The '''iQue Player''' is a Chinese-exclusive plug-and-play video game system, technically based on the [[Nintendo 64]] console, that was released in 2003. It was created as a joint venture between [[Nintendo]] and Dr. Wei Yin, founder of [[wikipedia:iQue|iQue Ltd.]], as a means to curb piracy in China. The console was built into a controller that resembled a [[Wikipedia:Dreamcast|Dreamcast]] controller. Players could purchase a central hub that allows them to play multiplayer, however. Games were purchased at a kiosk or from an online software called iQue@home (which requires a firmware update for the console that can only be found in the kiosks) and downloaded to a 64 MB cartridge that plugs into the controller. The system only had fourteen games available, one of which was {{OOT}}. {{MM}} was also slated for release on the iQue, but was canceled. Exact reasons for the cancellation are unknown.
'''Purdy''' (ピロロチャン, ''Piroro-chan'') is [[Hena]]'s pet cockatiel. She is found and can be spoken with in the building next to the [[Fishing Hole#Twilight Princess|fishing hole]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. Despite Hena's love for the bird (who constantly says how cute she is whenever she is examined by Link), Purdy constantly insults Hena by calling her "old". Purdy lives in a round cage on the counter in Hena's shop next to the fish tank. It is noted that unlike [[Coro]]'s bird, [[Trill]], and [[Iza]]'s bird, [[Plumm]], Purdy does not serve any in-game purpose outside of being Hena's pet. She is also the only pet bird who lives in a cage and likewise, cannot talk to Link in his wolf form, so its unknown weather Purdy's rudeness is intentional. Whenever Link knocks into the cage, Purdy gets even ruder and tells Link to vacate the premises whenever he comes close.
