The entire Short family shares their favorite memories of Wind Waker.
Tanner and Timmi delve into the lore of Wind Waker, starting with the connections it made with Ocarina of Time. This was a landmark game in the fact that it was explicitly linked to another Zelda game in spite of its artistic makeover and drastically different story concept. This opened the door to a more widespread idea that all the Zelda games could be connected which eventually led to the creation of the timeline. One of the more interesting connections Wind Waker made was in the species found in the game and their guardian deities and how they related to those found in Ocarina.From there, they discussed the possible geographic relationship between the two games. Even though it's typical for a new Zelda game to disregard the geography of Zeldas past, there are still notable similarities that can be drawn between major locations in both games.Finally, they discussed a point of great importance...who is Link's grandpa??Follow us on Insta and subscribe to our YouTube @shorts.on_line and hit us up in the Polls and Q&As!

Tanner and Bella kick off our episodes about Wind Waker, discussing the iconic elements of the game like the overworld and animation style. Given that this game was set on the open ocean, it introduced the idea of an open-world Zelda game with a lighter, more comical style of telling an epic story. They also reminisce with some of their early memories of playing the game and share their love of nostalgic characters and side quests.
