The Secret Behind Link's Hylian Shield

We all have come to know and love The Legend of Zelda series but there is one recurring item that is the same through game after game in the series… Link’s Shield. The way the shield looks is no different from game to game, Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. The shield bares the same size with the classic Triforce make directly in the middle. With the same look to this Hylian shield where does the mystery come into play?...

With the years i have played the series how in the hell did i not see that? lol i should start paying closer attention x)

MeridianHope4833d ago

You didn't see it because it's (mostly) a fabrication.

Link's shield has *NOT* always had the bird on it. In fact, it's been absent from most of the shields throughout the Zelda series.

Ocarina of time shield = most iconic IMO.

@Dova

Yeah, I tend to agree. Still, it hasn't always been there, even in recent games, as this article suggests.

I have not played Zelda in a long time. i think i should but shooters are getting in my way

TheSuperior 4833d ago

lol theres nothing like a good zelda game though. i was very pleased with skyward sword. so many things could have went wrong but didnt.

TheGrimBunny4833d ago

Groovy, I am die hard Zelda fan. Probably the only reason I have the Wii.

I am pretty sure that Nintendo modeled the Crimson Loftwing after the Hylian Shield... but you never know.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9237d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil36d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

Yeah. That’s the first I’ve seen it anywhere near #1.

Mario 64 is great but I wouldn’t put it over Mario World.

Not having any Xenoblade Chronicles games on the list is a crime.

CUnit123123102d ago

Sorry lol. I wrote the article but 5 of us voted for many different games and majority went on the list then we worked on the list. If it were just my personal top favorite we'd seen some xenoblade and star ocean as well as some others. Thanks for checking out it!

RavenWolfx101d ago

Chrono Trigger at 31 makes my heart hurt.

Zeldafan64100d ago

Not having any Xenoblade Chronicles games on the list at all is a crime.
