Cameos

The Legend of Zelda series has had an impact on popular culture. Thus cameos of Zelda characters and items are abundant in television shows, movies, and other video games.

In World of Warcraft
Blizzard pays homage to The Legend of Zelda through an NPC named Linkin (who is a gnome). Located in Ungoro crater, he shows a resemblance to classic Link and gives the player various quests to recover his memory after finding his equipment on a wrecked raft. The rewards include items resembling the Master Sword and boomerang.
