Forums - Nintendo - Undoubtedly the best part of Zelda's 25th Anniversary.

I really like this and think that it could be well translated into a future Zelda game (Similar art style).

Wow, that's 1200 x 6566 pixels full of awesomeness.

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

This is the most awesome Zelda piece of art ever. It is now saved on my computer forever. I wish I could have some sort of wall scroll of it!

Hmmm I can recognise everyone but one, who's the shadow guy on the bottom left? The one opposite of Shadow Link?

I also assume the lady in the cloak with the baby is Link's mother (holding him).

That would be the Fierce Deity, though not necessarily Fierce Deity Link - you can tell from the facepaint.



<p>That's a solid list, Smeags.</p> <p>If I were to offer some corrections, it would be that "Venus" is the Great Fairy (Twilight Princess) and "Skull Kid w/ Majora's Mask" is really Masked Child w/ Majora's Mask (note that the masked children are all made to look like the Happy Mask Salesman, not the Skull Kid).</p> <p>For my part, the one I had most trouble identifying was probably Linebeck (middle of 5th row) - I quite like the suave adventurer design given to him here, but given the discrepancy in style, the guy just doesn't look anything like his original counterpart.</p>

Clearly I need to replay Twilight Princess again, because I didn't recognize her at all. Awaaaaay!



Amazing.



The attention to detail is astounding.  I'm still beyond words...
