be hinting at something, Aonuma loves doing that (an interview he did a few years back where he said he wants to "make a game where you can be a thief" was a subtle nod to the existence of the Link's Awakening remake due to being able to steal from the shop in the game). I also recall someone at Nintendo saying they'd like to release something Zelda related almost yearly. With Breath of the Wild 2 most likely not coming out until 2021 at the earliest I think for 2020 the most obvious thing would be another remaster or remake of an older title.
Skyward Sword is certainly a major candidate (though I admit to being concerned how they'll make it work on Switch in handheld mode and on Switch Lite models because while using the joycons for the motion controls is obvious it makes me wonder how they could get that to work in handheld mode since Aonuma said the precision sword swinging and such were such an integral part of the game's design they'd have to essentially redo Skyward Sword from the ground up to get it to work with traditional controls), another one would be simply re-releasing the Wii U HD remasters of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess on Switch as a double pack, like the "Zelda Gamecube HD Collection" or something.
@@BloodRedFox2008 Yeah, I thought the Nintendo Gallery EE was alluding to that.
Skyward sword HD: hello there.
And now
We are looking for some BotW 2 Hint in SSHD
I always assumed “Bucket Mouse” was the Photo Mouse or his relative as a kid. Knowing it’s a mistranslation (of something I’d have absolutely no reference to) just makes it even funnier.
Made me lol so hard xD
lol! Yeah, I always thought it was the Photographer too! XD
To be fair, both "mouse" and "mouth" are written the same in Japanese (マウス, lit MAUSU), and we can agree that translating an "s" as an "s" is the most sane thing to do, so it was actually Nintendo of Japan's fault for not giving enough info, not the translator's
Link's Awakening has always been my favorite Zelda. And I found the Bottle Grotto music comparison particularly interesting. Can't believe I never picked up on it. :-)
Same, and same!
I miss the photographer from the original. I’m sad they didn’t bring back his funny pictures.
Same. They could have added Dampe in another area, or thought of some other way to include the dungeon maker without removing the camera man
The Photoshop was added in the 1998 DX version to show off the power of the then new game boy printer. In the original 1993 GB version, there was no shop it was just an empty space with no building.
This is the one area where every edition of Links Awakening is completely different.
Same! That was one of my favorite features of the game. It was so charming and had a lot of heart in it.
The 2nd Bottle Grotto theme also uses the piano and chords from the blood moon cue just before the resurrection sequence in BOTW.
holy
Crap
Calling it now, the next remake will be Skyward Sword.
In a Link Between Worlds, there were 2 references to Majora's Mask. Majora's Mask was the next remake to be made.
In Breath of the Wild, the shrine theme and Hyrule Castle both had themes heavily based off of the music in Link's Awakening. Link's Awakening was the next remake after that.
Now we have a Loftwing statue in Link's Awakening.
Given the amount of references to older Zeldas in BotW Nintendo would have a lot of Remakes on their hands according to your logic. Like 20.
I hope for BotW2 and then Oracle Remakes up next.
Finally an actually submerged Zora settlement in the ocean in HD.
I wonder whether they would keep the joke that the Zora all think that Link is a Mermaid...
I really hope so...
Don't forget the Wind Fish was on the wooden crates in BotW on that island you go to that takes away all your stuff.
Why would they remake a game that didn’t even come out ten years ago and was the second last 3D Zelda game they made.. they are obviously focused on botw 2
@@Jbswe HD port with maybe a new thing... The same case that was with twilight princess. A trilogy would be perfect...
I love the editing on this - the aesthetic you used for your title cards is awesome.
Me: I don't need it
Zeltik: *uploads*
Me: I NEEEEED ITTTTT!!!!
Edit: Fun fact, Link's voice in this game is the same one in Link Between Worlds.
Knight of Flames hmm
And given that it's the same Link in both ALttP and the original Link's awakening (and ALBW is essentially ALttP remade), this makes sense...
the Bucket Mouse character created by wrong translation reminds me of Ermac (MK Series): The Error macro was never meant to be a player or anything like it but the players refused to think of it as a simple error and so netherrealm reacted and created ErMac. Just like the fishing dude from Ocarina of Time here - brilliant! When developers listen to their fans it's just wonderful
Wow, these were good. Didn’t really know about any of them. Well done!
Can you make a video with all the little fun things?
Like: typing ZELDA when set player name, Breaking pots when Marin is around, Digging when Marlin is around, Stealing from the shop, Grabbing the arcade sales man, etc. Just every small little thing that makes this game so well made in every detail.
I thought we were done killing Yoshi in Super Mario Sunshine but nope still being turned into rides and... toys apparently.
_Recently, he seems to be showing up in many games!_
The original version of this game is why I gave all my nephew's & my niece Yoshi plush dolls as my 1st gift to them after they where born. After all, this game tought me that baby's need Yoshi's.
@@yodaflyz I see what you did there 🙆
When you get the hook shot, sometimes when link uses it you can hear the sound when yoshi uses his tongue.
Oh that's how you get the Apples down. Thank you Zeltik.
Ik I didn't know how to
A tiny easter egg is that the music inside the telephone booth sings "Den den den den den den denwa" which means "telephone" in Japanese.
Whoaaaa cool!
Really great video, Zeltik ! ^^ Well, do you want to know something funny about the "bucket mouse" easter egg ? In the french version, it's... Madonna, with a ridiculous accent xD
Man I love the zelda content you make, good shit, keep up the good work!
The one dungeon still gives you an extra key in the room before the boss referencing a bug from the original version where it was possible to get not enough keys to get into all the rooms. I think it's the third dungeon?.
I'm sad that Zeltik didn't call out that the Loftwing had a Cellphone in it's wing.
Thanks so much for making this!
I noticed that the places that you can warp to have the same symbol as the “zonai” do in BOTW
Literally playing Link’s Awakening as I watch this. Great video.
I'm glad you explained about the "Bucket Mouse." That always confused me.
To be fair, both "mouse" and "mouth" are written the same in Japanese (マウス, lit MAUSU), and we can agree that translating an "s" as an "s" is the most sane thing to do, so it was actually Nintendo of Japan's fault for not giving enough info, not the translator's
I really love that they’ve left the bucket mouse mistranslation in
This is probably on of the best games that I have ever played so far on the switch. Feels like they took everything from the original version of the game and really improved it. And I was really surprised to see and find out about all of the super Mario things that they put in the game
2:15
Zeltik: Boos can't be killed with a sword.
Also Zeltik: **Kills a Boo with a sword**
You can only kill a boo with your sword when there is a light on.
@@donitaadams8579 **woosh**
In the French version of the original, when you use that phone, it says "Madonna à l'appaouïelle no darling", so "Madonna here, no darling" with an English accent, and then the message telling that you have called a wrong number.
Guess that was funnier than the Nintendo Gallery thing.
In the original German version, you get a call from someone who wants to order a pizza and 2 tiramisu.
I swear i could hear the "haa!" link makes when swings his sword once you played the dark dungeon music haha
If our name your save file “Zelda” the title theme plays in a mariachi style lol
These are very nice easter eggs/references. 👍🏻🙂
And now I wonder why I never noticed the Bottle Grotto easter egg.
Zeltik is incredible
I cannot even begin to explain to you how desperately I want LttP remade in this same style.
I just got nintendo online so im playing through a link to the past but as soon as im done with that im getting links awakening!
In the French GB version, when you used the phone in the old man’s house, Madonna answered, that was very funny !
Johan LE QUELLEC wait what
Sat playing the original whilst watching this. So many good memories!
Wait...isn't the loftwing statue in here kind of similar to the majora's mask nod in Link between worlds?...
Only 31 seconds late i am impressed with myself😉
Chyna Collins weird flex but ok
im loving the game so far!
As the whole games a *SPOILER ALERT* dream, I think that makes the 'Bucket Mouse' a benevolent manifestation of Links subconscious
What do you know, a remake that's good and not a photorealistic adaptation
Take notes Disney
I think Bucket Mouse should appear in person in a secret room In botw 2
That Bucket Mouse stuff was very interesting!
THANK YOU! I've been confused by the Bucket Mouse thing for over 20 years and I finally have an answer!
Awesome And cool!
Link to the past remake confirmed?
Scott Carpenter we can dream
For which platform???
Weebo switch
The second song from bottle grotto sounds more like another dungeon theme from link to the past and not the Mario ghost house.
Good stuff :)
I've always wondered what was up with the whole 'Bucket Mouse' thing. That makes sense.
Wait so... Wind Waker Switch CONFIRMED!
And Skyward Sword switch!! 🤣
Bro if wind waker for the switch is announced i think ill nut
@@coolbuck7214 you saying you wont?
Why do I imagine if they had an Octorok in there instead of a Blooper, it would have something to do with an evil telephone and the Statue of Liberty?
The kind of enemy in the Dream Shrine looks like a Shy Guy without his mask - probably...
4:58 SPLATOOOOOOON
never would I've ever figured out the Ghost House music... I'll pay more attention to all the musics now, thanks
I loved this game as a kid. This remake has a very nice look:)
The Bucket Mouse is my favorite Zelda character so I'm glad to see they made the cut
I love this game!!!
3:20 Oh yeah, especially when trying to grab Rupees...
Granted, you have little reason to do so... Even less once you realized how hard it is by now.
I'm doing the fourth dungeon right now!
Speaking of the Phone House. There’s a musical Easter egg. The melody is someone singing “den DEN DEN den DEN DEN DEN wa!” Which Denwa = telephone in Japanese!
I’ve also noticed Link actually speaking Japanese with some reactionary voice clips.
“Nn-jaa!” When setting bombs, or “achichichichi!!” (Hotttttthothothot) when falling in lava.
This was my first the legend of Zelda game. I will love it until I die lol.. Im glad they didn’t change the German names because in the trailer they did.🙈 it’s a Little bit pitty that they gave too many hints, this game was never really hard.
Whatever I hope, they make a remake of the oracles games.. love them also.
Regards from hamburg Germany and i Love ur Videos 😍
The Oracle games are among my very favourite Zelda ! I hope the fact Capcom had a big role won't be an issue for a remake.
I just hope if they do, they actually include the 3rd game that was never released! The it was supposed to be a launch game for the Game Boy Advance, but ties with Capcom breaking down ruined that
whats the music from at 3:55? i know its skyward sword theme, but where does this come from
It's too bad they didn't leave the Photography Mouse in the remake. I remember some funny pics because of the Mouse. Like when you jump into the well with Marion in tow, the pic the Mouse takes shows Link's expression as he's used to cushion Marion's landing. Instead, Dampé's Shack took the spot where the Mouse used to be.
The second half of the bottle grotto theme music is actually a Remix of the ice Tempel in Zelda minish cap
▪︎▪︎▪︎The legend of Bucket Mouse▪︎▪︎▪︎
These were awesome; unfortunately the only easter egg I was able to find that I noticed was Zelda's Lullaby in the house by the bay. Though I did find out you can talk to the electric Chu Chu's when you put magic powder on them. lol Vyt Raffael M mentions that already.
However, I suppose the song in the house is the most obvious egg...
Just a correction about the Boos. They can be killed with the sword but you need to light one of the torches first then they become vulnerable as they run away (not really worth killing? Rekilling? them)
7:56 just like Donkey Kong who was supposed to be Monkey Kong ahahagaggah!!
Thank you for actually pointing out new and subtle easter eggs instead of the usual "LOL he looks like Mario" lists.
Fun story about "bucket mouse"! :D
This seriously makes me want to get the game SO much more....
The way zeltik talks is intimidating and dark
I hope Zeltik starts doing Splatoon and Mario content,I love the way they say the names of those series
25 years and I have never known about the phone in old man Ulraras house.
Funny how the Switch version of old man Ulira looks like the mayor in Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town & More Friends of Mineral Town on the GBA.
a fun fact about an obvious cameo/easter egg that a lot of people still don't get is that Wart appears under the name Mamu, which is actually his Japanese name :)
I’m hoping to get this tomorrow
My friends always called it Cornhole Island back in the day, haha.
Do you know the old German localisation of the game? It was wild. Picking up the phone at Ulrira`s house lets you talk to Pizzeria "Da Mario" for a large Numkber 13 or something like that. Enemies sprinkled with powder start talking about condoms and exchanging bobily fluids.
Robaho Tf
@@lepapanouwel4663 I asked my mother what a condom is because of this. Probably what the localisation guy intended.
At 2:40, I can hear the *Light World Dungeon Theme* from A Link to the Past. Anyone hear it too?
I'm more used to Gopongo Swamp being the entrance to Catfish's Maw.
When I got the piranha pant at the Trendy Game, it got stuck in the claw. The man said "Looks like it's wedged in there good. Give me a tick, and I'll get it out for you." And he did. I'll have to try the thing with Marin.
stealing from the shopkeeper was always worth it lol ......
When I was a kid, I searched for Bucket Mouse. These were the days where our hints came from magazines and school yard rumors made you play games for ages looking for something that doesn't exist...and Bucket Mouse was on the phone somewhere, so it made logical sense that he'd have something fancy!
I never found it.
Does all the background music used in the video come from the game? I never heard this version of the ballad of the goddess in the game (starts playing during the loftwing Easteregg segment in the video) - anybody know where to find it?
Link Awakening has so many references.
You know I have somewhere I need to be, Zeltik.
I just love Bucket Mouse
