Official Majora's Mask Character Discussion Thread

[Vanilla]

There are all sorts of threads going on about Majora's Mask characters, but I think it'd be easier if we just had one discussion thread for the main characters. Here are the three that I think are the most likely:

Skull Kid:

Probably the most likely one to actually happen, he's arguably the creepiest Zelda villian ever.

Deku Link:

Everytime someone mentions Zelda or Majora's Mask, I usually here one of two comments from someone if they're not a very hardcore gamer. Either "Oracle of Time was so awesome." or "I remember being able to like shoot bubbles at stuff." That latter, of course, is referring Majora's Mask while you play as Deku Link. Playing as Deku Link was a lot of fun, it would be cool to be able to do so in Brawl as well.

Kafei:

Kafei is, to date, the only character in the Legend of Zelda series that's ever been playable (with the exception of Melee, obviously) other than Link. Enough said.

What do you all think?

 

[xianfeng]

Kafei or Skull Kid also you forgot odowla, oni link, zora link and goron link they have all been mntioned and it's ocarina of time not oracle of time

1. I just posted the three I thought were the most likely.
2. I was making fun of people who didn't really get into the games all that much.

 

[2woShots]

Odowla, Oni Link, Zora Link, Goron Link, Deku Link, and Kafei all suck ****.

Skull Kid FTW, Ive been anticipating him as the ONLY Zelda addition to the Brawl roster.

 

[DokturSea]

I quote myself from one of the OTHER MM threads:

Skull Kid. The End.

 

[#HBC | marshy]

I agree with 2woShots, we don't need 5 Links when 1 is enough.

Skull Kid looks cool so I say add him in. Also, I have no idea who Kafei is but he looks ******** wearing a pikachu mask.

 

[DokturSea]

That would be the Keaton Mask, thank you very much.

 

[2woShots]

Skull Kid would own so much more, because in the end, he wasn't such a bad guy after all...

 

[Stryks]

Oni Link and skull kid are the only ones I expect in brawl

 

[Resting_Fox]

Oni Link and skull kid are the only ones I expect in brawl

I would post something if this guy hadn't already said it.

Oni-Link and Skull Kid all the way. Even if they're only trophies. Other things from Majora's Mask would make good trophies too, because that was when they started making Zelda very artistic and beautiful, it was like the stepping stone between Ocarina and WW, but frankly MM>WW

 

[Vanilla]

Of the three forms of Link, I think Deku Link is the most realistic simply because the most amount of people can identfy with it. A lot of people haven't played Majora's Mask far enough to get to Goron or Oni. All they have to do is pick up a controller at the beginning and they've got Deku Link under their belt. I would say that Skull Kid and Deku Link are the two most likely.

 

[Link'sShadow]

I always thought oni Link was a madeup character because when I went to the moon I just talk to the kid with the Majora's Mask, and then I beat it with out Oni Link. I'm playing it again to see. I Like Skull Kid and Odowala. They would be cool.

Instead of haveing Zora Link, Goron Link, and Deku Link they could take some other character and give them those moves.

EX. Instead of ....
Goron Link: Darunia
Zora Link: Ruto
Deku Link: ? (maybe Deku Princess or Butler)

 

[Bull37]

well i dont know if its listed. but definitly oni link. i made a model out of him with twizzlers !
i have beaten the game 6 or 7 times over a 5 or 6 year period. i have been focusing on smash and halo lately.

 

[commonyoshi]

That Kafei guy was really cool. I wont spoil it for people who haven't played the game, but his identity is amazing. Cant see him fighting tough. Even though he did help link on a mission.

 

[xianfeng]

Oni Link and skull kid are the only ones I expect in brawl

shouldn't get your hopes up on Oni Link or even Skull Kid I doubt anyone from MM will be in Brawl, it's too old to be important and not old enough to be classic

 

[commonyoshi]

It was unfortunate enough to be the sequel for one of the best games of all time. People judged it too harshly. I liked the story a lot. The characters had more depth too. I consider it to be one of the best games ever, just below OOT by a hairline.

 

[Rash]

Pfft. Not only that, but most judgements come from either the fact that the game only has four temples or the fact that it used the 3-day system.

Both aren't good excuses to dislike the game. Majora's Mask was more about side-quests than dungeons; so instead of the usual 8 dungeons, it got 4 (albeit well-designed) of them. The game had plenty of length without having to contain so many of the temples that players demand so much, and it didn't have to extend it's length with something as pointless as the ocean in Wind Waker.

Plus, the 3-day time limit (that can be easily manipulated, I might add) is an integral part of the game. It's what really sets Majora's Mask away from it's predecessor, the great Ocarina of Time. I'll admit, even I was skeptical back when the game came out. However, after good convincing, I finally gave the game an honest shot, and discovered just how well the time-factor is implemented into the game, and just how much better it makes the game. People who are too soon to judge the game will surely miss out, as MM is one of the greatest Zelda titles, alongside OOT and LttP.

That said, if there was just one character from MM I'd like to see in Brawl, it would be the Majora's Mask-influenced skull kid. He's a very interesting character, and his maniacal nature makes him a great addition to the list of Smash Brothers baddie characters. Not only that, but he'd be a very unique character. Sure, he'd most likey borrow Mewtwo's hover-effect, but otherwise I could see him a worthwhile fighter with his own unique moveset.

 

[Link'sShadow]

I think "Rash" might have said this but the 3 day time limit really game the characters personallity. Instead the "Cukoo Lady" we have Anju who is about to get married, runs an inn, has a mother and grandmother, and someone living in thier toilet (never understood why there was no door to the restroom ).

Anyway I think I may know of a to have the mask Links but without adding another Link but it's unlikly and bit of a cheat.

Happy Mask Man

B: Maybe Majora?
>B: Deku
VB: Darami (Goron)
^B: Mikau (Zora)

He would look like the actual character and not som "linkified" version. in otherword Mikau would keep his SWEET Tatoos.

That's actually a really, really good idea. Unlikely, yes, but still a very good idea.

 

[DokturSea]

Geez. Didn't ANYONE read my post?

Skull Kid. THE END.

 

[Link'sShadow]

Geez. Didn't ANYONE read my post?

Skull Kid. THE END.

Your post was too unoriginal. We know of all the Majora's Mask character Skull Kid is top on the list but lets see who else could be in. My idea prabobly won't be in (because he's like 5 separate characters in one) but it still would be cool if he was in .

I don't understand why they hate it when someone want's to dream. Look we drove off Parrothead because of his idea (and curse you all for that ).

Even character that I hate like Tingle I can do this to him. :ouch:

So whats wrong with fantasy character?

 

[Resting_Fox]

Well I'm all for dreaming, but even dreams must have their limitations.

DokturSea's post was unoriginal, but honestly, he's right. The most popular characters are probably the ones that are going to be in brawl, except for those off-shoot ones that always show up, like Game&Watch, and the Ice Climbers. But notice none of them was a minor character in someone else's game. They had their own.

That said, I think the first post should be editied with mention of Oni-Link. I mean if you can mention Kafei, why not Oni-Link?
Please?

 

[c.falcon 58]

don't you think that there is enough zelda characters

its just too much

 

[c.falcon 58]

don't you think that there is enough zelda characters

its just too much, lets have characters from other games

no more zelda characters i should start a strike

just kidding

 

[commonyoshi]

No, because characters are just characters. There is nothing wrong with a lot of zelda characters. Go ahead. I challenge anyone to come up with reason why it would be bad.

 

[Resting_Fox]

Well, commonyoshi, I'm gonna have to agree with you. Zelda has sort of supplanted Mario recently as Nintendo's biggest thing. Even at E3, they were more eager to show off Twilight Princess than Mario Galaxy. And considering how many Mario characters are already in the game...

Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Bowser, Wario, [Doc]

Some more Zelda faces might just be on the way.

 

[Drik Khaail]

who the crap is oni link? do you mean fierce deity link?

 

[DarkKnight077]

That happt mask man would be good or Tingle?...But Tingle scares me still. =/

 

[Bull37]

same thing, fierce is the mask, oni is the character

 

[McFox]

I posted this in the Skull Kid thread, but I'm reposting it here because it's relevent and awesome:

At the end of Majora's Mask, Majora's Mask leaves the Skull Kid and fights you on its own. First, it's just got these tentacle things coming out of the mask. Then, it sprouts a lanky body and runs around.

Lastly, it gets a full body and some rather long tentacles:

Now, the Skull Kid is still the obvious choice for being a character. However, I think it would be ridiculously awesome if the Skull Kid could whip those tentacles out from his wrists. They wouldn't be out all the time like when you fought the boss, rather, they extend and retract when he attacking with them.

I think that would serve to make the character unique enough to warrant his appearance.

 

[DarkKnight077]

Ummm you don't fight Skull Kid in the end of the game. You fight Majora's Mask and..I think that is..the last form, god he was a *****.

 

[McFox]

Did you even read my post? Obviously not:

At the end of Majora's Mask, Majora's Mask leaves the Skull Kid and fights you on its own.

The rest of my post also discusses this in greater detail, but since "reading" doesn't seem to be your speciality, I pulled out the important part.

 

[DarkKnight077]

Sorry..the picture kind of messed up my eyes..I was seeing double..hehe.

 

[Cosine]

, it's too old to be important and not old enough to be classic

Wow I hate that comment I keep hearing, I mean does when a game was released really matter, I think The Maked link idea should be a character because he repersent the Deku Goron, and Zora Tribes that have been in Zelda since the begging, and a lot of people would want to play as a Goron or Zora

Xianfeng is absolutely right, Majora's Mask is not old enough to be considered a classic or to deserve representation in Brawl, specially when there are 4 more recent Zelda titles that completely outprioritize it.

Twilight Princess has already been represented, and Wind Waker is surely considered worse than Majoras Mask

 

[limitbreak]

I had a dream that deku link was going to be in brawl. Its a sign!

 

[vesperview]

People who consider a game worse because it doesn't keep up with the standards of what they are accustomed to are idiots, just how the Star Fox fans hate Adventures, the Zelda fans hate Wind Waker, truth is Wind Waker, Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass are far more relevant than Majora's Mask ever was.

 

[Mad555]

well, i rather have majora and midna than ww link

 

[Stryks]

Oni Link and skull kid are the only ones I expect in brawl

Wow I can believe I said this,well it WAS over a year ago, I guess I see things in a diferent light...

WHY would MM get rep anyway? the game is old, had rep in melee, and now 2 home console games ahve appeared after it, again should it REALLY need rep?
