Up, A, and Start

The following item was removed due to discussion at Talk:keep cool#Up, A, and Start. Nevertheless, even if it's not true, it probably bears some connection to Nintendo, so I figure it should at least be preserved on this talk page. Trey56 23:30, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Email keep cool — Strong Bad advises swimmers who have recently eaten to "press UP, A and START before reentering the pool." In Metroid, The Legend of Zelda, and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, the game's progress can be saved by pausing (pressing "START") on the first controller and simultaneously pressing "UP" and "A" on the second controller.

Pulse Interview

Not notable on the article, but I'll mention it here - in the 2003 Pulse interview, Matt says, in Bubs' voice, "There was this one time when I hooked up my lawnmower to my Nintendo. And after that, I got the high score every time!" That's among my favorite quotes, I think. Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 21:45, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Note: Qermaq has since added the fact to the article because the majority of people asked on IRC agreed that it was notable. Loafing 00:16, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Tingle

Tingle is in various Zelda games, not just Majora's Mask. He also appears in Four Swords Adventures for example. Retromaniac 04:55, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Majora's Mask was his debut, however (unless I'm mistaken). --DorianGray 04:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
He was in Link's Awakening and Ocarina of Time. Retromaniac 04:55, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Not according to Wikipedia. --DorianGray 04:57, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Hmm... could be a good point. Does Tingle float from a balloon in other (pre-October 2005) games? Also, note that one of the choices he gives Homestar is "THAT'S A LOT! A LOT! A LOT! A LOT!", a quote from Majora's Mask. Trey56 04:51, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
In his Super Smash Bros. Melee appearance, he uses a balloon on the Great Bay stage (a stage based on Majora's Mask. =3 ). --DorianGray 04:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I say, let's keep it in the N64 section since the quote is from Majora's Mask. Also, as DorianGray pointed out, that was his debut. Trey56 04:59, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

As a fan of the Zelda series, I can say that Tingle floats on balloons in most of his appearances - which do not include Link's Awakening or OoT as he is not in those games. However, it does include Oracle of Ages, which is pre-2005. And Four Swords. Oh, and Four Swords Adventures. All of those predate Potion-ma-jig. I don't think he is actually seen on a Balloon in Wind Waker, though. --Jay v.2024 (Auld lang syne) 05:57, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Gameboy?

Can we have have an article only about the Gameboy? User talk:Sam the Man Sam the Man
