9. Link the Player: Originally conceived as a response to the call for "mature" games. Thankfully, it was cancelled.

Nuff said about that...

"There are some who call me... Link?"

Wow .... he looks good in purple.

Masamune · 01-01-2005, 10:06 AM

8. Stickda

OcarinaMan · 01-01-2005, 11:18 AM

7. LoZ Xtreme Beach Volleyball.

Reason: Tingle does not look good in a man-thong >_<

**Booyakasha** · 01-02-2005, 12:11 AM

Oh, come on, TML--if Link were really in full-on player mode, he'd be wearing a leopard-print fedora or a fez or something, not the manky old Hylian wind-sock.

War-Prince 9 2.0 · 01-07-2005, 11:51 PM

6:Zelda 1/2

After falling in a cursed spring of drowned ninja, a hylian princes turns into a man known as Sheik when struck with cold water.

Together with the warrior who fell in the spring of drowned child, they must fight an evil wizard cursed in the spring of drowned pig.

Super N · 01-08-2005, 01:41 AM

5:Zelda Tennis

Let's not even go into how wrong it is, shall we?

OcarinaMan · 01-15-2005, 03:21 PM

Zelda X-2

Nabooru, Zelda and Malon decide to go save Link in ridiculously skimpy clothing.

^^ That would be Zelda V-2.

Super Gorman Bros.

In retrospect, it did seem silly to clone a Mario game with Luigi clones.

OcarinaMan · 01-16-2005, 02:48 AM

^ I know, but I wasn't sure if people would catch the reference.

2. Majora's Jock Strap

Thank your lucky stars that this was cancelled...

[sage] · 01-17-2005, 10:09 PM

1. Grand Theft Epona.

OcarinaMan · 01-17-2005, 11:17 PM

Top 10 rejected NPCs

10. Shady the drug dealer: Found in the alleys of Hyrule at night. Gives LSD that renders Link invincible for 1 minute real-time. Bottle required. 400 Rupees per bottle.

Gumby, dammit · 01-22-2005, 07:33 PM

9. Limpa, Impa's cousin who has a bad leg, and begs Link to massage it constantly...

*Grabs gun and shoots self*
Bad idea... Bad images...

thunt · 01-22-2005, 10:07 PM

MInky the miniutare Goron. He'd climb on Link's shoulder and would occasionally help or beat Navi up, and was rejected because Nintendo felt the fairy should give you no break. He'd also say obscene phrases.

**L007 is Undecided** · 01-23-2005, 10:14 AM

7. Link's OTHER Shadow self. Other-Shadow Link is more intrested in trying on different tunics with Zelda instead of fighting.

"Oh, I look so good in purple!"

Masamune · 01-23-2005, 10:23 AM

6. Faati - The Wind Mage

Originally Vaati was imagined as a large fat man with a flatulence problem, hence the 'wind mage' part. It was later decided that the boss fights were too challenging and replaced with the similar, but less intimidating 'Vaati'.

OcarinaMan · 01-23-2005, 11:23 AM

5. Rod Serling

Known by little, the original title of OoT was "Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Zone" in which Link traverses through time, not because of his mystical ocarina, but because he is caught in the depths of the Twilight Zone, his only ally being Rod Serling's narration. However, Miyamoto was afraid of copyright negotiations, and changed the cause of Link's travel to a, um... "magical ocarina." If you ever see an OoT screenshot with Rod Serling's visage upon it, you can be sure of one thing. You have entered... The Twilight Zone.

LinkManDX · 01-23-2005, 09:45 PM

Do do do do...

4. Moe Howard

Nintendo was running out of ideas for bosses, so they brought a classic TV actor.
