The Link model for the superfx is indeed link, the colors when imported match up AND the model itself is called LINK.

honestly as a nintendo fan, this was such a cool event. it makes me wish that companies documented their development history, so we could all study it.

I enjoyed watching this video before going to bed last night. As someone who loves retro pixel art, it was cool seeing a ton of Nintendo sprites I have never seen before.

Yeah, there's a lot of leaked Yoshi's Island sprites never saw before, like an unused placeholder Bullet Bill...

@@IvanFranco120 That's cool, I did not know about the unused placeholder Bullet Bill sprites. Yoshi's Island is one of my favorite games.

I wish they'd really consider giving the Zelda 2 style another try, its combat controls are simple but mechanically deep, and I always wanted to see one more, polished go at it...

Considering what they did to link's awaking i think there's hope. It would be really cool

Perhaps a mix of Zelda 1 overworld map and dungeons mixed with Zeld 2 gameplay elements with the sidescrolling platforming and Dungeons but blended together like how Contra has top down levels and sidescrolling platforming levels something like that maybe

Zelda 2 in BotW engine

That'd just be another BotW game. I was thinking more about well, a remake, remaster, or reimagining of the 2D sidescroller with the quick-reflex-input style combat, choosing whether or not to hit low, middle, or high.@@joaquincastaneda6695

Oh wow, at 1:43, it really is true that Link had pink hair! It still blows my mind, especially considering, within the last however many years (seems like since 2016 to me, at least), there was a whole "boom" of "randomizers", and in getting any for A Link To The Past, one could easily choose blonde for Link's hair, and it worked perfectly.

We were really robbed on getting a Zelda II remake of sorts

originally animal crossing was split into 4 islands that each had a dungeon. the zelda sprites could've been a leftover of that phase.

Slight error I noticed in the video... The 3D FX sword fighter's colors were added by leakers/archivers. Making it less likely they were Zelda related.

Actually no, the source files are not only called link, but the colors defined in the .anm model files match up to the colors in the starfox palette, with the boots being gray, the outfit being green, sword being white, and finally, the shield being blue. The fact its literally called LINK is a giveaway.

As one of those weirdos who really likes Zelda II, I would have loved a SNES remake, Super FX, SatellaView or otherwise.

this was a very deep dive. nice work.

great video, thank you!

3:37 that model on the right is links smash 64 model without the textures, which is also used in the fighting polygon team in 1P mode. Could that mean theres more smash related stuff there?

So where is the part from Link's awakening 2: The quest to save Marin from being trapped as a seagull forever ? 307 days remaining till

about the bs zelda sprites and side scroller link sprites, my theory is that nintendo originally planned a super mario all stars type bundle of remastered zelda 1 and 2 for the super famicom/nes but zelda 2 got scrapped and zelda 1 was put on the satellaview service

I like that theory. Sounds plausible.

I heard that there's even more stuff the leakers haven't dropped. Specifically due to the fact that they wanna lay low. So this leaking may not be over yet.

I know the chances are slim, but i'd kill for the E3 demo of Super Mario Sunshine. The game had such a different vibe back then and i'd love to see how much of that version has been completed

I see the gigaleaks are insane, but the thumbnail surprised me to me thinking: "Wait an sequel of Zelda 2"? 🤔

Not 100% sure what it was. Could have been a Zelda 2 remake or perhaps a new Zelda game. I wish they made it don't you?
