This was my favorite moment in Link's Awakening both as a child in the 90s and now

I love this game's sense of humor (and other things) so much. I feel like it influenced me.

It's the part where we learn she is the only one on this entire island who dreams of seeing beyond its shores. I think she represents the Wind Fish's desire to wake up - that's why she sings the ballad, and why she feels so trapped on the island when everyone else acts like it's the whole damn world

I mean women are constantly throwing themselves at link but he never notices breaking the fourth wall is probably the only way to get that dumbass to realize a woman wants him (and it still didn't work maybe)

Oh?

fonished this game a few months ago, and i felt this part had such childish sincerity within video games. u rly do go around listening to ppls issues and nodding and then go "obtained friendship". it's like a more honest depiction of what happens when your social link goes up in persona

The girl of your dreams...

Could Link's Awakening be considered a wet dream? (I am so sorry)

The game before that had “ham stink” as an item for getting to a new area.

I love my bird wife

The nerd in me must point out that Marin may not be a real girl, she does exist. If link can enter the dream, Whats to say others couldn’t.

The next two funniest moments, where she lands on you while falling into the well, and uses the crane to pick up the Trendy Man, also involve Marin. 😁

There's an interpretation that the Wind Fish's dream is actually Link's dream

Theres a theory that marin is kinda like a dream projection from links dream, hence why if you attack cuccos marin will say something along the lines like “do it more!!” Like she is connected to link in someway, it would also make more sense why link sees her at the end of one of the endings!

Now I want to readd Ballad of the Windfish as a phone signal somewhere.

Unfortunately, Link never ever score. He's all green except his balls are perma blue.

for me video games is when you have a giant swinging axe suspended from the ceiling and treasure chests hidden behind waterfalls

Better then stabing

Not only is does she not exist, she's the dream of a giant sky whale... A sky whale is dreaming of a girl to seduce a teenage boy from another world with.

getting pussy in your dreams is better than no pussy at all

Seeing this gave me "I miss playing Zelda" poisoning; it's crazy I managed to contrarian myself into not playing any of these games until my 20s

I will do this to my gf

You need her to sing to a walrus.

Okay but have you considered catfish goat?

you can do it irl if you truly love your partner

When he gets the shield in wind waker he is still posed like that while his grandma looks sad and has to like actively put his arms down and stop doing the pose to comfort her. it's very cute

First thing I thought of.

to add to THIS, tingle will copy link doing the pose when you get the tingle tuner (or tingle bottle in the wii u remake)

which ones were those it's been a hot minute since I played

relatedly i recently played a VN called Schrodinger's Call and as much as i love the characters and soundtrack it drives me nuts because it implies very strongly by the end that the whole thing is just the protagonist's dying dream it does not stick the landing the way Link's Awakening does

He is getting that dream pussy maybe

Truly a masterpiece of a game.

links awakening is a honorary quirky indie rpg to me

I love it when the girl doesn’t exist and is named Marin

She's into it

the last time i played i found a special scene with Marin on the westmost cape and i don't think i'd ever seen it before, in either the original or the remake

Link:

And then he didn't.

You got [Grippy]! Seems like it could be trouble, but what the hell!
