    The NES game over theme has a special place in my heart. For one, I was exposed to the game when I was a wee little baby back in 03 or 04, the Zora band leader in Majora's Mask shares my name and just so happens to be playing this song on his piano, and it's just a beautiful melody in general.

    @maytheprincessofhoenn619 3 года назад +17

    It's that funny feeling we get when having a goal of beating any Zelda game (or any game in particular) without dying ONCE, you screwed up royally and had to start over. One common example is the first part of the Champion's Ballad with the One-Hit Obliterator challenge and that one shrine "Start and Stop".
    But that one time I did not want to die was in the Pirate Stronghold (In Skyward Sword HD's Hero Mode) where a Beamos got me while trying to Perfect Shield the beam back. 😣💢

      Nah, I totally get it. It always stuck with me that, unlike in almost every game with a few exceptions, someone actually reacts to the Game Over scenario with text, as Linebeck cries out "W-w-we're going down!" when the ship starts sinking.

    6:37 Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks feel the most like…Haunting Game Overs to me
    Nintendo legit drew it out with the music and the camera on Link’s dead body like: “Yup, you just got this kid killed”
    And don’t even get me STARTED on the exploding boat and train.
    just Nintendo traumatizing us with the violent explosions and the fire, just letting us know that we got a kid completely engulfed in a fiery explosion as the boat slowly sinks into the water and the train just stands there, being on fire.
