The Legend Of Zelda is an ancient and complicated one. Not really, since basically, it's the same scenario every time Link goes on a quest. Zelda gets taken or threatened in some way and it's normally Ganon's fault or one of his variations and he's gunning for the Triforce. Or at least he's trying to get the two other triforce parts that Link and Zelda have.

See, we'll explain it to you unknowing primitives who've never played a Zelda game before. Ganon utilizes the triforce piece of power, Zelda the Triforce piece of wisdom, and Link has the Triforce of courage. They're all bound by their connections to the Triforce and are constantly reincarnated to make out... I mean battle for all eternity. They do this sort of Hyrule dance every game and we are the ones who benefit because most of these games are rated as the best of their respective years.

The best thing we can pull out of these games besides the awesome gameplay and story is the memes. Because life has gotten so much better since memes were introduced. They're like a new form media that will one day dominate all of our brains and eyes with nostalgic nonsense we'll laugh at and share. Oh man. That's exactly what I'm doing right now. The infection has taken its hold. Oh well, this life is just about finished anyway.

25 Questing Is Not For Logic

What we all love about Ganon is that he keeps coming back. If he didn't keep coming back Link would have to travel to new lands and fight some cardboard box villain like the skull kid. Yeah, it's easy to toss in some world-ending event that Link has to save everyone from.

But with the iconic enemy Ganon, you get an added thrill to the game.

Just think of all the games including Mario but not Bowser as the enemy. It's borderline blasphemous. These developers need to ease their way into new territory as far as villains go. With the disassociation from the main antagonist, the gameplay may suffer. A central villain is iconic and the gameplay leading to that enemy's defeat is what makes the experience memorable.

24 Zelda Logic

Have any of you ever watched the show One Piece? If you have then you should remember the massive sea monsters that lived in the ocean of the world. These things, called Sea Kings, were the size of small villages. When they jumped out of the water they'd eclipse the sun. The problem in that show for these massive creatures was that most of the people they encountered were basically as strong as gods, and the Sea Kings would get punched in their face so hard they'd no longer be alive.

The point is, in this world of water, wouldn't you rather be above the waves then destined to live underneath them? Even if there are no awesome Sea Kings in Wind Waker, flying is definitely the better choice. So don't hate on the evolution aspect.

23 The Ganondorf Paradox

Look at Ganondorf's stupid face. He looks like the type of dude who would never learn the proper way to surf the internet. No matter who taught him or showed him how to use Google, he'd never really focus and absorb any of the information. Leaving the teacher to be stuck in a situation where a dark lord would be getting angrier and more impatient with every second.

On the internet, Link still defeats the great evil Gerudo King.

Oh, you forgot that Ganon was originally a Gerudo? Forgot that a race of only women that have a single male born every hundred years to be their king? Well, you were just re-informed. That would be the best place to have a bachelor's party. Those Gerudo women are probably thirsty.

22 I Did It For The Lulz

Whatever reasons Link has for doing what he does is sort of irrelevant considering we control him and everything he does. It's not our people we need to save, it's his. But we do the deed anyway and maybe somewhere in the gaming realm Link is all happy and stuff for us allowing him to be the savior he wishes to be.

Unless, of course, you're one of those people who doesn't finish games they start. When Link gets resurrected in Breath Of The Wild, things sort of just fall into place. The game is simple yet incredibly huge. The spirits or whatever tell you that you need to defeat Calamity Ganon and that's about it. It's open world and the game can be played at any pace, so you can imagine Link's baseline confusion.

21 Song Of Stormy Daniels

The Song Of Storms is actually quite the catchy tune. Some of the other melodies learned in the game are sort of weak as far as the world of music may be concerned. But Storms is a classic and may even be a masterpiece.

So it's great to know that a song this wonderous ruined the Windmill Guy's life.

For those of you who skipped earlier games in the series and just jumped onto a Nintendo Switch, there once was a time where Ocarina Of Time, A Link To The Past, And Wind Waker were considered the greatest games of the epoch. No one judges you in public because of your lack of knowledge in such classic video gamery. But behind closed doors. We look at you like the NFL looks at Patriots fans. Front-running bandwagoners.

20 Show Me Your Bombs

You may think this meme implies dirty connotations, but the truth is King Dodongo is only defeated by specific explosions within his mouth cavity. Everyone knows in video games you have to hit the weak spot of bosses. Whether it's the eyes or a weak spot on the ankle or by placing fat bombs in the dude's mouth, success is mapped.

Don't be a dirty savage and live with your mind in the gutter. This meme does not explore grown-up themes, if anything it explores worldly themes created by a game that was rated E for Everyone. Everyone includes babies. So if babies can play this game, there's clearly nothing bad in it.

19 Always Better Than Nickelback

What is the general consensus on the quality of Nickelback's music? Some of us here have never even met a person who doesn't use them as the punchline to a joke or an insult to a friend who's done something childish or weak. Could it be that Nickelback is really the greatest band of all time and that they are so amazing that we have no choice but to socially scrutinize their every moment in existence?

The answer is no. Nickelback is garbage.

Right now you're probably imagining the lead singers stupid face with his dumb haircut and hipster beard patch. You're thinking to yourself... does Nickelback even know how much the world hates them? Then you research them and realize they'll tour to crowds of about fifty as a way to stay relevant in the market. Oh yeah, and they're Canadian.

18 Falcon Love

To analyze and break down this meme fully, one must understand the power of a Falcon Punch. If connected with a Falcon Punch, even at 0% damage, you will be tossed from the arena in a fierce fashion. Captain Falcon doesn't deserve such power since he only drives a car for his video games, but we have accepted his place in the arena simply because he's such a beast.

How could Ganondorf take such a stick to that area of his body and not be slammed off-screen? Well, tell you why... because Ganondorf wants it. He desires power over all things, especially within him. Any chance for conflict is an opportunity for G-Dorf to get some play in the dark areas of his mind and body. Who better than Captain Falcon and his Falcon Punch to get all jobs done. Love has fallen for way less.

17 No Pots Here

It's not that Link walks around destroying pots because he's a jerk or because he has some vendetta against them. It's because of two reasons and two reasons only. Reason one is because there simply is loot to be found in the pots of Hyrule. Whoever decided to create these pots and hide their stuff in them is to blame for them being smashed. Which brings us to reason number two.

All of those pots have holes in the top by which the people who own them place things inside the pots.

So why isn't there an action button for reaching inside pots and taking the stuff out? This falls into the realm of developer betrayal and therefore this prejudice against link smashing pots is unjust. For those of you who feed into this slander, you are fake news.

16 Princess Friend Zoned

There has to be a prince out there somewhere that Zelda has the hots for. Link is probably always dirty. He wears the same clothes for like, a year, and he doesn't even speak. You can't expect the woman you save from the evil villain to want you just because you saved her.

Considering the fact that he saved her only as a bonus to saving the entire world from the dark powers that be. Maybe she could set him up with a few housemaids or whatever. Plus, why would Link want to settle down with one girl? He just saved the world. There's gotta be all sorts of Goron and Zora ladies throwing themselves at him. Link takes a shower and he'll become Hyrule's most eligible bachelor. He's had plenty of practice smashing pots. If you catch my drift-a-mundo.

15 Rated E For Everyone

There was a time when people weren't so sensitive and didn't cry about every little thing that offended them or made them feel bad on their inside hearts. this time was known as the stone-age. Seriously, is it a product of the times that people complain about complainers? Or is everyone too dumb to realize that this has been going on forever?

Ratings and values placed on certain aspects of entertainment have existed as long as entertainment has.

Books have been banned, witches have been burned, and Orca whales have been enslaved. If you get offended by some scary scores in a video game then just look away or go play Animal Crossing. No one on this side of the argument wants there to be regulation in our video games. E for everyone means babies too. Get them while they're young.

14 Got Milk?

A boomerang would have been pretty useful as a grown-up in the same way that a hook shot and bow and arrows would be useful to a child. Now that's not a knock on the use of weapons by a grown-up or child. It's merely an observation of what we deem to be true. The issue is the reasoning for why we couldn't use those weapons in after the time skip.

How do a boomerang and slingshot rot? Can they not be remade into something new? They're only made out of wood this isn't some sort of space-age technological tier we're dealing with. The logic of the milk still being good makes no sense considering the time and circumstances that were able to destroy wood. It's either a testament to the milk or a study in the weakness and decaying ability of the wood from a magical forest.

13 The Downside To Evil Bossery

Ganon is a personal favorite of many. Especially after his battles in Super Smash and his story in Twilight Princess where there is a one on one sword battle with the dark lord. He was propelled to a higher level of popularity because we were given a new look at one of the most iconic villains in all of gaming. Maybe even in all of entertainment.

There is Bowser, of course, but Bowser is sort of a pushover and not really that tough of a guy.

And he never tries to destroy the world. Ganon, on the other hand, is pure evil, up in the realm of villainy with Emperor Palpatine and Sauron. And no less powerful than either. Except they all end up losers.

12 Magic Boots Are Magic

The carrying ability of some video game characters is amazing. Link can carry all sorts of jars and weapons and even these heavy boots, all while still being able to roll around, climb, and fight nimbly in the battle against enemies. While most of us credit ourselves with strength based on the amount of grocery bags we can carry in one trip, Link is over here putting Atlas to shame.

You all know Atlas, right? The God person who Zeus beat up and forced him to hold the Earth on his shoulder. Go read a book. Or Wikipedia. But only after you read this article. Speaking of Atlas, what do Flat-Earthers think when it comes to this legend? Do they think it'd be easier to hold planet Earth if it was flat or if it was a sphere? Our guess is that a flat Earth might be a little easier to manage. But then again, it's all malarkey anyway.

11 Ladies Need A Man Who Communicates

Hey Link, all us dudes who love video games and also love chicks want to tell you something. Same. We all know how it feels. Watching heroes in movies and video games go through a bunch of wild ordeals all for the perfect chance to hook up with some beautiful lady at the end.

Pretty good start, saving a person's life is.

If you happen to be one of those people that wishes some awful event or calamity would befall the Earth so that you could "get the girl" at the end of your triumph... you're an idiot. You're parked in the idiot lot next to the people who pray for a zombie apocalypse. Most of you pillow-people out there get frustrated when you get a paper cut or pull off a scab before it's ready. We don't think you're ready to face what fictional heroes go through. So stick to your fruit loops and tater chips.

10 Boromir Is Link's Dad

The worst thing about all of these Boromir memes is that Boromir was a scumbag. He tried to take the ring from Frodo. Even after the Elf lady told him he shouldn't do it and called him out in his mind. Wouldn't you think that after a psychological event like that you'd tread softly? Boromir, we all know you wanted the ring, and some of us even wished you had gotten it. We wanted it to. But in reality, going invisible isn't even that cool.

What value does it really have? Boromir tells it true here. the Triforce is not an easily acquired item, and if it was, then the games wouldn't be as valuable. Speaking of games in the plural. Has anyone noticed that when the developers decide not to put a numerical value on the game, no one talks about the series going on for too long? All the Final Fantasy games get this grief.

9 Derping Hard

What must be learned from this meme is that the Triforce has power over us all. It even has the power to change the way your face looks. Like for instance, the way this dude in this meme's face looks is sort of how I imagine myself looking all the time. Not that any of us can really control the way we look unless we lose weight or use a special facewash made from vegan yogurt crystals.

But who wants to work hard and take care of themselves?

No one. It's awful. Let me put it to you all straight. If we ran outside 10% the amount that the characters we play as in video games do, we'd all be Olympic athletes. But it's okay to allow our avatars to do the excessing for us. Because after all, they're the ones who keep getting pwned.

8 Well Said, Keanu

It seems like every time a game series gets so expensive the team that creates it runs out of good ideas for a story. Which is why we get games where Princess Peach is the star and we get a Donkey Kong Country 3 where you don't even get to play as Donkey Kong. But Keanu may be on to something here. Would it be an interesting game if Link was the bad guy and Ganon was really just a dude with super bad luck? The answer is maybe.

We would all like to play as Ganon and be the evil guy once in a while, but it would be a tough sell if, at the end of a game like that, some dude in a green tunic came along and crushed you. Actually, maybe that wouldn't be too bad of a game idea.

7 Zelda's Witnesses

Yes. Yes, we do have a moment to talk about The Legend Of Zelda. We also have a moment to invite this guy in for a shower because he looks like he's had a hard day. What does that even mean? Public service announcement: do not let people into your home to shower. It's weird. But let us get back to the meme.

There are some books and comics dedicated to The Legend Of Zelda.

There are even entire orchestras dedicated to the music of the games. It would make total sense that people would walk around from door to door spouting the good word. It would also make sense, somewhere in the vast multidimensional archive of existence, that there would be a Ganondorf religion as well. Sort of like the Satanists. Those people are always a bundle of fun.

6 Aliens...

Now the legend in the Wind Waker goes pretty much something like this. And we are paraphrasing, of course. But that the Goddesses of Hyrule created the Triforce so that they could smash all of the pots they wanted to and have millions of people who dwell in the world below to continually make the pots that they want to smash. After a while, the people probably got salty and waged war on the Goddesses and decided they're done making pots.

The spin zone is the goddesses aren't actually goddesses, they are in fact aliens from another solar system that have come to Hyrule out of boredom to mess with the peoples. This may all just be a theory but in the most recent games, there is some pretty ancient technology that could totally be attributed to aliens.
