Revision as of 20:34, 7 June 2010

I heard once a rumor regarding whether or not you could enter Fado's house in Twilight Princess. I now understand that it's impossible, but it was a popular belief back in early 2007. I'll see if I can find enough information regarding this, then see if it can be covered in the article. --K2L 23:05, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

I remember that, sounds good. Here's something else. How about things popularly believed to be a myth, but are actually true. I recall back in the day, a lot of people believed that the Hylian Loach was a myth in Ocarina of Time. Just spinning ideas here.User:Matt/sig 23:52, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
Although that would need to be included in a separate section, in order to differentiate them from actual hoaxes. BTW, after a bit of researching, I could find some interesting information in regards of Fado's house, so I guess I can put a section about that. --K2L 00:05, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
Ha, reminds me so much of that show Mythbusters. Perhaps we can have that whole Busted and Confirmed system that they have.User:Matt/sig 00:23, June 3, 2010 (UTC)
Here are some more that other folks might want to elaborate on:
  1. Unfreezing Zora's Domain in OoT
  2. Obtaining the Triforce in OoT
  3. The Sky Temple (hah!)
  4. The Odyssey of Hyrule mentions something about a pyramid in the Haunted Wasteland, but I had never heard of that: link, last paragraph
  5. Finding the Unicorn Fountain
That's all I could think of for now. Dany36 02:28, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Misleading Title

I saw this and was hoping it would be an article on actual Zelda mythos. Anyway, here's what I said in skype:

I could add so many to that, but the title sucks.... Back on NSider, we had a mythbusters type group, People wrote to us asking questions and we checked them out. Some of the funniest stuff came in too like:

"Hey guys, when I use the wishing well in LttP and it gives me a fortune of having "Terrible Luck", I always go get some more money and throw it in for a better outcome. I never knew if it did anything or not so I want you to find out for me."

The page title they have should reflect the out-of-universe style and fan generatedness of the subject: "Fan rumors and myths" or something. "Myths in LoZ" is misleading bc there's actual Zelda mythos. User:Axiomist/sig 20:34, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
