I need to get the Zelda games for the CDI.

Good God.

I always heard these were bad, but... damn.

Jim Bowie · Oct 10, 2004

Impa's hands are freakishly large.

Docpan · Oct 10, 2004

The way they move about is so... Odd.

Trevelyon · Oct 10, 2004

What's up with all the close up shots?

Red Dolphin · Oct 10, 2004

:lol

Pretty funny stuff.

As bad as that was, it makes me wish the new Zelda would incorporate voice acting and more cutscenes. It really wouldn't be that hard to do it right. I wouldn't even mind Link talking. Mario made the transition with Mario 64 and we couldn't imagine him any other way. Why not give Link a voice? I'm interested to hear the guy who provides Link's grunts, screams etc speak.

Boogie9IGN · Oct 10, 2004

Holy crap, this is hilariously bad

Yusaku · Oct 10, 2004

I' amazed there's anyone left on the planed who hasn't seen this yet.

MaddenNFL64 · Oct 10, 2004

I've seen a bit of this on G4, but man... WTF...

RiZ III · Oct 10, 2004

Id like to see some gameplay vids.

nubbe · Oct 10, 2004

That is beyond beyond wow
I can see why Nintendo chose to work with Philips

Again, G4 showed a bit of it on their top 10 show 'Filter', but yeah, i'd like to see more.

I'll record some video clips sometime soon.

It's awful, though. Trust me.

IGN did a series on these back in 2002 .. I dug them up on the site but they are only for insiders.. here is the links for those that can view them

Many more screen shots, but no video it looks like.

IGN Insider - Link : The Faces Of Evil! - The 2nd video from Zombie seems to be from this one.

Zelda : The Wand of Gamelon! - If I was to guess on title alone I would say this game is what is shown in the first video from Zombie.

Zelda's Adventure! - Supposedly the worst out of the three... which really is saying something. I would kill for video of this one as the few screenshots they have show that they ditched the animation and went for live action which had to be even more priceless!

Over the gist of the first two is that they are side scrollers and suck, and the last one is top down like most Zelda/Link games but also sucked.

boredJonathan · Oct 10, 2004

Damnit no edit button.. after looking through those articles there are videos for these.. the setup it just out of whack. You need to actually read the artcile as the media page link is dead. The links in the articles still work.

Classic.

Not quite as funny.. but just so bad that it is funny.

:lol wtf man?

I didn't mean it in an attacking way... just I've seen people edit their posts before, and assumed I couldn't because I am a new member to the forums. Scrow saying I missed it made me look all over again.. at which point I figured.. screw it take a screenshot and post it. Then again.. I'm going on like 4 hours of sleep so maybe I should just stop.

Suikoguy · Oct 10, 2004

Can you get any more antiheroic sounding?

I must admit this is the first time i've seen these videos..
How on earth did nintendo let a license this core to their company be so abused?

Buggy Loop · Oct 10, 2004

:lol :lol :lol

Man, the camera zooms (but the background remains the same), the animation which really is freaking weird and probably is 5 frames per second, the hilarious amateur voice acting, this is comedy gold

SantaC · Oct 10, 2004

these games are pure comedy.

Ranger X · Oct 10, 2004

OMGWTF with the background not moving when character zoom or rotate?
WTF with the movements of the characters in the animation?
WTF with this shitty art anyway?
WTF with the 80's bad ad way to talk?

Glad to see i didn't miss anything on that fucking CDI.

robertsan21 · Oct 10, 2004

OMG this IS comedy at its best!

christ who aproved this projekt?

There's no excuse for multiple instances of Firefox! TABS TABS TABS!

That said, make sure you're logged in (it should say Welcome Red Mercury in the upper right hand corner of the screen) and an edit button should appear next to your name.

See?

radioheadrule83 · Oct 10, 2004

Holy crap! I need to see movies of Zelda's Adventure...

the use of real actors no doubt makes things ten times more hilarious

The King
"Enough! My ship sails in the morning"
[laughs]
"I wonder what's for dinner!"

Drinky Crow · Oct 10, 2004

"How about a kiss...for luck?"

SWEET JESUS

SantaC · Oct 10, 2004

talk to the hand Link!

radioheadrule83 · Oct 10, 2004

my favourite bits

http://www.zombiesupastar.com/goodgodalmighty.wmv

ZELDA: Link goto Gamelon and find my father

LINK (enthusiastically): Great! I can't wait to bomb some dodongos!

---

http://www.astrange.ithinksw.net/sa/zelda-whygodwhy.mov

LINK (big smile, rolling eyes, horrible animation as ever): Gee, it sure is boring around here!

KING: My boy! This peace is what all true warriors strive for

LINK (big smile. shrugging. bad animation): I just wonder what Ganon's upto!

---

http://www.astrange.ithinksw.net/sa/zelda-whygodwhy.mov

GUY ON MAGIC CARPET: It is written, only Link can defeat Ganon

LINK (big smile. super enthusiastically): Great! I'll grab my stuff!

GUY ON MAGIC CARPET: There is no time. Your sword is enough.

LINK goes through several stages of dodgy animation: smile, hand on chest, wink, pointing at overbite, giggling like a pedo...

LINK: How about a kiss? For luck!

Parallax Scroll · Oct 10, 2004

It looks like these were inspired by that cheesy Zelda TV show. The second one even has Link begging Zelda for a kiss!

I'll probably have nightmares because of that.

Father_Brain · Oct 10, 2004

There was also a CD-I Mario game released, Hotel Mario (as well as the unreleased Super Mario's Wacky Worlds.) It featured cutscenes drawn in the same appalling style as the Zeldas. I can't find pics, though.

EDIT: I found some: http://www.quebecgamers.com/impressions/cdi/hotel_mario/index.html

That same site has videos of Zelda's Adventure:

radioheadrule83 · Oct 10, 2004

awful, but not near as funny as the animations...

good find!

Parallax Scroll · Oct 10, 2004

Ah, you guys beat me to it. Quebecgamers seems to be the mother lode for Zelda CD-I videos.

Anyone watch the gameplay vids? The backgrounds in the two side-scrollers actually look pretty nice, but the gameplay looks no better than in many half-assed NES games. I couldn't even imagine sitting through Zelda Adventure, though, with those load times. And the music that cuts out completely every time someone speaks? Bleh.

the end to wand of gamelon

Ranger X · Oct 10, 2004

Do they laugh at those 2 games or they wrongly represent Quebec gamers?
If they don't laugh, please someone kill them.

Evenball · Oct 10, 2004

Good lord, the ending to Gamelon with the king laughing!!!!

scorcho · Oct 10, 2004

No Link, only the King may stroke the royal johnson. OMG!
